Mr. Robot soundtrack: Complete guide to all the songs featured in the show

Mr. Robot is a drama series created by Sam Esmail that premiered on May 27, 2015. The show follows Elliot Alderson (Rami Malek), a cybersecurity engineer by day and vigilante hacker by night. His world flips when he meets Mr. Robot (Christian Slater), the mysterious leader of an underground group called fsociety.

What starts as a plan to take down corporate greed spirals into a tangled mess of conspiracy, mental health struggles, and blurred realities. Characters like Darlene (Carly Chaikin), Angela (Portia Doubleday), and Whiterose (BD Wong) add more chaos to the mix, each with their own baggage and secrets.

The soundtrack, composed by Emmy-winner Mac Quayle, is the one thing that really sets Mr Robot apart. The music is glitchy, brooding, and pulse-pounding—perfectly syncing with Elliot's spiraling mind. It's not just background noise; it drives the tension, underlines the paranoia, and hits hardest when the screen goes silent.

Quayle's score blends warped electronics, ambient noise, and analog synths into a sound that's uniquely unsettling. And when it cuts to a needle drop—from Pixies to Phil Collins—it always hits with purpose in Mr. Robot.
