The 34-track album featuring the score of the Canadian show’s composer Peter Peter dropped Friday, midnight local time. The soundtrack is Peter’s debut score. He was hired by Heated Rivalry creator and showrunner Jacob Tierney after the writer spent “much of the series’ preproduction immersed in Peter’s previous solo work,” according to a release.
Released by Milan Records, the soundtrack includes both tender tracks for the moments of yearning and up-beat, techo-infused tracks for the show’s more heart pounding moments. Friday’s release is strictly digital, however, the label says the soundtrack is set to be released in physical forms — both on CD and vinyl — later this year.

The music of Heated Rivalry, both the score and songs used in the show, have been a hot topic online. Tierney using TATu’s 2002 anthem “All The Things She Said” as a major needle drop caused the song’s Spotify streams to jump 135 percent in the US in the week following the episode it was featured in. British artist Harrison’s remix of the show, also featured in the same sequence, saw a 139,000 percent increase in global streams on the platform from Dec. 12 to Dec. 24.
Heated Rivalryhailing from Canadian streamer Crave and airing on HBO Max in the US, centers around a fictional hockey universe based on books by Rachel Reid. The show focuses on two rival professional players — Canada-born Shane Hollander (Williams) of the fictitious Montreal Metros and Russia-born Ilya Rozanov (Storrie) of the fictitious Boston Raiders — as they navigate a near-decade-long relationship turned relationship.
Crave renewed Heated Rivalry for a second season and HBO Max confirmed it will continue to air the series. Earlier this week, Reid announced that she’ll be publishing her seventh book in the Game Changers series, which Heated Rivalry and its sequel The Long Game belong to. The book Unrivaledwill be the next chapter in Shane and Ilya’s story.
