Bruce Gilbert and Lauren Mikus recently provided the music supervision for two new series for Apple TV+!
Roar, the genre-bending anthology series from Liz Flahive and Carly Mensch, weaves together eight darkly comedic feminist fables that take unexpected approaches to subjects like gender roles, autonomy and identity. Roar stars Issa Rae, Nicole Kidman, Alison Brie and more.
“Each tale carries an admirable purpose and evokes genuine curiosity, both as each episode unfolds and in anticipation for what the next entry could bring. As a portrait of women, “Roar” recognizes the specificity in individual identities while casting relatable perspectives on motherhood, relationships, career-building, and more. It’s as easy to love as it is to admire — and neither feeling fades over the rewarding first season.” – Ben Travers, Indiewire
Make or Break follows the stories of the world’s top surfers as they compete for the highly sought after World Surf League championship. Some of the surfers featured in the docu-series include Kelly Slater, Stephanie Gilmore, Gabriel Medina, Tyler Wright, Italo Ferreira, and Tatiana Weston-Webb.
“One thing’s for sure: This is a must-watch series, an insight into modern pro surfing like nothing before it. “Make Or Break” shows you that at the very least, competitive surfing is as raw as any mainstream sport. It deep dives into the idea that the characters wandering the WSL’s CT landscape are not the gods they are built up to be, but like you and I, mere mortals trying to succeed.” – Hannah Anderson, Surfline
