Among the many names on the Lorde-curated soundtrack for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 1 is Belgian electronic act Stromae. He contributed the song "Meltdown," which features some very high-profile guests.

This star-studded electronic banger finds Pusha T, Q-Tip and Lorde trading off the mic over a propulsive propulsive pulse that spans hip-hop and pop. HAIM lay fairly low for much of the track, but their distinctive harmonized hooks come to the fore in the final passage.

Hear it below.

The Mockingjay — Part 1 soundtrack drops on November 18 through Republic Records. The movie comes to theatres a few days later on November 21.
