The World” soundtrack, we figured and wrote that he was probably curating the soundtrack picks (which isn’t confirmed, but strongly implied).

However, we did say to friends over dinner recently more specifically: “oh, maybe he’s also recording all the bands who will make the music for Sex Bob-Omb and The Clash At Demonhead (the rival bands in the film, Micheal Cera’s Pilgrim band being the former).
