#LOST SOUNDTRACK ANALYSIS (Michael Giacchino's score)
"Because it happened to your sister."
What "What Kate Does" does is explore four new themes... among them a few concerning the storyline of one Claire Littleton, who makes her big return in this episode. Go watch it!

So many years after the show's ending, Michael Giacchino's amazing soundtrack for LOST still has many, many secrets to uncover. Not only does every main character have their own theme music, but much like the interconnected writing of the show itself, Giacchino's score connects locations, scenes, emotions and conflicts in unbelievably brilliant ways. For the foreseeable future, I will be exploring Michael Giacchino's soundtrack from ABC's LOST in a weekly video, covering all episodes of the show and their musical connections to each other.

This simple synthesizer motif shares part of its melody with the shows main theme. In two of its four appearances throughout season 1, it precedes a variation on the “island theme” (#10). Also, rain!

Michael Giacchino considers himself a storyteller first and a musician second. On LOST, his soundtrack doesnt just suit the story of the show - it adds to it. By attaching certain scenes to established characters, locations, emotions and events through his music, Giacchino provides additional context and meaning to whats happening on screen. This way, understanding Giacchinos rich collection of themes and leitmotifs is another way to further appreciate the score, as well as the show in general.
