Admiral Holdo 16 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Just put in my pre-order. Normally I don't do that (think the last time that happened was Super 8), but I'm confident Newman will come up with something fun.Now, that said, I'm hoping the song isn't limited to a lossy iTunes single.

Kendal_Ozzel 36 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 I'm afraid it may not be on the album, if only to boost the sales of the single. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Brausam 214 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 The album pre-order does say Various Artists though, so I'm hopeful the song will be on the disc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacck 23 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 The music on the iFly Magazine website - I feel inclined to point out that it is produced using sample libraries (e.g. not a real orchestra). Could be a mockup of Newman's stuff though - the mockup does sound very realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wycket 36 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 The album pre-order does say Various Artists though, so I'm hopeful the song will be on the disc.Unlikely. Ever since they have been co-producing with Sony, Sony Classical gets the score and the single is released on the artists' label. I'm sure that will be the same in this case. Amazon has probably just not been given the full info yet so various is just a place holder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,269 Posted October 5, 2012 Author Share Posted October 5, 2012 The cover art has been added to the Amazon UK listinghttp://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0096233ZW/The OST has been pushed back to Oct 29 as well. Released on that same day is a CD Single of Adele's song, because it won't be on the OST CDhttp://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B009KY0TE4/Release date is still Nov 6 for the US CDhttp://www.amazon.com/dp/B009FBX5M0/No word yet on if the US version WILL contain the song. alicebrallice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattyO 62 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Tracklist is out:http://filmmusicrepo...ils/#more-13227A few observations:- I hope the gunbarrel music is included in track 1- It's a nice healthy album: over 75 minutes- It doesn't appear to be in chronological order, but I'm not certain of that.- The track "Shanghai Drive" appears to be the same length as that piece that was attached to the Coke Zero ifly advertisement (curious!)- No title song on the CD, but I think that was expected by most.

Jilal 569 Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 I hope that Coke Zero music is composed by Newman. To me it sounds like music for the end of the film, somewhere in the climax.I guess it must be a cue by Newman. Why would they spend money on letting somebody compose music for the website, instead of using a cue from Newman's score? Live mixes in the recording studio are done anyway, so "the recording sessions weren't over yet" is no excuse. The horn rip at the beginning sounds very synth-y though.

Plus, the 10 minute video blog they released last week looked as if it showed Craig filming a new sequence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newman is delightfully restrained compared to Arnold. Notice there's a couple of palm muted guitars, strings, brass, drum kit, bass, and that's pretty much it. Less is more.I agree. It's just a little bit more on the friendly side. You're even more right when you realize the second sample in the video is straight out of Camille's Story in Quantum of Solace. Straight up temp-track rip.There's a solo alto flute here, and a pan flute in Camille's Story, but apart from that, where's the similarity? The lush, silky muted strings are far more sensual than anything Arnold gave us in his decade of tyranny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notice there's a couple of palm muted guitars, strings, brass, drum kit, bass, and that's pretty much it. Less is more.I don't know, I think he is more "blurred" compared to Arnold. Lots of paddy wallpapery textural instruments. But there's definitely a lot there. Because I agree with you, less is more. I just don't get that with Newman's work here. It's still too full. Even then "less" is also trickier to pull off effectively, because of the degree of problem-solving required on the part of the composer, and Newman hasn't blown me away with his genuinely less is more works.
