Moonrise Kingdom Soundtrack

In addition to the film itself, one of the most anticipated elements for Wes Anderson’s forthcoming project, Moonrise Kingdom, around here will be the live-action feature’s soundtrack. From his perfect usage of the Nico version of “These Days” in The Royal Tenenbaums to the Kinks in The Darjeeling Limited, Anderson films always seem to remind us of favorite cuts from the past while providing welcome fresh context for enduring material from the greats. In short, the guy simply has great taste for tunes. Now with a trailer and new details on our radar, hints for what we can expect on the Moonrise Kingdom soundtrack abound.

In addition to original compositions by Alexandre Desplat along with contributions from Anderson’s other past collaborator Mark Mothersbaugh, previously recorded and released tracks will include work by Leonard Bernstein, Benjamin Britten, Françoise Hardy, and the late, great country music pioneer Hank Williams.

We’ve already heard at least one of the Hardy songs in January’s trailer — 1962 single “Le Temps De L’amour” — while Britten’s piece “Cuckoo!” also arrived in the preview.

We’re just one month away from the OST’s release via ABKCO Records on the week the film hits screens come May 25th, so stay tuned here for the full tracklist shortly.

  16. My developer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.
    I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
    But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on numerous websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.
