Also in 2020 the Insects, in collaboration with composers Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow, comleted the score for DEVS\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>– an 8 part series for FX\/Hulu. The series was written and directed by Alex Garland<\/strong> (Annihilation & Ex Machina)<\/h4>\n

“The secret project at the core of “Devs” is one of those things that’s likely to stay with you and haunt you long after you’ve stopped watching. And that goes for the music, which is haunting and thrilling throughout – part “Twin Peaks,” part “2001: A Space Odyssey,” and sometimes, part Tuvan throat singing. The music, like Alex Garland’s story, is relatively unique, and I use that phrase grammatically because the main topic of “Devs” turns out to be relativity. It’s a thoughtful drama exploring quantum physics and predeterminatio<\/em>n. And how often do you get to see that on television?”<\/em> NPR. <\/a><\/span>Check out Hulu trailer here<\/span><\/a><\/h4>\n
