Soundwaves: The Twits Original Motion Picture Soundtrack with Songs by David Byrne and Composer Oli Julian

Posted on 2025/10/18 by James

The Twits, soundtrack from the Netflix original film is available everywhere now. Composer Oli Julian brings his signature blend of wit, warmth, and orchestral inventiveness to Netflix’s The Twits, the first-ever feature adaptation of Roald Dahl’s classic tale. A lifelong fan of Dahl’s mischievous world, Julian approached the score with a sense of playful anarchy, capturing both the grotesque humor and heart of the story. His music bursts with character and imagination, fusing unexpected instruments like banjos, jaw harps, Balkan brass, and musical saws with lush orchestral and choral arrangements. The result is a delightfully chaotic and cinematic soundscape that mirrors the Twits’ topsy-turvy world—equal parts mischievous, magical, and unmistakably Dahl.

“Composed by Baltimore electronic musician Dan Deacon, Task’s score soars, it sizzles, it screeches, it screams. It’s an insanely overheated sonic signature for the show, making anything from fixing a morning coffee to brushing dead leaves off a porch sound like Oppenheimer waiting for the bomb to go off.  I love that for Task, personally.” – Decider
