#ENTER THE NINJA SOUNDTRACK MOVIE#
We might surprise you in the future with a longer episode where we’ll speak with one of the rock stars in the movie, or a director who put together a dazzling soundtrack.Įpisode 1 explores the best movie soundtrack you’ll be searching for years to find on vinyl: Martha Coolidge’s cult classic Valley Girl (1983). Life is short, and we don’t want you to miss out on movie mixtapes. We’re starting this podcast off short and sweet: the first few episodes are just 10-12 minutes apiece, reconsidering some of the most glorious soundtracks from modern cinema. While the first commercially available soundtracks were linked to Hollywood features in the 1930s and 1940s, it wasn’t until the 1960s and 1970s that movie directors were curating playlists and musicians got attached to specific films (think of The Graduate’s Simon and Garfunkel soundtrack, Cat Stevens’ collection for Harold And Maude, or Leonard Cohen’s songs in McCabe & Mrs. from cmorg in kana utah United states ( answer cmorg's question)Īsk a question about the music in this movie.Īdd music info heard in the movie but not listed on the soundtrack CD.Īdd other info not listed above (trivial anecdotes, press quotes, recording anomalies, etc).Ĭorrect errors listed above (incorrect tracklistings, product codes, typos, etc).Soundtracks have been around for awhile, but perhaps not as long as you’d think.
What song is playing when Chris Rock uses the tree to get into the building? Tarzan Boy ( thanks to ejrnfwelqj, usa) add more info What is the song playing when he is swaying the palm tree? ( from suwaibah in cape town) from Alice in Portage Indiana ( answer Alice's question) What is this song? Thank you kindly for helping me. The song starts playing once the robe is displayed in front of the bed and continues to play until he walks out of the hotel with Chris Rock. Then Haru goes back to his hotel to change into a white dojo robe. It plays just after the part where Haru's master says that he should save Alison. This is a song not on the original soundtrack, but plays during the movie. What song's playing when Haru is cooking his meal over the hot coals in the beginning?
