Black Mirror: San Junipero (Original Soundtrack) on CD

BLACK MIRROR is a sci-fi anthology series that explores a twisted, high-tech near-future where humanity's greatest innovations and darkest instincts collide. The series, which debuted in the UK in 2011 on Channel 4 came to Netflix for it's third season worldwide in 2016. Composed by Clint Mansell, the fourth episode, San Junipero, takes place in a seaside town in 1987. A shy young woman and an outgoing party girl strike up a powerful bond that seems to defy the laws of space and time. The score to San Junipero is a melancholic and nostalgic synth-orchestral ambience, which transcends the '80s setting of the show, interweaving forlorn strings, static-tinged electronica and beautifully washing orchestral pieces alike. Enticing and repeating melodies feature against a captivating backdrop of graceful strings, encapsulating the on-screen mood perfectly. Clint Mansell is well known for his previous work on PI, Requiem For A Dream, Moon and The Fountain for which he received a Golden Globe Nomination for Best Original Score. The art was lovingly designed by legendary Brazilian artist Billy The Butcher, known for his art pieces and illustrations based on the contemporary Pop Art movement.
