Ryuichi Sakamoto scores an episode of new Black Mirror series

The score will be released on 7 June via Milan Records.

Ryuichi Sakamoto has scored the first episode of the new Black Mirror series, entitled Smithereens. The opening episode will be available to stream exclusively on Netflix from 5 June, and Sakamoto’s soundtrack will be released as an LP afterwards via Milan Records.

The trailer for Smithereens was released yesterday (21 May), and it features Andrew Scott as an Uber-esque driver who, later, appears to be in danger from the authorities. The one-minute clip has been captioned with: “Don’t forget to rate your drivers.” Watch it via the player above.
