Once you've seen Reservoir Dogs, your relationship with that song is forever changed. In his films, Quentin Tarantino rewires the way we feel about songs that we've known and loved forever. This evil, frightening juxtaposition is one of the finest moments in modern film. Reservoir DogsĪ dancing Mr Blonde takes a razor blade to rookie cop Marvin Nash, while Stealers Wheel's ‘Stuck In The Middle With You' plays on a crappy radio in the background. A fine adaptation of Chi's brilliant work. It has its emotional peaks and troughs, but there's a breezy feel that runs through this deeply musical road trip movie. A pertinent reminder of his immense power as an interpreter of song. And Ernie Dingo and Missy Higgins are a surprisingly great match on ‘Feel Like Going Home'. Dan Sultan's rollicking ‘Seeds That You Might Sow' is stirring, but his best performance – and the soundtrack highlight – is the simple and unaffected ‘Black Girl'. Jessica Mauboy's lead on ‘All The Way Jesus' is the perfect midpoint between pop and spiritual. The songs were already sensational, but in the hands of the artists here, they became even better. Jimmy Chi's 1990 musical got the attention it so richly deserved in 2009 when Bran Nue Dae was made into a feature film. Perfect for when you're next playing Wipeout 2097 – Dan Condon 49. At worst, DJ Spooky sucked up all the power of Metallica's genius ‘For Whom The Bell Tolls'.

In a move that can only be called Judgment Night-esque, someone decided to match modern rock and metal titans with some of the biggest names in the burgeoning electro genre for the soundtrack to 1997's (not very good) Spawn.Īt best, it meant Slayer and Atari Teenage Riot ended up in the same playpen and some joker threw the Butthole Surfers and Moby together (hopefully for a laugh).

SpawnĪmong the Playstation consoles, SMP cargo shorts and chat rooms that typified adolescence in the mid-late ‘90s, were a series of hugely hyped, underdelivering blockbuster films with big, polished hyper-aggressive soundtracks that matched the onscreen action perfectly. Your favourite film or soundtrack might be here, it might not, but there's no doubting how iconic and unforgettable each of these pieces of music are.

We're celebrating the Most Memorable Movie Soundtracks on Double J, and we've put our heads together to come up with the 50 that we feel live on in our hearts and memories strongest. Soundtracks can stand alone as glorious pieces of art, and, at their best, they make the art they accompany just that little bit better. It can open your mind to music you never knew you loved, and music that will go on to soundtrack your own life. In isolation, a soundtrack can provide a pathway to exciting new musical discoveries. It can completely alter the way you construe a scene and can make you completely change your opinion on a song you once hated (or loved). The right movie soundtrack infinitely heightens the experience of watching a film.

These 50 soundtracks make their films better, and stand alone as works of art unto themselves.
