On 4 January 2013, it was announced that Rick Smith of the band Underworld would be composing the music for the film. Underworld previously contributed tracks to other Danny Boyle films, including "Trainspotting" (1996), "A Life Less Ordinary" (1997), "The Beach" (2000), and "Sunshine" (2007). About the collaboration, Smith said, "After finishing the Opening Ceremony, I hardly knew what day of the week it was. I took a month off work, off music, off everything. Exactly one month and three days after we said goodbye in the stadium, I received a text from Danny that said, 'Do you ever want to hear from me again workwise and would that go as far as having a chat about "Trance"... Questions, questions.' Two Minutes later I was on board." The soundtrack album for "Trance" was released in the United Kingdom on 25 March and in the United States on 2 April 2013.
