With a blend of edgy and symphonic sounds, Zimmer is known for incorporating electronic music into his orchestral arrangements. Creating songs that cut right to the core, his work is truly one of a kind.
Zimmer has composed music for over 150 films. Aside from his Disney projects, some of his most iconic creations include Gladiator, Inception, Interstellar, and my favorite, The Dark Knight Trilogy.
