BloodBoal 7,538 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 The added music is more underscore/lyrical material than action material. And it's really, really cool stuff! Definitely worth getting.You can listen to some highlights here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,364 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Star Trek and the Final Frontier Thinking about getting one of the expanded edition of this. What's the lyrical/action music ratio in the new material? Because if it's largely the latter, then I might pass on it.I like Star Trek and the First Contact better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

publicist 4,643 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I found it anonymous at first, began to think I would like it after listening a bit more, and have returned to not being interested. It's doodling.Entirely possible but on first listen i was entertained enough to haul through to the end.To get the winter out of the air i had some mono italiano that seldom fails to put a smile on my face.

Jay 37,364 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 John Powell - PanMeh. Orchestral bomast, but kind of... "empty". This is basically how I feel about, say Lockington's Journey 2 Mysterious Island, or Ottman's Jack The Giant Slayer. oh, and those "reinterpretations" of Smells Like Teen Spirit and Blitzkrieg Bop were awful!Alan Silvestri - The WalkAh, now that's more like it. Now, this isn't as good as Silvestri's old stuff, or anything from the more glorious era of film scores. But compared to the scores of 2015, its a winner. Whether or not it will remain in a top 10 by the end of the year depends on what else comes out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK 3,307 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I'd like to precise that my thumb down was also (and especially) for Lockington's Journey 2: The Mysterious Island. Fantastic score, that one.Meh. It's a guilty pleasure score, but too much going on. Though I believe Lockington's Percy Jackson score is more guilty of what Jay is talking about.

Parts do remind me of Silvestri's Contact.The score works BRILLIANTLY in the film, btw.

crocodile 8,012 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Well, the Horner vibe is felt most prominently in this track (listen to 2:43-3:43 section): Have you noticed noticed Tessaract theme (from Marvel films) at the very start of Full of Doubt?Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,364 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I don't know Silvestri's marvel scores well enough to know what the tesseract theme is.Hmmm, that 2:43-3:43 section reminds me of something, but I dunno if its Horner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
