Blitz//Berlin is a trio of Canadian composers based in Los Angeles, California. They are known for composing the music to Blade Runner 2036: Nexus Dawn and Jordan Peele's Scare Tactics, as well as numerous feature films and trailers.

Born and raised in Victoria, British Columbia, high school friends Martin Macphail, Dean Rode, and Tristan Tarr began their film composing career in Toronto, Ontario, in 2014. The group relocated to Los Angeles, California in 2018.

The trio first achieved international recognition in 2016 for their award winning song "Surfboard Fire" composed for the official trailer for The Girl on the Train, featuring a sample of Kanye West's "Heartless". Soon after, Blitz//Berlin composed the original scores to the critically acclaimed feature films The Void and Still/Born. Additionally, their continued trailer work includes Top Gun: Maverick, House Of The Dragon, Alien: Earth, and many others.

In 2021, Blitz//Berlin won the Juno Award for Instrumental album of the year for their album Movements III.
