Background Mark Mothersbaugh composed the film's original score ,while Gabe Hilfer and Karyn Rachtman serve as music supervisors . [ 1] He noted that creating the soundtrack for the film presented him a "unique challenge" as it had to balance the charm of the quirky characters with its intense action sequences having "high-energy moments". [ 2] This provided him a thoughtful approach to ensure that the score not only compliments the action but adds "depth and emotional resonance". [ 3]
Mothersbaugh incorporated nods to the music of the game by C418 ,whose title track plays during the opening credits ,and the song "Dragon Fish" plays during a scene with pandas . [ 4] Lena Raine 's track "Pigstep " features during the "Nether's Got Talent" sequence. [ 4] The score is performed by the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra conducted and orchestrated by Tim Davies and choir by The Tudor Consort . It was further recorded at the Michael Fowler Centre in Wellington . [ 5]
Besides Mothersbaugh's score,the film further includes several original songs performed by Black. [ 6] This included "I Feel Alive",written by Black,and features Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl on drums,Queens of the Stone Age guitarist Troy Van Leeuwen ,Jellyfish keyboardist Roger Joseph Manning Jr. ,and Mark Ronson on both rhythm guitar and bass. Brooks also provides backup vocals. [ 7] [ 8] The song was released as a single on March 19,2025. [ 9] Mothersbaugh's score,along with original songs by Benee ,Dayglow ,and Dirty Honey ,was released digitally on March 28 through WaterTower Music . [ 3] The film also features an instrumental rendition of Depeche Mode 's "Just Can't Get Enough " performed by Jamieson Shaw. [ 4] [ 10]
Critical reception David Ehrlich of IndieWire found the music "poppy". [ 11] Calling the soundtrack as "boisterous and exciting" Charles Papadopoulos of Screen Rant also noted that it adds an "epic,fantastical element to the family-friendly comedy film." [ 12] Julian Roman of MovieWeb was critical of Black's original songs being "bland or obnoxious";however,he added "Mark Mothersbaugh of Devo fame adds a rocking 80s score that clears your ears of the original music."
