Quintus 5,391 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Clicky Let it play out!I literally only just heard it and I like it. I stumbled upon it by sheer chance. Am I right in thinking it is to MVish for most listeners here? Too bland perhaps?I think it sounds superb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLUMENKOHL 1,064 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 It's fantastic. I actually listened to it on my iPod on the top floors of the Bank of China building once...overlooking the Hong Kong cityscape. It was breathtaking.And nor is it at all MVish. If anything it's "The Lion in Winterish" by John Barryish. Pretty much everything on Furious Angels is close to if not fantastic, except maybe the drinking song. I recommend it to you Quint. You get two disks, one with songs and one with instrumentals of the songs. I would actually vote for Rob Dougan to do the next Bond song, as some of his material gets very close to that territory. But regardless, why do you care what anyone here thinks, Quint, you're smarter than that! Aside from 5 or 6 people round these parts, most people here have critical and analytical senses of Amazon.com and imdb.com reviewers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,251 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 It's nice. it's been used on Top Gear a few times along with another Rob Dougan track a few years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,442 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Do people here honestly believe it sounds like MV music? Or is it just because you stuck that idea into their heads by mentioning it in the body of text that they would read before listening?I think it's quite good. It's actually kind of epic, it has that mid-80s Horner feel to it, which I honestly like. Firefox gave me the file, I'll extract the audio at a later date.

Quintus 5,391 Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 I personally don't think it sounds anything like MV material, but then some here do tend to tar a lot of "other" stuff with the same brush ie; new and not traditional in style.I too used firefox. I simply changed the extension, rather than extract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLUMENKOHL 1,064 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 And as Mark would say, it's not loud, that is for the epic qualities it has, it's not very loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recommend it to you Quint.Sold.But regardless, why do you care what anyone here thinksBecause I'm a delicate soul who yearns for acceptance! Nah, honestly? I couldn't give a s*bleep*t what peeps here think of my musical taste; hence my eternal championing of the Zimmer so far (-his career permitting).I simply found a track I liked and my first thought was to share it with my film score lovin' friends. Then I remembered that not all here are fans of film music; in its purist sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent B 317 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Rob Dougan definitely does some good music but the two I prefer the most are "Furious Angels" and "Chateau". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,095 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Rob Dougan is great. I prefer the instrumental versions, but the lyrics and signing is pretty good. He has a unique voice. "Nothing At All" is amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neimoidian 13 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Nothing particularly great, but out of all synth crap that is out there, this one isn't bad. I remember liking Dougan's cue from the Matrix soundtrack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it just sounds like a lot of stuff I've heard before.It gets better but the beginning with the orchestral hits was not very promising. It might work very well on an old James Bond movie.

Melange 446 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Do you like this music? Very stirring stuff. Oddly enough I can imagine it on some kind of wildlife documentary,such as Blue Planet. You know, a dramatic ariel shot of a killer whale leaping up out of the sea to copius amount of ocean spray. Or mighty flocks of birds migrating across the sea to another continent. Or another ariel shot (notice the theme here) of mountain men crossing a wilderness landscape with herds of wild animals like bison along side. But maybe that's just me. Is this for a computer game? If so, then my god how far things have come from the days of the music for games like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
