Music is integral to the world of Alfonso Cuarón’s Roma, but it is also incidental, experienced only as part of the action.
The remarkable 2018 film contains only snippets of music, no song is ever superimposed over the deliberately paced action that takes place in Mexico City’s Colonia Roma neighborhood at the dawn of the 1970s.

Overseen by Cuarón and music supervisor Lynn Fainchtein, this album has been billed as "Cuarón’s favorite artists making music inspired by his film". It has gathered together proto-punk royal Patti Smith, post-millennial icon Billie Eilish, British folk singer Laura Marling, and turntablist DJ Shadow, among others. To apply such an eclectic roster to Roma’s meticulous work of reconstruction is even more confounding.

Following Cuarón’s field-recorded introduction, “Tepeji 21 (The Sounds of Roma),” the album begins with a double dose of déjà vu. First Patti Smith reprises her 1996 song “Wing”; then Beck and his father, the Canadian arranger and composer David Campbell, tackle “Tarantula,” a 1982 song by the 4AD band Colourbox. Both are stunning renditions.
The pedal steel of “Wing” is liquid and narcotic; Beck’s “Tarantula” blows wide the proportions of This Mortal Coil’s 1986 cover of the song.
Billie Eilish’s “When I Was Older” is one of the albums standout tracks, and takes its premise from Pépe, the film’s youngest character, who has a habit of fantasizing about his past lives. It’s a gorgeous song, with diaphanous synths rippling atop snub-nosed synth bass and tough trap snares, and even though the sound couldn’t be further from Mexico City of the 1970s, it makes for a fitting contemporary extrapolation.

At the other end of the spectrum, the Mexico City group Sonido Gallo Negro’s “Cumbia del Borras” pays tribute to the movie’s canine character with a giddy psychedelic cumbia whose slipperiness may or may not have something to do with the dog’s penchant for befouling the family’s carport.

A number of artists avail themselves of sounds from the film, the knife-sharpener’s whistle recurs again and again, while others deliver appropriately cinematic mood pieces.
El-P and Wilder Zoby’s instrumental “Marooned” is a nice surprise, UNKLE & Michael Kiwanuka deliver a sumptuous "On my knees".
Most selections here are simply GREAT tracks regardless of the context.

The Colombian-Canadian singer Jessie Reyez’ largely acoustic, cumbia-flavored “Con el Viento” has a certain timelessness that lends itself to a project like this, it’s also a fine introduction to the rising singer’s expressive voice. There’s another introduction here, in the form of “PSYCHO,” by Bu Cuarón, the director’s 16-year-old daughter, She has a strong voice, and delivers her contemporary pop song perfectly.

The album is bookended by sound collages of Mexico City, the overlapping voices, the planes soaring overhead, the occasional marching band.
Roma is a striking auditory experience even without the pop-star majesty that drives Bohemian Rhapsody or A Star Is Born.
Asaf Avidan’s “Between These Hands,” a quavering hyper-ballad that perfectly frames this occasionally wrenching movie.

Each track is melodic and mesmerizing, capturing its own unique perspective on the film in a captivating way, but when all the songs are played back-to-back, the compilation feels a bit unorthodox, as it bounces from Eilish’s poppy and moody “When I Was Older” to the classical Spanish of Reyez’s “Con El Viento”. The artists remain true to themselves and their sounds, but the album’s narrative isn’t entirely fluid, which may take a listener out of the trance-like state imparted by its source material.

Each track is melodic and mesmerizing, capturing its own unique perspective on the film in a captivating way, "Music Inspired by the Film Roma" is a grandiose album, filled with well-orchestrated blends of personality and quality performances.
