Frank Miller's Daredevil is a noir tale of Hell's Kitchen, Matt Murdock's double life, Catholic guilt, and the tragedy of Elektra and the Kingpin. This all-instrumental playlist mixes sparse piano, brooding trip-hop, dark ambient and moody jazz-noir for a mysterious, rain-slicked New York night, with balanced intensity for steady reading.
