Fil Eisler
This week, I had the chance to catch up with our old friend Fil Eisler – aka, the artist formally known as iZLER… ;) – to talk about his recently released soundtrack album from the hit E4 TV show Revenge. The album contains music from seasons 1 & 2, which is performed by the 50-piece orchestra Fil conducts each week for the show. Eisler’s music has become such an integral part of Revenge, with his beautifully dark and complex compositions adding layers of texture to the drama.
We also discuss his up-coming work on Arnold Schwarzenegger & James Cameron produced ‘Years Of Living Dangerously’ documentary, and new CBS show ‘Reckless’, plus his work on Revenge Season 3.
Fil Eisler is Czech-born and English-raised composer who started his career as a touring musician. He’s traveled, recorded and written with artist such as Robbie Williams, Kylie Minogue and Dave Stewart. Along with Revenge, Fil also currently scores the US version of Shameless.
Revenge, Season 3 should be returning to the UK in January 2014 on E4 (check here for the latest info).
The Revenge Original Soundtrack is available here from Amazon.
