Composer of Warhorse One
Johnny Strong composed and performed the score for Warhorse One himself, in addition to co-writing and co-directing the film alongside William Kaufman, and starring as Master Chief Richard Mirko.
The score is a moody, ambient soundscape built around droning synths and somber melodies rather than the sweeping orchestral style typical of big-budget war films — a reflection of the film’s independent, hands-on production. Strong is also a musician outside of film, having released solo music previously.
