We at Collider are happy to exclusively debut theCharlie’s Angelssoundtrack details for composerBrian Tyler’s score for the upcoming film, along with the first listen of Tyler’s newCharlie’s Angelstheme. Directed byElizabeth Banks, the movie expands the iconic franchise into a global scale withKristen Stewart,Naomi Scott, andElla Ballinskafilling the roles of the new trio of Angels.
Below you can hear Tyler’s take on theCharlie’s Angelstheme. The composer is no stranger to blockbuster fare as he previously composed the score for films likeAvengers: Age of Ultron,Furious 7, andIron Man 3, but his versatility was on full display with his excellent score for the smash hitCrazy Rich Asians.
“It was an absolute pleasure composing the score forCharlie’s Angelsfor the incredible director Elizabeth Banks,” says composer Brian Tyler of the score. “Together we endeavored to create a score that enhanced the mystery, action, fun, and power of the movie while giving a nod to the movie’s 70s roots. I composed new themes for the film that would feel nostalgic yet fresh and also work playing alongside the theme from the original TV series. The sonic elements of the score conjure up a variety of musical styles: symphonic, hip-hop, and 70s groove. I played many instruments on the score myself such as guitar, vintage drums, Rhodes piano, vibes, and electric bass. I then recorded and mixed those elements in a way that would sound like they were sampled off vintage albums, a technique often employed in hip-hop. I also conducted the Hollywood Studio Symphony which provided an epic feel and a deeper emotional context. In addition, I had a blast with two nu-disco songs (‘Euphoria’ and ‘Neon Sky’), produced under my electronic music moniker Madsonik. The movie was an absolute joy thanks to the amazing team lead by our director Elizabeth Banks. I hope everyone enjoys listening to this album as much as we enjoyed making it!”
