LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: With Jeff Goldblum stepping into the role of Zeus, ‘Kaos’, Netflix's new fantasy series, needed a soundtrack that was nothing short of divine — and it definitely delivered. From iconic hits by Dire Straits and ABBA to an original ballad by Killian Scott, who plays Orpheus, the show's music is a genre-bending mix that you'll want on repeat. The soundtrack doesn’t just serve as background noise; it sets the tone for the entire series, capturing its irreverent, contemporary take on Ancient Greek myths.

The music in ‘Kaos’ mirrors its eclectic storytelling, blending modern tracks with classical pieces to reflect each character's unique personality. Zeus commands the scene with grand operatic music, while Dionysus’s moments are set to vibrant, eclectic tunes beloved by the LGBTQ+ community. The humans get a mix of rock, soul, and indie, except for Orpheus, who stays true to his ballad roots. With a score by Isabella Summers that brings it all together, the soundtrack becomes an essential piece of what makes ‘Kaos’ a standout show.
