According to the liner notes of the Alex North "2001..." score on CD, Kubrick never intended to use an original score but went along with the business people at MGM to use an original score and to use North, who they pushed on him becuase of the rousing success of his "Spartacus" music. After North had composed about 40 minutes oif music Kunrick informed him that he was going to stick with just the music North had done up to then and use brething and other effects for the remainder of the film. This was in December of 1967. North was stunned at the premiere in April of 1968 to hear only the "temporray" tracks.
