Soundtrack?
I thought the songs in the movie were pretty cool. Especially the Kirk Vaines tunes. Anyone have a list or anywhere they can be downloaded?

buy it in their store.
the owner of the record label, john hughes III (yes, son of THAT john hughes) did the soundtrack and released it as a cd you can buy for cheap. there are also remixes of tracks from the score you can get on the 2CD 'immediate action' compilation on the same label, also available to buy in the hefty store.
What about the Kirk songs?
I'm presuming based on the credits in the end, they were sung by Jean Shepherd, and entitled "Illusion" & "Just Passing Through".
Anyone have any info on those 2 particular songs?
TIA
I have a link here that would explain who wrote the Filmscore, perhaps sending a note on Facebook or LinkedIn to Richard Embach (the scorist) would help? I also have a contact at Hughes Home Office that can send me appropriate links to the SoundTrack. I'll post back asap when she does.
The link with an Embach Bio from a fairly recent gig (he is a vibist):
http://www.artseverywhere.com/event/detail/37679
"Rick Embach studied under legendary West Coast Vibist Charlie Shoemake in Los Angeles and stayed on to eventually work with Clare Fischer, Lanny Morgan, Vinnie Colaiutta and Richard Elliot. In Chicago, years of collaboration with Hefty Records Owner, John Hughes have included alternative music projects involving Orbert Davis and Nicole Mitchell and a film score (Scarlett Diva). His Vibes can be heard on ads for Kellogg’s, Bud Light, Lands End and his original music has been aired on The Playboy Channel. Rick, along with Bill Boris on Guitar, Jim Seidel on Bass, and Lanny Turner on Drums will be performing the music of Chick Corea, Pat Metheny and Jazz Standards."
This info is where he is playing next:
"Chicago artist Judith Roth will display paintings and drawings of dancers and other figures. Lake County artist Pamela Lee will feature small scale, terra cotta sculptures of the human form. Reception: Friday, Aug. 28, 7-9 p.m.
Music provided by Richard Embach, vibraphonist"

Hope any of this helps your search. Also, as I wokr at the college, I will ask Richrd myself this Friday and post anything cohesive here asap.
NM, I see. The Hefty site sells the SCORE of Scarlet Diva, NOT the "Soundtrack". The "Soundtrack" is what contains the songs "Illusion" & "Passing Through" (AKA the Kirk V. songs) You can even get them on iTunes.
shareThere are two versions of the soundtrack: an instrumental (American) and a non-instrumental one (French, maybe available in other European countries as well).
