Music Madness

The epic soundtrack to the movie Divergent was releases about two weeks ago. I think the soundtrack overall fits the movie very well which is very hard to do. I got the deluxe edition and I have to say that is was definitely worth it. the deluxe version came with three exclusive tracks. For me cover art is a huge part of what gets me to by certain version of an album. I am not a huge fan of the cover art for the deluxe version but I think that it is better than the regular album. Ellie Goulding was the main artist on the soundtrack, and even though I, not being a huge fan of her, was pleasantly surprised by her songs on the soundtrack. the soundtrack featured the song "Dead in the water" from her album "Halcyon Days" .  the album featured artist M83, Tame Impala feat.(Kendrick Lamar), Banks, Woodkid, Skrillex, Snow Patrol, and more.One of the songs I feel fit the movie particularly well was "I Need You" by M83. This song was played during the zip lining scene and was a wonderful addition to the movie. Most movie soundtracks don't do as well of a job fitting to the movie but this one did exceptionally well. Overall I would give this soundtrack a 9 out of 10. I would definitely recommend that you go out and buy the deluxe edition because it is worth it. I hope you all enjoyed this Music Madness tune in next time for some more music news and reviews.
