No pub, I guess I don't have it in me to see the world in the narrow, competitive way you do, pitting composers against each other like a game of top trumps.

 

I don't know what it is but it's an air of elitism and arrogance that I detect in comments like yours.

Can someone do me a favor?  Can someone break down what film scenes are scored by the tracks on the OST that follow Into the Maw?  There's so much going on on Savereen.  I appreciate it. Thanks.

I watched Solo again last night. Second time. Some pointed out how the coaxium reveal in Train Heist wasn't on the OST. I noticed there's a good twenty seconds of music missing from the OST Marauders Arrive for the part of the film when the viper droids are activated and Val shoots a few on the bridge. Am I wrong?

So new art for Solo was posted on Star Wars.com for use in a BD cover, I made a custom cover using that art which I posted in the Star Wars Custom Covers thread

You are correct. I had both of those film versions on my channel, you know, before it was deleted.

This really is a great score. Looking very likely that it will be my favourite one this year unless JNH pulls off something incredible for Nutcracker or Fantastic Beasts.

Going off of JNH's FB1 score, which I think is great, I think Solo beats it hands down.

No cues credited to Williams? Don't we know the latter half of Dice & Roll was Williams? 

Nope. None of the cues are credited to Williams on there. The credits in my post are as they are in the GEMA entries.

 

Edit: Just found these credited to Williams:

The Han Solo Theme [Alt titles: The Adventures of Han / Solo: a Star Wars Story - Main Title Theme]

Kessel Run Pt 1 - TIE Chase A

Kessel Run Pt 1 - TIE Chase C

The concert version of "Mine Mission" premiered in Ghent this week, at the "2001 and Beyond" concert at the Film Fest.

 

If I remember correctly, it was almost the whole OST cue but ended with a special concert ending.

The YouTube account called "FilmScoreMedia" that uploaded the Solo complete score, custom edits of the prequel complete scores, and other rare stuff got taken down for copyright. Does anyone know who that was or if their stuff can be heard elsewhere?

Same name and everything? That doesn't seem like the wisest thing to do. If you're reading this, what videos caused the copyright strikes?

 

Of course, thanks for trying to reinstate everything.

That's my channel, and yes I'm reading this. I've made a new channel like this a couple times in the past, with the same name, etc. I actually made this channel about 5 years ago in case my main channel ever got taken down; YouTube won't let me change the name even if I wanted to. The only affected videos were the officially-released tracks from TLJ, which I will not be reuploading. Everything else is safe to upload, and I am currently in the process of reuploading them. I'm saving all of my rendered videos this time, so if this ever happens again, I can just make yet another channel and continue the cycle; but this time I plan on being more careful with what I upload in the future, and will be monitoring copyright notices carefully to avoid it happening again.

Using the cue titles posted by @CGCJ via the GEMA repertoire, I tried to give a rough idea as to the order of the cues, using what we know from the OST, the Blu-Ray rips that @Manakin Skywalker did, and my own memory of the film. This is what I've been able to put together. There are some question marks and possible mistakes, but I gave it a shot. I also put in what the OST equivalent would/might be and for other cues clarification as to what it goes to in the film. Please remember that this is all myself and nothing is certain.

UNKNOWN PLACEMENT:

MOE [John Powell]

Crawl [John Powell]

 

OST- The official soundtrack album.

FSM- Cue that was ripped by Manakin Skywalker and was previously available to listen to on his YouTube channel- Film Score Media. I did my best to remember the names he had associated to the tracks.

JERRY Title- The name Jerry ascribes to a cue.

*Cue Title surrounded by ?---------?  and highlighted in red means unsure placement/ possible ordering issue.

 

One last time, this is just to get a rough idea of placements. This is not official information.

Here's my attempt at sorting the cue titles with the the OST. (Probably off on a lot of the cue divides but this was done after a quick check of the film)

 

 

Here's all of the cues with known reel/part numbers:

1m4­-5 Corellia Chase [Batu Sener]

2m13 Chewie Untamed [Anthony Willis]

2m16A Conveyex [John Powell]

2m16B Enfys Nest Arrives [Batu Sener]

3m18s Chicken in the Pot [John Powell] - Presumably "Dryden Yacht Duet".

4m30B Mines Pt.2: Finding Coaxium [John Powell]

 

And the OST credits:

Spoiler

Meet Han [John Powell/John Williams]

Corellia Chase [John Powell/Batu Sener]

Spaceport [John Powell/John Williams/Anthony WIllis]

Flying with Chewie [John Powell/John Williams/Anthony WIllis]

Yes, @CGCJ and @Falafel I see MOE and Crawl make sense now.

