      • 21 Jump Street (Original Motion Picture Score) is the score album to the 2012 film 21 Jump Street directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. The film's original score is composed by Mark Mothersbaugh and released through La-La Land Records on September 23, 2014 as a double disc album with the score of the film's sequel, 22 Jump Street.


      Background


      Lord and Miller's frequent collaborator Mark Mothersbaugh composed the score in their second collaboration after Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs (2009). Mothersbaugh was initially apprehensive of the original source material—the 1987–1991 television series—which he called it as "the lamest television show ever made". However, he agreed to do it owing to the duo's rapport. The soundtrack consisted mostly of electronic music.
      A modernized cover of the original television show's theme was performed by Rye Rye and Esthero. It was released as a digital single on March 10, 2012 in the iTunes Store. Another cover of the theme performed by Wallpaper was also released on March 12. Mothersbaugh's score was not released along with the film. On September 23, 2014, La-La Land Records released a double disc album limited to 2,000 copies, which consists of the film's original score along with that of the sequel, 22 Jump Street. The standalone edition of the album was released by Madison Gate Records on November 4, 2014.


      Reception


      Daniel Schweiger of AssignmentX wrote "the charm in these Jump Street scores is that he might as well be thrashing on top of an army tank as it's racing to save the world." The Hollywood Reporter described the score as "playful". Chris Cabin of Slant Magazine called it as "zippy". Peter Debruge of Variety wrote "Bringing composer Mark Mothersbaugh along for the high-energy assignment, the helmers make slick use of their new live-action collaborators."
