The Musical Journey of Marvel Studios' Echo

The Significance of the Soundtrack in Echo

Marvel Studios' Echo features a varied soundtrack across its five episodes that is utilized to set the tone of disparate scenes. More so than any other Marvel Disney+ TV show, Echo is keen to employ a soundtrack where needed. Most other Disney+ installments have been more reliant on orchestral scores over the soundtracks, especially in the cases of Loki or Moon Knight. By the time of the Echo show's climactic ending, it is clear that this is not the case with Marvel Studios' first Spotlight entry.

The heavier usage of the soundtrack in Echo over the aforementioned Disney+ shows also set in the MCU certainly makes sense given the show's more grounded tone. By the time Echo's post-credit scene wraps up, it has been made abundantly clear that the show is much more inclined to tell a story about familial bonds and thus more realistic characters than the gods and titans of the franchise's past. As such, utilizing songs that appear in everyday life is a logical choice for Echo, as are the soundtrack inclusions that tie more to Maya Lopez's Choctaw heritage.

Every Song In Echo

As alluded to, all five of Echo's episodes include a handful of songs. A lot of the soundtrack choices in the show are dietetic, thus being able to be heard by the characters on screen. However, there are a few occasions where non-diegetic tracks are used. With that said, here is every song in Marvel Studios' Echo.

The extensive list of songs featured in Echo reflects the careful curation of music to complement Maya's journey. Each song is thoughtfully selected to evoke specific emotions and enhance the narrative, from Maya's childhood experiences to her encounters with the criminal underworld and her return to her Choctaw heritage. The soundtrack not only adds depth to the series but also serves as a powerful storytelling tool, enriching the visual narrative with auditory resonance.

Where To Listen To The Echo Soundtrack

Unlike other MCU soundtracks like those associated with the Guardians of the Galaxy films, the Echo soundtrack was not compiled specifically for the show. Instead, it is likely that each song was simply chosen individually based on which track fit each scene the best. As such, Echo's soundtrack can be found on most major streaming platforms such as Spotify or Apple Music given the variety of tracks in the most recent Marvel Disney+ show of Phase 5.
