Tyler Bates is an American composer & music producer best known for his work on film scores, television series, and collaborations with iconic artists such as Marilyn Manson, Evanescence, Jerry Cantrell, Alexis Krauss, Mastodon, Bush, and In This Moment. With a career spanning over three decades, Bates has significantly influenced the sound of contemporary cinema and modern media.

His collaborations with directors such as Chad Stahelski, Zack Snyder, Ti West, Genndy Tartakovsky, and James Gunn have yielded critically acclaimed scores for blockbuster films, contributing to over a dozen number-one movies and generating several billion dollars in global box office revenue. From Rob Zombie’s The Devil’s Rejects to the stylized superhero chaos of Deadpool 2, Bates's range has made him a leading force in cinematic sound design.

Born in Los Angeles, California, Bates was raised in a musically rich environment. His mother introduced him to an eclectic range of styles, including classical, jazz, rock, and experimental music. Weekly trips to Tempo Records helped foster his lifelong love for music. He began playing the alto saxophone in school jazz and concert orchestras, then discovered a more profound passion for composing when he picked up the electric guitar at the age of 12. He instinctively began layering sounds using multiple cassette recorders, foreshadowing his future in music production and film scoring.
