Since the soundtrack was first introduced in 1997, it has become
a cultural moment in the music calendar and has given a platform to
many upcoming artists whose careers have taken off after featuring.
Continuing the momentum from last year’s soundtrack that explored a
wealth of international artists, FC 25’s playlist spotlights an
eclectic range of genres including Elyanna’s experimental
Arabic-Latin pop fusion; South African Moonchild Sanelly’s
‘future ghetto funk’; and Afro-Colombian group Kombilesa
Mi’s traditional Palanque music and urban rap synthesis.
The track list also showcases a range of international
tastemakers, from Disclosure and Ice Spice to
Kasabian, in addition to superstar artists including
two-time Oscar-winner Billie Eilish; Prince of Reggaeton
J Balvin; British super producer Fred again..;
Charli xcx, whose critically-acclaimed album ‘Brat’ inspired
a cultural personality trend this summer; up and coming Japanese
drill rapper JUMADIBA; unparalleled Afrobeat artist
Obongjayar; Spanish all-female rockers Hinds; and
celebrated jungle revivalist Nia Archives. A brand-new song
from FC-superfan Polish rapper MATA, who featured EA SPORTS
FC in his music video, will also be on the soundtrack.
“FC 25 is a global celebration of new music that erases borders,
embraces multiple genres, and delivers several surprises,” said
Steve Schnur, Worldwide Executive and President of Music for
Electronic Arts. “The EA Music team has spent nearly a year
curating an epic soundtrack that will define the sound of the
coming season and elevate the spirit of the game like never
before.”
The FC 25 soundtrack includes several unreleased songs
anticipated to drop later this year, including a track by
Glastonbury headliners and the sixth most awarded band ever,
Coldplay. Two unreleased tracks from Delfina Dib – an
Argentine artist whose music reflects her diverse Lebanese and
Spanish-Italian roots – will also feature in FC 25. Other
unreleased songs will come from Mercury Prize-nominated FKA
Twigs; and platinum-selling, Welsh rockers, Catfish and the
Bottlemen.
- Reggaeton legend J Balvin said, “It feels incredible to
be featured in such an iconic game. Having my music be part of the
FC 25 soundtrack and sharing this honor with so many other talented
global artists is something I’ll never forget. I can’t wait to
experience it all when I play.”
- Delfina Dib, fresh from last year’s release of her debut
album ‘Directo al Cora’, said, "There are so many amazing global
artists on the FC 25 soundtrack and it's truly incredible that two
of my songs were included this year. Every year the tracklist
becomes more and more international and to feature alongside some
of my heroes is a dream come true."
