Cool Spot: Spot Goes to Hollywood/Soundtrack

The soundtrack for the 2018 American animated film Cool Spot, based on the 1993 video game of the same name and produced by 20th Century Fox Animation, consists of an original score composed by Ludwig Göransson and original songs as well as older songs produced by Pharrell Williams.

Göransson worked with Pharrell to compose the film's score. He took advice from Michael Giacchino who is known to compose both The Incredibles (2004) and it's sequel Incredibles 2 (2018). The orchestra was recorded at Abbey Road Studios.

Wanting to match the film in terms of addressing important themes, Williams decided to produce a full curated soundtrack album rather than just the few songs. Because of the film's set release schedule, Williams had less time to work on the album than he usually would. He began work with producer Sounwave while on tour, before completing the individual songs in collaboration with many different artists. One of these collaborators was Göransson, who worked on one of the songs and included elements from the album in the score. Some of the songs on the soundtrack were older songs that were later rerecorded and remastered for the purpose of it's inclusion in the film.

Williams' soundtrack was released as Cool Spot: The Album by Columbia Records on June 22, 2018, to large sales, including the top position on the Billboard 200 chart. Göransson's score was then released as Cool Spot (Original Score) by Fox Music on June 22. The score and the album both received praise.
