[What Is The Last Score You Listened To? (older scores)]

 

I had to turn it off in the middle (I think).

I usually don't do that, but organ music for 1 voice is not my thing really..

Didn't we previously hear that it would be out this past March?

Yeah, I won't believe it until I see it.

And I hope he hasn't tealed and degrained the film, like Terminator 2 UHD!

Complete mono score (cds 2 & 3) following with the sheet music.

Ok, I admit I didn't listen to the last 8-9 tracks because I was somewhat bored or tired..

This is a very demanding score, and I think there are too many notes () and too many dissonances.

If we compare it to let's say Ben-Hur, I vastly prefer the latter which is more precise and clearer in its melodies/harmonies.

[What musical element you don't like in film scores?]

Percussion loops.

I cannot stand them.

It reminds me of songs, which have a specific drum loop.

The outcome seems to me very poor, and show the inability of a composer to keep the interest of the listener with other means, like constantly changing music..

[Did you get the Dial of Destiny soundtrack on the CD format before it sold out?]

Mine has shipped on September 20th, but I don't see any progress in the tracking info.

It's been stuck on 9/20.

Yes, yes, "La Porte de Nesle" is a BATMAN ripoff due to temp track love,

I think Elfman sued in which he won?

It looks and sounds really good too on the 4K disc

I wanted to buy it too, but it leans a bit on the yellow side.

[Something Big coming Hint by Mike Matessino]

Well, i don't know if you saw his next post but unfortunately he said it has nothing to do with John Williams. 😞

[Something Big coming Hint by Mike Matessino]

Imagine if he's not talking about a release but something else entirely.

If he is (talking about something else), then I'm holding you @Amer personally responsible for making us excited!

Wait, what if it’s a repressing of The Phantom Menace Ultimate Edition???

Maybe it's Home Alone again...

Thank you for pointing this out.  "Big" is a creation by Amer. Mike did not use that word or anything similar to it in his post.

OMG! Confirmation that it is NOT big! 

I expect a disappointment...

If we combine it with Robin Williams's line:

"To live would be an awfully big adventure."

 

edit: never mind. MM didn't mention Big in his post. Hehe

With a quote like that anything but Star Wars or Indiana Jones will be somewhat disappointing 

With a quote like that, anything non-Williams will be disappointing to me.

Now, does he literally mean tomorrow? Or tomorrow in a metaphorical sense?

I'm wondering the same now that you said it.

Maybe tomorrow means on Black Friday?

[Does anybody ENJOY Star Wars anymore?]

1 hour ago, Edmilson said:

This thread was created almost two decades ago, and the question it poses is still as relevant now as it was then, maybe even more so: does anybody still enjoy SW?

 

I certainly don't.

From the Star Wars universe, I have seen only the 9 films.

I still enjoy the truly original trilogy (I mean not the altered one), and I have stayed away from anything else (either TV series, or re-watching the prequels and sequels).

I don't need anything else than the original trilogy. That is enough for me.

[How do you make a midi mockup?]

I'll often record faster passages at half- or quarter-tempo and then speed them up.

2 years later and I have to do a couple of midi mock ups, that's why I bump this thread again.

How exactly do you do that?

I have Cubase 12. Do you know where I should look at the manual?

One of the best Nordic scores of all time, and a personal favourite.

I have seen the film once, a couple of years ago, but I don't remember the score at all...

[The Quick Question Thread]

Is there a comprehensive list somewhere with middle-eastern musical scales?

I find many pages in the internet, eg. this:

But I'd like to find a list with 10 or more musical scales, if there is one..

What film is that? I find 3 films titled like that at imdb.

I guess you mean the 2003 film with score by Jeff Dana?
