While speaking to Spotify's For the Record, director Celine Song spoke about the making of the soundtrack of the film. She also revealed that she has penned many of the songs in the film as well.

The helmer also talked about her process of creating the soundtrack with her team, as she explains:

"Sound is the most powerful storytelling tool, arguably even more than image—my director of photography, Shabier Kirchner, believes this, too. I created a playlist that I shared with all my department heads early in preproduction. Eventually, for my art department helmed by my production designer, Tony Gasparro, I created playlists for each of the characters that I then shared with all departments. I know they served as inspiration for creating the backstory and fuller life for the characters in every corner of the film."

Celine Song also expressed her vision behind the choice of soundtrack for the film, as she further adds:

"There’s such a rich history of songs about loving someone in spite of practical or material challenges, so I was drawn to those songs for the film."

The original soundtrack of Materialists, composed by Daniel Pemberton, is available on mainstream streaming platforms including Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music, and Apple Music. On Spotify, though, the original score along with the songs featured are available as well.
