Description:
Tom Rowlands of The Chemical Brothers provides the pulsating soundtrack to M – Son of the Century, Joe Wright’s adaptation of Antonio Scurati’s award-winning novel about the rise of Mussolini. Scored with a mix of cinematic tension and club-driven electronics, the album underpins Wright’s ambitious historical series starring Luca Marinelli. Described by Today Italia as a “perfect soundtrack” and hailed by The Guardian as “intoxicating techno”, Rowlands’ work brings a visceral energy to the narrative’s dark political ascent.
