Kaos has finally arrived on Netflix and it’s safe to say we’re obsessed. Created by The End of the F***ing World‘s Charlie Covell, the dark comedy follows an increasingly paranoid Zeus (Jeff Goldblum) as he sets about trying to prevent the inevitable prophecy which foretells his downfall.
Fusing the modern world with the rich tapestry of the Greek Gods, the series focuses on three mortals who unravel their own connection in the ancient prophecy.
Jeff Goldblum as Zeus, Greek mythology, a stellar soundtrack. What’s not to like?
Through the series we see contemporary music fused with classical, reflecting the disharmony between the two worlds and fusion of new and old. Each song has been carefully curated to set the tone of the particular God in that scene, with Zeus typically being backed by classical music and opera songs, while humans tend to feature more songs from indie and rock genres.
Throw in an original score by Isabella Summers (a founding member of Florence And The Machine), and you’re in for a real treat of a track list.
Here’s every single song on the Kaos soundtrack to help you build out your next vibey playlist.
