Milan Records today releases the \"\"<\/a>first of new music from Apple TV\u2019s highly anticipated drama PLURIBUS, the new science fiction series from Breaking Bad creator and Better Call Saul co-creator Vince Gilligan. Available everywhere now is the series\u2019 main title theme by acclaimed composer DAVE PORTER as well as an original cover by Turkish singer MURAT EVGIN of \u201cNobody Told Me\u201d written by John Lennon. The project reunites creator Vince Gilligan with composer Dave Porter and music supervisor Thomas Golubi\u0107 following their creative collaborations on both Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. For the project, Thomas Golubi\u0107 was tasked with sourcing a series of cross-cultural covers and songs performed by artists from across the globe, with each song serving as distinct episodic end credit themes. Today\u2019s release will be followed by a series of individual single releases for the featured songs as well as two albums of score music by Dave Porter. Starring Rhea Seehorn, who earned two Emmy nominations for her acclaimed performance in Better Call Saul, Pluribus makes its global debut on Apple TV today, with its first two episodes available now \u2013 watch here<\/a>.    <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Of the series\u2019 music, VINCE GILLIGAN says, \u201cHaving collaborated with them now for nearly two decades, Dave Porter and Thomas Golubi\u0107 continue to surprise and delight me. Their artistry increases each year, as does their enthusiasm. I can\u2019t imagine doing a show without them.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When we started talking about Pluribus, we knew it would have a global scope. But how could we express that musically? Apple TV, God bless them, encouraged us to take bigger swings than we\u2019d ever taken before. For the first time, Dave was able to have his compositions performed by a symphony orchestra and full choir. And Thomas was able to commission the creation of songs by artists all over the world. What a step up that is from only being able to license existing recordings!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Apple\u2019s generosity has been put to magnificent use. I couldn\u2019t be more impressed by Dave\u2019s and Thomas\u2019 efforts this season. It may be their best work yet, and I\u2019m excited for you to hear it.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Of the score, composer DAVE PORTER says, \u201cI\u2019ve been so fortunate to collaborate with Vince Gilligan on all of his incredible projects, but Pluribus is special in that it is the first time since the pilot of Breaking Bad that we\u2019ve had the opportunity to create an entirely new world to explore.  For me, this was an exciting chance to take all that we have learned working together down to the studs and create an entirely new musical landscape that is uniquely Pluribus.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, speaking of the series\u2019 featured songs, music supervisor THOMAS GOLUBI\u0106 says, \u201cCreating international covers of recognizable pop songs was our idea for the closing of each episode of Pluribus. Once we explored the concepts in the series and saw a parallel to themes of revolution and enlightenment in the counter-culture anthems from the late 1960s and 1970s, music coordinator Olivia Schlichting and I reached out to some of our favorite non-English language artists and paired them with songs that resonated creatively. We are delighted with these very unique and inspired interpretations and are excited for our audience to discover them with each episode.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Finally, MURAT EVGIN says of his cover, \u201cAs a kid who had The Beatles posters on his walls in late \u201880s, I\u2019d never have imagined that one day I\u2019d sing a John Lennon song in Turkish and hear it in Vince Gilligan\u2019s show thanks to Thomas Golubi\u0107. It was a big responsibility to translate the lyrics of my childhood hero into Turkish and joy to add ethnic instruments from my country to \u2018Nobody Told Me.\u2019 I guess life is really what happens to us while we\u2019re busy making other plans, as John once said.<\/p>\n

ABOUT DAVE PORTER<\/p>\n

Dave Porter is a Los Angeles based composer for film and television. He began his classical musical training at the piano at age five, but it was his interest in electronic music as a teen that led him to start composing his own music. He studied both classical and electronic music composition at Sarah Lawrence College under John Yannelli and started his professional career as an assistant in Philip Glass\u2019 recording studio in New York City.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dave is perhaps best known for his enduring creative relationship with one of Hollywood\u2019s most respected figures \u2013 Vince Gilligan. Since the remarkable pilot episode of Breaking Bad in 2007, Dave has written the original music for all of Gilligan\u2019s projects. He scored all 62 episodes of that groundbreaking series and created its iconic opening theme. Actor\/Producer Bryan Cranston stated: \u201cWith his music, Dave Porter has created another character for Breaking Bad. Evocative and meaningful, Dave\u2019s work is an essential part of the storytelling.\u201d Since then, Dave has also been behind all of the original music for Breaking Bad\u2019s equally acclaimed spin-off, Better Call Saul, and helped bring the Breaking Bad universe to the big screen with his original score to Gilligan\u2019s feature film El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2024 kicked off a new chapter in Dave’s career — his first collaboration with Marvel Studios, Echo, is streaming now on Disney+.  The first project to be released under the new Marvel Spotlight banner, it was also the first Marvel series with a TV-MA rating. “The Marvel team made me feel at home right away and have created a television series full of all of the hallmarks that inspire me — real stakes, emotions, consequences, and a world in which all of the characters are always learning and evolving,\u201d said Porter on his collaboration with Marvel.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Other credits in recent years include working with James Franco on his masterful film The Disaster Artist and collaborating with documentary visionary RJ Cutler on Murf The Surf, a 4-part series produced by Brian Grazer and Ron Howard.  He also loved working with creator\/showrunner Rebecca Cutter on her groundbreaking Starz series Hightown, as well as AMC\u2019s boundary-defying series Preacher \u2013 produced by Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg and Sam Catlin.  Dave also recently wrapped up a decade-long run as composer for the James Spader crime thriller series The Blacklist, one of the most successful television dramas of all time spanning more than 200 episodes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dave has twice been awarded ASCAP\u2019s Composer\u2019s Choice Award for Best Television Composer \u2014 at the inaugural event for the award in 2013, and once again in 2017. He was also bestowed the 2019 Citation Award by his alma mater Sarah Lawrence College for his creative achievements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
