Halt and Catch Fire (AMC)

Picture
Set in the early 1980s, Halt & Catch Fire dramatizes the personal computing boom through the eyes of a visionary, an engineer and a prodigy whose innovations directly confront the corporate behemoths of the time. Their personal and professional partnership will be challenged by greed and ego while charting the changing culture in Texas' Silicon Prairie. From AMC Studios, Halt & Catch Fire is created by Chris Cantwell and Chris Rodgers. Mark Johnson (“Breaking Bad,” Diner, Rain Man) and Melissa Bernstein (“Breaking Bad”) from Gran Via Productions serve as executive producers, with showrunner Jonathan Lisco.

CHARACTER PLAYLISTS

Picture
We teamed up with AMC's Digital Marketing to create character and themed playlists for Halt and Catch Fire. We put together playlists based on each of the show's main characters for season one, expanded on those characters and added new ones, as well as some additional location and thematic based playlists for season two. In season three we created a master playlist that helps transition our crew from Dallas to San Francisco, and in season four a playlist that takes us into the 90s. The playlists can be found on Spotify and were featured as part of AMC's second-screen experience, Story Sync.  

Each playlist can be found on our website here.
