Track order by movie appearance

• "Dragula", when Neo meets Trinity at the night club - in background as Trinity says "Hello Neo..." [00:09:42].
• "Mindfields", in the same scene - in background, faded into from "Dragula" just as Trinity says "My name is Trinity." [00:10:19].
• "Leave You Far Behind (Lunatics Roller Coaster Mix)", during the fight training scene between Neo and Morpheus [00:50:22].
• "Clubbed to Death", when Neo and Morpheus are in the "Woman in the red dress" program [00:56:35].
• "Prime Audio Soup", when the crew of Nebuchadnezzar are seen plugging into the Matrix for the first time with Neo in preparation for their visit with The Oracle [01:07:07].
• "Spybreak!", during the lobby shootout scene [01:42:13].
• "Wake Up", when Neo hangs up the phone at the end of the movie and flies away, continues into credits [02:08:45].
• "Rock Is Dead", credits [02:11:24].

Music from the film that does not appear on the soundtrack

• The music playing on Neo's headphones ("Dissolved Girl" by Massive Attack) when he is contacted by Trinity.
• "Plasticity" by Plastikman aka Richie Hawtin, when Neo meets Trinity at the night club.
• The background music when Neo fights Morpheus in the sparring program (Don Davis' "Bow Whisk Orchestra" [an anagram of "Wachowski Brothers"], combining semi-improvisational drumming, Lunatic Calm's mix of "Leave You Far Behind", and Davis' "Switch or Break Show" [also an anagram of "Wachowski Brothers"]. The version of "Leave You Far Behind" found in the soundtrack is the original album one, not the movie mix.).
• The music from Night of the Lepus that can be heard from the television set in the Oracle's living room is "Begin the Run" written by Jimmie Haskell.
• The faint music that can be heard when Neo meets the Oracle is of 1930s jazz origin - "Minor Swing" by guitarist Django Reinhardt is followed by composer Duke Ellington's "I'm Beginning to See the Light".
• A track from "The Eyes of Truth", by the musical project Enigma, was used for the movie's worldwide trailer.
• A track similar to "The Eyes of Truth" titled "The Conquest of Truth" composed and recorded by Paul Hanson for Music Junkies was used for the DVD main menu.
• A track titled "(Can't You) Trip Like I Do", a collaboration between the groups Filter and The Crystal Method, was used for the theatrical trailer of the movie. This track can be found on the Spawn soundtrack album.
• None of the orchestral score in the movie was used in the original soundtrack (OST); parts of it received a separate release as The Matrix: Original Motion Picture Score.
