Okay, so, this is the third Michael Giacchino cover story we've had in the past two years...actually a little under two years. But what can we say? He’s on a roll. It's more than a roll, really. Take this summer, for example: Star Trek, Pixar’s Up, and Land of the Lost. Those will all be in theatres at the same time. Most composers would be ecstatic to have one of those in a summer.

We tracked Michael down during a break from a mixing session to get the lowdown on all he’s doing, starting this issue with Star Trek. Next issue, we'll get into Up and Land of the Lost.

Have a listen to Part 1 of Michael Giacchino’s Endless Summer!
