Welcome to SVTFOE Music Analyses!

In October of 2014, a young composer, Brian H. Kim, (a Yale graduate and an assistant to composer John Swihart to some shows like How I Met Your Mother and Switched at Birth), has started writing the musical score for a Disney animated series called Star vs. the Forces of Evil.

I love the show so much along with the background music. 

How do I describe it? 

I like how Brian creates different leitmotifs (short musical themes for the characters). And I also like how he sometimes uses the technique of mickey mousing (syncing the music to the right specific action you see on screen.) It also captures the tone “perfectly” and I like when he decides when it’s right to add or not to add music to any scene he watches in a spotting session. 

I just like to say to Brian H. Kim himself, keep making music and keep making our fans excited, happy, and even sad at some times.

Now, I decided to run this blog showing every musical moment from the show. From choice of tempo to choice of instruments and synthesizers, this blog will take on an awesome cohesive musical journey. I hope you enjoy SVTFOE Music Analyses.
