Sci fi book space music soundtrack

I've been in discussion with American writer Matt Howarth who's completing a new sci fi story that I'll write the space music sound track for. It's an interesting concept; the book will be available as a pdf on the electronic music soundtrack CD, so, at this stage, beyond having a very basic overview of the story, I don't have character or plot details yet, or even a working title, so, can't really start work on the space music until I do.

But really looking forward to starting work on this project and I do have some ideas including following a very "film soundtrack" style score incorporating recurring themes and traditional electronica music atmospherics as well.

I certainly won't be trying for a Vangelis "Blade Runner" or Hans Zimmer "Last Samurai" style soundtrack, but as both are amongst my all time favorite film soundtracks, it's a fair bet to assume I'll be seeking insprirartion from those two awesome works.

As and when more information becomes available on this instrumental music project, I'll post details here.
