Composed by Ramin Djawadi, this is the official soundtrack to Season 2 of HBO's critically acclaimed science fiction series Westworld. Released by Music On Vinyl as MOVATM221, this limited edition pressing presents a curated selection of 13 tracks from the full 29-piece score on a single 180-gram disc pressed in Shogun Green coloured vinyl, limited to 2,000 individually numbered copies worldwide.
The Music
Djawadi's score for Season 2 expands the sonic palette of Westworld considerably. With the introduction of Shogunworld and The Raj, the composer reimagines well-known songs through new cultural lenses — the Rolling Stones' "Paint It, Black" is reinterpreted with shakuhachi flute and taiko drums, the White Stripes' "Seven Nation Army" receives a sitar-driven arrangement, and Nirvana's "Heart-Shaped Box" is rendered as a sweeping orchestral piece. Wu-Tang Clan's "C.R.E.A.M." and Kanye West's "Runaway" also feature as instrumental reinterpretations. Alongside these adaptations, the selection includes original compositions such as "Akane no Mai" and "Take My Heart When You Go", as well as an arrangement of Radiohead's "Codex".
