American composer Angelo Badalamenti had the job of setting Twin Peaks to music and he did it perfectly. Everything from the theme tune, which later became a worldwide hit fro Julee Cruise, to Laura's Theme somehow fit the atmospheric feeling of the show perfectly. Personal Note: Check out the song 'Sycamore Trees' sung by the late great Jimmy Scott and used in the final episode. — youtube.com
