Her ability to balance all of that while still managing to make a cohesive, singular score is what most impressed us.”On working with Boden and Fleck, Toprak commented, “We clicked from the start and wanted to find the right sound for the Cosmic scenes and how we can bring the 90s Earth feel into the scoreour sensibilities really did match and it’s been a wonderful collaboration.”Toprak’s score is a blend of electronics and orchestra, and was recorded with 90 musicians at London’s Abbey Road Studios. Not all of it is in the movie, but it was her fearlessness and playfulness and the emotional resonance in the music that really surprised us.
