Yavar Moradi 2,590 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 14 hours ago, Jurassic Shark said: Anyway, I like the suite, but would an expanded release feature much new, great material? Well, the existing CD of The Swarm (pretty sure there is only one) is "complete" from Prometheus, at 73 minutes long. That said, I think as with their Basic Instinct, or the Varese Deluxe Edition of Total Recall (or for a more recent example, Varese Stargate DE vs. new LLL), there were film takes and such left off. So on both of those great Goldsmith scores Quartet was able to offer a more definitive two disc edition. And Jerry's original album arrangement of the score (one of his best, with unique edits and such) has never been officially released on CD. So people speculate that LLL is working on a definitive two disc set, with the first disc the complete score with all film takes, and the second disc containing the original album's CD premiere, plus any alternates. Probably something similar to LLL's two disc release of The Blue Max. Yavar Jurassic Shark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Jay 37,287 Posted December 31, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 31, 2019 I think the thing with film music is, it's an incredibly wide, deserve spectrum of music that has over 100 years and counting of films to pull from. You've got orchestral scores, electronic scores, experimental scores, classic scores, huge scores, small scores, video game scores, tv scores, animation scores, complicated scores, simple scores, all kinds of stuff from all kinds of different eras... and everyone has different tastes. Many people end up wanting scores to all the big movies from their childhood and young adulthood, which for the current forum culture ends up being a lot of late 70s to late 90s scores, but that wasn't always the case. Some people prefer golden age scores, or silver age scores, or 90s scores, or japanese scores, or whatever else, some people have very narrow ranges, some people love to check out almost everything. It has never made sense, to me, to ever be disappointed in any label's output, for any reason. They are licensing what they can, from the studios that will allow them to, from this incredibly diverse 100+ year catalog of music. Every release they put out is important to SOMEONE, every score is potentially someone's favorite score of all time. None of these labels are in this for the profit, they do it for the passion, and for the huge array of fans who each want different particular scores from these studios' catalogs. I think sometimes when a label puts out a score a vocal portion of a message board really want, or perhaps a few scores that get a lot of attention in a short time, people come to continue to expect more releases that will hit their specific pleasure centers, but it's really unrealistic to ever expect that; With so much ground to cover from such a diverse media, it's only coincidence if one label releases a large portion of your particular score deserves in a certain time frame. Basically, there's no reason to get yourself hyped and hyped when any label says anything is coming on any certain date, with so many releases coming out every month from so many labels, the likelihood of your particular short checklist of being met is always small. Better to be ambivalent about what's coming then be pleasantly surprised when it's something you really want, than to expect something particular because you feel its deserved then be crushed again and again when it doesn't come out. Everything will come out eventually! In the meantime, always check out samples to scores you've never heard before to see if there's something new-to-you that you might really enjoy!
