With the success of the Twilight soundtrack last year, expectations for its successor is huge. The New Moon soundtrack is one of the most highly anticipated movie soundtracks and making it is no ordinary task. For months, several artists have submitted materials that could be possibly bu included in the soundtrack.

“We had offers from artists that were incredibly wonderful and incredibly commercial, and it would have been easy to say, ‘Oh, let’s go for it because we’ll sell more records’-but it wouldn’t have been true to the project,” says Paul Katz, founder/CEO of Eye2Ear Music, which consults with Summit Entertainment on music; Katz produced the soundtrack album and has been involved since the script stage to determine where music could fit into the film.

Keeping it as a combination of obviously great artists — but making it interesting for people to discover — was a very carefully considered view,” Katz says.

But one things is clear: The soundtrack has to reflect the melancholy feel of the film, with the lead character Bella losing her Edward. Thus, the focus was shifted to indie rock bands.
