Elliot Goldenthal's score for the movie "Heat" is as varying and dissonant as his other works, with little to no clear cut themes but rather a broad soundscape encapsulating all the movies elements and providing an epic, ethereal and at times shattering backdrop, typical of Goldenthal's work. The score is compiled mostly with Goldenthal's orchestrations although there are a variety of other artists featured ranging from the U2/Brian Eno project Passengers, Lisa Gerrard, Moby et al.

The score

The track "New Dawn Fades" is only a part of the whole song that fades into the next track and the track "God Moving Over the Face of the Waters" is slightly different from the version used in the film, the version on the score is from Moby's album "Everything Is Wrong" and the version in the movie is from his 1997 album "I Like to Score"; Goldenthal composed and arranged the Kronos Quartet performed pieces. The Einstürzende Neubauten track "Armenia" was taken from their 1983 album "Zeichnungen des Patienten O. T." and was used by Michael Mann again in his 1999 film "The Insider".

Goldenthal composed a cue called "Hand In Hand" originally meant to be played over the end scene, but it was replaced by Moby's "God Moving Over the Face of the Waters", so he used it, replacing guitars with bagpipes, instead for the end titles to "Michael Collins". A clip of the track as it was meant to be heard in "Heat" can be heard below. There is also an "Extended Version" of the score in bootleg form, with several tracks (including "Hand in hand") which can be heard in the film but are not on the score released, available on the internet.

Various tracks that were in some points of the film but did not make it to the soundtrack included pieces by William Orbit from his "Strange Cargo" albums, namely "The Last Lagoon", "Monkey King" and "The Mighty Limpopo".

Here is a quote by Goldenthal explaining his thinking behind the score:cquote|"In Heat, Michael Mann and I were going for an atmospheric situation. It was the first time I used what I like to call a "guitar orchestra" - where I use six or eight guitars, all playing with different tunings stacked up on top of each other in a musical way, and a mixed meter of percussion. It wasn't a type of score where you needed a big orchestral theme or you had to actually hit certain actions with music at specific times. It was much closer to the European mentality of film scoring."| [ [http://www.soundtrack.net/features/article/?id=51 SoundtrackNet : Interview - Elliot Goldenthal ] ]

The guitar orchestra, who play most significantly on two of the tracks below, is called "Deaf Elk" (an ensemble which includes Page Hamilton of the metal band "Helmet") who also worked with Goldenthal for his scores, "In Dreams" and "Titus". [ [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1966119/ Deaf Elk ] ]
