Description

Music Director's notes: "When I started working on Episode 3, I knew right away that I wanted to do something special for this episode’s finale. Not only is Ms. Waxman’s heroic entrance the pinnacle of cool, but the scene was also a huge turning point in our story, and we needed the music to match that. The music was almost finished, but I felt it needed something extra. To make this happen, I asked Tom Strahle to record some passages on a bunch of string instruments. We didn’t get to try all the crazy instruments he has, but we experimented with quite a few! I gave him a simple brief: “Here’s my basic idea, go wild!” And he absolutely nailed it. I already used a variety of string instruments many times in the score, from 12-string guitars to Irish bouzoukis, and our goal here was to bring them all together and blend them into a rich, acoustic texture that serves almost like a percussion layer. We then mixed his recordings with The Budapest Scoring Orchestra's beautiful performance, creating a wild and groovy track that ends our episode with the perfect cliffhanger. Huge thanks to my amazing music team and Atrium Animation. Stay tuned for more! "
