24: The Soundtrack, released on December 7, 2004 in the US, is an album based on the Fox television drama series 24. It contains nineteen tracks of music composed exclusively for the first three seasons by producer Sean Callery, including the show's full theme song, which has never been aired.
The music is a hybrid mix of electronic pulses and rich orchestral textures, meant to give each episode its own sound yet remain consistent with the rest of the series to complement the show's "real-time" format. The album insert contains various photographs from the three seasons and also includes Callery's comments about how he went about producing each track. The liner notes also list which specific episode each track comes from. The album was released by Varèse Sarabande and Fox Music in the US, Virgin TV in the UK, and EMI in Japan.
This album has been released with the Copy Control protection system in some regions.
Callery received 8 nominations for a Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Music Composition for the series; he won the award three times, in 2003, 2006 and 2010.
