Quentin Tarantino knows how to a matching soundtrack on CD even better sounds than in the film put together for his films. But he has got from colleagues Michael Mann competition. Its soundtrack to Collateral is indeed audible poppy, but that's only marginally. Man delivers exactly what its urban Höllentrip still needs to musical accompaniment. Melancholic tracks, hammering beats. A stylistic balancing act, not even in the next man kick. Although spacers such as Tom Rothrock's "Briefcase" and Cuba Percussions' classical interpretation "Air" there is not as big a contrast as between the pieces in Kill Bill, but all in all, the soundtrack gives a varied mix for a trip through nighttime LA Especially surprised by James Newton Howard, who produces with his contribution for this new OST from its hitherto been exhausted translucent soundscapes. For those who appreciate musical variety and like the movie OST this is perfect. All others it is highly recommended.
