Devonté Hynes – a.k.a. Blood Orange – has created his first original score for the feature length film Palo Alto from writer-director Gia Coppola. Based on several linked stories by James Franco, Palo Alto is a teenage romance for the ages, made indelible through its ensemble cast (James Franco, Emma Roberts, Jack Kilmer, Nat Wolff, Zoe Levin).  The score is available digitally now and physically on August 4^th. Today you can also stream the score’s “April’s Bathroom Bummer.” Hynes wrote and performed the entire score along with guest vocals by Samantha Urbani and additional instrumentation by Jason Arce.

The Palo Alto official soundtrack is out now digitally and will be released physically June 4th via Domino. Entitled Palo Alto (Music From The Motion Picture), the soundtrack features Hynes, as well as songs by Robert Schwartzman (co –composer of Palo Alto), Coconut Records (Jason Schwartzman), Nat & Alex Wolff, and more.

Following the release of Cupid Deluxe, Devonté Hynes has very quickly established himself as one of the most prolific musicians, songwriters and producers in the industry right now. Hynes recently played to massive crowds for his very firstCoachella performance, sold out must-see shows in NYC, LA and San Francisco, and recently performed as a special guest at this year’s Armory Week party for the MoMA.
