A music soundtrack is a collection of songs and instrumental pieces that accompany a film, television show, video game, or other media. It enhances the emotional experience and helps to set the tone for various scenes. Soundtracks can include original compositions, licensed songs, or a mix of both, and they often play a crucial role in storytelling. Soundtracks are typically released as albums, allowing fans to enjoy the music outside of the media it was created for. Notable examples include the Star Wars soundtrack by John Williams and the Guardians of the Galaxy soundtrack, which features popular songs from the past.
