Deadpool (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is the soundtrack to the 2016 film Deadpool, composed by Junkie XL, under his legal name Tom Holkenborg.
Following the release, the soundtrack made the 30 mark on the Billboard 200, and topped the soundtrack list also from Billboard.
In January 2016, Holkenborg confirmed that he would compose the score for Deadpool. The composition mainly utilized 80's synthesizers that added to the immersion.
Holkenborg used an ARP 2600 and a Synclavier, for Deadpool's 'riffs' and battles, while an Oberheim is mainly for more emotional scenes. A complete orchestra was mainly used for Colussus and Negasonic Teenage Warhead, to give feeling and honor from previous films.
The soundtrack also includes "Deadpool Rap" by YouTube personalities TeamHeadKick, featuring updated lyrics that reference the film rather than the video game,Shoop by Salt-N-Pepa, X Gon' Give It To Ya by DMX, and more.
The soundtrack album was released digitally on February 12, 2016, featuring both Holkenborg's score and the additional songs. Physical copies of the soundtrack became available through Milan Records on March 4, 2016.
The soundtrack debuted at number 30 on the Billboard 200, selling 18,000 units in the first week.
Performed by The Hollywood Studio Symphony. Conducted by Nick Glennie-Smith.
