John Dragonetti is an artist-turned-composer who won BMI\u2019s streaming series award for the documentary The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez<\/strong>, directed by Brian Knappenberger. With a score hauntingly textured by the London Contemporary Orchestra, the show was one of Netflix\u2019s most watched documentaries of 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2021, he collaborated once again with Knappenberger, scoring Turning Point – 9\/11 and the War on Terror<\/strong>, which was released to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the war in Afghanistan and World Trade Center attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His latest project, Web of Make Believe <\/strong>(From Oscar-winning executive producers Ron Howard and Brian Grazer) is a six-part anthology series on Netflix that tells harrowing true stories of the internet age. The score shifts from the atmospheric orchestral tones of the past two projects and explores a darker, harder hitting electronic palette – combining organic sampled found sounds (broken pianos, strings and metal fans) with spaced out Doctor Who inspired synthesizers and 808\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His other film credits include Eva Vive\u2019s All About Nina <\/strong>starring Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Common, Doug Pray\u2019s classic documentary Surfwise<\/strong>, as well as The Internet\u2019s Own Boy <\/strong>and We Are Legion<\/strong>, both with Knappenberger. Television scores include FX\u2019s Hysterical <\/strong>and Married<\/strong>, Apple TV\u2019s Home<\/strong>, and AMC\u2019s Small Town Security<\/strong>. John also assisted composer, and Pixie\u2019s guitarist, Joey Santiago on the first season of Weeds.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still an active songwriter and music producer, John is a founding member (along with Blake Hazard) of the band The Submarines<\/strong>. The group released three critically acclaimed albums and toured internationally. Having indie hits with \u201cYou, Me & the Bourgeoisie\u201d and \u201c1940\u201d, their songs have been featured in Apple iPhone commercials and numerous films and television shows including The Good Place<\/strong>, Nick & Norah\u2019s Infinite<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Playlist<\/strong>, Weeds<\/strong>, Nip\/Tuck <\/strong>and Gray\u2019s Anatomy<\/strong>. Dragonetti\u2019s other album projects include Jack Drag<\/strong>. The album 2018 features Aimee Mann and Sarah Martin (Belle & Sebastian).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Born in the States, but raised in Cairo, Dubai and Cyprus; John\u2019s love of film and experimental music, with its creative challenges outside the structures of pop music, eventually led him to Los Angeles where he currently resides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cJohn\u2019s music is an explosion of musicality that lands us – poignantly – in the sweet spot of this age of chaotic misinformation. Experimental but familiar, it is a drumbeat for humans searching for truth in the technological whirlwind. – Dir. Brian Knappenberger (Web of Make Believe\/ The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
