Luke Cage - Original Soundtrack

Adrian Younge

The composer expertly builds a mood that recalls a vintage blaxploitation film. He incorporates unease and grit within every composition, effectively mirroring the street-level environment of Harlem found in the show.

Dark, analog tones form the basis of the work, utilizing old synthesizers, actual musicianship, and soulful funk elements. The recording evokes a raw, cinematic power that honors the golden age of film music while keeping a contemporary, threatening edge.
