The Amazing Spider-Man 2 - The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is the official soundtrack from the 2014 film of the same name composed by Hans Zimmer and a supergroup called The Magnificent Six, consisting of Pharrell Williams, Mike Einziger, Junkie XL, Johnny Marr, Andrew Kawczynski and Steve Mazzaro. It was released on April 22, 2014, through Columbia Records and Madison Gate Records.
Marc Webb, director of the film, revealed on July 20, 2013 that Zimmer would compose the music for the film, following James Horner, who composed the music for the first film. It was later revealed that they would be forming a supergroup with Pharrell Williams to compose the film's music. Zimmer revealed the film's main theme on April 4, 2014, saying that the film's score would be different from his previous work. The soundtrack was released on April 22 in two different versions. The standard version includes a single disc with fourteen tracks of score from the film and six songs by other artists that were both used in and inspired by the film. The deluxe edition features two discs, with the first containing only the score, but with six additional tracks (several score tracks also present in the standard edition are notably longer in the deluxe edition). The second disc includes four bonus score tracks, two of them character suites, as well as all of the non-score songs from the standard version, with two additional songs.
The soundtrack features two songs called "It's On Again" performed by Alicia Keys featuring Kendrick Lamar and a trap remix version of "You Know You Like It" performed by AlunaGeorge and DJ Snake which both serve as one of the film's main themes, as well as playing in the end credits.
