Jay 37,287 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 I still wish they had budgeted for a real choir to do the bit at the end, the synth choir still sounds weird to me after all this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Oh man, the synth choir is one of the things I love *best* about the cue! Really adds to that great 1997 feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Being a tad facetious with the "1997 feel" comment, but I really do love the specific feel given to that motif by the synth choir. Adds a feeling of mystery that wouldn't be the same with a real choir. I've also just always had a weird attraction to synthesized voices in general, they always make my ears go 'oh that's interesting'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,287 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 But the scene that bit was written for isn't a mysterious scene, its footage of the dinosaurs enjoying life on the island. I get why Spielberg replaced it with the old JP theme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of the score purely as a musical experience, disregarding the film context completely, I certainly prefer the score ending this way to the film version of the cue.

Jay 37,287 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 "Dunn and Duffy Circus Train" (aka the second cue inside "Indy's Very First Adventure") I think this might be one of my favorite Williams action cues of all time.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 I have not seen the movie, but this is pretty cool. Original music by Jay Wadley for the 2020 Charlie Kaufman movie I'm Thinking of Ending Things. For some reason there's no official release of this score. This cue is clearly ripped from the movie, you can hear some SFX at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK 3,307 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Great film, and the music is very good too. Although it's pretty much just the ballet music in the film, along with some ambient remixes and a few jingles. Guess there's not much of an album there.

It's really good! Love this ballet dearly. The movie was both supremely emotional and frustrating in equal measure for me (that's Kaufman for you) but this ballet and its place in the story is yearn-central, and it made me melt. I kind of wish they'd do a soundtrack release. There's the Tulsey Town jingle, a main title that's a separate recording of the ballet's first half, and while the rest of the cues are pretty subdued/ambient, they all seem to draw from the ballet.

Jay 37,287 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 I still love that cue! A lot of posters seemed to think action tracks like "A Swarm Reception" and "MotorCycles Of Relief" were better, but I dunno, this one does it for me in a way none of those do. It's cues like this that make me continue to love Giacchino's big blockuster sound. Disco Stu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way JW creates a "sheen" of sound with the high strings is particularly effective (especially at the beginning). And the statement of the Ark theme at 3:27 contains possibly the creepiest bars of music in the entire score... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just absolutely amazing. If I'm honest, I prefer it to Williams' own standalone concert arrangement of the love theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
