  1. I'm intrigued by this but Marty has been a whiny old fart lately.
  2. I share your assessment Sharky. The carol you posted is a good example, I've heard cats doing what's at the core of that for longer than Collier has been alive and they didn't overdress it like he has a tendency to. Maybe I'm a stick in the mud.
  3. Was this thread title written by a, like, high school girl?
  4. I've been recommending these for years on here Alex but gave up because the KM's of the world only want headphones that cost four figures.
  5. I reckon we're overdue for another JWFan Grand Nolan Assessment as well.
  6. Youngins have some fancy stuff nowadays. Some of what I hear from students is as impressive as this and it tempts me back into it but then I remember my DX7 does a killer marimba and pan flute combo and I'm happy with that.
  7. It is at least a well done imitation if not real. It has his inflections in there.
  8. Aye we're looking at it very differently then. On a brief timeline it may be fair to say that's true - though consider how many would disagree about the orchestra always sounding timeless, citing even recent Williams scores as being too classical or old fashioned, whatever you see in YouTube comments - but in the longer term I think style gets shaken off and what's actually underneath determines if it's still living in people's minds as vibrant and meaningful. Oxygène may not sound cutting edge anymore but I would hardly reduce it to mere kitsch as a consequence.
  9. That's classic JWFan bullshit though. The currency of John's compositional mannerisms is as subject to an expiration date as that of Hans' or any other composer and both have works that have now passed the date. Music being timeless has nothing to do with its sound but its ability to communicate with the listener and in that regard I think both of them can feel secure about their ongoing legacy.
  10. That Reddit must have some policy against new posters or something because my response to that idiocy from this morning is still only visible to me when logged into the account I specifically made to post it. Guess they're fine with that kind of amateurish dilettante crap but god forbid they don't filter out posts from new accounts. Anyway it looks like a few of you cleaned up nicely there anyway. Also Blake Robinson is a stand up guy but trailer music is what it is.
  11. Early morning downtime today so I made an account and responded but it hasn't shown up. Anyone else hate Star Wars nuts?
  12. I doubt this instance has anything to do with snobbery, it's just idiots who want to appear authoritative about something they know nothing about. I reckon that happens alot on the internet, with many different things. Did you correct this moron, Stu?
  13. That's one of the first ones I remember clearly as well along with Ghostbusters and BTTF.
