thestat 348 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Kamen's Escape to Sherwood. Such a brilliant piece of music and probably clear of the usual ghostwriter etc problems (even though interesting to note how the action theme resembles sections of Mancini's Lifeforce score, specifically the Web of Destiny stuff with the London underground mayhem material, with the string figures): Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thestat 348 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 A truly underappreciated score from Armstrong - who really needs to get another blockbuster but without the balfeification of his writing process: This track is more early 90s Doyle than Doyle has been since 1997: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 "Heartburn Waltz," the theme that Guaraldi wrote for the 1975 Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown is so unnecessarily twisty and weird harmonically for a children's program, I love it.

bollemanneke 3,342 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Is's happening again. I'm listening to A Change of Season from HP1 (film version) and the Rescue of Sirius from HP3, but I'm paying attention to the instruments now rather than just liking the cues. I LOVE THIS MUSIC SO MUCH. Right before Hermione usually screams, what the violins do is just... I don't understand why it takes me years to be able to properly dissect these notes. I have these revelataroy moments on random occasions when I suddenly listen to details instead of the package. Jay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,006 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 I am listening to the new Thor score. Some of it is disposable but I like the majority of Giacchino's material, especially this theme associated with Gorr the God Butcher. Quite an unusual approach to scoring a Marvel villain. Oddly, it reminds me of the creepy source music during the sex scene in Midsommar. Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The melodic stuff in the beginning of this track this reflects his greatest theme - Desmond and Penny from Lost. Amazing scoring. I often get frustrated with his action music which to me is very grating and NERVOUS, instead of being dynamic or propelling. Here, none of that is present at all, and the score from 3:17 is a brilliant example of how his style can work when presented and orchestrated properly. It still has that annoying undercurrent, but the brass and choral fanfares cover over that much more efficiently than they do in his lazy new stuff. And the mix here is great - in Werewolf or Spiderman or whatever, the choir gets subsumed into the general blur of sound which is a consistent problem with Gia recordings. The Wachowskis clearly know their score composers as both Davis and Gia have done great work for them. So sad to see the nonsense that ended up in Matrix Revolutions. Having had to go through Balfe's massively banal theme for the Justice Society (never again), I just have to ask why this could not have been that theme: Edmilson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 I went to the Halloween Concert by the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra. They played many pieces. There was a definite high point and low point. The low point was the abysmal noise also known as music from Game of Thrones. It had one thing going for it, it was loud. The highlight of the performance was the Avatar Suite. Its been 7 years since Horner died and it still stings but his music soared. I was impressed with the choir as well.

Knight of Ren 789 Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Seriously, At World's End is one of my favorite Zimmer scores ever. It has his style everywhere, but he manages to develop all his (fantastic) themes in new and interesting ways and present them in a completely orchestral package that is pure fun from beginning to end! Such a great score and definitely my favorite from the Pirates saga! That cue is great, and I really hope there's some kind of expanded release sometime, because there are some lovely cues not on the OST (like Jack & Beckett or the Maelstrom cues) Loert and Edmilson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
