Description

In partnership with Water Tower Music, Waxwork Records is proud to present MORTAL KOMBAT (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) featuring music by award-winning composer Benjamin Wallfisch.

From New Line Cinema, Mortal Kombat is a 2021 American martial arts fantasy film based on the video-game series. The film serves as a reboot and is the third installment in the Mortal Kombat film series. Directed by Simon McQuoid, the film follows Cole Young, a washed-up mixed martial arts fighter who is unaware of his hidden lineage or why the assassin Sub-Zero is hunting him down. Concerned for the safety of his family, he seeks out a clique of fighters that were chosen to defend the Earthrealm against the Outworld.

The score for Mortal Kombat is composed by Benjamin Wallfisch. In March of 2021, director Simon McQuoid revealed that Wallfisch, a fan of the original game, began experimenting with the theme's DNA before officially joining the project, ensuring the score blended orchestral elements with intense, modern EDM. The score is highlighted by Wallfisch's reimagined, EDM-infused update of the original theme, entitled "Techno Syndrome 2021".

Composer Benjamin Wallfisch explains, “When I was invited to come on board ‘Mortal Kombat,’ I was very aware of the responsibility that comes with scoring a franchise so deeply embedded in pop culture and with such a passionate fanbase. My first question was what can we do with ‘Techno Syndrome,’ a piece of music so much part of the DNA of the game and the original movies? What motifs could be reinvented and blown up to a full-scale symphonic sound world in the score, and might there be room for a full reinvention of the whole song as an EDM single in 2021? A huge thank you to The Immortals for giving us their blessing to reimagine their classic track in this way, as a celebration of the world of Mortal Kombat and its fans, and of the uplifting power of Electronic Dance Music, which the original did so much to light the fuse of 30 years ago.”
