John Debney - The Scorpion King (Original Soundtrack)
Deluxe two CD edition. Director Chuck Russell (The Mask, Eraser) chose John Debney to score The Scorpion King based on the strength of his symphonic score for Cutthroat Island (1995). Debney followed in the Mummy footsteps of Jerry Goldsmith and Alan Silvestri with a gargantuan, desert-flavored action score for full orchestra and choir, including non-Western instruments like the ney, duduk and ram's horn (and Japanese taiko drums and flutes) to evoke exoticism and antiquity. He also, befitting the film's contemporary swagger and The Rock's wrestling fanbase, created a "mash-up" of symphonic instruments with shredding electric guitars. The Scorpion King was initially released by Var?se Sarabande as a 40-minute CD. The Deluxe Edition 2-CD set doubles the score program to nearly 80 minutes and adds a bonus section of Debney's demos. Liner notes are by Daniel Schweiger.
