The Strange Magic soundtrack is a compilation of songs from the animated film of the same name. Released in 2015, this film tells the story of a magic realm where fairies, goblins, and other mythical creatures reside. Directed by Gary Rydstrom and produced by Lucasfilm Animation, the movie incorporates both classic songs and new original compositions to enhance the storytelling. **The main idea behind the Strange Magic soundtrack is to create a musical journey that captures the charm and whimsy of the magical world depicted in the film.** The soundtrack features a variety of genres and styles, spanning from pop to rock to classical. It includes popular hits such as "Can't Help Falling in Love" by Elvis Presley, "Three Little Birds" by Bob Marley, and "I'll Never Fall in Love Again" by Burt Bacharach.
"I chose Marius [de Vries] as the musical director because I loved what he did with 'Moulin Rouge,'" Lucas continues. "And I've turned to Gary [Rydstrom] for many years for his talent in sound design. I've always thought that sound and music were just as important as the visuals in a film. It was an extraordinary experience to work with such a dynamic duo on such an intricate collection of songs and the complementary score."
