913. Air - The Virgin Suicides


Air was hand picked to create the soundtrack to Sofia Coppola's debut film. Although the film featured other classic tracks from the 70's, the soundtrack is entirely composed by Air. It's difficult to make a good soundtrack with tracks from various artists and even more difficult to do so by one band and Air are able to pull it off by mixing instrumentals with a few standout vocal tracks - they also don't overuse the films voice over saving it for a prominent role at the end. What surfaces is an exotic mix of warm soulful soundtracks from the 70's with the cold synth heavy soundtracks of the 80's.
