Dawn of the Dead (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is the soundtrack to the 2004 film of the same name directed by Zack Snyder in his directorial debut. The score for the film was composed by Tyler Bates, marking the beginning of a collaboration between the director and musician for Snyder's 300 (2006), Watchmen (2009) and Sucker Punch (2011).
The score was not officially released alongside the film. In July 2011, Milan Records distributed the score in digital and physical formats. A vinyl edition of the album released in December 2014.




Development


Tyler Bates was first involved in the project after being recommended by music supervisor, G. Marq Roswell, as both of them were involved on the Mario Van Peebles's film Baadasssss! (2003). However, the studio was not convinced on his hiring because he was not an established composer at that time, but upon Snyder's insistence, he was ultimately hired.
While scoring the film, he avoided taking cues from the original film's music by the band Goblin, as he felt it incompatible with what Snyder had filmed. Although he liked Goblin's themes for the counterpart, he felt it was specific to that period and Snyder's version had a "different attitude" in comparison to the original film. Hence, he let go of the popular themes from the original film, including the main title theme which he felt it "as cool and was a different thing". Influenced by the works of composers adept at creating dissonant themes, such as Béla Bartók and Krzysztof Penderecki, He combined elements of electronic music and 20th-century orchestra with the intention of making the audience "very, very uncomfortable".




Release


The score was not officially released to the general public upon release. On July 5, 2011, seven years after the film's premiere, Milan Records distributed the film's soundtrack digitally via iTunes Store and Amazon Music, and in physical formats on July 12. The album featured the complete score from the film, consisted over 31 tracks. On December 16, 2014, Milan Records released the soundtrack in 180-gram vinyl record in a limited pressing of 500 copies. Most of the tracks were excluded in the record, condensing up to 16 tracks in the album.
