| {{Quote|Overall I think this score is a bit more intimate and personal. We're telling a human story, not a cyborg story. This isn't a space opera but a story that takes place on [[Earth]] in one city. Although the player gets to inhabit the shoes of several characters, they still primarily should feel like one person discovering the mystery that lies behind the ruins of [[New Mombasa]].|Martin O'Donnell to Music 4 Games}}

| == Trivia ==
| |
| *The movement "Orbital Drop Shock Trooper" from the Finale has a runtime of 3:43, a reference to [[Seven|7]] and possibly the eponymous [[Monitor]] [[343 Guilty Spark]]. Additionally "[[Prepare To Drop (music)|Prepare to Drop]]," named after the game's tagline, has a runtime of 1:17, a reference to [[John-117|Master Chief]].
| |
| *Marty O'Donnell was trying to evoke the feeling of jazz, while not literally creating jazz music. Throughout the soundtrack there are several songs that contain solo saxophone sections that create a lonely, urban atmosphere. In the tracks "Skyline" and "Traffic Jam" however, an electric guitar along with heavier sounding percussion are used in the more cinematic moments in the game.
| |
| *The soundtrack won several awards; the Best Original Score at the 2009 Spike Video Game Awards<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spike_Video_Game_Awards#2009_Awards '''Wikipedia''': ''2009 Spike Video Game Awards'']</ref> and Best Original Score and Sounds in the Czech Gaming Awards "Invaze 2009".{{citation needed}}
| |
| *Most of the tracks that play during [[Mombasa Streets]] have a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_noir film noir] flair, due to the jazz perspective used in the soundtrack. This seems fitting, since most film noir movies are about detectives, and [[The Rookie]] is, in a sense, a detective.
