If you love film music and want to dig into how it’s used for effects in different movies, then Sideways on Youtube is the channel for you.

My favorite of his many analyses is How Pixar Uses Music to Make You Cry, embedded below:

Sideways has also covered How to Train Your Dragon, The Matrix, Sweeney Todd, Into the Woods, Cats, and many others for the effects their soundtracks have on the viewer/listener (aka us).

Occasionally, Sideways includes specific learning topics in theory and ear training, but overall it’s mainly an analysis channel.

Definitely check them out. You won’t experience movie soundtracks the same way.
