Naïve Old Fart 9,552 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 "The Book Thief". This is getting to be a really good score. I plan to listen to it at least once-per-day, before I watch the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marian Schedenig 8,207 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Peter McConnell's great score to the first part of Double Fine's wonderful kickstarted adventure game. With Alien allusions in one cue, too. OOoooh, I'm intrigued! The new public launch trailer features not just bits and pieces of the score, but brief shots of both McConnell and the orchestra during the recording sessions as well.

Dixon Hill 4,234 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 A.I. Artificial Intelligence - John Williams (my personal edit of the score, thanks to the help of both Incanus and Faleel)This is John's masterpiece. Nowhere else (in my own experience) does he reach the level of spirituality that this score is radiant with. Kubrick would certainly have been pleased with it; no last-minute replacements would have happened with this one, heh. It's a journey through a bleak and cold future, with an undercurrent of the most sincere humanity which is allowed to come through in all its warmth by the journey's end. The result is one of the finest efforts of a human being to capture and meditate on the strange marriage of light and darkness that defines our existence. I sat and listened to this straight through with my family. I don't want to listen to it any other way from now on. Incanus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,018 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 No, not at all. It was Basil from start to finish. There is a certain sound to it that eludes most writers. Doyle's choir is much closer to what it actually sounds like.Although, "Russian choir" term is quite misleading. It's more about "orthodox Church" sound, really.It might sounds like a bit of nitpicking, but most choirs like this in films don't quite catch the spirit.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,018 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 OldboyLethal Weapon 2The Desolation of SmaugSkyfallThe Good GermanKarolGood stuff Karol. Good stuff. Now listening to King Kong, in memory of John Barry who passed away 3 years ago yesterday. It's the favourite work of his I've got. There's something about this incarnation of Kong that makes it unique - quite typical for Barry in many ways, but, on the other hand quite innovating for the genre itself. It's not your typical monster music, but still somehow manages to convey that foggy and mysterious atmosphere. And the percussion/choir tracks are fun as well.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
