​Robert Lydecker is an Emmy-nominated composer. He recently scored the second season of Iron Fist for Marvel/Netflix and the second and third seasons of the Lethal Weapon series (Fox / Warner Bros).  Lydecker co-scored two seasons of ABC’s Designated Survivor alongside Sean Callery, and co-composed the score for the Paramount film xXx: Return of Xander Cage with Brian Tyler.  Lydecker and Tyler also scored four seasons of the Fox series Sleepy Hollow, earning an Emmy Nomination for their main title theme.

Lydecker has also contributed music to film and game projects such as Avengers II: Age of Ultron, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Iron Man 3, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, The Expendables II & III, Olympus Has Fallen, SMITE, Rogue Company, and The Crazies.  He penned the theme for PBS’s Just Seen It.

In the realm of VR, Lydecker collaborated with New Deal studios on Kaiju Fury, set in the world of Pacific Rim. A few years later, he created the music for the Wonder Buffalo VR experience which debuted at Sundance and SXSW.

As a kid, Lydecker loved drawing, the outdoors, and making costumes and stories with his sister.  He tried writing a screenplay in elementary school and learned the fundamentals of music at his family’s congregational church. As his explorations of music widened, he dove into the world of orchestral sounds, while at the same time, spent his weekends going to punk shows and playing drums.

Outside of film music, Lydecker has written concert music for the ensemble FiveByFive, makes beats and instrumentals of all styles, and plays in a band with friends.  He regularly spends time doing habitat restoration and spent many years cooking and serving free food with Food Not Bombs in downtown LA at Pershing Square, Skid Row, and Exposition Park.

Lydecker enjoys creative variety, meaningful collaborations, and hopes he can make the world a better place.
