Mark Snow's THE X-FILES scores (Volume 4 coming Tuesday December 1st)

[Taikomochi 1,136]

I love this set!

[fommes 153]

He couldn't handle it.

That's correct, my head exploded when hearing all this awesomeness!

Just to get it out of the way, I'll start off with some criticism first (but I don't want to post this at FSM because they deserve all the applause they can get and it would be misinterpreted over there anyway):

- Considering disc space is so precious with this project, there are a few track choices that really surprise me: a (very minor) few tracks I have no idea why they've selected them (there's even one or two tracks with tracked music; or maybe they let themselves be guided too much by the 'moment' in the series and not by the music; and I'm guessing Mark Snow had a lot of say in this too), coupled together with a few wéird omissions from the selected episodes (from Triangle for instance). I can see, I think, how they bound themselves to not having a season cross discs.

- As someone posted already, I don't know what the deal is with the theme remixes; two of them are just edited-down versions of the Truth & the Light track (I think - unless there's a story behind them?). And they put that on instead of the early mixes of the main title. But I hope they're leaving that for Volume 2.

- A few weird small mistakes that I can't fault LLL with but which I can't believe nobody involved in the project picked that up during proofing: the Season 7 main title is obviously not the Season 7 main title. And Larson for instance writes that the use of the X-Files theme in Jose Chung is one of the rare instances of this: however, this is known as the first use of it, and from then on it got used now and then, really. I mean, I can't be bothered by these small things at all (just the perfectionist in me wants to put it out there I guess), I just wonder how these things were overseen - I'm not an X-Phile myself by any means but this is all pretty elementary I guess.

OK, glad I got that out of the way, because the set really is brilliant. There's so much variety in the music as well - you can really tell Mark Snow and LLL really did their best to have this form a coherent listening experience with a bit of everything sprinkled in. Track selection is also for 90% really great, something which I thought beforehand would be impossible to do considering the amount of music everyone wants included.

A few personal things:

- I'm so happy I've got that short piano motif from Nisei that was on Truth and the Light with dialogue.

- Standout track is obviously the one from Triangle: best build-up track of the set, and an awesome theme.

- There are a few very long tracks in it, and when listening to it, it's like they're only half of the length - that speaks volumes about the music I guess.

- This is another thing I was hoping for: a good deal of tracks feature that awesome piano work from Snow (I mean, where the synth instrument is the piano itself, obviously).

Finally, I can see how people here didn't order it because it sounds too synthy - but I'm not a fan of synth myself, but this is certainly not your casual synth work. Snow really does something with it - it's most of the time not a replacement for an orchestra at all. (But a nostalgic connection obviously helps.) Highly recommended!

Can't believe this hasn't reached low-quantity-alert yet.

So, what do you think of the truth?

Curious to hear your thoughts on it too!

[Turbo 54]

I think MV said they sold around 1800 copies within a week. Not bad. And at least that means it will be around for a bit for others who stumble upon it later.

I will post my thoughts once I finish a few projects related to it.

[fommes 153]

Oh I totally agree - as long as it sells good enough for more volumes.

What are the projects if I may ask? Chronological order etc.? I'm compiling my own editing guide too, but I may wait for it until Vol 2 comes along.

I'm doing chronological order for all available releases, yes. Also, finding some source music and combining that with some cues (not many, just some) as bonus tracks. For example A Gift and A Merry Little Christmas from The Ghosts Who Stole Christmas immediately springs to mind. In short, just creating a more complete album of music from the show.

[Unlucky Bastard 7,782]

I'm listening to Disc 1. Great set so far, but all the disc teeth locks or whatever had all broken off during shipment, so every disc had come loose from broken teeth. Ugh.

[Taikomochi 1,136]

Mine came in fine, no cracked teeth or messed up disc 3. It's really a very well presented set, and I'm glad I bought it. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to get it after Prom cleaned me out!

Also, in the liner notes, it says the piano in "Closure" from "Jose Chung's From Outer Space" is Chung's theme. Is this the same theme from "The Writer" in "Jose Chung's Doomsday Defense" from Millenium? They sound similar but also different...

[Jay 37,249]

The Volume 2 box set has been pushed back to 2013:

Can you remember how the first volume got pushed back and back again.

Maybe its the same problem here. I don't think it's the will of LaLaLand or Mark Snow but the licensing and approval of the artwork and everything around.

