KK 3,307 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Just listening to these....It sounds like the suspense music from The Barrels Out of Bond from DoS. Strange.This motif is in "Thief in the Night", I think it's a new burglar motif!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK 3,307 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Damn....there are a LOT of recurring motifs and bits.As usual Shore proves that things are more connected than he had us believe...Anyone us feel the percussion is a bit dry by the way? There's lots of it, but doesn't sound as organic as LOTR, or even AUJ.- Im not sure whether the sound of it (in terms of wetness) is similar to LOTR, but I'm not really get that wonderful archaic soundYeah, this is surprisingly lacking.By the way, Ironfoot sounds epic!

mstrox 6,647 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I'll likely give in and listen to some of the soundclips some day... But, with DoS, I thought I'd hate the score from the early clips - and then I liked it much more than AUJ. So I don't think it'll be indicative of the score as a whole for me, maybe just whet my appetite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK 3,307 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I'm loving the screeching for the bats in "Battle for the Mountain", and then the brutal Goblintown style music in the "Darkest Hour". Oh and the choral cluster in "The Fallen" is lovely.And I love the reprise in Ravenhill, especially with the woodwinds on top An Ancient Enemy!Nice to hear the Descending Thirds closer to how it sounds in FOTRWhich cue?

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Surely Pope decided that those themes weren't adequate for the direction he was taking the score. Dixon Hill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,319 Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 Wow, a lot has happened since I went to sleep and when I woke up!OK, here we go! My thoughts on the 30 second Amazon UK samples01 Fire And WaterDragon Sickness chords playing the whole time! Cool new variant of Smaug's Theme towards the end 02 Shores Of The Long LakeSeems like it's building up to the Tauriel/Kili love theme, a lot of this is similar to Feast of Starlight 03 Beyond Sorrow And Grief (Extended Version)Not much to say, more building up, Smuag-ish strings towards the end 04 Guardians Of The Three (Extended Version)choral Lothorien opens the sample, then we hear what almost sounds like that new variant of Sauron's Theme before it ends with the Necromancer's Theme 05 The Ruins Of DaleErebor Theme is a cool march-like variant! 06 The Gathering Of The Clouds (Extended Version)The Woodland Realm theme is a cool march-like variant! Towards the end we hear what I used to call Thranduil's Theme when I first heard DOS before people on this board pointed out it's like that Thorin's Pride / Bilbo's Burglar whatever it is theme. 07 MithrilDragon Sickness again, with Smaug's B Theme coming in in a really cool ethereal way towards the end 08 Bred For WarThe Woodland Realm in a cool new eerie variant. At the end the sample is just about to go into what sounds like some cool Descending Thirds stuff 09 A Thief In The NightWhat the!? The incidental music from Barrels Out Of Bond returns... so I guess Shore has turned this in a new Burglar theme for Bilbo? Even though he already had a different one in AUJ? Weird! 10 The Clouds BurstMore Dragon Sickness (quite a prevalent theme in the score it seems!) 11 Battle For The MountainBattle music! Descending Thirds gets a little extension or something 12 The Darkest HourYikes, themes certainly don't seem to be going well! 13 Sons Of DurinWOW! Thorin's Theme in battle mode backed by male choir! Kind of like the An Ancient Enemy choir from AUJ, except not as evil 14 The FallenSad version of Thorin's Theme 15 RavenhillWOW! An Ancient Enemy from AUJ reprise!! 16 To The Death (Extended Version)Sounds like Legolas Vs Bolg music 17 Courage And WisdomNice 18 The Return JourneyNice 19 There And Back AgainWhat the!? That new Burglar motif from Barrels Out Of Bond / A Thief In The Night returns end. I cannot possibly imagine what that is doing here.... 20 The Last GoodbyeFirst impression: Reminds me of Into The West from ROTK. Second impression: A bit of The Beatle's Yesterdays as well. I'm liking it more with each listen.Lyrics in the sample: "The Last Goodbye Night is now fallingSo is this dayThe road is now callingAnd I must away Over hill, and under tree" 21 Ironfoot (Extended Version)WOW! Well I guess Shore wrote a new theme for Dain instead of using the one from AUJ, which is unfortunate I guess, but what can you do. No idea if this is a 6 minute suite of just dwarven material or a full end credits suite, but damn I really can't wait to hear it all! This is really cool with the Uillean Pipes! 22 Dragon-Sickness (Bonus Track)No idea why Doug tweeted that this is from DOS, cause it sounds all brand new to me! I hear Smaug's Theme, Erebor Theme, The Arkenstone Theme.... sounds like this could be one really great concert arrangement track that people who only buy the Standard OST will really miss out on! 23 Thrain (Bonus Track / From "The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug" Extended Edition)Definitely the cue from the last score that didn't make the OST for the Gandalf/Thrain chase, hopefully it includes the choral "healing" music too!

Barnald 365 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 That's Thorin's theme in Sons of Durin. I didn't spot House of Durin anywhere, though I'm sure it will be in the full score.Imagine if Sons of Durin also includes the House of Durin with Khuzdul chorus. I'd just about explode.
