It would help if you actually told us when the song plays.

It is in the forat Episode about 11minutes in when the cleaner Ria enters Frans big house for the first time. It sounds like a rap song, kind of Step Up vibes

I'm assuming this is the intro song in the first episode though you've not time stamped it, just loaded it up on iplayer with Subtitles and searched the lyrics "dirty money dark moon the devil's got a seat next to you black cat tight noose" nothing shows up. Nothing populated on what song:

I've emailed the production company [info@quaystreetproductions.co.uk](mailto:info@quaystreetproductions.co.uk)

It is the song playing when Ria enters Frans house for the first time - around 11 minutes in to the forst Episode. It sounds like a rap song, like Step Up vibes

Great thank you. At the moment it says its Unknown and they are trying to find that song for that particular scene. Hopefully they update it 🙏

I was trying to locate the opening song too, literally the first 90 seconds of ep1.

Lyrics:

they all know your name on the streets. 

You cant escape the legacy 

The shadows follow you at your feet 

Hereditary, adversary, knife at your throat Try and try and try but it will never let you go 

Forever curse the name because you reap what they sow   Bloodlines, it's in the bloodlines, it;s in the blood

Nothing is coming back on a search, the Chat thing says it's probably Blair Mowat original.

I think it sounds like ashniko

Hi, its not the opening song I am looking for. Its the song playing when Ria enters Frans house for the first time. About 11mins in to the first episode

You may find it's the same situation with your song too, it's an original score that's specifically for the show and won't be available yet, so nothing online will recognise it.

Blair Mowat is in charge of music, there may be an OST release if there's enough interest, but I've not seen any artists claiming anything from the show, so maybe they make sound-alike tunes for the show.

Hi, I'm looking for this song too! Tried Shazam as well as searching the lyrics and nothing turned up, I'd love to know if you do manage to find it :)
