Lovecraft Country Trailer
The sample of Wilson’s “Land of 1000 Dances” is the perfect intro for Lovecraft Country on HBO. With the show's cast of heavy hitters Jurnee Smollett, Jonathan Majors, and Michael K. Williams conveying the supernatural storyline, the song brings a fitting intensity. Originally recorded to recount popular dance moves, the sound now lends itself to exploring other moves Black people have engaged in for survival over the years.
