About me
Dominic Glynn’s latest big-screen work is the score for Anthony Baxter’s BAFTA-winning documentary feature film Eye of the Storm, but his career began back in 1986 when he became one of the few people to arrange the theme tune to the classic TV series Doctor Who. He reworked the famous theme that accompanied Colin Baker's Doctor, and composed incidental music for the series throughout the late 1980s.
His work on the show includes “The Trial of a Timelord” with its epic opening sequence from episode one, “Dragonfire”, “The Happiness Patrol”, and “Survival”. As one of Britain’s most prolific composers of production music, his work can be heard in hundreds of films and TV productions, as diverse as The Simpsons, Red Dwarf, Marvel’s Runaways, and Homeland and in movies, radio, podcasts and commercials around the world. In the last thirty years he has written regularly for Universal, BMG, Warner Chappell and Zone Music libraries, amongst others.
In the 1990s and 2000s Dominic had a parallel career in underground techno and electronic dance music, while producing music for video games, short films, TV and radio. In 2023 his composition “The Sheltering Sky” became part of the Trinity College syllabus for Grade 2 Piano.
Dominic composed the full score for the films A Dangerous Game, You’ve Been Trumped Too, and Flint: Who Can You Trust? as well as soundtrack music to the radio revival of the famous Blake's 7 sci-fi series broadcast on BBC 4 Extra. Other recent broadcast work includes two documentaries for Channel 4 and contributions to the hit BBC series Episodes. The new BBC Sounds podcast Trumped features original music by Dominic.
