Looper (soundtrack)

The soundtrack to the 2012 science fiction action film Looper was composed by Nathan Johnson. It is notable for its unconventional and often jarring sound, blending traditional orchestral elements with electronic textures and percussive sounds created from unconventional sources. Johnson aimed to create a score that reflected the film's themes of time travel, memory, and the blurring of past, present, and future. The soundtrack features both ambient and more rhythmic pieces, contributing to the film's overall atmosphere of suspense and moral ambiguity. Critics praised the soundtrack for its originality and effectiveness in enhancing the film's narrative. A selection of tracks from the score was released digitally and on CD, omitting some cues used in the film.
