Body of Lies is the soundtrack of the film of the same name. It was released on October 14, 2008 by Varèse Sarabande. German-born film composer Marc Streitenfeld reunited with director Ridley Scott to score the film, marking his third score in a row and eighth consecutive music collaboration with Scott.
Streitenfeld traveled to Morocco to collaborate with Scott for the spy film, which required a score to support its technological and political style. Streitenfeld used a 90-piece orchestra as well as woods and choir to create the score. Recording all the elements separately allowed Streitenfeld to have more command over the final sound mix.[1]