 

CGCJ, regarding your break down, the cue Skype Showdown, which we assume is corresponding to Qi'ra's unexpected hologram message, is actually not included on the OST as you've put here:

Skype Showdown                 18 Good Thing You Were Listening [00:00-01:03]   2:07     John Powell     Duel of the Fates heavy Skype opening cut

Do we not hear the end of it going into the "Showdown" part on the OST track? The music from the very end of the scene is definitely in the first few seconds of the track, with the "Skype" part seemingly just edited out. I may be looking at this wrong but I'm taking the cue to be "Skype/Showdown" but I could be wrong. (The music copyright sites often remove punctuation from titles) I just don't see any kind of showdown in the scene and the OST makes it seem like the cue covers both scenes. I definitely could be wrong, though.

Doesn't that play as 

Spoiler

Qi'ra sails away in the yacht, which comes after Beckett's Death which the OST track covers. 

However, that statement also plays just before the hologram I believe. It's the end of Testing Allegiance.

I'll double check, but you may be right there.

It plays up until Han shoots Beckett and then we get unreleased music for Beckett's death and the very end of the OST track comes in as Chewie places his hand on Han's shoulder as they watch Qi'ra fly off, seemingly with 01:03-01:46 being unused; but would seem to fit with Qi'ra flying off and what covers that in the film could be tracked? This is all just guess work, after a quick view of the scene, of-course.

I be will rewatching the scene and scrutinize the OSt tracks and get back to that one.

 

Your complete analysis linking the OST to the cues is very well done. I'm sure we'll hopefully get further clarification from Powell and sources, and maybe an FYC can get us some more unreleased material (I already know after listening to Manakin's clips what I'd be hoping for in a possible FYC release).

When @Manakin Skywalker posted the Solo Blu-Ray rip clips on his YouTube channel (by now I think we've all heard, but his original channel had some licensing issues from Disney, and he's reuploading his content on a back-up account), I wrote down what he had done in order to suppose a possible FYC. As you have seen before with the OST, I decided to work up some pun titles for the score, now including the once-existing excerpts by Manakin.

Some more cue titles! (From UBC)

 

All of these are credited to John Powell.

 

Blackmail Cont'd

Crawl (From 1M04-05) [Corellia Chase]

Crawl (From 2M13) [Chewie Untamed]

Crawl (From 4M28)

Crawl (From 4M30B) [Mines Pt.2: Finding Coaxium]

MOE (From 5M32)

 

Looks like Crawl is in-fact the end credits! Hopefully from this we can figure out what 4M28 & 5M32 are.

 

Edit: Just checked the credits (the version from the FilmScoreMedia YouTube channel) and here's how it breaks down:
00:00-00:29 Standard Star Wars Theme credits opening
00:29-01:00 [5M32?] Kessel Run Pt 1 - TIE Chase (B?)
01:00-01:27 2M13 Chewie Untamed (Pt 1? - Alt end?)
01:27-03:01 [4M28?] Lando's Closet (With alt ending?/Mixed with another love theme excerpt from different cue?)
03:01-04:40 4M30B Mines Pt.2: Finding Coaxium
04:40-06:27 1M04-05 Corellia Chase
06:27-End 2M13 Chewie Untamed (Pt 3?)

Yeah, I love these :) Still missing the source cue from just before 'Dice and Roll' in the film though;)

Source music is a bitch to rip. I decided to just ignore them for now unfortunately. There's some unreleased stuff after Chicken in the Pot too I believe.

Yep, some cha-cha-cha with whistling and steel drums. Mixed terribly low. I can wait decades.

I don't care for source music that much, especially if I can hardly even hear it in the film. I could have done without Chicken in the Pot on the OST.

@Manakin Skywalker I've been listening to your Solo uploads. They're great. Do you have possibly cleaner rips at all? Just curious.

Impossible. Unfortunately the 7.1 Blu-Ray rip is the cleanest source available at this point. However, it is probable that we will be getting an FYC release sometime during the fall/early winter, like we did with the other films. So we can expect at least a few new cues in the coming month or so, hopefully.

For anyone interested, I had to remove ALL of my Solo videos just now. I got a second copyright strike, this time for "Beckett's Betrayal", which was filled to the rim with SFX. It appears they're going after anything and everything now. All I have left on my channel is PT and OT music as this point, and if they go after those, then I'm officially quitting YouTube and moving to a different platform. I guarantee that by the end of today my channel is going to be disabled.
