Production

Richard Kelly commissioned Michael Andrews, a San Diego musician and television and film composer who had worked as a member of a range of bands, including The Origin with Gary Jules, whose two solo albums he had produced, and The Greyboy Allstars. Michael Andrews is an American musician and Film score composer The Greyboy Allstars (GBA are a San Diego funk and jazz group created in the early 1990s Kelly said that he was confident that Michael Andrews could do the job: "I met with Michael and I just knew right away that he was really, really talented and that he could come up with a really original score. He would allow me to be in there and be really kind of editorial with how I wanted the score to be. " [1]

Michael Andrews relocated to Los Angeles to work on the film between October and December 2000. As Michael Andrews states, the low budget for the project encouraged him to play a diverse range of instruments for the soundtrack:

"The film was pretty low budget so my portion of the money was pretty thin. I couldn't hire anyone, it was just me. I played everything; piano, mellotron, mini marimba, xylophone, ukulele, organ. The piano is a Musical instrument played by means of a keyboard that produces sound by striking steel strings with Felt covered hammers The Mellotron is an electro-mechanical polyphonic keyboard originally developed and built in Birmingham, England in the early 1960s In some parts of Africa the term "marimba" refers to the Kalimba. The xylophone (from the Greek words ξύλον - xylon, "wood" + φωνή - phone, "voice" meaning "wooden The ukulele (ˌjʉːkəˈlɛɪli from ʻukulele /ˌʔukuˈlele/ variantly spelled ukelele (particularly in the UK) or alternatively abbreviated uke The organ (from Greek όργανον – organon "organ instrument tool" is a Keyboard instrument of one or more divisions each I also brought in two female vocalists Sam Shelton and Tori Haberman. But no guitar because Richard said no guitar or drums; he just wasn't into it. I was down with that - I've played guitar my whole life. "[2]

Like many of his role models for soundtrack composing such as John Barry and Ennio Morricone, Michael Andrews wanted to put a song on his otherwise instrumental score. John Barry, OBE (born John Barry Prendergast on 3 November 1933 in York, England) is a renowned Golden Globe and five-time Academy Ennio Morricone OMRI (born November 10, 1928) is an acclaimed Italian Academy Award -winning composer He eventually chose "Mad World" (1982) by Tears for Fears, who were one of his and childhood friend Gary Jules' favourite bands while growing up. " Mad World " is a song by the British band Tears for Fears. Tears for Fears (sometimes informally abbreviated to TFF are Andrews enlisted Jules to sing the song, while Andrews himself played the piano. Other songs from the film include "The Killing Moon" by Echo & The Bunnymen (another of Andrews' and Jules' favourite bands), Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart", The Church's shimmering "Under the Milky Way" in the cathartic party scene, and "Proud to Be Loud" by the '80's incarnation of the metal band Pantera. Echo & the Bunnymen are an English Post-punk group formed in Liverpool in 1978 Joy Division were an English rock band formed in 1976 in Salford, Greater Manchester. " Love Will Tear Us Apart " is a song by the British Post-punk band Joy Division. Pantera was an American heavy metal band from Arlington, Texas, formed by the Abbott brothers Vinnie Paul ( drums) and

Michael Andrews's derivative style of composing owes much to the ground-breaking Symphony No. 3 (Górecki) (Symphony of Sorrowful Songs) by Henryk Górecki , to which Cherita mimes on stage. Symphony No 3 Op. 36, also known as the Symphony of Sorrowful Songs ( Symfonia pieśni żałosnych) is a Symphony in three Henryk Mikołaj Górecki (ˈxɛnrɨk mʲiˈkɔwaj guˈrɛ͡tski (born December 6 1933 in Czernica, Silesia, Poland) is a Polish Composer An excerpt of For Whom the Bell Tolls as composed by Steve Baker and Carmen Daye starts the credit sequence at the end of the film. This music was however not included in the album-version of the soundtrack.

In the subsequent director's cut, a number of musical choices are changed. In the film's opening, "The Killing Moon" by Echo and the Bunnymen is replaced by "Never Tear Us Apart" by INXS. Echo & the Bunnymen are an English Post-punk group formed in Liverpool in 1978 INXS (pronounced "in excess" are an Australian rock and New Wave group "The Killing Moon" later replaces "Under The Milky Way" by The Church during the party scene. "Under The Milky Way" can be heard in the car scene with Donnie and his father, played on the radio.

Album

The score was not put on a soundtrack album until Andy Factor, a friend of Michael Andrews, released it on his Everloving Records independent label in 2002. As Donnie Darko was not a hit at first, there was little interest in the soundtrack in the United States. However, the film enjoyed more popularity in Europe especially in the UK where its total box office was greater than for the whole of the U. S. , and so the Donnie Darko soundtrack album was released.

This sparked interest in the soundtrack and in the song "Mad World," taken from the original soundtrack, which was a 2003 Christmas Number One in the UK singles chart. " Mad World " is a song by the British band Tears for Fears. Each year record companies compete for the Christmas number one single spot on the British charts. It has also made the charts in a number of other countries including Ireland, Denmark, the Netherlands and Australia in 2003 and 2004.

British edition

Coinciding with the release of the film's director's cut, an expanded 2-disc edition of the album was released in the UK in 2004. The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly known as the United Kingdom, the UK or Britain,is a Sovereign state located This edition included the 1980s pop songs from the film. Pop music as a genre features a noticeable rhythmic element catchy melodies and hooks, a mainstream style and conventional structure
