“[‘Scandal’ creator Shonda Rhimes] really wanted to focus on soul, R&B [and] funk — real vintage songs from the era, both hits [and] undiscovered gems. I feel like this is a really underutilized genre in contemporary network television.”
GRAMMY-nominated music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas on the music behind the TV series Scandal (via recordingacademy)
It's not about what or who. It's about when.
For me, music has never been about buzz or radio adds or thenextbigthing. Although, I know that’s how much of the world discovers music. I acknowledge that.
For me, it’s always been about timing. When your musical (brace yourself) soul is vulnerable. When lyrics can sear right through your toughest parts and light up. When a melody fishhooks you into a spin cycle of particular brand of “we are on top of the world”.
It doesn’t matter if everyone has been talking about them. Talking is different from feeling.
So what does that mean for bands, for musicians?
It makes me miss having TV, a little. I reveled in the puzzle pieces that were commercials or brands and the music that captured just the right feeling. The ending credits on Grey’s Anatomy last week. The first few seconds of the Canon commercial that sounded like Spring. That space in between intro and first lyric that felt like the loveliest lull of a nap.
I want to connect the music and the lyrics to the words and the pictures and I want everyone to have a soundtrack for those big moments in their lives.
You shouldn’t be without a soundtrack.
Tell me and I’ll listen for you.

Her Name Is : TOTEMO Okay, so you never heard of Totemo before, but she’s a big deal back in Israel, and all you need to do is push ‘play’ (along with a peek of the video) of R…
The extraordinary component of Totemo’s music – Rotem Or simply creates pure beauty.
(via Funk Music Essentials :: PGS Sync Sampler)
Groovy, retro & soulful. Gritty street funk, all with fat bass lines and loads of funky, vocal and instrumental groove. A playlist of both contemporary and obscure classics but also pearls to be urgently discovered by the beginners!
During season three of ABC’s hit show Scandal, a montage scene closes out the eighth episode, “Vermont Is for Lovers, Too,” where we see a gruesome murder. Then one of the show’s main characters, Huck (Guillermo Diaz), insinuates he’s going to torture his colleague Quinn (Katie Lowes), and Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington) sees her long-lost mother moments before the credits flash.
Great music supervision when music pulls things from visual unapparent otherwise.
Aziz Ansari on the Music of "Master of None": Father John Misty, Aphex Twin, Arthur Russell, and More
On using Toto’s “Africa”: “The Toto people were like, ‘Do they genuinely like this song or are they making fun of Toto?’ We were like, 'No, we love this song! Please, Toto. Why do you have such low self esteem?’”
By Jeremy Gordon
“Master of None”’s music selections are prolific and distinctive, featuring tracks by Aphex Twin, the Animals, the Slits, Arthur Russell, Lou Reed, New Edition, Spandau Ballet, and more. (You can find a soundtrack playlist here.) There’s one episode that’s entirely set to country music, as Dev and a love interest take a weekend trip to Nashville. There’s another where he invites a date to a Father John Misty show, where Josh Tillman runs through “Chateau Lobby #4”.
To discuss the show’s music, Pitchfork hopped on the phone with Ansari and music supervisor Zach Cowie.
Pitchfork: Some of the picks are a little more on-the-nose—"Cheating" by the Animals scores an episode about cheating.
AA: Zach and I were both sensitive to using stuff that’s on-the-nose, but I think the vibe of the song ultimately trumps everything. There’s an episode when we use that Arthur Russell song “A Little Lost"—obviously that’s kind of on-the-nose but I think it’s also, for both of us, one of our favorite songs ever. When we started the show we were like, ‘Oh, we gotta use that song somewhere,’ and that was even before we decided on having a different theme song every episode. Did you see the first episode without any music or anything, Zach, is that what you saw when we talked the first time?
ZC: No, I started with the scripts.
AA: But we talked a lot about Arthur Russell. We almost named the show “A Little Lost” but then we decided not to.
ZC: He’s huge for both of us. Arthur Russell’s music, and Serge Gainsbourg’s music, were really strong through-lines for everybody that worked on this show in terms of getting some unity in the vibe.
Pitchfork: What draws you to both of their music?
ZC: [Russell] made so much stuff that there’s a perfect thing from him for just about every moment. Actually, Serge Gainsbourg is kind of the same. Both those guys, their music is always distinctly theirs, no matter what kind of style or sound they’re morphing into.
AA: The challenge was: How do you craft a sound for a show that’s not been done before? The go-to is jazz—I think that’s what Woody Allen uses and “Louie” has jazz stuff. It’s tough—jazz works really well, it’s quiet, it doesn’t get in the way of the scenes, but what can you do that’s different if you want to push yourself to do something different.
Pitchfork: One episode, about the different acting roles for men and women, is explicitly feminist. You’ve got music from X-Ray Spex and the Slits in there; you’ve also got a scene where a woman walks home with the Halloween theme playing as she’s pursued, while we see the guys walking home to “Don’t Worry, Be Happy”.
AA: To me, that’s the best horror movie score I could think of. Then, I was trying to think of the dumbest songs I could play. “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” is pretty stupid.
That scene—it’s really crazy how much it’s made by the music. That was a tough scene because it’s a dark scene that’s happening. To be able to get the humor out of it, the music really is what kind of helps sell that scene in a lot of ways. Even the little thing like when that one guy grabs the door and you hear that [high pitched noise] –that little thing is from Halloween too. All those little flourishes help that scene work. It’s a woman getting followed by this creepy guy, so the music actually really helps.
ZC: It was really tough for us to choose the Slits and X-Ray Spex, because we had a really long list of their contemporaries that we loved. That was kind of the funny thing, between the two of us we had too many ideas. That’s something that became a big challenge with this show, to find the perfect one out of a very long list, because we both are just massive music freaks.

Hardcore rap and rock songs show that tech nerds aren't just "vanilla," says music supervisor Rudy Chung.
These guys do a great job creating a unique musical environment for this series.
Helsinki based pop artist Lyel creates pop perfection with a beat driven ballad titled Shadow. The track brimming with solid synths and confident strong vocals will definitely make her voice and presence well known to listeners. Check the track out above!
feel good, empowering indie!!!

The 70 Best Musical Moments on TV
Thomas Golubić. Alex Patsavas. Andrew Charles Kahn. Gary Calamar. These are the people who helped craft the Don Drapers and Tony Sopranos of our golden TV age, but they don’t often get their due. Music Supervisors are the men and women behind the curtains; they are the reason you go to explain that perfect scene to a friend, but give up describing it after a few details because, “you just have to see it.” Often, what we really mean is “you just have to hear it.” And even before the golden age, there was excellent TV with strong themes, poignant messages, and unforgettable dance moves highlighted by the great music that made some of our favorite scenes so memorable. Here are our picks for the 70 Greatest Musical Moments in Television. This list does not include theme songs (except for one major exception, because we just had to), or performances by musicians on TV shows. (Warning: some of these blurbs contain spoilers.)
Check out the actual list at Paste Magazine, we sure as heck did! And congratulations to all the talented folks that make the list.
