ComingSoon is pleased to offer an exclusive track from Lakeshore Records’ Almost Paradise — Original Series Soundtrack: Season 1, featuring music by Fred Coury. The score—a mix of rock (Coury is the drummer for the multi-platinum rock band Cinderella), and island instruments, reflects both the nonstop action of the series as well as the fun and colorful aspects of the setting. Listen to the tracks below or purchase the full score here.
“Dean [Devlin] told me about a new show that he was doing and told me he’d like me to score it,” explained Coury. “He wanted a ‘rock’ heavy score for the action/fight scenes. I asked how ‘rock’ and he said, ‘make it heavy.’ I incorporated island instruments and tried to lean into Filipino instruments but use them in different ways than we’re used to hearing them. Once Dean heard/saw a few pieces, he let me run with it. I try to use as many ‘real’ instruments as possible. The show is pretty much wall-to-wall music and it’s so much fun to watch. I just had a blast creating this score.”

When life-threatening hypertension forces US DEA agent Alex Walker (Christian Kane) into early retirement, he decides to move to a tranquil deserted beach he remembered visiting in the Philippines many years ago. But when he arrives, he discovers that in the interim dozens of luxury resorts have been built, filling this once-secluded island with jet skis, honeymooners, screaming children…and the rich and famous criminals of the world. Against doctor’s orders, Alex finds himself drawn into cases where he uses his skills as a longtime operative to put away the bad guys that cross his path.
Season one of Almost Paradise, an Electric Entertainment production starring Christian Kane, Samantha Richelle, and Art Acuña, is streaming now on Amazon Freevee.
