Cowboys & Aliens (soundtrack)

The Cowboys & Aliens soundtrack is the musical score composed by Harry Gregson-Williams for the 2011 science fiction Western film Cowboys & Aliens, directed by Jon Favreau. The score blends traditional Western musical elements, such as twangy guitars, harmonica, and orchestral arrangements evocative of classic Western films, with more contemporary and science fiction-inspired sounds, including synthesizers and electronic textures, to reflect the film's hybrid genre. The music aims to capture the vastness of the American West while also creating an unsettling and otherworldly atmosphere for the alien presence. The soundtrack was released digitally and physically alongside the film's release.