Lets hope the best, so that we can hold the 2nd Volume in hands at least at Christmas this year.

And no "Release Thriller" like the first volume from summer - to fall - to spring - to summer - to next summer - to fall - to May 2011

Let me just clear this up -- the first volume did not get pushed back -- Mr Snow let the beans spill a year early on this project and we had to deal with the fan repercussion.

As for Volume 2, it will be arriving first quarter 2013. This Trek Set has taken up a lot of our time and financial resources and projects like X Files Vol 2 had to be pushed back to a later date.

The only remaining "box sets" you can expect from LLL in 2012 are DS9 and TOS.

[Richard Penna 3,664]

I've barely even finished listening to volume one (which they've finally sold out), plus I just discovered the score to the first movie. I'm in no hurry for more.

[Taikomochi 1,136]

The action music in the Season 8 finale when they throw the super soldier in the trash compactor is awesome. It really disappointed me when it wasn't on the first set and that nobody is mentioning it. It's one of the better scoring moments in the show, I think.

I don't go on FSM's website, but somebody should suggest it there.

[fommes 153]

It's in that fans' requests list I made though I think - it's that cue from Essence, right?

See here: http://www.filmscore...mID=1&archive=0

Too bad this got pushed back. Too many of the album producers are Trek fans!

[Wojo 2,453]

Too bad LLR doesn't have a few more employees to work on their soundtrack releases, and maybe charge an extra $10 per set to offset the wages of the extra help.

Oh wait...

[Bryant Burnette 654]

I will definitely buy this when it comes out, but I (for one) am glad it'd being delayed for a while. It's going to take some serious scrambling for me to afford the Trek box set, so I'm happy to not have to worry about buying this set first.

[Jay 37,249]

According to Frank Spotnitz's official website, the release date for this is July 30th

April 20th, 2013 More “X-Files” Music Coming

Just wanted to pass along for fans that La La Land Records will be releasing a Volume 2 of X-Files music, planned for July 30, 2013. Just received an e-mail this morning from them but no further details were provided.

Thanks,

Matt

[Jay 37,249]

MV said on May 31st:

Master was just approved. Now finishing up liner notes and then artwork. Hopefully mid to late August release.

[fommes 153]

This keeps getting postponed. I really hope they put more music from "Triangle" on it this time. I certainly did my share of whining for it!

[Trent B 337]

This keeps getting postponed.

Unfortunately that's the way of life with the labels. MV has no control over things that have to wait to be approved, whether be artwork or whatever.

[Jay 37,249]

Dan Goldwasser announced at the Cordoba Film Music Festival today that the new release date is September 10th.

[Unlucky Bastard 7,782]

I hope this has music from The Pine Bluff Variant from Season 5. That episode had some of the series' most distinctive suspense music.

RETAIL PRICE: $49.98

Just in time to mark the classic tv show's 20th Anniversary, La-La Land Records and 20th Century Fox are honored to announce the second Volume of music from THE X-FILES. There was so much incredible music to cull from the 202 episodes that we HAD to do another box set! Produced by show composer Mark Snow and soundtrack producers Nick Redman and Mike Joffe, this epic 4 cd set features 5 hours of music to give the listener an even greater listening experience than what they found in Volume One! Housed in an attractive hard cardboard shell (like Volume One) this collection includes a 4 disc clamshell case and a 40 page booklet that takes the listener deeper into the musical world of Scully and Mulder. We hope some of your favorites made the cut!

[ZackR 95]

Ordered this one! Freaking love X-Files and Mark Snow's music.

[gkgyver 1,645]

I love the X-Files, but I don't need the music as a stand alone work, let alone that much of it.

[Richard Penna 3,664]

I'd have to preview this more 'thoroughly' before considering buying - I made a 100 minute set from volume 1, so it would need to be at least as good as that.

Tried to watch the show a few years ago, but I found that if the alien or 'thing' of the week wasn't interesting, then the whole episode went down with it. I reached maybe halfway through season 1.

[gkgyver 1,645]

You didn't go beyond season 1?

Because I have to tell you that the show really just begins in earnest in season 2. Towards the end of season 1 there is some very good stuff, but s1 feels sort of rough and clumsy in parts. And I'm saying this as a fan. The second half of season 2, all the way through 5 and also 6 are where the heart of the show lies.

