FILM MUSIC AND SONGS IN BREAKING EVEN

The songs in Breaking Even of the folk genre describe a raw, wistful nostalgic mood. Shary Osman and Jordan Prince contribute vocals. The score itself is a music of contrasts: on the one hand, the elite world that the characters visit in the course of the series, on the other hand, the menace of the same world. Traditional and modern sound surfaces face each other, mix, influence each other. David Reichelt gets very close to the characters and uses the music to tell the elegy of the world within which the characters operate.
