A24 Podcast: Devonté Hynes (Blood Orange) and Thomas Bangalter (Daft Punk) at MCM's Vodcast Studio
We had the pleasure of hosting Devonté Hynes (Blood Orange) and Thomas Bangalter (Daft Punk) in our Manhattan vodcast studio for the latest episode of The A24 Podcast — a two-hour conversation between two composers about what it actually takes to score a film.
Per A24, the episode covers:
Devonté's cello score as the fifth lead in The Invite
Daft Punk working with an 85-piece orchestra on Tron: Legacy (also starring Olivia Wilde)
Finding the magic chemistry between strings and dialogue
Monophonic vs. polyphonic
A great note from a Disney executive
Extreme precision, and the true effort it takes to bring soul to synthesizers
Composing the Mythologies ballet score before the choreography existed
Random Access Memories being made like a film without cameras
The 250 tracks on Daft Punk's "Touch"
