As the first season of the hit Disney+ animated series Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord reaches its climactic conclusion, Walt Disney Records has officially pulled back the curtain on the show’s musical score. Composed by the legendary Kevin Kiner alongside Sean Kiner and Deana Kiner, the Maul Shadow Lord soundtrack is set to debut digitally today, May 4, 2026, just in time for the annual “May the 4th” celebrations.
The Sound of the Shadow Lord
Music has always been the heartbeat of the Star Wars franchise, and Maul – Shadow Lord is no exception. Kevin Kiner, a name synonymous with the auditory identity of modern Star Wars animation, has returned to anchor the score. Having previously defined the sounds of The Clone Wars, Rebels, and The Bad Batch, Kiner’s work on this series brings a grittier, more percussion-heavy atmosphere that reflects the titular character’s descent into the criminal underworld.
Working alongside Sean and Deana Kiner, who recently showcased their talents on Star Wars: Tales of the Underworld, the team has crafted a soundscape that balances the operatic tragedy of Maul’s past with the high-stakes tension of his new syndicate, Crimson Dawn.
A Soundtrack for the Fans
For fans who have been following the series, the release of the Maul Shadow Lord soundtrack provides an opportunity to relive the season’s most intense moments. The series, created by Dave Filoni and developed by Filoni and Matt Michnovetz, follows Maul as he attempts to carve out a new empire on a planet hidden from the watchful eye of the Galactic Empire.
The score accompanies a stellar voice cast, including Sam Witwer returning as the voice of Maul, alongside Gideon Adlon, Wagner Moura, and Vanessa Marshall. The music plays a pivotal role in bridging the emotional gap between Maul’s ruthless ambitions and the journey of Devon Izara, the disillusioned Padawan who crosses his path.

The upcoming digital album features 38 tracks, covering the breadth of the first season. From the haunting opening theme to the adrenaline-pumping “Bridge Battle,” the tracklist offers a comprehensive look at the series’ musical narrative.
