Midnight Express Soundtrack

Italo disco pioneer and electronic music legend Giorgio Moroder is teaming up with producer Raney Shockne to compose the forthcoming soundtrack for USA’s crime drama Queen Of The South, which stars Alice Braga, Peter Gadiot, and Veronica Falcon. The duo last worked together in 2016 on the soundtrack for Disney’s Tron RUN/r video game. Moroder is known for his contributions to Cat People, Midnight Express, Scarface, and Flashdance, among others, as well as his Grammy-winning work on Daft Punk’s Random Access Memories.
The Queen Of The South score marks Moroder’s return to TV and film scoring after over three decades. Today we hear the album’s lead single “Moyocoyotzin.” Their electro-noir concoction blends retro synthesizers with classical and Latin stylings. The crashing bass and firing synths melt into an eerie strings arrangement. Listen below.

At mule musiq, we’ve focused on shining light on the many aspects of what electronic music can be, putting out house, techno and ambient releases on our main label, while releasing alternative-leaning dance music through our endless flight imprint. But with the launch of our new label, studio mule, we are stepping away from electronic club music for a bit. The label will not be tied to a specific genre, as we will instead focus on releasing any kind of music that we feel is a little bit different and interesting, but somehow make sense in this day and age. For our first batch of releases, we will be focusing on Japanese music.

For the first time, Little Steven’s music from the ground-breaking first original series, Lilyhammer, which ended in 2014, has been collected together and will be released as two separate albums – Lilyhammer The Score – Volume 1: Jazz and Volume 2: Folk, Rock, Rio, Bits And Pieces – on CD, digital and 180g black vinyl on 12 July via Wicked Cool/UMe.
