#Soundtracks6Music - help create a soundtrack-inspired playlist

Tom Robinson invites listeners to create a playlist featuring tracks from their all-time favourite soundtracks.

With news this week that Lorde, Arcade Fire and Foals are all involved in separate soundtrack projects, Tom asks the 6 Music listeners to create an unmissable playlist celebrating the best music from the big screen.
The online world has been buzzing after the tracklist was revealed for the Lorde-curated soundtrack for the new Hunger Games film, Mockingjay, Pt 1, featuring music from The Chemical Brothers, Grace Jones, Kanye West, Bat For Lashes and more.
Meanwhile, Arcade Fire tweeted about band member Will Butler (brother of frontman Win) providing music for a new movie about a Barack Obama impersonator. And more digital headlines were made following the news that our friend over at Radio 1, Zane Lowe, would be re-scoring cult film 'Drive', featuring new music from the likes of Chvrches, Laura Mvula and Foals.
So, to mark this week's bounty of interesting soundtrack news, listeners are invited to send their suggestions for their all-time favourite tracks from films. It could be music from 'Quadrophenia', 'Control', '24 Hour Party People' or 'Trainspotting'. Or what about tracks by those who have scored films such as The Chemical Brothers with 'Hanna' or Trent Reznor with 'The Social Network'?
Send suggestions and comments via the hashtag #Soundtracks6Music on Twitter as well as through the 6 Music and Now Playing Facebook pages, dragging tracks on the show's collaborative playlists on Spotify and Rdio, or the other usual live show contact methods.
