Junkie XL

Tom Holkenborg became famous as Junkie XL in nineties electronic music. He moved into film working alongside Hans Zimmer on several blockbusters, and in 2015 the drums and guitars of Mad Max: Fury Road made him a name in his own right. Deadpool, Alita: Battle Angel, Sonic and Godzilla vs. Kong followed.

Style

Huge percussion, synthesisers and orchestra at full volume.

Awards

No major film awards: included for his very well-known work. Grammy nominee and twice nominated for the Dutch Golden Calf.
