Varèse Sarabande will release the Eddie the Eagle – Original Score Album digitally on March 11 and on CD March 25, 2016. The album features the original music composed by Matthew Margeson.
"We wanted to create a period score for Eddie," Margeson described. "The film is set in the '80s and the goal was to create a throwback '80s score. I knew it was going to be a fun task from the get-go and it was."
"I ended up going on craigslist and eBay and getting a bunch of old digital synthesizers from the time period," said Margeson. "I played all of the keyboards, and did the programming of the synths myself. We did have some guitar and bass players, and some live woodwinds for a few of the emotional moments."
Eddie the Eagle is in theaters now.
