Pat Irwin Scores DEXTER RESURRECTION Original Series Soundtrack Vol. 1

Lakeshore Records released Dexter: Resurrection— Original Series Soundtrack Volume 1 digitally on October 30, featuring an original score by composer and New York-based No Wave musician Pat Irwin (Dexter: New Blood, Nurse Jackie). Returning for the continuation of the series, Irwin creates a score that takes the distinct soundscape elements—synth, piano and strings—and takes the sense of menace to a new level. The second season of Dexter Resurrection starring SAG Award honoree and Golden Globe winner Michael C. Hall premiered October 30, exclusively on Paramount+ on the Premium Plan.

Irwin said: 'For the current season of Dexter: Resurrection I embraced the fact that this soundtrack is part of a glorious twenty year Dexter legacy. The show and the score are also part of a larger lineage and while reading the scripts I listened to some of the classic thriller scores like 'Susperia' and 'Silence of the Lambs,' among others. I wanted to be a part of that tradition.'

About Dexter Resurrection

From Emmy-nominated showrunner and executive producer Clyde Phillips, the second season of Dexter: Resurrection finds Dexter Morgan (Hall) caught between two killers — one with decades of notoriety and a lifetime of kills behind him, and the other a fresh young face terrorizing New York in ways no one has ever seen. Meanwhile, Dexter battles a new and unexpected enemy: a mid-life crisis. Harrison (Jack Alcott) continues his own pursuit of justice as father and son face their darkest chapter yet.

Alongside Hall, the series stars returning cast members Uma Thurman, Jack Alcott, Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine, Kadia Saraf, Dominic Fumusa, Desmond Harrington and James Remar. Dan Stevens, Emmy winner Bokeem Woodbine, Nona Parker Johnson, and Emmy, Olivier and Golden Globe winner Brian Cox join season two in series regular roles. Krysten Ritter also returns in a guest starring role and Gabriel Luna joins as a guest star this season.

From Paramount Television Studios and Counterpart Studios, Dexter: Resurrection is executive produced by Emmy nominee Clyde Phillips, who also serves as showrunner, Michael C. Hall, Scott Reynolds, Marcos Siega, Tony Hernandez, and Lilly Burns. Additional executive producers include John Goldwyn and Sara Colleton, along with Veronica West, Kirsa Rein, and Tanner Bean & Katrina Mathewson.
