Montreal producer Kaytranada and the composer behind the distinctive score of HBO’s “The White Lotus” are among the winners at a Quebec-based edition of the SOCAN Awards. A virtual celebration of the SOCAN Gala recognized achievements by francophone and anglophone members of the music organization in 22 categories. Cristobal Tapia de Veer picked up the award for screen composer of the year after his percussive score for “The White Lotus” captivated viewers of the breakout HBO hit series. The SOCAN Gala is a companion event to the annual SOCAN Awards, which took place in May with a similar online event. Other winners Tuesday included Steve Marin who received a non-performer songwriter award for his behind-the-scenes work with pop duo 2Frères.
