Legend alert! Our latest guest on Soundtracking is not only the lead guitarist, keyboardist and instrumentalist of one of the greatest bands on planet Earth, but has also transitioned with huge success into the realms of movie scoring.

Jonny Greenwood has formed a formidable partnership with Paul Thomas Anderson since providing the music for There Will Be Blood, and has also worked with Lynne Ramsay, Pablo Larrain and Jane Campion - who are esteemed company indeed. He's also one of the most understated and humble people you could ever wish to meet.

We'll get into his collaborations with all these great filmmakers during the course of the conversation, and sprinkle plenty of his music throughout.
