In an April 10, 2025 report by Film Music Reporter, Netflix confirmed that six composers contributed original scores to Black Mirror season 7. Each episode features a curated soundtrack that blends classical music, punk, synth-heavy instrumentals, and ambient scores. Some songs are performed live within the story world, while others play during critical plot developments or end credits.
The track Anyone Who Knows What Love Is (Will Understand) returns as a recurring musical motif, having appeared in previous seasons. In Black Mirror season 7, it is performed by a hotel duo in the episode Common People, continuing its legacy as a thematic thread across the Black Mirror universe.
Ames Bessada, who also worked on Joan Is Awful, returned to score Common People, while Daniel Pemberton was behind the music for both Bête Noire and USS Callister: Into Infinity. Ariel Marx provided the compositions for Hotel Reverie, while Plaything was scored by Brian Reitzell. Matthew Herbert and Lucinda Chua collaborated on the score for Eulogy.
Several musical selections were included to reflect the Black Mirror's thematic legacy. The soundtrack selection process was overseen by show creator Charlie Brooker and music supervisors and was completed during post-production. No AI-generated tools were used in the creation or curation of the music.
The Black Mirror season 7 soundtrack highlights the show's ongoing commitment to sound as a narrative device. As each episode explores a different facet of technology and society, its accompanying music further grounds the story’s emotional tone, linking to earlier seasons and charting new sonic territory.
