Morvern Callar - Goon Gumpas by Aphex Twin: Whimsical, simple, generous ear candy.
Scarface - Tony's Theme by Giorgio Moroder: Oh the drama! I challenge you to water your plants in the nude with this track blaring. If you survive you will attain higher consciousness.
Eighth Grade - Being Yourself by Anna Meredith: Crystal clear production. Listen to the kick drum in the end section; how it transforms from hard to soft.
The Knick - Son of Placenta previa by Cliff Martinez: I love how this piece is counterintuitive to the show's historical setting. Yet the synth cuts so deep!
Liquid Sky - Margaret's Apartment by Slava Tsukerman: No one will ever be this cool again.
Under The Skin - Love by Mica Levi: Tender... Prey!
Good Time - Connie by Oneohtrixpoint Never: BOLD! Crammed with ideas and a slammed limiter on the master fader.
Candyman - All Falls Apart - Philip Glass: The master of arpeggiated themes - the simpler, less orchestral work stands out for me.
Tron - End of line by Daft Punk: How can Daft Punk practically own the kick/snare one two?
