《星际旅行：深空九号》摆脱了前面几个系列中带有的乌托邦色彩，更着重于战争、宗教、政治妥协以及其它的现代议题。由于它的主题较为黑暗，所以无法吸引原先主题较为光明的《下一代》的爱好者成为它的固定收视群。它也是第一个在制作时没有吉恩·罗登贝瑞参与的Star Trek系列的电视剧。 La-La Land Records proudly announces its forthcoming release of STAR TREK:DEEP SPACE NINE COLLECTION, a limited edition 4-CD soundtrack set that showcases musical highlights from episode scores as heard in all seven original seasons of the beloved sci-fi television series STAR TREK:DEEP SPACE NINE (1993 – 1999). This special collection of music features more than five hours of incredible score, selected from some of the most acclaimed episodes of this enormously successful NEXT GENERATION spin-off. STAR TREK:DEEP SPACE NINE SOUNDTRACK COLLECTION is licensed by CBS Consumer Products. Produced by Ford A. Thaxton, James Nelson, Mark Banning and Lukas Kendall, and mastered by James Nelson, this deluxe, limited-edition release of 3000 units chronicles its music on four CDs – The first disc features the music of composer Dennis McCarthy; the second disc features the music of composer Jay Chattaway; the third disc showcases music from "the new recruits," composers John Debney, David Bell, Richard Bellis, Gregory Smith and Paul Baillargeon; and the fourth disc, entitled "The Lost Album," contains an album assembly of material that was prepped by music producers and the composers for a soundtrack compilation that was never released. The set is complemented by a 36-page booklet that includes exclusive, in-depth liner notes from film music writer and Trek historian Jeff Bond.
