Epic Soundtrax was an American record label. A division of Sony Music’s Epic Records, it was established in 1992 as an imprint for soundtrack albums. It was founded by Epic's then executive vice-president, Richard Griffiths, and Glen Brunman, who served as its head.[1][2][3]

The label was central to Epic's 1990s success, with 11 releases cumulatively selling more than 40 million records over a three year period. Notable releases included soundtrack albums for Honeymoon in Vegas, Singles, Sleepless in Seattle, Forrest Gump, Philadelphia, and Judgement Night.[4][5][6][7][8][9]

Epic Soundtrax was deactivated in 1997 with the launch of Sony Music Soundtrax. With Brunman in charge, it served as an umbrella label for all Sony Music soundtrack releases.[10]
