Label Threads The Official Varese Sarabande Thread
Richard Penna replied to Charlie Brigden's topic in General Discussion
I'd expect any DE to be chronological. Tyler and co. can shove their 'listening experience'. Are we sure it's Requiem though? It feels a bit unlikely to me if there would be so little unreleased material. Kloser's score surely has more missing. -
I never understood that one either. Is that something to do with Riggs being completely off his nut and a danger to others?

Label Threads The Official Varese Sarabande Thread
Richard Penna replied to Charlie Brigden's topic in General Discussion
The initial pressing had some major distortion in at least one (probably several) track and they had to do a repressing and send out a replacement copy to all initial purchasers. I have two copies as a result. It attracted a fair amount of comments about the labels listening to a sample before they send them out. Regarding Aliens, I'd rather they focused on getting some titles out that have never been expanded, instead of one that's available on streaming. -
Will John Williams score Steven Spielberg's new UFO movie?

Will John Williams score Steven Spielberg's new UFO movie?
Richard Penna replied to Jay's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
If he's able, I think he will. But if he was only able to complete (sort of) a score for DoD due to an extended PP period and help from Ross, it does seem like it comes down to health and general ability to do it. Maybe SS would turn to Tom Newman again. -

The credits suite is indeed really good. But assuming it's WLB and it ends up as a nice single $20 CD, I'll very likely get it even if it's just to curate a nice alternative playlist. I'm less interested in whatever the other one is. I do have both Starship and AvP but I'm not sure enough to buy an inevitable 2-CD set. -

Nor me - I actually had to check my flac archive to check whether I'd bought this at some point in the past, and I don't have it. I have two tracks that I must've obtained at some point. I put on the OST on Spotify earlier and it was a kind of enjoyable half hour with a few proper highlights, so particularly as I never bought it, I reckon I'd be up for this. -

That's not a Varese title (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varèse_Sarabande_albums_discography) -

I'd be open to that if it's got some interesting unreleased material. I'm giving the OST a refresher and it now comes across to me as a more melodic variation on the sorts of Horror stuff I like from Bishara. Rebuying Starship would be a slightly tougher sell as I'm not familiar with the film nor what's missing, but still open to it. -

Album 1: Album 2: https://www.facebook.com/varesesarabanderecords/posts/pfbid02ScpKeXgngEtS8XUCV3ASfvW3coS7YQTTXCWXHmWhQnjzMLMVKXQuGJgCKBQPvb2Bl What Lies Beneath suggested already on FB. Second... alien, monster, blood, planet... gun. Could it possibly be Starship? Feels like yesterday that I bought the first one with the huge mastering error. -
Your favorite re-arrangement of Devil's Dance?
Richard Penna replied to Jay's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
I always like the simpler arrangment for this - the original definitely the best. I don't particularly go for the Shaham arrangement but actively don't like Mutter's. No doubt others will see her playing in a better light than me, but I feel her style is completely at odds with Williams' careful, usually structured style. Far too much meandering around with bits that aren't relevant to the core idea. She's no doubt a very skilled player but it always seems to me that she's just showcasing her speed and versatility instead of tailoring her playing towards what JW's pieces need and, where appropriate, what a film needs. Tibet/SL were case studies in a soloist being a perfect match in terms of their playing style and Williams's score. I can't say the same about ASM. -

They also need to use Newborn's theme for the opening and closing.
