Nicholas Britell's 2016 soundtrack to Oscar-winning movie Moonlight has been universally praised for its eccentric and surprisingly experimental approach. Britell, best known for composing neo-classical works, delivered a score inspired by the "chopped and screwed" production style that has been a feature of the experimental hip-hop scene for the last few years. Yet he wasn't slowing down and tampering with R&B vocal samples, but rather his own chamber music compositions (think violins, violas and cellos). It's a curious formula that makes for breathlessly exciting listening throughout, and a movie soundtrack that pleasingly eschews familiar themic staples in favour of something a little more daring and avant-garde.
