Three-time Grammy-nominated duo ODESZA have teamed up with executive producer Ben Stiller to extend the world of his hit Apple TV+ show Severance across a new 7-track EP, entitled "Music To Refine To: A Remix Companion to Severance" adding their unique signature to the unmistakable sounds of Theodore Shapiro’s Emmy Award-winning compositions. “When Apple reached out to us to remix the Severance score in January we were so ecstatic to play with the themes and atmosphere of the show,” explain ODESZA. “We are huge fans of the series and it was an absolute honor working with the original score by Theodore Shapiro. We hope both you and your innie will enjoy the journey.” The music, which first appeared on the 8-hour visual/audio experience “Music To Refine To”, has been viewed more than 2 million times in the two-weeks since launching, with ODESZA’s social posts on the collaboration viewed more than 3.5 million times in the same period. The multi-award-winning show, which concluded its second season last Friday 21st March, sees Mark Scout (Adam Scott) lead a team at Lumon Industries, whose employees have undergone a severance procedure that surgically divides their memories between their work and personal lives. With a prestigious cast that also includes Zach Cherry, Britt Lower, Christopher Walken, Patricia Arquette, Tramell Tillman, Michael Chernus and John Turturro, the show is one of the best rated of all time. The vinyl release will find the 7 track continuous mix appear on both the A and B sides of the record, playing into the looping nature of the original upload.
