Tangelene Bolton Scores 'Scam Factory' Podcast from Wondery

Wondery has released their latest podcast series Scam Factory, with an original main title theme and score by Tangelene Bolton! This score gave Tangelene an opportunity to revisit her Filipina roots and utilize indigenous Filipino instruments. Tangelene shared:

“What made this experience even more special was the hands-on collaboration between different departments and the huge emphasis on the sonic experience. Every detail was crafted with intention, and I was deeply inspired to create a score that blends tension, emotion, and resilience. I incorporated indigenous Filipino instruments to honor our culture and the resilience of the people at the hear of this story.”

Synopsis: You know those messages that you get all the time, the ones that pop up out of nowhere? They could be real, but something about them seems fishy. You likely dismiss these texts and emails as mere annoyances, thinking you’ve stopped some random stranger from ripping you off. But the shocking truth is, the person behind that message might be trapped inside a “scam factory” on the other side of the world and forced to scam others against their will. From Wondery, comes a new series about the brutal reality behind these operations, where one family discovers a horrifying truth: the only way out is to scam their way out.
