Andor: Season 2 (Original Score) is the score album composed by Brandon Roberts and Nicholas Britell for the second season of the American science fiction political spy thriller drama television series Andor. [1] [2]

Towards the end of the season, the music becomes more orchestral to better transition into Michael Giacchino's score for Rogue One , to which Andor serves as a prequel. [3] [4] [5]

"NIAMOS! (Chandrilian Club Mix)", an EDM remix of "Niamos!", which played during the season's third episode, was widely acclaimed. [6] [7] [8] Vanity Fair described it as the 2025 "Song of Summer". [9] Andor's showrunner Tony Gilroy described "Niamos!" as a "galactic hit", with various versions played throughout both seasons. [10] [11]
