atmosphere and space. There’s so much nuance when it comes to scoring to picture.
It’s more about what you leave out than what you leave in.“I had to let the voice of the actors do the talking but find ways of bringing out the emotion within that. I became completely obsessed with Tommy Shelby, I dreamt about him every night whilst I was working on the scores, I had to really inhabit the show.“There is a duality to the show, of beauty and brutality, which I had been exploring in my own music.
I’m fascinated by the manipulation of emotions with sound, it’s so mysterious. I really tried to explore this with Peaky Blinders, sometimes putting the opposite music than you would expect on a scene had the most impact.”The album also includes the previously released original songs ‘You’re Not God’ and the ‘Ain’t No Grave’ as well as Calvi’s cover of ‘Red Right Hand’, the Peaky Blinders theme song by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds.‘Black Tuesday’ is a new song from the forthcoming release that you can listen to here: Talking about the process of composing music for the show, Calvi added: “For Season
6 I wanted to bring more musicians on board for a fresh take, and I wanted to find a new musical voice for Tommy.
