The preorder bonus for Fallout 3 at GameStop included an official soundtrack CD made to look like a vinyl 45 record. In taking the orchestral approach into the post-apocalyptic wasteland, he admits some inspiration from Jerry Goldsmith, but "sought to employ different techniques on the instruments they don't sound exactly like a traditional orchestra, but still retain the power of one." Inon Zur wanted to ensure that the music was not too loopy, but seamless and interactive in response to the player's actions. These included everything from ambient cues from entering an area to high-intensity battle music.
Composer Inon Zur was brought in to create the score for Fallout "because I could give them the ambience and the weird decadence plus an almost low-fi sound, but also bring up some more dramatic, orchestral elements with it when needed." The entire composition process took six months, ending with 60–70 minutes and around 40 tracks.
