This is music in a film which becomes one of its major selling points or unique identifiers. Generally regarded as Awesome Music, this music really helps a number of cult films keep a profile through the decades and is often the thing that people mean when they defend it with talk about its "atmosphere".
Particular causes for such a soundtrack may be the use of a single popular band or musician for the soundtrack in contrast for using a score composer or using many songs from different sources.
It is the existence of several Cult Soundtracks from the late 70's and 80's that lead to the more modern practise of focusing on getting a soundtrack and movie tie in for mutual publicity that leads to today's Breakaway Pop Hit phenomenon.
Compare Just Here for Godzilla. A clue to spotting one of these is when the soundtrack announcement for the sequel leads to And the Fandom Rejoiced.

Homeworld's OST by Paul Ruskay is regularly considered one of the best, most evocative soundtracks of all time, and combines the original score with one non-original piece of music. Agnus Dei, the choral version of Barber's Adagio for Strings starts playing when the mission "Return To Kharak" begins, where the Mothership returns to the home planet Kharak, to see half of the planet being consumed by flames, with the entire population exterminated from orbit. Combined with world class voice work that sells the despair and devastation of the scene, it creates one of the saddest moments in the history of gaming, and sets the player a steel resolve to make the enemy pay for what they did. Also, the song that plays over the end credits, recorded by no less a band than Yes, is pretty popular as well.

Hackers' soundtrack was a sampling of techno, rave and electronica in the nineties when rave was near its peak, though the most famous was The Prodigy's "Voodoo People"; it went on to have two more volumes note the second and third volumes were increasingly In Name Only, each featuring only a handful of songs actually heard in the film alongside material "inspired by" it.

The hyperviolent Wii game MadWorld is known these days for three things: being the debut of PlatinumGames; being one of the few Mature-rated titles released on that system (and boy, did it earn that reputation); and having a genuinely hard rap-rock soundtrack with beats from PlatinumGames in-house composer Naoto Tanaka and filled with talented indie rappers, which director Atsushi Inaba has said was inspired by the Jay-Z and Linkin Park collaboration album Collision Course. The MadWorld soundtrack still widely comes up as among the best examples of a hip-hop soundtrack in gaming history.

Cowboy Bebop fans have two sections of their brains. One section is for enjoying the show. The other section is for the music which is a sound unlike most other anime and musical director/composer Yoko Kanno given as a reason to watch the show equal to everything else. It is observed through MRI scans that the bigger the fan, the more engorged the latter section of the brain.

The album was released on Vinyl in 2015 and Wintory has even toured, performing the soundtrack live.

The Harder They Come: One of the best examples of how a soundtrack album can become more popular and famous than the film itself. Even in the 1970s, when it first came out, many owners of the album were unaware it was a movie soundtrack. It's full with beautiful early Reggae music by Jimmy Cliff, Desmond Dekker, The Abyssinians and more.

The soundtrack for the first few seasons of the Killer Instinct remake were a delight and some of the tracks like "I'm Back (to Rise)" found success even outside of the game. When Mick Gordon departed from the game for Doom (2016) and was replaced by Celldweller many were saddened (but the latter still has his fair share of fans).

Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks by Brian Eno: the music was originally meant for a documentary film about the Apollo moon missions: For All Mankind, but due to lukewarm audience reactions the project was delayed. The album came out in 1983, while the film only got an official release in 1989. Nevertheless: probably more people have listened to the album than does who ever saw the film.

Grim Fandango: The soundtrack by Peter McConnell is made up of a mixture of Film Noir-style jazz and Mexican folk music, perfectly matching the game's aesthetic. When Tim Schafer picked up the rights to "remaster" the game, he spent most of the budget hiring the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra to rerecord the whole score.

Magical Mystery Tour is widely considered to be the weakest film The Beatles made. On the other hand, its soundtrack (particularly the American version, which fills itself out to full-LP size by adding five singles that, as per British convention of the time, had never appeared on actual albums before) is generally considered a strong point in an already-strong discography.

Talk to any fan of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and they will tell you that nothing quite establishes and contributes to its retro Miami Vice/Scarface atmosphere quite like its soundtrack, comprised of Nothing but Hits from some of the most iconic popular musicians of The '80s. In fact, it's been suggested that the vast field of '80s nostalgia as we know it was first truly codified by this game. It certainly revolutionized the use of licensed music in video games; before, they typically featured original scores and/or a small handful of licensed songs, but after, soundtracks comprised of dozens, or even hundreds, of licensed songs became the norm. Rockstar Games, perhaps knowing how immediately iconic the game's soundtrack was, released a seven-CD box set featuring nearly a hundred songs from it, a tradition they'd keep up with future games in the series.

