Join us as we finally dive into an exposition of the force theme. We've been wanting to get into Tim's Master's Thesis and everything he uncovered with this theme for a long time - the wait is finally over!

Let us know your thoughts, and may the force be with you.

In this episode, we reflect on the news about Acolytes "canceled" season 2 now that we've had a few weeks to sort our thoughts. We talk about some highlights from the full soundtrack as well, but we really talk about where the fandom is at. Is the future of Star Wars bleak and at the whim of an angry fandom? Always in motion the future is...

Also, RIP James Earl Jones, we recorded this episode right before this news came out. We'll be sure to reflect on this next week.

May the force be with you all.

Happy SOMP Saturday you all. Come hang out with us as we catch up on all things D23 and other news - so much to speculate about and look forward to. Tim has finally gotten the chance to play Ashton’s favorite Star Wars game - Bounty Hunter! And it’s Ashton’s turn to grill Tim with a surprise SOMP game. Who wins? Are there too many of them? What are we going to do?

Until next time…may the force be with you.

Join us as we talk with the composer for so many things you’ve probably watched - Dan Schatzberg! It was so incredible to have a professional composer and jazz pianist on SOMP to talk with us. He answers so many of our questions (and lots of your fan questions!) about composing in the Star Wars universe, what it takes to write for a short film, and all about his collaborative approach as a professional composer.

This is a super fun one! Have an amazing SOMP Saturday you all and check out everyones work below. May the force be with you.

Bright Suns! Join us today as we tackle another fan question: “the basic idea on how a single person can be able to arrange for so many instruments.” Tim also surprises Ashton with a brand new game on the show! How does Ashton do? Will Tim be able to catch up next time?

Stay tuned for next weeks episode where we bring on a special guest composer to tackle some of your compositional questions with professional insight!

Have an amazing SOMP Saturday you all. May the force be with you.