[A. A. Ron 1,736]

I thought seasons 1 and 3-6 were all brilliant! In other news, I managed to snag my first Mark Snow autograph today!!!!

[Koray Savas 2,251]

I should check these out. Sounds like something I would like.

[Jay 37,249]

Holy crap!

The following folks will receive an autographed X Files Vol 2

Order #'s: 71739 - 72102

I was order #72102! Wow!

[Jay 37,249]

Still amazed I got THE final autograph - WOW!

Anyways, I got a shipping notice email this morning at 4:14AM my time (1:14AM California time) - holy cow!

[A. A. Ron 1,736]

Still amazed I got THE final autograph - WOW!

That is pretty cool. My set was scheduled to show up in the mail today, but it didn't.

This was always one of my favorite score moments in the show and I am psyched they are including it on one of these releases

[Unlucky Bastard 7,782]

Finally The Pine Bluff Variant! Could have been an effective thriller score on its own for a movie.

La-La Land Records, 20th Century Fox and 20th Century Fox TV Records present the world premiere release of acclaimed composer Mark Snow’s (THE X-FILES, MILLENNIUM, BLUE BLOODS) original score to the 2016 FOX special limited series presentation of THE X-FILES – THE EVENT SERIES, starring David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, and created by Chris Carter. The X-FILES made an exciting return to television last year, with an event series that marked its first all-new TV episodes in more than a decade. Returning with the show he helped immortalize, composer Mark Snow once again thrills with new music that would ensure the original X-FILES magic was still intact. By turns chilling, dramatic, propulsive and emotional, Snow’s score leads the show’s plot, characters and atmosphere in its unwavering search for the Truth. Produced by Mike Joffe and Mark Snow, and mastered by James Nelson, this special 2-CD presentation, limited to 3000 units, assembles the musical highlights from this six-episode television event! Exclusive, in-depth liners by writer Randall D. Larson take you behind the episodes and their scores -- and series creator Chris Carter contributes a special message. Mark Banning’s sleek art design rounds out this supernaturally sharp release!

Okay, "X-Philes" La-La Land is planning one last 4 cd set of X Files music to release later this year or early next. Our producers wanna know what music is left unreleased that you would like to see on our final farewell set. It can come from episodes we already covered in previous sets as well as episodes we have never released music from.

(Please note we hope to release Season 11 separately this spring so do NOT include any suggestions from those episodes)

The music is out there!

We are gonna try and push some more season 1 stuff, even though Mr Snow does not think it's his strongest material due to the constraints of the technology at the time. Personally I love it!

Also, gonna see if we can license some 3rd party tracks to incorporate into the set for you completest. Fox okayed it, just need to get Mr Snow on board!

[Unlucky Bastard 7,782]

Sorry, "3rd party" tracks?

[mstrox 6,637]

Non Snow tracks. The only one I can think of offhand is a Moby song in one later season episode (maybe the last episode to focus on Samantha Mulder?)

[Jay 37,249]

Red Right Hand too

[Unlucky Bastard 7,782]

Will any scores from The Simpsons be released in an X-Files style series of boxsets?

[mstrox 6,637]

11 hours ago, Jay said:

Red Right Hand too

 

Between several Nick Cave CDs and various soundtracks, I have Red Right Hand in so many places that, selfishly, I hope this is one they don't take up the space by licensing

[Unlucky Bastard 7,782]

I wonder if they'll revisit certain X-Files episodes in future boxsets? Episodes like The Red and the Black are missing crucial cues like when Scully's having recollecting what happened on the bridge when the aliens attacked. It was such eerie and effective scoring, I would love to have heard that on its own.

[Unlucky Bastard 7,782]

By the way, can anyone else confirm whether The Pine Bluff Variant on The X-Files Volume 3, Disc 2, Track 18 at around the 3:54 to 3:55 mark has any crackly distortion? You might have to turn it up to hear it.

 

I just want to know whether I got a bad disc or was there a problem in the mastering stage.

[Unlucky Bastard 7,782]

I seem to have confirmed it myself. That distinct crackling is definitely there on the YouTube version.

What is that last track all about?  I don't remember an a capella version from the show, but then again season 11 was very forgettable overall :p

It's these guys, found it on YouTube. How much money exchanged hands for the publicity? 

 

 

Is whistling a legal acapella technique/instrument when it's the same instrument as the original piece?
