About Roger Suen: A Southern California native, Roger Suen studied music composition at the undergraduate and graduate levels at UCLA and CSUN. He is now a prolific film composer, residing in Los Angeles.
Roger’s work exemplifies both breadth and depth. Through a mastery of orchestral composition and modern electronica, his music creates the heart-pounding scores of such action films as X-Men: Apocalypse, Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials, X-Men: Days of Future Past, and Netflix’s Daredevil, while also excelling at a diverse array of genres. Suen writes for the unique requirements of epic video game scoring—including recent work on EA’s 2017 Mass Effect: Andromeda and an upcoming title from Marvel & Sony Interactive Entertainment—as well as comedy and drama.
His versatility is apparent in the 2015 comedies The Nice Guys(starring Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling) and The Ridiculous 6 (with Adam Sandler and Luke Wilson). Suen’s compositions seamlessly navigate groovy funk, Copland-esq Americana, and wild banjo pickings, all without missing a beat, to underscore the films’ hilarious misadventures.
Recently, Roger collaborated on a highly-anticipated Netflix & Marvel Original Series. The mini-series features an action-packed orchestral score infused with authentic Japanese kabuki and taiko drumming. Likewise, Suen scored the 2017 Sundance award-winning film, Gook. A powerful drama, which explores race relations during the 1992 LA Riots, demonstrates an intimately atypical ensemble of solo instruments, embodying the sensitivity with which Roger tackles social and cultural issues in his work.
