Jay 37,373 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Harald Kloser & Thomas Wander - Independence Day: Resurgeance Wow. I... didn't hate this - probably because I was expecting complete and utter shit, and it was not quite that. It wasn't good, though. But still, at least it was symphonic and with the occasional decent melody. The redone versions of Arnold's themes in the final 3 tracks were laughably bad.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 8 hours ago, crocodile said: I'm not sure how the third score fits into that pattern. But Powell said he became less ostinato-driven by the third score and that is why Greengrass ended up not using some of the material, Shame. The third album is on Youtube too (not that it's legal): Karol Yeah and Powell touched upon some of that relationship in the All Access interview my brother did. Greengrass mixes his music so low. On album, you'd think "Tangiers" would be blasting along with the SFX, but in the film you can barely hear it. Powell said he gave up that early drive to fight the system and just accept it and do whatever the director wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 The Living Daylights - John Barry The original 12-track OST is probably my favorite Bond soundtrack. So much fun and just a great listenable album. The pop songs are all great too! I love this melody at 1:12 in "Ice Chase," one of the most fun tracks from any Bond! Dat drum machine!

Incanus 5,716 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 The Five Sacred Trees (Bassoon Concerto) by John Williams: This is perhaps my favourite of Williams' concertos and sports such exquisite orchestrations throughout and you can really hear Williams' affinity for the instrument in the soloist passages. I have hard time picking a favourite movement as all of them contain such brilliant little moments of the composer's genius in combining his orchestral colours and the bassoon's voice. This is also perhaps along with the tuba concerto one of the Maestro's most accessible concert works and a good place to start exploring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

publicist 4,643 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Indeed more weight on the dramatic elements - it's a well-rounded finale for a good trilogy. On first listen: functional retread with few distinguishing features (where's the hip stuff?). The overuse of this style by others isn't a help, either.

Jay 37,373 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Michael Giacchino - John Carter Had to wash the taste of ID4:R out of my mouth with a good sci-fi score and chose this one. I think this is another one that grows on me every year. It kinda didn't break any new ground for him, but did present the best version of a lot of things he had been doing in scores up until then. I really like the themes in the score and the OST is a nice listen. Despite the sessions leaking, I've barely listened to them or been arsed to make my own edit out of them, I like the OST.

Nic Cage Fugue 19 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Revenge of the Sith I think it's my favorite of the Prequel scores. I was never a big fan of Duel of the Fates but I love Battle of the Heroes. DotF always felt like half of a theme to me, and BotH is the superior other half. It's hard for me to love these scores since they're connected to movies I mostly hate but I'll be returning to this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Star Wars/Close Encounters of the Third Kind - Charles Gerhardt conducting the National Philharmonic Orchestra One of the greatest albums...ever. The suite from Star Wars, to which Gerhardt incorporated "Here They Come!" (AKA the concert version of "TIE Fighter Attack"), is so utterly amazing. We're talking definitive. It's a tough act to follow, but Gerhardt does so with such grace and mastery with the finale of Close Encounters. I mean, holy SHIT. If there is a heaven, surely they play that track on a repeating loop. I know there's been some debate on this forum in regard to the merit of Gerhardt's recordings, but those people are fucking morons. Sorry. I've been drinking and you know it's true. We were lucky to have him. Marian Schedenig and Loert 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
