Miguel -- THANKS SO MUCH! Not exactly what I was looking for, but weird enough that it'll do. And no no, I'm in no way trying to 'modernize' Jaws or lacking respect for the original! I was just looking for something 'funky' for a Halloween Mix for my boyfriend. rsp3studio -- Nice that someone here is willing to do remixes of Williams on demand! But sorry man, I'm not THAT serious about finding a remix! Nor, as a poor college student, do I have the funds necessary. But I agree with the others that I'd love to hear the takes on E.T. and Potter! As for the topic of remixes of film scores in general, I find them to be rather hit-or-miss depending. I've personally got dance remixes from The Incredibles, Requiem for a Dream, Brokeback Mountain, The Ring, and Pirates of the Caribbean. Some are more successful than the others, and I know lots more exist, everything from the aforementioned Duel of the Fates to The Skeleton Key (?!?). A very odd sub-genre to be sure.

Short and sweet: just wondering whether anyone knows of a techno remix / electronica / techno version of the 'theme from Jaws' exists? My boyfriend's trying to assemble a Halloween mix-disc and I wasn't able to find many Williams-remixes. Blasphemy that they may be.

It's about a water nymph. And there are also some wolves involved. That's about all I know But this is, without a doubt, my most anticipated score of the summer

If you could only pick one Williams score to get a complete-

DEFINITELY HOOK .... and then HP1 or 3 -
Random question, but can anyone tell me if the Kingdom 4-disc set comes with a booklet of any kind in the front pocket? My friend got an advance copy to review a month or so back and we've been debating ever since whether a purchased copy would come with a booklet or not (as his did not).

Which past Oscar shows do you have on tape/DVD?
Dalboz replied to Josh500's topic in General Discussion
Me too! I'd love to hear this year's suite again! I totally forgot to tape it! :oops: While I definetely think "Memoirs" should've won the score oscar, I thought that the rendition of Brokeback's "The Wings" in the Pearlman suite was the most gorgeous version of it I'd ever heard. -
Aren't you glad Williams scored Geisha instead of Potter?
Dalboz replied to Ollie's topic in General Discussion
Then why vote "no"? If Williams had scored GOF you wouldn't have Doyle's. So I voted "yes" 'cause I think Memoirs is excellent, and in the process we got TWO great scores. -
I haven't seen the film (it didn't play near me), but I've listened to the score a few times. Won my copy fer free from Soundtrack.net! Sadly, overall, I think it's very forgettable. I enjoyed Chocolat and The Legend of Bagger Vance, but found 'Twist' to be rather bland underscore for most of the album. Maybe I just kept zoning out more than usual and missed all the interesting parts. :? -Matt

Not that there doesn't seem to be huge backlash against this comp, but I just thought I'd let everyone know: If any other suckers, like me, exist out there who HAVEN'T picked up the Revenge of the Sith score, my local Target had the 3-discs-packaged-together edition on sale for a measly $9 yesterday!! Needless to say, I DO now own it. But seriously! The score, the dvd, and the corellian compilation disc all for nine bucks! Can't beat that.

It's "letterboxed" widescreen, in effect, but not shrunk as the screen is much much larger than normal movie screens. I'm going to see the IMAX showing near me right now, actually, and I prefer it not so much for the larger screen, but for the 12,000 watts of wondrous digital surround-sound
-
HA! That's kinda fun, in a JW-goes-clubbing sorta way. 8O Any idea where a full recording can be found? Although I agree, the original is better.

Just for clarification's sake, No, Narnia is definetely NOT a made-for-tv production this time around. -Matt

Harry Potter & The Prisoner Azkaban rear channel extract
Dalboz replied to Jay's topic in General Discussion
Sorry to get everyone's hopes up that Jason's done with his rip by bumping this back to the top ... just wanted to post another comp of a front and back covers for an HP3 complete score disc set that I did ... I was gonna do more, but back covers are just SO time consuming, that at this point in time without a "confirmed" actual tracklisting it's too time-consuming to make something only to have to change it again ... Anyways, here's my #2 "Quidditch" covers. Feedback appreciated! (and I couldn't find anything in the board rules about image sizes for posts, so hope these are ok!) -Matt -
I wasn't aware that this score got a release ... or even a promo ... where'd you find music from it? -Matt

Harry Potter & The Prisoner Azkaban rear channel extract
Dalboz replied to Jay's topic in General Discussion
Whoo hoo! Thanks Jason! Can't wait for it to be done! And I don't have a terribly large ammount of tradable-stuff, so I'll be vying for the freebie once I get a couple ideas finished. Work-in-progress #1: -Matt -
http://www.oscarwatch.com/FYC/ The Hollywood Reporter this week is their Fall Music Film/TV issue so most of the For Your Consideration ads for scores, thus far, have come from that. - Matt

TV Spot 1: "The Magic Box" (Alan Silvestri), "Stargate" (David Arnold) TV Spot 2: "Stargate" (David Arnold) TV Spot 3: "Peter Pan" (James Newton Howard) TV Spot 4: ??????????

Nope. Definetely in widescreen. I can't testify to whether it was exactly the same as the normal theatrical cut as I haven't seen it yet, but on a 5 story tall by 7 story wide screen, it probably used up a good 3 of t he stories tall and the full width. Quidditch will never be the same to me without the IMAX screen. It was increadible. -Matt

I deciced to forgo the midnight showing at the nearest theater to me so I can see POA in the IMAX about 45 mins away around 7:00 pm later today. I'm a big advocate for widescreen (and the death of pan-and-scan) but even if the picture is cropped for the IMAX release, I'm going for the SOUND. Because dear lord: the speakers are INCREADIBLE and I can't wait to hear the newest JW score THAT LOUD. Seeing the last 2 Matrix films there was absolutely amazing. So yeah, I'm sure someone will get to this before I do, but if not, I'll post when I get back how it was and if the picture was cropped. -Matt

After a short montage of clips from the album, an audio quote from Williams on working 6 and a half days a week, they're playing "A Window to the Past"

Catch Me If You Can Credits Parodied on Tonights Simpsons
Dalboz replied to Lurker's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
My roomie recorded the show, and I've managed to encode just the "Catch Me" credits-spoof into Quicktime. It's about 20 mbs, and 320x240. I have no place to host the file, but PM me if you want it, and I'd be more than happy to IM it to anyone or upload it somewhere if someone has webspace or an FTP server. It's pretty funny, and very well done, imho. :spiny: (and I repeat, it's not the whole episode, just the 1:30 clip) -
Got this from a recent USA Today article, and although it doesn't tell us ANYTHING new, I thought it was worth mentioning: "Light, or lack of it, will play an important part in the film. Cuarón has created a distinctly different look, with the colors darker and more muted, the music more haunting, and the tone edgier." from: http://www.usatoday.com/life/movies/news/2...tter-main_x.htm

Whoops! Yes I do. :oops: Thanks Neil! -Matt

I have the Star Wars singles for Cantina Band, The Imperial March, and Lapti Nek. They're actually pretty lavish as far as singles are concerned: die-cut or partially see-through, with cases slightly thicker than modern slimline cases and fold-out liners. ....... granted, I have NO idea where these are now, but they're in my house somewhere.
