Dixon Hill 4,232 Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Listened to all the samples. Had only heard a few until now. Sounds great.Sons of Durin is so ace.Score seems a bit emotionally monolithic though, doesn't it? And the song is beautiful. Damn. Great strings going on there.Let's all stop whining and enjoy what could very well be the last Tolkien film of our lifetimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,284 Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 Listened to the Classic FM tracks again in the car. Damn, the way Sons of Durin starts off with that epic House of During backed by Dwarven chanting was pretty awesome. I guess this explains why Shore said in that interview snippet that he used the "Sons of Durin" theme in the track (prior samples only had Thorin and Erebor themes play).The end of Courage and Wisdom really is a bit of a theme parade eh? There's like 8 major themes in a row giving a quick little run through. Kinda odd.Also listened to the few snippets of OST tracks I separated out of the London premiere stream before I fell asleep the other night. Damn, some really awesome stuff in there, stuff that never came out in any samples. Was nice to hear Nature's Reclamation again, even though Shore managed to martial-ize even that!

KK 3,307 Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Ahh I see! I still say it's a coincidence. Somehow I doubt Shore watches Star Trek.And that kind of motif is very Shore-ish in nature anyway.Loving the motif though, I see it gets some interesting variations. 0:43 has a Zimmer-ish rhythm going on, doesn't it? Kind of like the Bane stuff? I like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan 689 Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Sounds like Guardians of the Three is an alternate on the album! The Rivendell theme is far more militaristic in the film and the material that proceeds it is different too. In the film we just get the descending thirds continuing after the Sauron statement. Sauron's theme seems to be much more prominent on the album too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
