Meanwhile, I remember the film of The Beach being received somewhat disapppointingly in 2000, but the soundtrack featured two festive fifty entries that year, New Order’s ‘Brutal’ (and not as you might have expected the soundtrack to contain, ‘The Beach’) and Orbital and Angelo Badalamenti’s ‘Beached.’

New Order -‘Brutal.’ mp3 (2000 Festive Fifty no.26)

Orbital and Angelo Badalamenti -‘Beached.’ mp3 (2000 Festive Fifty no.45)
