ComingSoon spoke with Ahsoka composers Kevin Kiner, Deana Kiner, and Sean Kiner about composing for the Star Wars series.
. I got a call that they were doing this and that I was one of the people auditioning. I believe there were either four or five people that were called to do this, so they flew me up to Skywalker Ranch. I didn’t meet with George for that first time — I met with Dave Filoni and they showed me the first 10 minutes of what would later become the movie. It was not always planned to be a movie. It was just planned to be Episode 1 of The Clone Wars. He said, “There you go.
You mentioned that George didn’t want the John Williams themes to be too prevalent. Is it more challenging to honor the sound of Star Wars and the melody of it while still creating your own music in that universe than it is to just do completely original work? What’s that process like?Absolutely more challenging. I’ve been doing this a long time — 2006 is a few years ago. [Laughs]. So now, it’s more natural. If you dribble a basketball every day, you get pretty good at dribbling.
Kevin, you mentioned George Lucas and Dave Filoni a few times. What’s it been like, over the years, to work with George and Dave? Has that relationship just continued to grow over the years?Yeah. So first of all, I think Dave and I are the only two people to study under Yoda, and it’s pretty cool that we have that DNA going through us. Dave and I have a connection that’s difficult to describe. It’s I almost like finishing each others’ sentences when we’re talking about music.
