Edith Bowman
About this episode
We're such a fan of the movies of our latest guest on Soundtracking, the wonderful Jordan Peele.

Following the critical and commercial success of Get Out and Us, Jordan goes fully widescreen with his sci-fi epic Nope, which sees ranch-owning siblings Daniel Kaluuya and Keke Palmer try to capture footage of an extraterrestrial spacecraft. We shall say no more than that ...

As with Jordan's previous two movies, Nope is scored by Michael Abels, and we share plenty of his music from the film too.
