(Radio.com) While there was nothing necessarily wrong with the original score of the 2011 Ryan Gosling film Drive, which featured Chromatics among others, BBC Radio 1 has commissioned a rescoring of the film, with some of today's brightest up-and-coming artists contributing new music, including The 1975, CHVRCHES, and Jon Hopkins.

One of the most anticipated songs is a new track from Bastille, which is now available for sampling. Titled "The Driver," the song is a little less overtly pop than we've come to expected from the British alternative group, but the darker, moodier turn is fitting for the film, which drifts toward a similar aesthetic.

Radio 1 Rescores: Drive - Curated by Zane Lowe will air on BBC Three on Oct. 30. Meanwhile, Bastille have a new mixtape planned, which will feature "The Driver" and be their first release since their massive breakthrough Bad Blood.

Listen to the track here.
