SoundtrackNet has posted a report on Steve Jablonsky's recording session for the new Michael Bay science fiction/action thriller about cloning, THE ISLAND. Jablonsky, noted for scoring the 2003 remake of THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, TV's DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES and THE CONTENDER, as well as Katsuhiro Otomo's latest anime, STEAMBOY, has provided.


"Conducted by Blake Neely, the score is mostly electronic, with string, brass, choir and solo instruments adding to the palette," reported Dan Goldwasser. "An emotional and lush main title cue was the first item recorded, and as they progressed through the score, Neely explained - in his wry and humorous manner - to the session players what was happening on screen so that they would understand where the music was coming from."


The score will be released on Milan Records near to the film's July 22nd release date.
