Sean Callery is a film and television composer best known for writing the theme to the television show 24, a show for which he completed a full soundtrack. His other big projects include the 2004 James Bond video game, Everything or Nothing and the television series La Femme Nikita. He has recently completed the soundtrack of 24: The Game, exclusively out for the Playstation 2 which is based on the show. Callery’s distinction lies in his integration of music, live sound, and extraordinarily sophisticated “sound effects” created through elaborate computer manipulations. Passages reminiscent of the most advanced work in the realm of “electroacoustic music” occur supporting the characteristic mood of “24” without using any sounds normally thought of as musical. Callery’s experiences working for New England Digital (creators of one of the best digital synthesizers of the 1980s) and as sound effects designer/editor for the Star Trek: Deep Space 9 series prepared him for the creation of such a soundtrack as 24.
Including John Powell, Michael Giacchino, Eric Serra, Brian Tyler, Hans Zimmer and more…

I love this music, I really do and have it on CD. To perpetuate the cliche - it really is another character to a CLASSIC TV show (roll on season SEVEN of 24 that we've been made to wait an extra YEAR for!! Redefined the word "suspense"!)

So far I haven't noticed, but what's the track they used in season 4 when Jack robbed a petrol station to keep a guy there for a while?

I still reckon his season 1 stuff pwns anything else he's come up with...'Up And Down Stairs', 'Jack In The Limo', 'LA at 9AM' <<my fav, 'Amnesia'. Just got a hold of s4/5 album and while some of the tracks are ok, they're warming on me, but I don't feel it's anywhere near as dynamic as previous seasons had been. More bombastic and so many patriotic/garbage undertones. Still, anything he does is good xD

Sean Callery is a legend, and the 24 score is... incredible, even more so as its a TV series. But then nothing about 24 is bad.

Just listening to the season 4 & 5 soundtrack again makes me realise how much I'm going to miss not having a season of 24 this year. I think I'm going to have to do some re-watching to make up for it...

Sean Callery blew up 24 in the Season 5. Even though the Seasons soundtracks before were excellent. Sean, is a GENIUS understanding what soundtrack creation can make an serial tv show AMAZING and ADDICTIVE. Sean is a MASTER about his background in symphonic knowledges and rythmes expertises thru a great sense of EMOTION understanding. Stay close to that guy for great movies in theatres...

Jack Storms The Gas Plant is not nearly high enough on the top tracks. Truly epic. Though Collette's Arrest is superb and it seems everyone else recognises this too :)

Just bought the second soundtrack CD (Seasons Four and Five) and I'm glad to finally have most of my favourite pieces from the show on CD. Sean's music really adds a lot to the most memorable scenes on the show.

The new 24 soundtrack is definitely up-to-par with the first.

Sean is amazing, a pure genius. I don't think they could have gotten a better person to compose for 24.
