Overview
The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is the soundtrack to the Guy Ritchie-directed spy film The Man from U.N.C.L.E. based on the 1964–1968 television series of the same name. Daniel Pemberton scored the original music, in his first big-budget production, who described it as "kaleidoscope of international color" due to its dense, unpredictable blend of styles.
The soundtrack to the film consisting of 24 tracks was released by WaterTower Music on August 7, 2015, a week ahead of the film's release, and a deluxe edition, containing four bonus tracks from Pemberton's score also accompanied the album. It was further released in vinyl at a limited edition of 750 copies on November 2015. The score received critical acclaim, capturing the essence of "vintage action films" through its music.
Development
Guy Ritchie recruited Pemberton to score for the film, after being showcased with the list of composers and found Pemberton's work was unique and "didn't sound exactly like everyone else's [in the list]" meeting Ritchie's demands for a unique sound. Instead of having composers creating the score during the end of post-production, Pemberton was involved during the film's edit and closely worked with Ritchie on the soundtrack, sharing a great rapport together.
