Soundtrack

The term soundtrack now most commonly refers to the music used in a movie (or television show), and/or to an album sold containing that music. In movie industry terminology, a "sound track" (two words) is an audio recording created or used in film production or post-production. Initially the dialogue, sound effects, and music in a film each has its own separate track (dialogue track, sound effects track, and music track), and these are mixed together to make what is called the composite track, which is heard in the film. A dubbing track is often later created when films are dubbed into another language.
