Agreed! It's a new, exhilarating experience. Unforgettable.
I have heard a live orchestra play parts of this score and this is more immersive. I didn't even think that was possible.

I loved POA. There wasn't anything wrong with it in my listening experience. It feels like hearing it from within the orchestra itself, as though you're in an ocean of sound.

Hey @Jay, when are we getting that POA spreadsheet?

If nobody had mentioned the issue with the cut-off frequencies, I certainly wouldn't have noticed anything. I don't think it's something you'd normally be able to pick up anyway, at least not just by listening to it. I'm actually perfectly happy and satisfied with this set, while still going through all 8 hours of music, in speechless awe of John Williams's unmatched talent and productivity....
Don't forget William Ross.

And in the case of George Lucas, it's the other way around!
He's one of those rare "exceptions to the rule" you see sometimes.

Just now, Jay said:It kind of amps up the tension but the percussion version is just a way better idea.
Bad ideas are essential to make good ones.

I'm surprised that overlay has caused so much discussion - I never noticed anything weird about it.
What exactly do people think if off about it?Just that it's kind of out of place. Don't get me wrong, I love it, but it's a tad strange.

How many times do I have to post that all the Williams score heard in the film is on the CD?
Many, apparently. My bad.

This makes complete sense. I know the score is filled with unconventional scoring decisions (that work brilliantly!) but pizzicato strings underscoring an intense werewolf chase through a forest does stick out as a little... "bold." 😎
Even choosing a string overlay to beef it up seems a restrained addition, so he must have really liked his original idea (he saw fit to include it on the OST after all).
Haven't gotten to that track, is the Grievous-esque percussion there?

Have you reached out to LLL?

I talk about the frequencies cutoff.
If it's not noticeable does it matter?

I'm serious, LLL have to send us replacement CDs, for CD 6 & 7.
That's a huge mistake.
The "Window to the Past" overlay or something different? I'm not exactly great at comprehension today so you'll have to remind me.

Aren't you guys taking this anti-OST propaganda a bit too far? You're just bashing the man himself for his intended album presentation.

I know but this usually is nuisance work. The boot sounded great to begin with, so why bother. I already have planned for some off day during christmas break to edit and splice all this stuff in Audition, as there is a lot of heavy editing necessary to make this *musically* listenable. I know MM did his best but this awful completeness craze now means having to edit tons of cues that connect good material with filler stuff. And it is a lot of material. Though with balletic material like this it's usually fun to create your own edits.
Personally I enjoy editing music like that, though I use Logic Pro for it.

Sadly they joined the cues so i have to keep the old 'Chasing the Snitch' cue from the bootleg which is the only one i want.
You can just keep the intro/outro from the bootleg and edit this version into that perhaps?

Thanks!

I still think large parts of it are a copy and paste job, particularly the Quidditch, Second Year. However, generally the recycled cues do fit in well, and the original material absolutely rocks. The flying car, aragog and basilisk duel cues have always felt like minor classic JW set pieces.
And JW has saved me having to listen to AotC to hear that amazing Chase Through Coruscant music!
PoA is the real revelation for me. I'd largely written off the Buckbeak rescue and time travel cues. Something has changed since receiving the box - it might simply be the removal of JW's idiotic album arranging and the restoration of some key sequences that makes the whole thing more interesting.
For me, CoS expands a pretty good OST into a fully rounded score, while PS and PoA really transform their scores by fixing ver dodgy albums.
This was probably answered before, but which track sounds like Chase Through Coruscant?

I don’t how I’m going to explain to my family that I’ll be spending Christmas with this CD set and not them.
It's quite simple. "Mom, Dad, I'll be spending christmas with this CD set and not you."

I might not be able to wait until Christmas. It's arriving today and I'm just so hyped.

Are the other spreadsheets up? I didn't see them.

Well I wouldn't say that. I'd consider my experience seeing ESB live more immersive than any time I've watched the movie or listened to the score.
