About the album

This is composer Atli Örvarsson’s soundtrack to the Sky Original thriller series The Iris Affair, starring Niamh Algar and Tom Hollander. Atli’s suspenseful, atmospheric score combines electronics, orchestra and voice.

‘The Iris Affair is a tense and cinematic chase thriller that pits two brilliant minds against each other in a deadly game of hide and seek across Italy.

When enigmatic genius Iris Nixon cracks a string of complex online puzzles, she’s led to a piazza in Florence where she meets charismatic entrepreneur Cameron Beck, who invites her to come and work for him to unlock a powerful and top-secret piece of technology. Her curiosity piqued, she accepts, but when Iris discovers its dangerous potential, she steals the journal containing the device’s activation sequence and vanishes.

As the series unfolds, Iris finds herself in a relentless pursuit, from a remote cabin in Sardinia through the bustling streets of Rome, as Cameron races to find Iris in a high-stakes game where trust is dangerous and failure could be catastrophic.’

The 8-part series is created by Neil Cross (Luther), and directed by Terry McDonough (Breaking Bad) and Sarah O’Gorman (The Witcher).

The Iris Affair is streaming on Sky TV from Thursday 16th October.
