TVWeek has an exclusive interview with JJ Abrams:
J.J. Abrams is putting his musical stamp on another series.Here is the FRINGE theme song from the title sequence.
The prolific writer-producer told TelevisionWeek on Monday that, yes, he has penned the theme song for "Fringe," the new Fox drama he created with Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman. By doing so, Mr. Abrams is following a pattern that's been in place since he first started writing for television.
Mr. Abrams' TV songwriting career began when he wrote "A New Version of You," the second of two themes used on his WB drama "Felicity." He followed that with the elecronica-inspired beats used to open "Alias." And most recently, Mr. Abrams came up with the familiar tones heard at the beginning of every episode of "Lost."
The string-heavy introduction to "Fringe" came to Mr. Abrams while he was getting ready to go to bed one night. Check out this exclusive video interview and watch him explain exactly how the "Fringe" theme was born.

Dang, in a decade or so this guy's body of work is going to be mind-boggling! Not that it isn't already. It's a wonderful thing to watch a creative mind at work.
Thanks for sharing all the interesting info!
:-)
He's so creative!(Abrams)....just listen to him on the above interviews...the theme is going to be very memorable very shortly..amazing.
It reminds me a lot of the theme from Dexter.
Mr. J.J.Abrams, if you wrote the original theme song to FOX's Fringe, how could you let them change it? The new opening music I heard tonight, February 25, 2011, at 8PM CST, just disappointed the heck out of me. I went immediately and commented on Twitter, then later thought I should try to reach someone more important.
Thank you, James W. Nelson