Kevin Smith's debut Clerks probably would not have been nearly as successful had he not ended up with a soundtrack filled with various alternative, grunge and punk bands. Most of the budget went towards getting rights for the music. In fact, the Clerks soundtrack made history. The movie was made by Smith selling his possessions and maxing out his credit cards, gathering a budget of just over $27,000. After Miramax picked it up for distribution, they decided it would be more marketable with a hit soundtrack. Securing the music rights cost over $50,000. This made Clerks the first film in history whose soundtrack cost more to produce than the actual film.

Heavy Metal is well-regarded for its soundtrack featuring artists such as Don Felder, Blue Öyster Cult, Black Sabbath, Cheap Trick, Sammy Hagar, and Devo.

One of Frozen (2013)'s major Sleeper Hit selling points was its soundtrack. Like The Bodyguard, many people got into the soundtrack just for the movie's big Award-Bait Song, "Let It Go". An influx of parodies and YouTube Poops of that particular tune only accelerated its source material's popularity among Internet users (in fact, "Let It Go FK YOURSELF" is one of the - if not the - most viewed YTP's ever).

Singles was a mostly-forgettable Cameron Crowe romantic comedy, but its soundtrack was a huge hit. This due to the movie being set in Seattle and the soundtrack (and film) containing many of the stars of the then-nascent "grunge" movement. One of Soundgarden's biggest singles, "Spoonman," was originally conceived as a song playing in the background of a bar.

Mord Und Totschlag (English title: A Degree of Murder) is an obscure 1967 film from Germany that only got a DVD/Blu-Ray release in its home country in 2019, 52 years after its initial release. The film, however, is notable, in that it has a (still-unrelased) soundtrack that was composed by The Rolling Stones founding member Brian Jones note  His girlfriend at the time, Anita Pallenberg, starred in the movie and she is the reason why he composed the soundtrack in the first place. However, by the time the movie premiered at Cannes in 1967, Anita had left Brian for Keith Richards

Basil Poledouris' score to Cherry 2000 was so popular among film scoring fans that the album used to go for over $1,000 in online auditions (the score was so rare that Poledouris didn't even have a copy until John Waters gave him his personal copy when they did Serial Mom together). A pair of reissues have since remedied this problem but it's still one of Poledouris' more popular scores.

Streets of Fire, aptly described as “A Rock & Roll Fable� in its advertising, had mixed critical success and was a Box Office Bomb on its initial release. But it became a huge cult hit in no small part because of its soundtrack, produced by Jimmy Iovine (yes, that one), which is basically the epitome of '80s cool. Fans of acclaimed songwriter Jim Steinman (yes, that one) consider “Nowhere Fast� and “Tonight Is What It Means To Be Young� to be among his finest work, and “Sorcerer,� written (but not sung) by Stevie Nicks, is equally beloved among her fans. And then there’s the Breakaway Pop Hit “I Can Dream About You� by Dan Hartman, which cracked the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100, had not one but two music videos that were both fixtures on early MTV, and became by far the biggest hit of his career.

The Sonic the Hedgehog series is known for having stellar soundtracks, to the point that it's one of the few things the infamously divided fandom can usually agree on.
Both the Japanese/European and the American soundtracks to Sonic CD are regarded this way, though opinions vary as to which is better.
Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) is known for two things: being widely agreed to be one of the worst Sonic games ever (generally, mostly, and usually, even if not quite universally), and having one of the best soundtracks of any Sonic game ever.
Sonic Rush is known for its sample-heavy soundtrack by Hideki Naganuma, which is technically impressive given the limitations of the Nintendo DS.

Furious 7 quickly became one of the highest grossing movies of all time, and was accompanied by a highly acclaimed soundtrack consisting of an All-Star Cast of rappers, DJs, and pop artists. It also produced "See You Again", which became one of the biggest hits of the decade.

Blade Runner: Vangelis yet again. The film is a classic in its own right, but the soundtrack is so popular amongst synthesizer enthusiasts that it's single-handedly responsible for the Yamaha CS-80 being so expensive today because everyone wants to sound like the "Main Titles". Blade Runner even inspired an entire synthesizer, the Black Corporation Deckard's Dream which unsurprisingly tries to imitate the CS-80's sound.

The BEMANI franchise is, being a Rhythm Game series, very well-known for its massive library of music, and many musicians who produce tracks for the series have fandoms of their own. In the 2010s onward when Konami made questionable (at best) business decisions regarding their franchises, it was cause for celebration for particular in-house BEMANI-centric musicians to leave Konami and go freelance to be free of their Executive Meddling and produce songs for other rhythm games, with TAG being one of the most well-known examples.

