The music in Netflix’s Heartbreak High - with Jemma Burns and Charlie Lempriere
Description
For this episode of Sounds Seen we’re joined by Jemma Burns and Charlie Lempriere of Pulse Points, to speak about their work on the Netflix reboot of the Australian TV series Heartbreak High.
Drawing from their storied experience in music, specifically in the Australian scene, Jemma and Charlie have created a soundtrack for the series that reflects back what it means to be a high school kid in Australia - taking influence from around the world but leaning into the dynamism and richness of the Australian music scene across the spectrum - including The Veronicas, DJ Plead, Courtney Barnett and Troye Sivan.
We talk about how Australia is having a moment right now (musically and culturally), how music is perhaps THE key tool when trying to resonate with younger generation audiences, and Charlie also explains how he got his start as a music supervisor.
