Football is music to everyone’s ears, and the literal music in everybody’s ears might be good, too.
Whether it’s Sam Spence’s iconic NFL Films soundtrack or the various network anthems for the game’s Sunday and Monday offerings, NFL fans are no stranger to recognizable music. Amazon looks to continue the trend with their own theme, with the vast majority of fans introduced to the theme on Thursday night.
“Our goal was to create a memorable theme that is both current and timeless,” composer Pinar Toprak said. “We leaned on the big brass and muscular energy of legacy scores, in combination with unique, lyrical moments, to achieve a feeling of heart and soul.”
Well, consider it mission accomplished for Toprak and Co.
