Hilda and the Lost Ring/Soundtrack

Hilda and the Lost Ring: The Soundtrack Album is a soundtrack album released on March 25, 2022 by BMG Rights Management for the film of the same name, less than two months before its release. The album contains songs that are played in-film. It also contains The Last Night, an original song performed for the film by American indie artist Greta Kline (or Frankie Cosmos).

Background
The idea of a soundtrack album of the film came in around mid 2021, when post-production wrapped up on Hilda and the Lost Ring. Luke Pearson wanted to release an album of what songs would be in the film. He used folk and 80s-like music to give the album a nostalgic feeling, as well as adding then-unreleased music, such as Purple Zone and the new version of Stay. Pearson got permissions from Tears for Fears and Soft Cell to use their unreleased music onto the album. He was in talks with executives at BMG Rights Management to release the album.

On January 28, 2022, BMG announced the soundtrack album, featuring songs from bands such as The Who, Electric Light Orchestra, and Soft Cell. It would be released on CD, vinyl, cassette, and digital.

Release
BMG released the album on March 25, 2022, less than two months before the film's release. It was released on CD, digital, and cassette. However, due to long vinyl production times, the vinyl release was on May 13.
