The project was overseen by executive producer JFK, known for his work with MSTRKRFT and Death From Above 1979, who assembled a variety of electronic musicians to compose tracks centered on different characters, including one contributed by himself.
Three singles were made available digitally: Tokimonsta's "Mileena's Theme" on January 31, 2011; followed by Congorock's "Liu Kang's Theme" and Harvard Bass's "Helado (Sub-Zero's Theme)" both released on February 10, 2011.
