Ep 21 - The Art of Impact: Max Legend on His Epic Score Trailer Music | Interview

In this episode of the Epic Score Podcast, Gabe Shadid sits down with longtime Epic Score composer Max Legend (Massimiliano Foti) to discuss his journey from aspiring composer to established force in the trailer and production music world. Max recently completed his ninth album for Epic Score, Titan's Weapon, and shares the creative philosophy behind his signature sound: massive percussion, thematic composition and emotional storytelling. The conversation explores how Max transitioned from uploading music to YouTube and trailer music channels to working with respected companies such as Really Slow Motion and Epic Score. Along the way, he reflects on the importance of networking, the challenges of the early years when music generated little income, and the pivotal experiences that helped launch his professional career—including attending one of Hans Zimmer's first live concerts in London. Whether you're a composer, producer, trailer music fan, or simply curious about the creative process behind modern cinematic music, this episode offers an honest look at what it takes to build a career in the industry. 🎧 Subscribe to The Epic Score Podcast for in-depth conversations with the creators and executives shaping the sound of modern cinema.