Doctor Who, particularly with New Who, has become renowned for the quality of its music, usually of the soaring orchestral variety. Large sections of the soundtrack are traditional standouts at the BBC Proms, alongside nationally beloved hymns like Jerusalem, and the theme tune — in all its many and varied remixed forms — is practically hardwired into the British psyche.

Judgment Night mostly drew attention for its innovative Rap Metal soundtrack, which included collaborations between famous Alternative Rock and Heavy Metal bands (Sonic Youth, Helmet, Pearl Jam, Mudhoney, Biohazard, Slayer, Living Colour, Dinosaur Jr., Therapy?, Teenage Fanclub, Faith No More) and Rap groups (House of Pain, Cypress Hill, Sir Mix-A-Lot, Fatal, De La Soul, Run–D.M.C., Onyx, Ice-T, Del Tha Funkee Homosapien, Boo-Yaa T.R.I.B.E.).
Spawn (1997) followed a similar path, pairing rock bands with electronica groups (Filter and The Crystal Method, Butthole Surfers and Moby, Korn and The Dust Brothers), selling fairly well and earning assessments that it had more lasting appeal than the film itself.

While Space Jam's quality is debatable, to say the least, many consider its soundtrack to be one of the most underlooked albums of the 90's (although it has gone 6 time platinum). Hit Em High (featuring B-Real, Method-Man, Coolio, LL Cool J, and Busta Rhymes), in particular, is considered to be one of the most overlooked songs ever (at least based on by many YouTube commenters). There's also the Space Jam's theme song, with it constantly being mashed up with what seems like almost every other recorded piece of audio.

Tetris has multiple examples:
The Game Boy version has a chiptune version of the Russian folk song "Korobeiniki", which is now universally known as "the Tetris theme". Even people who haven't played the game probably know it.
H2O, which mainly made Puzzle Games during the 5th generation of video game systems, would've been immediately forgotten after its debut game, Tetrisphere (despite using the Tetris name), were it not for its in-house composer, Neil Voss. Though Tetrisphere was never a high-profile release in any way, Voss was the one person on the team doing interviews with gaming magazines and websites and drawing attention to the game almost all by himself. He had also become notable among MIDI enthusiasts of the 90's, as his flavor of sample-heavy EDM and Trance music, created using the Nintendo 64's built-in sound programs, was completely unprecedented and raised the bar with what was thought possible with MIDI.
The Philips CD-i version had many obstacles: the system itself is quite obscure (outside of a few infamous exceptions), and the game itself is so famous on other systems that most people wouldn't care about yet another version on forgotten hardware. Nowadays, this version's main claim to fame is its extremely chill soundtrack, which is often compared to Vaporwave despite predating the genre by nearly two decades.

The Josie and the Pussycats movie was a box-office failure, but its soundtrack, an Affectionate Parody of Power Pop, Pop Punk, and Boy Band tropes that was put together by a slew of late '90s songwriters and producers led by Kenneth "Babyface" Edwards, wound up going Gold and remains a cult item among genre fans. It was even rereleased on vinyl nearly two decades later, and is a big part of why the film itself hasn't fallen into obscurity.

Minions: The Rise of Gru received considerable online attention for its Jack Antonoff-produced soundtrack of 1970s cover songs by acclaimed 2022 artists. While it doesn't appear on the soundtrack album itself, a song for the movie was written by the rage-rapper Yeat (with uncharacteristically clean lyrics about hating Vector), which ended up soundtracking a fad where teenagers would go and see the movie in full 3-piece formalwear.

Conan the Barbarian (1982) composed by Basil Poledouris, is famously known for causing hair to grow on listeners in previously unknown places, along with causing heavy metal fans to develop a hankering for classical music. It's also considered one of the all-time great soundtracks, despite the film itself being a total Camp Classic. Intrada issued the complete score in 2012.

Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers had music by John Van Tongeren and Peter Wetzler with tracks sung by AOR bands FM and Refugee (cult bands in their own right). When Koch Vision was asking the fan list for DVD extras, the unanimous vote was for the soundtrack.

The whole OST of Saint Seiya is one of the greatest milestones of the anime music industry and arguably composer Seiji Yokoyama's magnum opus, jam-packed with everything from butt-rock insert songs to somber and majestic themes that are always timed just right to punch you in the heartstrings. To give an idea of its popularity in Japan, it was one of the first soundtracks to be released not with traditional J-Pop songs, but with just the background music.

For many fans, Super Smash Bros. is just as much a celebration of classic video game music as it is a crossover fighting game. Ever since "My Music" was introduced in Brawl, an absolutely massive and ever-growing list of composers has contributed to the series, many of which are already listed on this page. Whenever a new character is announced, it often leads to excitement and speculation regarding which songs will be included with them.
