mstrox 6,268 Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Interesting. I’m glad the Lost World expansion is back in print for people who missed it. Since I have the box, I’ll play it by ear and buy it if anything new and interesting is on there. Also, kudos to whoever guessed a TLW expansion upthread.

Karol Both reissues strike me as just an easy way to maintain availability and also raise capital for some costly future projects, rather than finding some revelatory new source. 3 minutes ago, Ollie said: I’m sure if JP3 could have been released by now, it would have. There could be issues holding it up we’re unaware of. I'm sure it's not LLL thinking 'JP3? nah, we did the Williams ones'. But it's also hard to imagine what problems there would be... just a standard AFM score with some choir pre-2005, and same studio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Evanus 202 Posted August 1 Popular Post Share Posted August 1 Mike said they initially considered putting JP3 in the box set, right? Surely it's in the works, especially now that they've done the first two again... Still excited for TLW though. Hope they have more film versions in there, at least for Ripples. And some isolated percussion stuff would be neat. JTW, Yavar Moradi and Brando 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes that just means that I need people to point me to the highlights. JP for me is like the Star Wars prequels and sequels - I really got into Phantom Menace and kinda The Force Awakens.

Andy 3,596 Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 I liked the OST well enough, but the expansion really did its job in opening it up. If you're looking for highlights, there are cue experts here that can do a better job than I. But believe it or not, it's the jungle drum mood pieces that really got me excited. Things like Fire at Camp / Corporate Headquarters, Spilling Petrol and Horning In, On the Glass, Reading the Map... It's the percussion and orchestral fusion. You get a taste on the OST, but it is the heartbeat of this entire score. I think it's absolutely essential. Yavar Moradi and Brando 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,239 Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Yeah, I wouldn't count JP/TLW amongst 'new' stuff at all in terms of new, premiere expansions. TLW will go into my cart eventually. (thanks, shipping costs) I actually have the FSM Trek 2, but I bought that at a time when I gave into peer pressure a bit in terms of 'this is an important score', and not whether it was actually something I wanted. You know, TND I could almost, almost consider purchasing as a sister release to TWINE. I just felt it needed too much playlisting to not be a completely overwhelming listen.
