Even if the film isn't all that great, the soundtrack to "Repo Men" has some serious pedigree.
The twelve song set leans heavily on a mix of hip hop, electronic music and alt rock -- and sometimes all three at once. Wu-Tang soulmates Method Man and RZA contribute some tracks, while UNKLE, Beck and alt rockers Moloko stop by for appearances. Taking things down a notch are Rosemary Clooney and Nina Simone and things get soulful with tracks by Toots & The Maytals and William Bell. Score composer Marco Beltrami also has one of his pieces included to close off the disc.
"Repo Men" opens today and if you like what you hear, the soundtrack hits stores on Tuesday.

I kept telling my movie date just how AWESOME the soundtrack was as we watched this flick.
The pacing and selection of the songs was very well done.
It made the movie even more enjoyable to watch :)
I agree wit Ayo. the soundtrack was amazing. My date and I both said at the the end of the movie that we had to get it. I also love3d the movie.
Totally agree. The soundtrack was top notch. It made the movie that much better.

if you want to find a good version of the song the girl sings, "cry me a river," look for the Ella Fitzgerald version....very beautiful. Very sultry.
Can't even remember when a soundtrack was this good. Also, awesome site. Much love
this soundtrack was incredible, it not only set the pace of the film but the emotion. Very very well done--I agree with Hal, Ella is the queen but another great selection for "Cry Me a River" would have to be Julie London on the V for Vendetta soundtrack.
Was kinda hoping the Moloko track would resemble the remix used in Repo Men, as opposed to the already released album track.
Also, I feel like there was infinitely more music used in the movie than what's on the soundtrack. So many soundtracks are like this these days. Wish they wouldn't leave stuff out.
so sad to hear that the moloko track on the sdtk isn't the remix used in the film. LOVED the film version. love the original, but the remix is a nice surprise...
Soundtrack really made the movie. But who did the music supervision? Can't find it on IMDB.
could anyone post a link to the soundtrack and share
the Fitzgerald version is okay, but I love the Billie Holiday version of Cry me a River. Why didn't they include this on the soundtrack? It was such an integral part of the movie...
Okay, trying out the Julie London version...Yes, very noir. Perfect.
Also agree that os much of the music was left out from the soundtrack. Why so? that sucks.
Ask and you shall receive Moloko Repo Men mix http://www.sendspace.com/file/vjlq8z . Its there for a week. I only had that one, but I can't even FIND the actual soundtrack ANYWHERE!
I see I wasn't the only one who thought the soundtrack was amazing! Thanks for compiling this.
I didn't like the film that much, but i loved the music!
The film is great and the soundtrack is great.
again, the soundtracks are just perfect with the movie. i LOVE every soundtracks at the very end of the movie, goose bumps alll the way.
Great OST for such a thriller
Great OST 4 the thriller
Gr8 OST 4 the thriller
if you are searching for the song ( remix )Moloko

I love the songs! I heard most of them but in the movie they were better than ever!
Sorry, no links to pirated albums please. Thanks.
i just finished the movie! i dont know what u thing but i liked it. Ok there was a bit of kill bill blood. But i liked it. (the end wasnt what i was expecting, but it was nice). And the soundtrack gave a boost!!!Amazed.I m lloking forward to purchase it!!!!!
I think the movie has fun and blood also a bit of romance :)I really liked it. I have never listen such gorgeous songs in one movie.
I have the OSD. If you want, just mail me, I'll send.
loved it! Nina Simone's Feeling Good just kept on buzzing in my head for days afterwords, and thanks to this blog - I finally found what I was looking for...yeah, shame on me, I'm not that acquainted with her body of work. What an amazing song!
As for the movie, I thought it was pretty good, personally - SPOILER ALERT - I would have like a happier ending...but maybe than it'd feel like the Blade Runner despicable ending, that just never felt right.
luv the music on this rza was dope
i wanna kno the name of that techno song thats playin during the stripping scene, lol. can anyone help me out?
oh this is killing me,
anybody know the song that rza was trying to finish in his house when remy came??
is it an actual song?
One of the best soundtracks recently. Well balanced, it really makes the movie. Not sure, why the movie is such a disaster commercially? Must be politics - too gory to get access to many theaters, especially in the US. Whatsoever...
The RZA (feat Stone Mecca & Reverend...) song is #10: "Every Day Will Be Like A Holiday". It's a brand new tune composed for the movie. More songs of this collabo can be found on the Afro Samurai CDs, too.
Does anyone know where I can get a brand new (and unregistered) pair of lungs? :D
I agree with Anonymous! Whats the techno song in the movie during the scene with the stripper who pops out of the heart at 38:30. Please help!
can anyone tell me what is the name of that awesome song John Leguizamo's put on the vinyl in his hideout/apartment??
es rola donde sale John Leguizamo cual es?
how is remix of the sing it back??
just watched the movie.... awesome soundtrack
i liked the movie defently worth watching a second time, but i absolutly loved the soundtrack i was singing along from the start its been a long time since i thought "i want that soundtrack" i love it
For a movie to be made that is so crazy in its concept.. it is more personal if the music matches the mind state as you watch.
and if this ever becomes reality in its form... i will be listening to moloko as i 'repo' the love of my life..(however much of a dream it is..)
When you are cutting each other at the end of the film is the music played at that time?
01:40:05 What is the song playing? pLease heLp :S
i would love to know what that song is where the guy comes in with the shopping trolly and a body init, i know the lyrics are summat like power to the pimp but i dont know what the songs called or who its by email me if anyone knows at haynclai@aol.com
OH MY GOSH, the songs, are AWESOME!!!!
very very good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At the end of the movie while on the beach, a song of 'not someday-but today' for reaching ones dream was played. The credits show it to be 'Black Eyed Peas / Someday'. That is not the song. Does anyone know the correct song?
The song playing on the beach at the end, which has the 'reach your dream today- not someday' was in the credits as 'Black Eyed Peas / Someday'- and is not the song, nor the ones on the soundtrack. Having trouble finding this! Anyone?
what is the name of the song when he's in the hallway, killing the men there? is almost the end
the song in the hallway is by UNKLE called Burn My Shadow ... good movie i thought and enhanced by good tracks littered through out the movie
Stripper scene: Supabeatz - sexo perfecto (en masse remix)
Asbury vinyl title Hit It and Quit It from album Maggot Brain, Funkadelic 1971, is definately missing.
