KARYN RACHTMAN (Executive Music Producer) is one of the most sought after independent Music Supervisors in the industry. She considers herself incredibly lucky to have worked on some of the best films of our time, including “Boogie Nights,” “Bulworth,” “Clueless,” “Desperado,” “Reality Bites,” “Get Shorty,” “Grace of my Heart,” “Pulp Fiction,” “Reservoir Dogs,” “Laurel Canyon” and “Holes.”
In 1994, after years of working as an independent Music Supervisor Rachtman decided to accept an offer from Capitol Records to become the Vice President of Soundtrack and A&R. She then left her post at Capitol to spearhead a new soundtrack division at Interscope Records. There, among others, she produced the soundtrack for Nickelodeon's feature film “Rugrats: The Movie,” setting a new standard for children's movie soundtracks. While at Interscope, Rachtman also acquired the rights and oversaw a number of other soundtracks, including Mike Judge's “Office Space” and Baz Lurhman's “Moulin Rouge.”
Rachtman took a year off from the world of music in film to pursue her belief that music can not only inspire today's youth, but also encourage and teach children. With this idea, she created the series “Hip Kid Hop,” in which the likes of LL Cool J, Doug E. Fresh, Shaggy and Common wrote children's books and recorded an accompanying CD single, thereby teaching kids a valuable life lesson while promoting reading as they “read and rap-a-long.” The series distributed by Scholastic, Inc. through out the world has great success and much critical acclaim.
