Muad'Dib 1,800 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Well, according to FSM they got a keyboardist from the Bee Gees along too?Rudi Dobson, according to a quick seach: one-time Bee Gees keyboardist, who can apparently compose "epic soundscapes".

Muad'Dib 1,800 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Also, Thomas Newman is no longer listed as composer on the IMDB page for The Good Dinosaur if that means anything (it probably doesn't) and Alejandro de la Llosa, who's worked on a couple John Williams scores of recent years is listed as "music supervisor". One can only hope...Was he there before? I can't remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon Hill 4,232 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 JNH is great, and a "soundscape keyboardist" is... an interesting idea. Iglesias is very fine too though and I want to see what he can do on that scale. I don't know if this business is intriguing then, or if it's bullshit.Knowing Scott, it's almost definitely the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A24 4,326 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 No film is able to contain Ridley Scot direction and a good, well-developed movie score. And yet, I can't imagine a better score for Blade Runner (Vangelis) or even The Duellists (Howard Blake). And I know many don't like what is left of Alien but I think it serves the film perfectly. However, I don't care for the Marc Streitenfeld scores. They are like Scott's movies. Everything feels like it's been manufactured on the conveyor belts of Scott Free Enterprises.

crocodile 7,982 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 According to one poster on FSM, James Newton Howard was brought in to work on Exodus: Gods and Kings. So does that mean Iglesias is off the project? That would have been not good. Howard can do a great job, don't get me wrong.Anyway, someone needs to confirm this. For now, it's just a rumour.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For now, it's just a rumour.KarolYes, just read that too, and was coming here to ask...according to here, there are 3 composers:http://rcbollywoodsongs.com/exodus-gods-and-kings-trailer-posterscast-releasing-date/Rudi Dobson is the 3rd.Rudi Dobson has been plugged into music from a young age – he started playing piano at age five and by age 11 decided to focus on electronic music after seeing legendary keyboard player Rick Wakeman perform in the 1980s. Rudi eventually became proficient enough to work with his idol and other artists, including the Bee Gees, Foreigner, The Cars, Don Henley, Paul Simon and others. Dobson is also a noted film composer and music producer who is currently working with a Hollywood director on a new movie version of the biblical epic and crafting larger-than-life sounds with HARMAN’s Lexicon MX400 Reverb/Effects Processor.http://www.lexiconpro.com/en/news/keyboardistcomposer-rudi-dobson-crafts-epic-soundscapes-with-harmans-lexicon-mx400-reverbeffects-pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muad'Dib 1,800 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I thought the point of hiring a Spanish composer was for the cheaper taxes or something like that.... What a way to throw that money down the toilet by hiring not one but two other composers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
