Composer, producer, sound designer, and multi-instrumentalist Brian Reitzell combines his wide-ranging influences into evocative music that borrows the best from classical, avant-garde, indie rock, and more. Growing up in San Francisco, Reitzell listened to industrial pioneers such as Einstuerzende Neubaten, as well as Ennio Morricone, Steve Reich, and Philip Glass. He also served as Redd Kross' drummer during the '90s, first appearing on the band's 1993 album Phaseshifter. His first work as a music supervisor came later that decade, when director Sofia Coppola approached him to work on her 1999 film The Virgin Suicides. ~ Heather Phares
