Pee-wee's Big Adventure - Soundtrack

Soundtrack

To compose the film score, Burton brought in Danny Elfman, who had previously composed the music for Forbidden Zone. Elfman already had the main title theme written before he signed on. At the time, Elfman was the lead singer of Oingo Boingo, but the working relationship between Burton and Elfman would continue for most of Burton's films.
