M83: I Need You

A new track's emerged from M83, the song I Need You featuring on the soundtrack for the film Divergent.

The movie is described as "A thrilling action-adventure film set in a world where people are divided into distinct factions based on human virtues."

M83 are a perfect choice for a science fiction soundtrack, their work having also appeared on Tom Cruise's Oblivion movie in 2013.

It's based on a book, the first of a trilogy, by American writer Veronica Roth. It's a teenage-audience science fiction work, set in a dystopian Chicago of the future, aimed at much the same kind of target audience as The Hunger Games.

The film stars Shailene Woodley as Beatrice Prior. Others appearing include Ray Stevenson, Kate Winslet and Ashley Judd.

Other artists on the soundtrack include Woodkid - with the track Run Boy Run and I Love You on the deluxe edition - and A$AP Rocky featuring Gesaffelstein with the track In Distress.

Ellie Goulding has several tracks including one new song, and other artists include Snow Patrol and Tame Impala featuring  Kendrick Lamar on vocals.

Divergent is at the cinema in the UK on March 21, with the soundtrack album released on March 21.
