Not only was it the hippest television show among teens, but the 18-34 demographic also applauded the prime-time drama. Music from The O.C.: Mix 1 sets the show's cool backdrop while also highlighting a select group of artists well suited for The O.C.'s viewing audience. Select tracks from the likes of Jet, the Dandy Warhols, Turin Brakes, and South will fare well with the new-millennium MTV generation. Phantom Planet provides the theme song with its sun-kissed, harmony-drenched "California," and that alone should be enough for those O.C. enthusiasts who cannot get enough of the nighttime soap opera. More stylish indie rock cuts from Jem, Doves, singer/songwriter Alexi Murdoch, and Spoon, as well as bonus clips from the show, round out this fashionable soundtrack. ~ MacKenzie Wilson | | A sampling of songs featured on the hit TV show, THE O.C.: MIX 1 is an eclectic collection of alternative music that expertly reflects the various moods and personalities of the program's teen characters. Given that the series takes place in California, this compilation presents a surprisingly large number of UK artists, including South (the orchestral waves of "Paint the Shine"), Doves (the majestic "Caught By the River"), and Turin Brakes (the melancholy "Rain City"). Welsh performer Jem also makes a strong showing with the bouncy, Dido-gone-funky sound of "Just a Ride." Bringing things stateside is singer/songwriter Joseph Arthur, who contributes the hushed, lovelorn lullaby "Honey and the Moon." Other Americans include the Dandy Warhols (the electronic-laced rocker "We Used to Be Friends") and Phantom Planet, who bring things full circle with the power pop of the show's theme song, "California." |
