I know there already was a theme for Beckett & the East India Trading Company, but comparing some of the score to the scenes that it goes with I noticed that there may be another theme for them. In "Singapore", at 1:28 and "I don't think now is the best time" at 0:34. Both cues are assosiated with the EAT and I just noticed that both were a similar theme. Did anyone notice this or am I wrong?

It's more of an expansion of the DMC theme.

Where the DMC variation of Beckett's theme introduced a simplistic harpsichord as its driving thematic idea, AWE introduces a more forefront melody, and the harpsichord is now relegated as the backdrop of such. You can hear that harpsichord idea if you listen closely enough in "Singapore," particularly at 1:31, and of course, in the whole of Parley"
