The Moment (The Score) Lyrics & Tracklist – A. G. Cook

Album Information

The Moment (The Score) is the original film score composed by British electronic music producer and songwriter A. G. Cook for the mockumentary film The Moment, directed by Aidan Zamiri and starring Charli XCX. This release marks Cook’s first full-length scoring project for a feature film, distributed by A24 Music and released on January 30, 2026, concurrent with the theatrical release of the film. The score accompanies the satirical narrative of a rising pop star navigating industry pressures and fame, intertwining Cook’s electronic soundscapes with scenes of performance and introspection. The album’s composition draws on cinematic ambient and rhythmic textures, reflective of both film scoring conventions and Cook’s background in experimental pop production.

Release and Context

The score was announced in early 2026 with singles released ahead of the full album, including “Dread” and “Offscreen”. The film itself premiered at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival before its wide release on January 30, and features Charli XCX’s involvement as producer, lead actor, and creative originator of the film’s concept. While the album is primarily instrumental, its closing track “Dread” incorporates a notable sample from the 2012 hit “I Love It” (performed by Icona Pop featuring Charli XCX), linking Cook’s score to pop music lineage. Cook’s work on The Moment (The Score) presented new challenges compared to his previous studio albums, focusing on thematic and atmospheric continuity across diverse scenes.

Musical Style

The musical style of The Moment (The Score) blends electronic ambient, experimental sound design, and rhythmically driven motifs. Cook’s instrumental palette ranges from brooding synth textures to pulsating dance-influenced rhythms. The album’s tracks often mirror the emotional and narrative arc of the film, with introspective passages juxtaposed against propulsive rhythmic sections. The score reflects Cook’s electronic sensibilities while adapting them to the cues and pacing required by cinematic scoring, balancing compositional coherence with scene-specific adaptability.
