to Kevin Kiner for the music. They obviously made the Siege of Mandalorian arc as a four part movie to end the series, not just a regular arc, and everything is stepped up to feature film quality. The music is flat out amazing though - his mixing of classic John Williams themes along with what he built for this show has been so impressive.

Quick example - at the beginning when Anakin helps Kenobi against the droid army, Kiner scored an updated version of the music from Return of the Jedi when Luke was about to attack everyone on Jabba’s barge above the Sarlac pit. The scenes are a complete parallel of each other - same music playing as the tension builds, and in both cases it’s R2-D2 ready to spring the trap helping out Luke/Anakin.
