Utopía: tres motivos por los que verla, España Posted on September 12, 2017November 3, 2021 “…La banda sonora de Utopia, compuesta por el chileno Cristobal Tapia De Veer, se sale de lo común en cuanto a estilo y a calidad: una vez la escuchas no puedes vivir sin ella.

The Crimson Petal and the White: episode four – season finale by Sarah Dempster, United Kingdom Posted on September 12, 2017May 3, 2019 “…There was the woozy, gauzy, brilliantly claustrophobic atmosphere – the product of Cristobal Tapia de Veer’s score and Marc Munden’s exceptional, stylish, unselfconscious direction. This was an adult drama in every sense, and as complex and rewarding as anything the BBC has produced. In a nutshell: core…” Read the article here read more
Monday Morning Playlist: Soundtrackers Cristobal Tapia de Veer by David W. Valentin, United States Posted on September 12, 2017May 3, 2019 “…He’s been a longtime favorite for us at AE35 Media.

Utopía por Juan Sangrós, España Posted on September 12, 2017November 3, 2021 “…El complemento perfecto para una serie extraña sobre un mundo extraño es una banda sonora extraña.

‘Humans’ doubles down on Synths, interview by Mike Ayers, U.S. Posted on September 12, 2017May 3, 2019 “…For “Humans,” the overarching goal is to make the music askew the stereotypical cold, sci-fi sounds usually associated with the genre… The music often creates an eerie ambiance for the human-to-human and human-to-synth interactions.Tapia de Veer’s compositions aim to tap into that aspect of the story. “I don’t really know what to call the sound […] read more
The Crimson Petal and the White, final episode, review by Benji Wilson, United Kingdom Posted on September 12, 2017May 3, 2019 “…the composer, Cristobal Tapia de Veer, set out to subvert – he welded the squelchings and rumblings of modern electronica to a tableau from the 1870s in the way that Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood did in his score for There Will Be Blood…” Read the article here read more
UTOPIA – 1ª TEMPORADA, Caio Vianna , Brasil Posted on September 12, 2017November 3, 2021 “…Cristobal Tapia de Veer, o compositor da trilha original da série, completa o círculo técnico criando uma das melhores músicas que pude ouvir nesses últimos anos. Nervosa, inquietante e extremamente arraigada aos intentos do show, as faixas de Veer transportam para os notas aquilo que a cinematografia faz com as imagens. A teoria de conspiração […] read more
Diegósoto, España Posted on September 12, 2017November 3, 2021 “…Y por último y de nuevo con un papel protagonista a más no poder, nos encontramos con la alucinante banda sonora del músico Cristobal Tapia de Veer.

‘Humans’ Season 1 soundtrack album review: Wistful, exhilarating and terrifying, 4/5 stars Posted on July 31, 2015August 22, 2020 Is there such a thing as melancholic electronica? ‘Melanctonica’? If there isn’t already then Cristobal Tapia de Veer just invented it with the soundtrack to Channel 4’s huge summer hit, Humans (ahh, remember when we were all sweating Pimms and wondering what Colin Morgan’s character Leo was?). And if you watched the show or were a fan of his […] read more
