Top Movie Soundtracks

Music and movies are both popular forms of mass art, but when they are combined something amazing happens. The perfect soundtrack can help you remember a particular scene for years. A soundtrack is a carefully curated collection of music that has been designed to create a specific mood or tone. Soundtracks are creative, artistic, experimental and poignant. Scores are composed specifically for movies and contain original music. We take a look here at some of the most iconic soundtracks from fantastic films.

The Blues Brothers (1980)

It’s not difficult to create a soundtrack for a movie based on this genre of music. Both the film and soundtrack include classics by Ray Charles, James Brown and Cab Calloway. The soundtrack is a soul-powerhouse, which it should be for a movie about two blues lovers.
