Music: Cliff Martinez

I first discovered the work of Cliff Martinez when I saw Drive in a theater in 2011. The music paired perfectly with the film, and I instantly sought out the soundtrack. As much as I enjoyed the tracks by Kavinsky, College & Electric Youth and The Chromatics, the score by Martinez was the real draw for me.



That same year, the film Contagion was released, featuring music again by Martinez, this time for frequent collaborator Steven Soderbergh. The next year The Company You Keep and later another Soderbergh collaboration, The Knick, all featured excellent scores that have been added to my writing playlist.
