about Robert ToTeras

Philadelphia-born, New York-bred, Los Angeles-based, Robert ToTeras is one of the most versatile composers working in television and feature films. 

 

Forbes Magazine cited ToTeras’ “diverse portfolio” as one of the reasons “he stands out” amongst his peers. Robert is equally comfortable scoring a high-end docuseries, irreverent comedy or scripted drama.

 

Since 2013, Robert has scored TNT and Oxygen’s hit series Cold Justice produced by legendary Emmy-winning producer Dick Wolf. Cold Justice recently aired its 100th episode in 2023. 

 

Robert has also scored multiple shows for Netflix including the nominated series Sugar Rush (for which Robert won a 2020 BMI Award) and its spin-offs Sugar Rush: Christmas & Sugar High.

 

Current scores by Robert include the Discovery ID/MAX docuseries Let Us Prey: A Ministry of Scandals and the PBS documentary The Niagara Movement - The Early Battle for Civil Rights directed by Emmy winning, Academy Award Nominee Lawrence Hott.

Other projects scored by Robert have included TV series for NBC, CBS, TNT, Bravo and TeenNick, as well as documentaries for Showtime.

 

One of Robert’s songs “Break Out The Boom Boom”, became a viral sensation when it was used in a promo for the HBO series Girls. As a result, the song was profiled in over 50 publications, including E! Online who proclaimed the song “addictive” and Cosmopolitan who called it a “ra-ra anthem… which I want to play every time I walk into a room.”

 

In a previous life outside of Hollywood and music, Robert ToTeras spent three years as a professional blackjack gambler, and member of a card-counting team in Las Vegas. He has been politely escorted (by well-dressed security teams with earpieces) out of numerous and well-known gaming establishments.

Cold Justice turns 100. Meet the person behind its ‘suspense twang’ music.

“It was really a pleasure to do, and an honor to do. Most TV shows don’t actually help people—TV’s great, I’ve devoted my life to it,” ToTeras said. “But most TV shows don’t actually help people in the real world, and I happen to work for one that does. That’s sort of amazing.”
