robthehand 3 Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Yeah it's not too bad. The one cue I wanted lacks the punch I heard at the Houston concert this past weekend. But overall it seems ok.I'm guessing that was "The Creation"? I have that on a Silva compilation somwhere, and it's OK, but not as good as Gerhardt's version (on his Waxman album). It's a shame that both tracks leave off the actual cue for when the bride is revealed (the one with the wedding bells - I'm assuming that's on the Silva album elsewhere?).

QMM 4 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Ocean's 13 - David Holmes You bought this on faith? I'm curious as to this one.Yeah, I've liked both of his scores (bought the second on faith too) that I didn't think I'd really get burned on it although it's pretty apparent that they're trying to recreate the magic of the first film (which is what I've been reading that they're failing at with the film) with the score but I enjoyed it. There's a handful of really nice tracks but I wish the album was longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Crichton 4 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 I believe FFVIII was the first Fantasy score to feature actual orchestral recordings.You are correct, the amazing opening piece Liberi Fatali (a choral piece equal to One Winged Angel) and the finale and End Credits. Unfortunately it was also the first FF score to centrally feature a pop-style song. Fortunately the live orchestral component would be expanded to 30 something cues in FFIX.

Btw what do you think of the first two albums? They seem a bit harder to get into for me, and lack a bit of the polish shown in Absolution and Black HolesBurga - who absolutely loves the Morricone influenced Knights of Cydonia (which has a wicked cool Leone-ish video to boot!)

Marian Schedenig 8,191 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 So far, the two I'm listening to most are Origin of Symmetry and Black Holes.... What I like about Muse is that they not only have that strong Glass-type minimalism influence, but at times they actually sound like Hülsbeck (my favourite game composer from the C64 era) with vocals. That's why songs like Bliss and Map of the Problematique are favourites of mine. Knights is great as well, of course, not only for the Morricone trumpets but also for the Queen-type overdub choir. I'd kinda like to hear a Bond song by them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 1,059 Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Mine was fullfilled on the 12th. I usually get the order by the following Saturday or Monday.It could be because they are behind or maybe the postal service mis-routed it. I'm not going to get all bent out of shape like those at FSM. If it's not here in another week I'll call or e-mail Intrada and ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
