Operation Daybreak Soundtrack :(
I recently got an email from David Hentschel and I thought I should share it:-
Steven Thanks for your kind comments - glad you liked the score, and I agree it's a shame that the music will not be released. In answer to your questions, I started writing ideas for the main themes after reading the script. A few weeks later I saw the first rough cut of the movie. After that, I think I had a couple of weeks to finalize the themes. At that point I had all the sections of the music on film in my house, where I planned all the music sections and timings, and worked on the orchestrations. This probably took another couple of weeks - and remember these were pre-video and pre-computer days so it was rather cumbersome. Then into the studio - I recorded most of the electronic parts first, then overlaid the orchestral parts and recorded the orchestra-only cues. Recording was pretty fast as everything was well planned. Probably the whole recording and mixing process was about three weeks. Best David Hentschel
