Soundtracks is a soundtrack album by the Krautrock group Can. It was first released in 1970 and consists of tracks written for various films. The album marks the departure of the band's original vocalist Malcolm Mooney, who sings on two tracks, to be replaced by new member Damo Suzuki. Stylistically, the record also documents the transition from the psychedelia-inspired jams of their first recordings (i.e., "Monster Movie" and "Delay 1968") to the more meditative, electronic, and experimental mode of the studio albums that followed (such as "Tago Mago" and "Ege Bamyasi").
The track "She Brings The Rain" was later featured in Lisbon Story and in the 2000 Oskar Roehler film "Die Unberührbare."
In March 2005, Q magazine placed "Mother Sky" at number 48 in its list of the 100 Greatest Guitar Tracks.
