Neimoidian 14 Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Copernicus' Star by Abel Korzeniowski.Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. Probably the best soundtrack I've heard in a long time (in 5 years for sure). Seriously, you don't hear such scores in Hollywood motion pictures anymore. If you like (JW's) Harry Potter-kind of symphonic fantasy scores, this is something for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The soundtrack offers much more goodies than the samples on composer's website (interestingly, some of them are combined into one longer track and some are expanded). The music is also much less minimalistic than his regular output. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marian Schedenig 8,211 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I've been playing bits and pieces of it on my new headphones. Turns out it's one of the best film score recordings I can find.

The bass is incredibly clean. Botnick is a genius.I'm so glad that "Star Trek: V" is, at last, getting the love it deserves. I bought this back in June 1989, when I was living in the USA, and going through what I can only describe as "the worst time of my life". This score offered me succor, and lifted me up, when I needed it, and, for that, it will always have a special place in both my music collection, and my life. I miss Jerry Goldsmith like a sonofabitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,020 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Yeah, the previous album, while enjoyable, turned out to be simply an appetiser. This one is terrific. My mom liked it.Alice In Wonderland by Danny ElfmanThere is some really good material on the album, but, no matter what I do, I can't remember much besides the main theme statements.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,020 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Mars Needs Moms by John PowellThere is nothing strikingly memorable about it (at least not instantly), but I like it. Good to hear Powell writing more sustained and developed music. No mickey-mousing, which is surprising. Must be an aftershock after HTTYD. And yeah, he can mix orchestra and electronics like no other. Enjoyable.Gribble Loss is quite an usual cue for this kind of film. In a sense it's much more dramatic and not sappy at that.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 3,695 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 MNM was more than unmemorable - most cues just did nothing for me. I was waiting for some emotion to come, but it just didn't with the exception of Gribble's Loss. The only cues I found interesting were those featuring the main theme - I think Powell's really good at extended, well orchestrated thematic renditions.I agree though, he's one of the best at mixing orchestra and synths.

Andy 4,142 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Capricorn OneI've listened to this score maybe 5 times before today. For some reason, it didn't work as well for me. Don't know why. But it kinda felt like just about everything of value had been covered in the Main Title. Not trying to slam it, but it was one of those times when I felt it needed one setpiece segment to stand out from the rest of the score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 1,059 Posted March 14, 2011 Author Share Posted March 14, 2011 For some reason I can't get into the film version. But the original album is a pure awesomeness.KarolThey both have their pluses, the original album is probably easier on the senses to the casual listener and presents a more symphonic version of the main theme. The original album is harsh and gives one a better feeling of the tension that is present in the film, plus it has the helicopter music.Those Magnificent Men And Their Flying Machine - Ron Goodwin.Another personal holy grail, outstanding sound for a film score recorded in the 60's. A lot of fun stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin 22 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Over the last few days:-Prince of Persia - Harry Gregson WilliamsThe first 30 minutes are promising enough, but then after that the score becomes unfocused. -The Last Airbender - James Newton HowardContrary to popular opinion, the lack of thematic memorability in this score is what kills it for me.-A View to A Kill - John BarryOne of his best James Bond scores, with electric guitar rips.-Love Actually - Craig Armstrong (Promo)Lovely romantic comedy score with less than 30 minutes of material but has a 6 minute orchestral blitz cue.

crocodile 8,020 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows - Part II by Alexandre DesplatWell, I had a dream that I was listening to it. It was rather disappointing and there weren't any strong themes to speak of. Hedwig's theme appeared only in one track. What bothered me was the prominent use of electronics (John Powell style).But it was still better than that ROTJ release I purchased in one of my dreams, which had an entire CD dedicated to the unused country source music.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
