Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross’ soundtrack to Challengers is getting a vinyl release.
The movie, which follows a love triangle between a tennis coach and two players – played by Zendaya, Josh O’Connor and Mike Faist – was released earlier this year to critical praise.
The acclaimed score to Luca Guadagnino’s film is now set to be released on vinyl with fans able to pre-order now.
The record is presented in a deluxe gatefold package, which features an interior gatefold collage of on-set photos taken by Alessio Bolzoni. There are also three player trading cards of central characters Tashi, Patrick and Art, and a Phil’s Tire Town bumper sticker.
Speaking previously about the techno-influenced score, Reznor explained: “Luca said, ‘What if all the music was driving, thumping techno, like a heartbeat that makes the movie fun?’”
“It’s about the excitement and simultaneously there’s an order and a thoughtfulness to the score,” Ross added.
The soundtrack was previously made available on streaming platforms, while the two composers enlisted Boys Noize to do a half-hour remix of the score.
The DJ was chosen to “deconstruct and subsequently reimagine” Reznor and Ross’ work, Boys Noize explaining: “It’s been a fun challenge to turn this into one fluid experience and take it even further by redesigning the tracks, creating new elements and changing certain parts – especially on ‘Compress / Repress,’ which turns super epic in the end.
“Working with Trent and Atticus has been a dream come true; they’ve been so great and helpful during the entire process.”
In NME‘s four-star review of Challengers, we said: “The icing on an already delicious cake is the superb, pulse-pounding synth score from Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, which Guadagnino deploys in interesting ways – not just in the tennis match sequences, but also frequently having it start up in the middle of a dialogue scene to further underscore the tension. In short, this is game, set and match Guadagnino. Well played.”
