New Release

Caldera Records proudly presents the music for Andrew Jarecki’s acclaimed series The Jinx.

Jarecki's HBO hit gave us a unique insight into the world of the Rich and Famous. This is Robert Durst’s story, the billionaire whose first wife, Kathleen McCormack, suddenly vanished; who dismembered pensioner Morris Black, and subsequently killed his best friend, Susan Berman, after she threatened to spill the beans on McCormack’s disappearance.

Jarecki hired composer West Dylan Thordson for the first season. His music for “The Jinx” is a darkly hypnotic score, suspense writing at its best. Skillfully, Thordson plays with key motifs and themes which he weaves in and out to combine them with new material and present them in a different instrumentation. The music for the recent second season of “The Jinx” was composed by Mondo Boys: Mike Schanzlin and Mike Griffin. They knew that what made the first season so impressive was its tonal ambiguity: the audience oftentimes never sure whether what they saw was hilarious or repulsive. Nailing the tone for Robert Durst and his unwitting accomplices was a balancing act.
