The Incredibles soundtrack was composed by Michael Giacchino. It is the first Pixar film to be scored by Michael Giacchino. Brad Bird was looking for a specific sound as inspired by the design of the film — the future as seen from the 1960s. John Barry was the first choice to do the film's score, with a trailer of the film given a rerecording of Barry's theme to On Her Majesty's Secret Service. However Barry did not wish to duplicate the sound of some of his earlier soundtracks; the assignment was instead given to Michael Giacchino.
