O Soundtrack My Heart is the second album by PVT (their first on Warp Records). It was released on 9 August 2008 in Australia, and 18 August in the UK / Europe through Warp Records, under the band name Pivot.

The album was produced by Pivot in Sydney via London throughout 2006, tracked by Scott Horscroft, mixed by John McEntire (Tortoise, The Sea and Cake) in May 2007 and mastered by Noel Sommerville (Interpol, White Stripes).

The album's cover art is notable in that it contains images by French artist Michel Granger who was also responsible for the iconic sleeve of Jean Michel Jarre's album Oxygène. Indeed, the sleeve of O Soundtrack My Heart bears great thematic similarity to the cover of Jarre's Oxygène 7–13 album.

In 2009 the song "Fool In Rain" was covered by Scott Herren's 'Diamond Watch Wrists' for the Warp20 (Recreated) compilation.
