'Mullholland Drive' is a fantastic film, Lynch's best since 'Blue Velvet' (though I've liked everyhthing he's done). The images are matched by the sublime music contained by this cd...The 'Twin Peaks', 'Blue Velvet', 'Floating in the Night', 'Wild at Heart', 'Lost Highway' & 'Straight Story' soundtracks were obligatory. 'MD' continues this- we have lovely 50's kitsch ('...star'), the massive strings of Angelo Badalmenti and sonic experiments by David Lynch (not forgetting a Willie Dixon number). The main theme captures the sinister noir of Hollywood (an aural equivalent of West's 'Day of the Locust'). The 'Jitterbug' opener, as in the film is mindblowing- the cd works as a whole flipping from atmospheres to atmospheres: a true soundtrack (rather than a collection of artists on same label as the filmmakers used to cross-promote product: 'Lock Stock', 'Trainspotting' etc). This cd has to be owned by everyone, if only for the Spanish take on Roy Orbison's 'Crying' (the scene in the film is overpowering in its sense of undefined loss). It sounds very much like Liz Fraser or Lisa Gerrard on the first This Mortal Coil album ('Song to the Siren' was to be used in 'Blue Velvet' & ended up in 'Lost Highway')...'Mullholland Drive' is the best soundtrack album of the 21st century!

Format:Audio CD
As with most David Lynch films, one thing you notice about Mulholland Drive is how good the soundtrack is. Right from the opening jazz number, Jitterbug, a damn cool tune, long-time Lynch collaborator Angelo Badalamenti really knows how to make the film either cool and groovy, or mysterious and spooky.
There are a few tracks which are quite minimal when listened to on their own, because they're parts of the score, and several of these are among the first few tracks. This may be slightly irritating if you want to get to the more standout tracks. The score is very good though if you're in the mood. If you listen out, you can hear a melody straight out of Twin Peaks, and the score is fairly similar, but not too much so.
The overall tone for this soundtrack is jazz or quiet, moody string scores, but there are a couple of tracks that cover other areas. There's the catchy 50's pop song Every Little Star (Camilla sings it in the film as her audition), and some bluesy tracks (Go Get Some is my personal favorite), and also a track off an album co-written by David Lynch.
Long story short: If you saw the film and thought the soundtrack was cool, this is well worth it. If you've not seen the film, do that.

David Lynch and Angelo Badalementi go together like sugar in tea. This has twangs of previous Badalamenti work from Blue Velvet to Twin Peaks, from mysterious elongated chords from the score to quirky songs. Also a key ingredient: an awesome vocal by Rebekah Del Rio, as Julee Cruse was for Twin Peaks.

Absolutely flawless. More-so than the film itself and I still think the film is almost beyond reproach. Read more

MULHOLLAND DRIVE SOUND TRACK
Angelo Badalamenti's score loses much of it's eeriness without David Lynch's haunting images to accompany it. Nevertheless, that oppressive atmosphere is still present here. Read more

A great soundtrack to a modern masterpiece.
There is little doubt-except in Oscars voters limited minds- that 'Mulholland Dr.' is a modern masterpiece. Read more
