Our favourite soundtracks
1)
Twin Peaks
Angelo Badalamentis eerie and well-known theme song is one of the best in the history of television; if you don't get goose bumps from the opening scene, there's something wrong with you.
See how the song was made: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_9D5PiOjog&feature=related from 03.30.
Badalamenti is mainly associated with David Lynch and have in addition to TP, made the soundtracks to Blue Velvet, Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive. He also has a fantastic cameo-role as the mafioso Castigliani in the espresso scene in the latter movie. It may be a bombastic statement to say that David Lynch' movies wouldn't be that good without his music, but well...it's probably true.

Clockwork Orange
The title song Music for the funeral of Queen Mary composed by Henry Purcell and synthesized by Wendy/Walter Carlos is extremely funky. The rest of the soundtrack is an eclectic mix of classical music and synth tunes who perfectly complements the picture.
It's also worth mentioning the opening scene of 2001: A Space Odyssey and the epic Strauss composition. It seems like Kubrick really knew how to pick the right soundtrack to make an iconic opening scene.

Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou
Wes Anderson always puts together good sountracks, and his choices ranges from the Stones to Eliott Smith.
The original soundtrack, made by Mark Mothersbaug, is perfect for any movie where Bill Murray fights against pirates in a speedo. Ping Island/Lightning Strike Rescue Op is probably among my five top songs ever. Seu Jorge, who plays Pelé Dos Santos, also makes a contribution with the acoustic portugese versions of David Bowie songs - priceless.
