Sci-fi/ambient movie/series soundtracks that are fantastic

Totally with you.
Some of my more recent favourite score pieces are the end themes for The Mandalorian and Ahsoka. I’d rush to get the remote and let them play out, savoring every little detail.

Uncut Gems soundtrack by OPN is incredible. Saw it in a theatre and it was a really special experience at that volume

I’m absolute in love of the voice of the girl during the opening credit. I think it’s the girl from Soap and Skin. Maybe I’m wrong but that voice… :fire:

Hardcore Henry (sort of sci fi) ost is really good, Upgrade has good ost, (unpopular opinion, but) BladeRunner 2049 ost is very good, already mentioned but Arrival ost is amazing, I love the Animatrix ost…

I really liked the spookiness of the Annihilation soundtrack by Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow. Can’t find the whole thing on YouTube but there are clips here:

Not sure if this will count, as there is no movie, but as far as I see it - it’s a soundtrack for flight to space :wink: Used to be in my “rare & too expensive” folder for few years on crappy mp3’s - recently reissued again on vinyl: Voyage (A Journey Into Discoid Funk) | Brian Bennett | Isle Of Jura (link to AU press, but on Discogs you can find few different reissues of this) + YouTube link to the title track: https://youtu.be/1ZioqPPugEI

Solaris, best sound design/visual work ever.

Obvs…I mean, it’s why we’re all here really, isn’t it…

Also, on a similar tip, some of the music from all the early 90s Russell T Davies kids sci-fi shows was fantastic.
