Jóhann Jóhannsson - Here they Used to Build Ships
If Scandi/Nordic noir didn’t grab you, chances are Broadchurch introduced you to a new kind of minimal musical backdrop. Here they Used to Build Ships is taken from an album soundtracking a film (Copenhagen Dreams) so centered on the structures and buildings that make up a city that any people happening into the frame are often deliberately out of focus: A work of gentle yet powerfully evocative beauty.
