  1. My order from an Amazon reseller failed, and they are refunding me :-/ I need to hunt for a new one.
  2. For who is interested in my thoughts. Here is my review of the score. https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/07/spider-man-far-from-home-michael-giacchino/
  3. For who is interested in my thoughts, here is my review of the score. https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/07/x-men-dark-phoenix-hans-zimmer/
  4. Fallout is a score, that is like a cockroach and refuses to die.
  5. More than the Dark Phoenix score that I am reviewing at the moment. (Did I say that out load?)
  6. I couple of notes on a piano is not enough to carry a complete score for me, I am afraid ;-)
  7. For who is interested, I have written a report about the concert in Dublin celebrating his whole career. (I did not attend the LOST one) https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/06/michael-giacchino-dublin/
  8. About Fallout. I did not wanted to review the score, because I did not like it as a stand alone album. I prefer to spend time on scores that I do like. But I also heard the "it works in the movie" argument, so I decided after seeing the movie to review it: https://soundtrackworld.com/2018/08/mission-impossible-fallout-lorne-balfe/ He responded to me on twitter that he likes crazy bongos. So I asked for an interview, which I almost got :-) My invitation for that interview still stands! There is so much to discuss about that score.
  9. There are not many reviewers in the Netherlands, I am good :-) I also think my opinion about the score counts, not just a random number or a star.
  10. As a reviewer, I have not rated a single score. First of all, my rating would be personal: my 1 star would be someone else's 5 star and the other way around. A soundtrack like Dunkirk would be horrible for me to rate. I think that the music works in the movie, but the score by itself is just not a pleasant listening experience for me. I just prefer that the readers just read what I have to say about the score, and make up their one mind, if the score is interesting or not.
  11. Apparently I am a minority here. I think the score showcases a good example of writing brilliant music for a film. You can read my thoughts here: https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/06/godzilla-king-of-the-monsters-bear-mccreary/ I ordered my CD using an amazon reseller. It should be a regular CD **knock on wood**
  12. I just finished my report of the Film Music Festival in Krakow, Poland, where he was one of the main guests. He conducted his own concert on Saturday, and on Sunday he supported the Traffic Quintet (founded by his wife) for a more intimate concert. He was also willing to sign items after his meet and greet. It was amazing to have him there. My report can be found here: https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/06/krakow-film-music-festival-2019/
  13. I attended a Goblet of Fire Live to Projection concert in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. It was a weird feeling to listen to Doyle's music instead of John Williams. It was a different, but still an amazing experience. You can read it in my report below: https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/05/harry-potter4-rotterdam/
  14. For who is interested in my thoughts. I have reviewed AVENGERS: ENDGAME. https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/05/avengers-endgame-alan-silvestri/ I also mentioned the Captain America theme :-) In different tracks though!
  15. Hisaishi did 3 concerts in Prague last week with music from the Ghibli movies! I attended and wrote a report about it for who is curious: https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/05/joe-hisaishi-prague-2019/
  16. For who is interested in my thoughts. I have reviewed DUMBO. https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/04/dumbo-danny-elfman/
  17. For who is interested in my thoughts. Here is my review of the score. https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/03/captain-marvel-pinar-toprak/
  18. I interviewed Austin Wintory and Angela Bermudez during the film music festival in Krakow, for who is interested. 🙂 https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/03/interview-austin-wintory-angela-bermudez/
  19. Yes, and the answer should ALWAYS be yes for every live to screen movie. The end credits are where the orchestra can shine. For the Matrix live to projection they even use Don Davis' end credits music instead of the song. Not finishing the end credit is a disgrace. I wanted to add "In my humble opinion" to that last sentence, but I am not going to. It IS a disgrace
  20. An interesting point of view. I have never thought about it like that before 🙂
  21. It is Powell, so it is now on route from the webshop to my house 🙂
  22. I would go for the end credits track of that CD. The 1-minute awesomeness is extended with a couple of minutes in that track. It is also the first track of the Symphonic Suite CD. I am blessed with both CDs (and a connection in Japan) This album is my all time favorite. In the meantime, I have finished my report of the concert last month in Paris. Last concerts I have attended of Hisaishi he always has the cello and double bass players on the far right side of him. For who likes to read it: https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/03/joe-hisaishi-paris-2019/
  23. For who is interested in my thoughts, here is my review https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/02/how-to-train-your-dragon-the-hidden-world-john-powell/ I really love all the details in this thread about the use of themes during specific scenes. I tried to keep my review spoiler-free though.
  24. He is, I had a good conversation with him last year. He looked and responded so much better, than a couple of years before.
  25. For who is interested in my thoughts. I have reviewed BUMBLEBEE. https://soundtrackworld.com/2019/01/bumblebee-dario-marianelli/
