Devonté Hynes - Palo Alto
Devonté Hynes, the pop lord sometimes known as Blood Orange, has shared his first new joint since 'Cupid Deluxe' today, in the shape of the title track for Gia Coppola's forthcoming film Palo Alto. Based on the book by (and also starring) James Franco, Hynes provided the score for the film – something he discussed in his recent TED talk. Palo Alto is a sweet little number, heavy on the flanger and the treble-y guitar, with Hynes pleading early on, "Don't you think that we were beautiful?"
Domino are releasing the soundtrack physically early in June, which as detailed in the tracklist below features several other tracks by Hynes.
