deadmau5 and Skylar Grey Reunite for “Resident Evil” Soundtrack With New Single, “My Heart Has Teeth”
After teasing their latest collaboration last week, deadmau5 and Skylar Grey‘s contribution to Netflix’s Resident Evil soundtrack has finally arrived. “My Heart Has Teeth” expertly captures the haunting ethos of the beloved horror franchise. By making use of JUNO and Jupiter synths, deadmau5 is able to capture an ethereal, downtempo sound that’s far different than the pulsing electro sound we’ve come to expect. Grey’s mesmerizing vocals and lyrics are yet another enchanting layer to the captivating song. The reunion of deadmau5 and Grey follows 2016’s “Beneath With Me,” a fan-favorite collab with Kaskade. This isn’t the only homecoming featured on the soundtrack, however, as deadmau5 previously worked with Grégory ...

MUNA Cover Britney Spears’ “Sometimes” for Fire Island Soundtrack: Stream
MUNA have paid tribute to Britney Spears with a cover of the pop princess’ 1999 classic “Sometimes.” Stream the track below. For their take, the queer trio reimagine the hit as a churning electro-tinged dreamscape. “Sometimes I run, sometimes I hide/ Sometimes I’m scared of you/ But all I really want is to hold you tight, treat you right/ Be with you day and night/ Baby, all I need is time,” Katie Gavin sings on the chorus before cutting out the schmaltz of the song’s bridge in favor of an extended instrumental break. The pop band’s cover of the ballad will be featured in Hulu’s upcoming gay rom-com Fire Island. Based loosely on Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, the film stars Joel Kim Booster (who also wrote the screenplay), Saturday Night Live’s Bowen Yang, Conrad Ricamora, Ja...
St. Vincent Covers “Funkytown” for Minions: The Rise of Gru Soundtrack: Stream
St. Vincent is going straight to “Funkytown.” Today, Annie Clark has unveiled her cover of the Lipps Inc. classic for the soundtrack to Minions: The Rise of Gru. Take a listen below. “Won’t you take me to funkytown?/ Won’t you take me to funkytown?/ Won’t take me to funkyto-own?/ Won’t you take me to funkytown?” she asks again and again with a healthy amount of vocoder over a bouncing, synth-driven beat produced by Jack Antonoff. The song will be featured in the upcoming sequel to 2015’s Minions, which promises to tell “the origin story of how Gru (voiced by Steve Carell), the world’s greatest supervillain, first met his iconic Minions, forged cinema’s most despicable crew and faced off against the most unstoppable criminal force ever assembled,” all set in the flash of the 1970s.

Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis Soundtrack Features Stevie Nicks, Tame Impala, Jack White, and More
If a soundtrack has both Elvis Presley’s and Baz Luhrmann’s names attached to it, chances are it’s gonna be good.

Elvis will also feature contributions from Eminem, Denzel Curry, Diplo, Jazmine Sullivan, Gary Clark Jr., Måneskin.

Doja Cat Unveils New Song “Vegas” from Elvis Soundtrack: Stream
Doja Cat has dropped a new song called “Vegas,” which serves as the lead single to the soundtrack for Baz Luhrmann’s upcoming biopic Elvis. Listen to the track below. As the first look at the Elvis soundtrack, “Vegas” follows Luhrmann’s grand tradition of pairing historical content with modern music. Doja Cat lives up to the challenge, sampling Elvis’ (nay, Big Mama Thornton’s) rock and roll classic “Hound Dog” for a moody rap song bemoaning a universal truth: men ain’t shit. “You ain’t nothing but a/ Dog? Player, I get it/ Fraud? Player, I get it/ I understand, I understand,” Doja spits, over boosted bass. Some things never change. The official Elvis soundtrack arrives June 24th, the same day as the film. The project, Luhrmann’s first since 2013’s The Great Gatsby, stars Au...
