After listening to their music, heåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eimmediately knew: \"it was the sound of my new film\". With anåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eexcellent cast of France‰۪s finest actors Romain Duris, Charlotte LeåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBon, and the director himself, plus a script filled with tension, sexualityåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand darkness, they knew there was a lot of musical territory to mine.åÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt was agreed that they wanted to explore more analogue electroniqueåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eexperiments as well as working with a large string ensemble, to create\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003esomething that felt very modern and still cinematic.åÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e‰ÛÏDespite A Winged Victory For The Sullen being associated with filmåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003escore type music, trying to survive the process of creating the modernåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003efilm score is not for people with fragile egos. It requires those who areåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethe most responsive to change. The director and the film presented aåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003enew set of challenges, so we decided to stop thinking about cinema asåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ean object, and moved closer to using the film‰۪s images as triggers foråÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eexperiences.

Dustin and Adam began working from the script in their ownåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003estudios, and after filming commenced they continued to create musicåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethat could be used for first edits of the film ‰ÛÒ each day getting newåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003escenes that triggered ideas that would become the base of the filmåÊ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003escore.
