tomandandy To Score Resident Evil: Afterlife

You may have heard of them, you may not, but tomandandy have created original soundtracks for movies like The Hills Have Eyes and Killing Zoe as well as some TV commercials, now they’ve created an original, hybrid genre score for Resident Evil: Afterlife.

“Our mission for the Resident Evil: Afterlife score was to reinvent the sound of the Resident Evil saga,” said tomandandy. “At every turn, director Paul W. S. Anderson encouraged us to avoid cliché. He encouraged us to explore the edges of noise and modern sound synthesis. This was an amazing gift.”

Describing their creative process of composing a unique music score for Resident Evil: Afterlife, tomandandy explain, “We developed an aggressive palette of heavily distorted sounds and complex metric structures. At times the music is soft, gentle and airy, a fusion of organic sounds and electronics. Bracketing the music world with these two extremes: aggressive and distorted on one end and soft and dreamy on the other, we framed a palette, one with tremendous range.”
