Scientist/Astronaut John Crichton beings an interplanetary trek when his experimental vehicle is thrust through a wormhole into a massive offensive waged by an alien race of mercenaries called "Peacekeepers." After pirating a "living" prison ship named Moya, Crichton and a group of escaped prisoners travel through the uncharted territories. This impromptu band of rebels encounters exotic lands and extraordinary civilizations as Crichton tries to find a way back to Earth - discovering that he is farther from home than he ever dreamed possible.

"The original design of FARSCAPE as a series was to be, at once, emotional, evocative, diverse and distinctive. Finding composers to execute this vision musically was a hugely important piece of the puzzle. Never did we expect to discover two such talents -- each special in their/his own way. We hope that the tracks included here provide you with as much enjoyment as they have us."

    23. Theme From FARSCAPE - Reprise 0:48

Farscape is a composer's dream come true. It calls for a musical feast from the sublime to the ridiculous. A typical Farscape episode contains sequences from the wonderfully bombastic to the subtlety intimate and everything in between. In the "Uncharted Territories" there's no such thing as too much - in either musical direction.

Classically trained, I'm best known for my orchestral approach to film scoring albeit often created with samplers. My writing approach is very much dialogue driven.

I really enjoy weaving in and around the ups and downs of the spoken word. And as the performances are so great it's a wonderful source of inspiration. I'm also not afraid to call upon the classic genre of science fiction scoring. I find when I deviate too far from the "expected" it draws the viewers attention away from the story telling which must be paramount in everybody's contribution to the film.

I first got involved in Farscape when I scored the original 3 minute US trailer. The producers asked me to join the team a few episodes into the second series and I've been loving it ever since.

I hope the fans enjoy my contribution and allow it to draw them into the uncharted world of Farscape.

Advance copies of the Farscape soundtrack CD were distributed in 2000 as part of a marketing promotion. The advance copies include the same disk as the final version; they also use the same front cover design, differing only in the printing quality and the disk number (the final release is numbered GNPD 8068, while the advance promotion release is numbered GNPD-PRO 8068).

Rather than a full booklet of liner notes inside the jewelcase, a single sheet folded in half lists the track titles and lengths; these two interior "pages" are simply a black and white version of the track listings from the final released version of the liner notes.

The back of the folded track listings sheet is a collage image of several characters.

The rear cover of the case is quite different from the final release. As on the front cover, a different catalog number is referenced (GNPD-PRO 8068). There is no UPC number or barcode. Additionally, a small hole is punched through the lower righthand corner of the case back, to ensure the copy won't enter the retail market, and the cover's text includes the restriction "Advance Promotional Copy. Not for Commercial Sale".
