Mad Max: Fury Road (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is an upcoming soundtrack album for the 2015 film, Mad Max: Fury Road, composed by Junkie XL. It is scheduled to be released on 12 May 2015 through WaterTower Music.[2]

Overview

Since Mad Max: Fury Road experienced a lengthy development, multiple composers were attached to the film at various times including John Powell and Marco Beltrami.[3][4] In October 2013, it was officially announced that Junkie XL would be composing the film's music.[5] After being contacted by Warner Bros. Senior Vice President Darren Higman, Junkie XL flew to Sydney where he viewed a three-hour workprint of the film and met with director George Miller.[6] Because of his work on 300: Rise of an Empire and his on-the-spot ideas for Mad Max: Fury Road, Junkie XL was hired by Miller and immediately began work on writing the film's themes.[6][7] "I got in August of 2013 and we [didn't finish] until August 2014," said Junkie XL. "When you're so early in the game, you have so much room of experimentation."[8]
