Cue of the Week: “Hacking With Darla”

This week’s selection from Secrets Beneath the Floorboards is a pulsing electronic rhythm to accompany the snooping of a white-hat hacker.

I treated this cue as its own musical moment, distinct from the themes and motifs that pop up throughout the score. This kind of synthesizer smorgasbord is especially fun to write, since the potential palette of sounds is so vast and colorful.
