Dune 2 soundtrack: Part One and Part Two score track list from Hans Zimmer

And now Dune: Part Two has landed – and the soundtrack is just as atmospheric.

The film, which is based on the second half of the novel of the same name by Frank Herbert, picks up where Dune: Part One left off, and follows anti-hero Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) and Fremen warrior Chani (Zendaya) as they wage war against House Harkonnen.

Talking about the soundtrack for Dune: Part Two, director Denis Villeneuve said: "I wanted Hans to write something unforgettable for Chani. A love theme, the love of Paul for Chani.

"I wanted something heartbreaking, and the most beautiful love theme ever written, and honestly I think he did it with the track A Time of Quiet Between the Storms.

"It’s one of the most beautiful scores he’s written. I remember when I first listened to it, I was in tears."

So, without further ado, here is a guide to the soundtrack of Dune: Part Two and its predecessor.

Speaking about the soundtrack for the first film to The Hollywood Reporter, Hans Zimmer said: "If this is a movie about a planet 10,000 years from now, and it was a desert planet, [I thought] I should go and invent instruments and sounds you’ve never heard of.

“The only thing that should be a consistent, recognisable thing should be the female voice. Denis and I never even had to talk about it for any time at all.

"We always felt very strongly that the female characters are the driving force of the story. Even when Lady Jessica [Rebecca Ferguson] isn’t on the screen, there will be a femininity within the music — that felt very important."

Is the Dune: Part Two soundtrack available to purchase on vinyl?

Not yet, but the Dune: Part Two soundtrack is being released as a double-LP and double-CD set, with both versions featuring exclusive liner notes from Zimmer and director Denis Villeneuve.

The soundtrack is available to preorder on vinyl on the Mutant website now, but it isn't expected to actually be released until 24th May.
