Editorial Reviews

Judging by his complete score for The Rugrats, it's clear that Mark Mothersbaugh isn't afraid to have a little fun when composing his soundtracks. This disc gathers 35 tracks of original score music from the movie--a strange and wonderful mix of familiar soundtrack themes (Indiana Jones, anyone?), playful sound effects inspired by Carl Stalling, and epic symphonic passages (thanks to the London Metropolitan Orchestra). It's hard not to laugh during the harpsichord passage of "Monkey Circus Ad" or smile after stumbling upon excerpts of Also Sprach Zarathustra in "Salvation on a Bridge," a tune that somehow flows between Strauss, an all-too-brief accordion solo, and full fledged rock & roll. Somehow, it all works gloriously together. Mothersbaugh's score--released almost a year after the movie's release--was clearly worth the wait. Excellent. --Jason Verlinde

My Brother just have his third birthday and he loved this cd. All the songs are great. I am 15 and I even like the cd. If you know that your child or your friend or relative is having a birthday you should buy him/her his cd because if it a good cd that is worth the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best Rugrats CD EVER!, April 2, 2000

For me being a huge Rugrats fan, I don't know how to say it, but this wonderful music makes me whole. Mark M. did a great job blending his all-too familar Rugrats music with a full-fledged Orchestra. I would say its much better than the Original Soundrack released before the movie. I strongly encourage all Rugrats fans to buy this CD, it is so powerful in every way!
