I'm also listening to the Season 1 score for the first time in awhile. Man, once Tilton kicks in on the album, things just go to an entirely new level of awesome. It's such a drastic change in quality from Seiter and the couple Giacchino cues. I don't know what Blume was smoking when he said Tilton was just aping Giacchino in the first two seasons.

From Chris Tilton's Twitter feed:

We're editing a soundtrack for Fringe S5. Just waiting to hear back from the powers that be that we can go ahead with it. Nothing yet, tho.

Original Television Soundtrack

FRINGE

Season 5

Music Composed by

Chris Tilton

FRINGE — the supernatural sci-fi crime drama from J.J. Abrams — is back for its fifth and final spellbinding season. The year is 2036. The Observers have become ruthless rulers, limiting free will and speech, and are slowly poisoning Earth’s atmosphere so that only their own kind can survive. All is not lost, however. A series of videotapes, preserved in amber, hold detailed plans for overthrowing the Observers and restoring the planet and its people. The Fringe team will undertake the most important mission of all time: retrieve the tapes, follow their clues, decipher the code, and prepare for the battle to save humanity. Join Fringe scientist Walter Bishop, FBI agent Olivia Dunham, Peter Bishop, and Olivia and Peter’s now-grown daughter, Henrietta, for 13 episodes filled with struggles, surprises and sacrifices in this explosive and emotional final season.

Composer Chris Tilton hangs on to the FRINGE musical reins for the series’ epic finale and delivers some of his finest and most dramatic scoring yet.

Warner Home Video will release Season 5 of FRINGE on May 7.

Varese Sarabande Catalog # 302 067 196 2

This is great! I'm actually listening to his Fringe scores right at this very moment! Now I'll have to impatiently wait for May 7...

If you are comparing them to the niche film score labels than its apples and oranges, the other labels don't take pre order money until the titles are ready or just about ready to ship. The stuff that delays Varese releases (artwork approval) delays releases on those other labels all the time too, we just generally aren't even aware of the titles existing until those issues are squared away.

Anyway, this is no surprise, as all of the Fringe OSTs have been pushed back. Now it's 5/5!

BTW, I totally nailed this exact new release date for Fringe earlier today:

Artwork approval. Everyone's too busy to approve it.

Same thing is happening with LLL's Wyatt Earp.

You wouldn't think so, but that's what's happening!

Why the actors/directors have this power over soundtracks releases to begin with is the real issue.

I guess we should just consider ourselves fortunate that we're getting a soundtrack at all, even if it is delayed. For a while it almost seemed like a release wasn't going to happen. That's at least what I gathered from Tilton's Twitter feed.

It's not Varese - everything's done on their end. WB hasn't approved the artwork yet.

Now whether or not Varese should accept people's pre order money before a release is approved in another topic.

There's no way to tell from the track titles what episodes they are from

It would seem as though from *at least* "Olivia’s Crossover To Bear" (I would think

) through the end represents the final two episodes.

"Father and Father You Go" might be included, as well (my guess is that it's

), but assuming the track list is chronological (which it usually is), I can't think of what "Terror Incognito" might be.

If "Donald in the Game" is what I think it might be (the time matches up with

, but beware of spoilers in the video title), that would be from 5x10. I would therefore assume that anything after "Donald in the Game" is after 5x10 and that everything else is before 5x10.

This is all a guess, of course, but it would seem that a lot is from the finale. There were some great cues during the final episodes, though. I hope they were able to include them!

Chris Tilton posted a track list on Twitter that includes episode numbers. From the looks of it, every episode has at least one track on the album.

Interesting, though: The first track here is listed as "Walking Through the Valley," and it's 4:00 long. On Varese's site, the first track is "Searching for Olivia Dunham," and it's only 3:20 long. I wonder which track we'll get...

Cool!

Searching For Olivia Dunham likely IS Walking Through The Valley, with silences shortened / microedits.

I asked him via Twitter and he confirmed he made some tweaks and changed the title. My phone is being difficult and I can't paste the link for some reason, but you can read on his twitter feed.

Any time I see a composer post a picture of their iTunes library, I think about all the other goodies it probably contains. :)

What do you mean? The release is obviously the revised versions, as he just told us and as the track list indicates!

I'd rather have full sessions of LOST or Alcatraz but yes, they would :)

The back of the CD has Track 1 as "Searching for Olivia Dunham" at 3:20 instead of "Walking Through the Valley" at 4:00 (and it has the end credits as 1:10, not 0:40), so my question was, what are they giving us--what's on Varese's site or what's on Chris's track list? Would they revise the art between now and the release?

I would just like any form of release for ALCATRAZ. I'm personally pretty happy with LOST as it is, but seeing as we have nothing of ALCATRAZ...

Exactly. The score to Alcatraz was among the very best scoring of 2012!

But...but...256kbps AAC is better than 256kbps MP3. So can't do Amazon.

Google Play is 320kbps...but but it's not as convenient.

C'mon iTunes.

No bueno.

Google Play doesn't let me download to my iPhone on the fly. Amazon has a decent app that lets you download the files to your phone and play them, and iTunes is integrated obviously.

Well this album was a waste of $10.

ZzzzzZZZZzzzzZZZZZ.

I think season 3 and 4 were the best musically.

I do enjoy seasons 3 and 4 a lot, but this one has grown on me after a few listens. I remember some cool action cues during the season that I'm sad didn't make it onto the album, but I'm happy with what they *did* include.

I personally wouldn't call it a waste, but that's just me...
