Actually, that music was composed by Josh Gabriel specifically for OWI. As Lorne told me last year:

:
But with the Oddworld theme; it’s funny; when we created that music… I was saying that we need a theme. I always thought of with The X‐Files— ​which actually used to be the hold music when you called Oddworld. Josh’s favourite commercial branding was the Duracell battery ‘Bong gong KUNG’—​he said ‘Three notes, man, and you know what it is, we’ve got to get that.’ So then we had the Oddworld theme and we did variations on that. So, in taking it to the next level we’ll be experimenting more and more with that. I would call them echoes of the original and then embellishing them with more time, money and budget.
