The Party Games or so

When I heard that Lorde produced the soundtrack, I already feared the worst, because I do not like their music. Unfortunately, here comes now also to the fact that the songs have no apparent relation to the film, the mood is not over. There was the first "Songs from District 12 and Beyond" much better with the acoustic "Daughter's Lament" or Taylor Swifts "Safe and Sound". In addition, there was also a recognizable message.

But here we have Stromae, Lorde, HAIM, Major Lazer, Charli XCX and Ariana Grande - shallow pop, hip hop (also Windows Media Player is ranked among "Rap and Hip Hop" a). The dislike like or indeed. But spontaneously I would not really associate the music of performers with "The Hunger Games". Since except "Yellow Flicker Beat" could be heard in the movie uncredited none of the songs that you really wonder who came up with the idea to put together this CD.

For fans of the genre certainly nice, but you would have brought it better than "Lorde's Dance Compilation" among the people.
