Songs and Tunes from The Original Soundtrack of Magical Sentosa (often shortened to Magical Sentosa: The Original Soundtrack or Magical Sentosa soundtrack) is a remix album of the multimedia ECA2 show, "Le Lac Aux Images"; though it actually serves as the main soundtrack to other ECA2 production, "Magical Sentosa". It is currently not known when it was recorded; many have suggested the soundtrack was probably recorded around 2001 in the studios of ECA2 located in France. Originally, most tracks have never been able to be released to the general public except "Water Waltz", which was somehow bootlegged onto YouTube in its original studio audio in mid-2011. The soundtrack album is considered a collectable because of its rarity and historical significance. The album employs early material directly stripped off Le Lac Aux Images and later remixed to its current form. The soundtrack has largely survived in home video format; some of them were bootlegged by audiences who have watched the show itself. It was until the 30 January 2013, when a Singaporean YouTuber who goes by the username "caix92" rediscovered the album among a stash of items at his / her home. All eight tracks in their original studio audio were uploaded to the owner's YouTube page along with the album's artwork, thought to be long lost in its entirety for six years after the fountain's closure.

During the project emphasis of the ECA2 production, Le Lac Aux Images. Philippe Villar and Pascal Lengagne composed and produced music pieces to the latter's soundtrack providing some music to be recycled for the latter's replacement, Magical Sentosa in 2001 or 2002. During the recording of the soundtrack for Magical Sentosa, the duo both returned to remix and edit tracks from Le Lac Aux Images and add in additional tracks from the new studio tapes. Resulting in some changes to the original audio tracks from the Le Lac Aux Images soundtrack. Villar and Lengagne both mentioned that they wanted the soundtrack to be a fusion of the eastern and western musical genres, to create a more appealing piece that is understandable to different people. In early 2007, plans were announced for the demolition of the show's venue, the Sentosa Musical Fountain, to commence on 26 March 2007. This resulted many to do home video recordings of the last show on the 25 March 2007. Some of these recordings were professionally edited and released as bootlegs, majority of these videos ended up on the video-sharing site, YouTube. There was no original audio from the album that existed in its entire originality until the audio uploads from "caix92" in late January 2013.
