You wait for more Series 11 information and suddenly stuff appears all at once. After the unfortunate leak of the clip and images yesterday, we got some official news revealing that Segun Akinola will do the new music for Doctor Who.
I handn't heard of Segun Akinola before now but I know that he was part o the BAFTA Breakthrough Brit program. He has also scored programs including Black and British: A Forgotten History, The Human Body: Secrets of your life Revealed and BHS:How did it Happen?
Many people will be listening to the music his website to get an idea but its difficult at this stage to know what he'll do for Doctor Who. It's more of a family orientated program than some of the previous things he's done. The mmusic on his site seems instrumental rather than synth but he might go in a different direction for Doctor Who.
I have never stopped liking Murray Gold's music. Over the years he has remained a good composer as shown by his recent music for A Very English Scandal but it will be interesting to get a fresh musical voice.
