If you mean RUNAWAY, Goldsmith stated that it was composed like an orchestral score, but with synthesizers in mind. It was not done with synths instead of an orchestra, but specifically written like an orchestral score, but orchestrated for synthesizers. The way RUNAWAY was done, it turned out to be a rather expensive score, too, so the electronics were not used to “save” money. For my ears, the music belongs to an electronic ensemble.
