We also have an exclusive interview with the brilliant composer Nathan Barr, who has most recently been working on fantasy Amazon series 'Carnival Row'.

'Carnival Row' is set in a Victorian fantasy world filled with mythological immigrant creatures whose exotic homelands were invaded by the empires of man. This growing population struggles to coexist with humans – forbidden to live, love, or fly with freedom. But even in darkness, hope lives, as a human detective, Rycroft Philostrate (Orlando Bloom – ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’), and a refugee faerie named Vignette Stonemoss (Cara Delevingne ‘Suicide Squad’) rekindle a dangerous affair despite an increasingly intolerant society. Vignette harbours a secret that endangers Philo’s world during his most important case yet: a string of gruesome murders threatening the uneasy peace of the Row.
