Disco Stu 15,495 Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Listened to Azkaban for the 2nd time today!. Dunno why, just in the mood. The climax of the film and the score, 1:13-2:00 below, just about brings me to tears it's so beautiful. The performance of the "Window to the Past" theme on horn with the gorgeous choir underneath. My God. Hats off to you maestro. Anybody know how much music is unreleased from this score? It's like 20-30 minutes, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 7,984 Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Die Hard 2: Die Harder by Michael Kamen. Now this score kicks some serious butt. It builds on the material from the previous score and kicks into high hear. It takes a while to get going but once it warms up it doesn't let go. What a fantastic and mischievous action extravaganza. The first score is a great suspense score with a couple of superb action setpieces. This one is one of my favourite action scores of all time. Having Don Davis handling the orchestrations doesn't hurt either. Karol Dixon Hill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,300 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 John Williams - Jurassic Park (Complete) I am loving the new La-La Land presentation, its a great way to listen to this score. Williams score this film so well!John Williams - The Lost World (Complete) Even more impressive is the sequel score, which benefits massively from another 40 minutes of his crazy orchestrations and powerhouse action tracks (though there's plenty of new buildup and suspense too). Fantastic score. Ramin Djawadi - WestWorld (OST) I didn't like the way all the piano cues are mixed in between the score cues - couldn't they have just done a second EP for the rest of that stuff, and had the LP be solely his original score? On first listen, only "Sweetwater" and "The Nitro Heist" made an impression on me; I will certainly listen again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

publicist 4,643 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I liked Mica Levi's 'Under The Skin' and she surely doesn't disappoint here: a musically sophisticated portrait built on a medium-sized string section it's great to have young(ish) musicians who still know how to write original music instead of copycatting hoary old clichés. crocodile 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK 3,307 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I was a bit disappointed by that one. There were some interesting moments, but beyond pushing some extended techniques, it rang hollow for me. Like a Greenwood score with far less substance.

But also feels a bit like Desplat with an anxiety disorder. I do like Greenwood, KK. But I also think he goes a bit overboard sometimes, dramatically. And he does tend to overwrite slightly. He has interesting instincts and is certainly skilled at what he does. But I'm not entirely convinced he's such a good dramatist. It works for Paul Thomas Anderson's self-important (and they are!) films. But not so sure whether that would work in other type of film. And that is why Jackie is the type of score that seems to fulfill all the artsy drama requirements but also feels restrained enough to serve itself (as opposed to the film serving its music). And, as pub said, she Mica Levi did wonders for Under the Skin so I trust her.\\ Lair by John Debney Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
