HBO Composer, Music Editor, and Music Supervisors on How to Create Music for New Show ‘The Baby’

HBO’s new television show, The Baby, is billed as a horror series in the vein of the acclaimed movie Get Out. And it’s true. The show, which debuts on the premium channel on April 24, is both terrific and eerie, odd and sumptuous.
