Elemental (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is the soundtrack album to the 2023 Disney/Pixar film of the same name. The original score is composed and orchestrated by Thomas Newman in his fourth Pixar film, following Finding Nemo (2003), WALL-E (2008), and Finding Dory (2016).
Director Peter Sohn collaborated with Newman on the score. Newman used cultural influences and instruments originating from different places across the globe to reflect the multicultural nature of the story. The scoring was held at Newman Scoring Stage and Fox Studio Lot in Los Angeles. In addition to instrumental tracks, the soundtrack included an original song called "Steal the Show" performed by Lauv, who wrote the music alongside Newman and lyrics alongside Michael Matosic.
The song was released on June 2, 2023, two weeks ahead of the release of the movie and soundtrack. The score was released by Walt Disney Records on June 16, 2023, the same day as the film's theatrical release. It received mostly positive reception for incorporating many elements of cultural influences from eastern countries, particularly Indian music.
