The iconic music was composed by Sam Watts. And it’s no surprise it’s top-tier dramatic music, as Sam has previously worked on the likes of Planet Earth, Wizards vs Aliens and The Sarah Jane Adventures.

The Traitors 2 fans ‘loving’ the soundtrack

It comes after a lot of viewers were applauding the soundtrack on this year’s Traitors series. One person tweeted this week: “The soundtrack is always perfect on this show.”

Another wrote on X – formerly known as Twitter: “The soundtrack on this series of The Traitors is incredible.”

A third quipped: “The main thing I’m taking away from watching @TheTraitorsUK for the first time is that if you’ve ever released a ‘dark’ cover of a pop song (ideally from the 80s), you’re pretty much guaranteed to be on the soundtrack.”

The soundtrack alone is a reason to watch,” said another. “No but seriously, where can I listen to the soundtrack?!” asked another.

As of yet, no one appears to have compiled a full Spotify playlist for the series, but here’s hoping they do by the finale!
