‘Andor’ Composer Nicholas Britell Shares Episodes 1-3 Main Title Themes
The music tracks for the main titles of Star Wars: Andor episodes 1 through 3 have been shared by composer Nicholas Britell on Spotify and YouTube.
In keeping with tradition, Disney and Lucasfilm have shared (some of) the music from their latest show as it debuted on Disney Plus. Renowned composer Nicholas Britell (Moonlight, Succession) has dropped the pieces that spearhead his work on Andor episodes 1, 2, and 3. You can listen to them below:
One of the most striking elements of the series’ three-episode debut was perhaps the original score, which is reminiscent of Blade Runner (especially in these tracks) and also channels a varied landscape of sounds from unusual places and through distinct styles. After Ludwig Göransson opened a new door for Star Wars soundtracks with his stellar (and highly varied) work for The Mandalorian, Joseph Shirley picked up the baton in The Book of Boba Fett and did some experiments of his own. Obi-Wan Kenobi sounded more classical for obvious reasons and even packed a main theme by Star Wars maestro John Williams. Now, Andor aims to deliver something unique and exciting with its music too.
Expect more of the show’s original score to drop in the coming days and weeks, as today’s three-episode premiere is just the beginning of rebellion.
