The Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Collection is a collection of episode scores from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Produced by La-La Land Records, the four-disc release – which was limited to 3,000 units – contains selected cues from 41 episodes.
The release includes a 36-page booklet featuring commentary from Jeff Bond and cover artwork by Gary Hutzel.
The collection was first suggested as a possibility following the release of Star Trek: The Next Generation Collection, Volume One, and was formally revealed as a four-disc set at Comic-Con 2012. [1] The release date was confirmed on 16 January 2013.
The fourth disc – subtitled "The Lost Album" – features material prepared for a Deep Space Nine soundtrack that was never released. [2]
