Segun Akinola Appreciation Post (startrek.website)

I like Murray Gold. I feel like everyone likes Murray Gold.

But part of me was disappointed when it was announced he was returning to DW. I thought Segun Akinola's work during the Chibnall era added a unique...otherworldliness to the score. It was incredibly atmospheric (perhaps at the expense of seeming "musical"), and there are times I miss that.

The incidental music during Thirteen’s run was a little too much like video game ambience loops for my taste.

That's a fair comment - I have thought the same thing, though perhaps in a more positive way. It's almost like playing Metal Gear Solid or something.
