Black Mirror has been known for its fantastic choices of music and the new interactive episode released on December 28th is no different. Here’s your guide to the soundtrack including every song in the episode.

The new episode is set in the 1980s and has some fantastic songs from the era. Black Mirror fans will know the last time Netflix focused on a lot of 80’s music was back in season 3 during San Junipero. We’ve included the playlist to that episode plus extra songs chosen by Charlie Brooker too.

The compilation tape on the bus

The compilation tape on the bus does, in fact, exist. In the United Kingdom, there’s an ongoing compilation music album called “Now”. The one featured in the movie is the second iteration. The album also features the work of Queen, Nik Kershaw, Carmel, Madness, Nena and even includes the exact same Thompson Twins song.

In 2018, we’re now up to 101 compilations with the most recent released on November 23rd.
