Sometimes a work's soundtrack is composed of popular songs chosen from a different era than the film's setting. This can apply to either diegetic music (the characters in the work can hear the music) or non-diegetic music (they're part of the soundtrack, but the characters can't hear them). There are two basic variations: Music older than the setting. This may be used to illustrate that the main character is old, or out of touch with pop culture, or for nostalgia values. Music more modern than its setting. This is an impossible, paradox situation, a deliberate Anachronism Stew, as the music did not exist yet when the work is set. Can be explained by Time Travel or by pure Artistic License, and might double up with Period Piece, Modern Language. Some creators deliberately use music familiar to their modern audience rather than period-accurate pieces to make the emotions underscored by said music more immediately understandable or relatable. In Postmodernism, this is known as pastiche. Can also be done for Rule of Cool. Note that this specifically references when the film's soundtrack is from a different time than when the film is set not from when the film is made. A Period Piece does not count if it uses period-accurate music, like Rock of Ages. Sometimes the movie doesn't even attempt to justify why they're doing this. Typically this does not apply to classical music, which is usually going to be older than the time in which a work is set. A staple of Class Reunion movies, with the soundtrack being selected from the era in which the protagonists went to high school, not the time they're living in 10+ years later. Compare Soundtrack Dissonance. Can overlap with Nothing but Hits. |

Central Intelligence is about two guys who went to high school in the '90s reconnecting over a CIA mission just before their Class Reunion, and the songs are all pulled from the 1990s. | |

Fear Street Part One: 1994 has a soundtrack filled with Nothing but Hits from The '90s, some of which are from after the film's 1994 setting. White Zombie's "More Human Than Human" (which Josh is shown listening to) and Garbage's "Only Happy When It Rains" are from 1995, "Firestarter" by The Prodigy is from 1996, and White Town's "Your Woman" is from 1997. | |

Reign, set in the 1500s, occasionally likes to use instrumental covers of popular 2010s songs, usually for dancing scenes. The ballroom music playing in the background of 2x13 is an instrumental version of "Chandelier" by Sia, Lola's Wedding Dance is to an instrumental of Lorde's "Royals", and at one point Greer and Leith dance to an instrumental of The Lumineers's "Stubborn Love". | |

The Shrek films are already a massive Anachronism Stew, with their combination of Medieval setting and modern pop culture references, so it's no surprise that they use mostly songs from the latter 20th Century. Donkey, in particular, sings mostly pop tunes from the '70s and '80s. | |

Same goes for Mafia III, which takes place in 1968, but it fares much better than the previous game, since there's only a handful of songs that came out in 1969 or the early '70s, not counting the more modern covers of '60s songs that play towards the end of the game. | |

Secrets of Sulphur Springs has a scene where Savannah asks the DJ at a camp dance to play "I Don't Know" by The Prams...in 1990, 25 years before that song was released. Given the show's Time Travel premise, it's not impossible that she could have a tape of the song, but everyone at the dance treats the song like it's completely normal and not something they've never heard before. | |

Cowboy Bebop is set far enough in the future that humanity has colonized the Solar System at least as far as Saturn's moons, but the music heard in it is mostly those popular in the earlier half of the 20th century, such as jazz, blues, ragtime, and swing. The use of genres not normally associated with space-traveling science fiction is part of its portrayal of the return of the adventurous spirit of that time period once humanity can start exploring other worlds in earnest, as well as futuristic counterparts to The Roaring '20s in some places and The Great Depression in some others. | |

Corsage is set in the 1870s, and its exploration of female ennui through a modern lens is helped by 20th and 21st century songs. Some are even rendered diegetically in period-typical styles, such as the 1960s number "As Tears Go By" sung by a harpist. | |

Get a Horse! uses "Minnie's Yoo-Hoo" as the opening theme song for the black and white Mickey Mouse cartoon. The song debuted in the short "Mickey's Follies" and would be used as the opening theme song for the Mickey Mouse shorts starting with "The Jazz Fool"note though the specific arrangement used in Get a Horse! would first be used in "The Fire Fighters", which also utilizes a different title card than the other shorts mentioned here, all of which came after the short "The Opry House", which was the last time Mickey was regularly gloveless as is seen in Get a Horse!. | |

Samurai Champloo is set in Japan roughly around the tail end of the Meiji Restoration, which would put it in the 19th century, but its entire soundtrack is made out of hip-hop and R&B. Though part of it is to contrast the above-mentioned Cowboy Bebop, the series parallels many elements of traditional Japanese culture with modern-day gangster culture to show how they're not that different. | |

Guardians of the Galaxy and its sequel are both set in 2014, but all of the songs therein are from the '60s and '70s. Peter Quill was raised on these songs by his late mother, and when he was the subject of an Alien Abduction all he had with him was one cassette she had made for him with those songs on it. He later acquires a second cassette and eventually an MP3 player, but the songs are still from the same era. The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special (2022) includes Christmas-themed songs from the 80's, 90's, and even as late as 2010 (Miss Jackie's "Mrs. Claus") - Quill does seem to be using the mp3 player to listen to newer songs now, plus unlike previous Guardians movies, some scenes take place on present day earth. |

