1997 Soundtrack – Speed 2: Cruise Control
Speed 2: Cruise Control is a 1997 American action thriller film produced and directed by Jan de Bont, and written by Randall McCormick and Jeff Nathanson. It is the sequel to Speed (1994) and stars Sandra Bullock (who reprises her role from the original), Jason Patric, and Willem Dafoe. Cruise Control tells the story of Annie (Bullock) and Alex (Patric), a couple who go on vacation to the Caribbean aboard a luxury cruise ship, which is hijacked by a villain named Geiger (Dafoe). As they are trapped aboard the ship, Annie and Alex work with the ship’s first officer to try to stop it after they discover it is programmed to crash into an oil tanker.
There are two soundtracks released. Composer Mark Mancina, who scored Speed 2, wrote a techno instrumental based on the score. The track was entitled “Speed TK Re-mix”, and was performed by Japanese musician Tetsuya “TK” Komuro with non-lexical vocals by Lynn Mabry. The instrumental was TK’s debut in the United States, and was originally entitled “Speed 2 Theme”. “Speed TK Re-mix” played during the film’s ending credits, but Mancina hoped it would be featured in the film.