The Buccaneers (2023): The 2023 pop song that scores the trailer (Olivia Rodrigo's "all-american bitch") is centuries removed from the 1870s setting of the show, but it helps add a rebellious modern sensibility to the American heroines. | |

Chainsaw Man: In Part 2, which takes place in 1998/1999, Fumiko takes Denji to karaoke where she sings "ChuChu Lovely MuniMuni MuraMura PrinPrin Boron Nururu ReroRero" by Maximum the Hormone, who was founded around the same time, but would only release that song in 2007. Though considering Part 1 establishes that the Chainsaw Devil altered the course of history, the anachronism could be intentional. | |

Demon of the Lute has an intentional example. The film is set in ancient China, and has an anachronistic rock soundtrack straight from the '80s, which plays throughout the film, including the opening titles. However, since it's a parody that's intentionally ridiculous. | |

The Legend Of Tian Ding is set in 1909 Taiwan, and for the most part features period-accurate soundtrack as background music, right until the Final Boss battle against Shimada with an (awesome) out-of-place rock score. The end credits song after beating the game, "Love in the Deep Pits" also features rap lyrics too advanced for the game's period, though it could be surmised as a song performed by future generations commemorating the titular hero. | |

Stranger Things: The show is usually all about keeping things period-appropriate to the setting (it starts in 1983), and this is particularly accurate with the music. However, they goofed in one scene by mere weeks: the Season 1 episode "The Monster", set in November 1983, has some of the teenagers listening to Corey Hart's "Sunglasses at Night" in a car—released on January 21, 1984. Season 2's "Madmax" uses Oingo Boingo's "Just Another Day" in a scene set on 28 October 1984, a song that wouldn't be recorded or released until, funnily enough, 28 October 1985 (although this example is used non-diagetically). More deliberately, the climax of the final episode of Season 1 as Eleven performs a Heroic Sacrifice, Hopper and Joyce frantically try to revive Will and Hopper flashes back to the death of his daughter is non-diagetically set to Moby's "When It's Cold I'd Like To Die", a song that wouldn't be released until March 1995 — just over eleven years after the events of the episode. This song also appears during the season four finale. The version of "Nocturnal Me" by Echo & the Bunnymen used at the end of the fifth episode wouldn't be recorded until early 1984. New Order's "Elegia", used during Will's funeral, wouldn't be released until 1985. The Bangles' cover of "Hazy Shade of Winter" didn't come out until 1987. Cutting Crew's "(I Just) Died in Your Arms Tonight" was released in the UK in 1986, and not until January of 1987 in the US. "Play With Me" by Extreme, used during a Season 4 montage, wasn't released until 1989. |

The Thief series has a roughly late-medieval setting, but features mostly atmospheric ambient music and sounds throughout most gameplay. Religious buildings tend to have ambients that are variations on choir-like vocals, depending on the faction. The main intro and outro themes are an outright blend of drum and bass and rock music. The credits song for Thief II: The Metal Age, by German band Subway to Sally, mixes modern metal with some medieval period instruments, and the results are oddly awesome. All the music in the Thief games is in line with their overall anachronistic nature, featuring an archaic setting with the beginnings of an industrial revolution, and a focus on the criminal underworld (including the master thief protagonist, who often has to evade both the law and his own fellow criminals). | |

A Knight's Tale: 14th-century knights rocking out to the music of the '70s, including Queen and David Bowie. This is a form of Translation Convention; tournaments were sporting events to people of the time, so the tournaments get sporting-event music to show the way people felt about them. As the director points out on the DVD Commentary, the usual alternative of an orchestral score would have been just as anachronistic to the 14th century. | |

Rabbit Hood uses several songs that are out of place for its medieval setting, such as Rule Britannia! where Bugs disguises himself as the King and London Bridge is Falling Down, sung by a dazed and battered Sheriff of Nottingham after Bugs "knights" him. Both songs were composed in the 18th centurynote Though earlier versions existed for the latter before the publication of the rhyme's modern form c. 1744. Of course, this was likely done for the Rule of Funny. | |

8 Women: This Jukebox Musical is set in the 1950s, however the characters sing songs released in the 60s at the earliest. The only exception is "Il n'y a pas d'amour heureux", which started out as a poem published in 1944 and was set to music by George Brassens in 1953. | |

Lilo & Stitch uses mostly old Elvis Presley songs in its soundtrack, despite taking place in the present day. This was done to highlight Lilo's eccentricities; a girl her age would be listening to contemporary pop, instead of songs from almost fifty years earlier. It's also implied to be a connection to her late parents. | |
