The Last Jedi THE LAST JEDI - For Your Consideration (FYC) Album

[leeallen01 2,181]

Holdo's theme is definitely my favourite theme from TLJ. It can be considered a small theme within the giant cosmos of themes in Star Wars, but like Poe's was in TFA, it's my personal favourite of its respective film.

[Jay 41,199]

Well, it's great Rey's Journey is here, but a shame the lightsaber practice cue isn't.

 

The FYC seems to largely avoid all the villain material; no Snoke's Theme at all, skips over all the Kylo Ren material from the beginning of the OST album.

[Pieter Boelen 849]

Big statement of Poe's Theme in "Escape". Brilliant!

[Taikomochi 1,318]

YESSSSSS "The Last Jedi" features that fucking awesome statement of Rey's theme at the start!!!

I wonder if it's because Kylo's theme was s major identity in TFA and this is how it will be eligible for consideration?

[Bilbo 3,934]

Excellent. 

 

 

Looking forward to digging into this tomorrow! 

[Taikomochi 1,318]

Glad "Holdo's Resolve" is different enough from what's in the "Finale" on the OST that both versions are still warranted.

[Jay 41,199]

The album is quite similar to TFA's FYC in that is largely skips over passages that heavily feature old themes, and largely focuses on passages with no themes or new themes.

The TFA FYC was better at getting us the major missing highlights we all wanted though

[Damien F 1,792]

I'm really glad Rey's Journey is on it. It sounds amazing. That awesome version of her theme at the start of The Last Jedi is really cool too. Just a shame the training music is missing. 

[Taikomochi 1,318]

I felt this album needed the 3 pivotal statements of Rey's theme - the lightsaber cue, Rey's Journey, and the start of The Last Jedi.  The latter 2 are on the FYC so I am plenty happy.  Did not expect to get any one of the three.

There has to remain something left to keep wishing for, I suppose.

But with "Escape", "Admiral Holdo", "Rey's Journey" and that start of "The Last Jedi" alone, I'm already not complaining! 

[FC4L 89]

Just dipping my toe in to listen to the first few beats of tracks sharing the same name as the soundtrack it's odd to hear so many initial differences. Curious how a "full complete" soundtrack will work itself out.

 

Also, LOL at so many people in this thread. Film music is serious business!

[Taikomochi 1,318]

Love the statement of Rose's theme at the start of The Spark.

The film version is also definitely different from the OST version. Yoda's Theme did not appear in the end credits I saw theatrically.

Probably better without that theme. As great a theme as it is, I find it very distracting outside the End Title of the movie it is from.

[pete 1,048]

I'm late for work.

The lack of villain material is fine with me!  I find the listening experience significantly better this way.  How exciting that we got this for Christmas!

[Laserschwert 552]

I hope someone will manage to combine the differently edited versions of the cues that appear on both the OST and the FYC into longer (and more complete) tracks.

I hope so too, but it would probably make sense to wait until a lossless version of the FYC is available.

[Taikomochi 1,318]

I think it will be pretty difficult to edit the OST and FYC versions of "Escape" together, considering how much of a mess the FYC version of "Escape" is.  It'll be hard to get that Poe's theme statement out in a way that sounds organic.

[Laserschwert 552]

Yeah, it probably won't work for all tracks. Splitting the main theme and Escape (to use the clean beginning AND have the main theme as a separate track) probably won't work either.

Surely one of the music wizards here can work some magic?

[King Mark 3,779]

Fifuckinally

 

approx how many minutes of unreleased music?

 

is the music where Rey lands in her casket there?

Yes, Rey's Journey. It's really great. No training music though

[Joni Wiljami 1,215]

Don't care these seconds. I want all the brilliant music from the film.

[aviazn 273]

Oh wow, they even cut out that little ROTJ "Into the Trap" fanfare quote at 0:50 in Escape. They definitely did their homework to make it Oscar-eligible.

[Alex 2,915]

Any way of listening to this without a computer? Thanks.

[Chewy 2,637]

We need it in lossless now!

[King Mark 3,779]

yeah, hopefully one of us will buy it on ebay and share it

 

so what other highlight is missing apart from the Rey lightsaber cue?

you can burn the MP3's to Vinyl

[Arpy 4,163]

The FYC pisses me off! So much awesome music that should've been on the OST is inexplicably removed. Who knows how long, if ever, the full scores will be released officially...

[Luke Skywalker 2,065]

Wow can't wait to hear this.:)

[artguy360 1,980]

Nice! Finally. Too bad about the low bitrate. I hope we get a lossless version soon. Can't wait to dig in.

Can someone point out exactly where I can find Admiral Holdo's theme? I haven't been able to place my finger on it

[Justanothercrow421 126]

It's imperfect, but damn was this worth the wait. New tracks like "Admiral Holdo," "Holdo's Resolve," and "The Master CodeBreaker" fill in some nice spots missing from the OST. And the extended cues of "The Battle of Crait," "A New Alliance," "The Last Jedi," "Escape" and "Finale" are great. I can see the film in my head much better with this and for that — until we get a complete score someday in the future — makes me a very happy camper.

There is not theme for Holdo IMO, just more of a general "Resistance in trouble" motif.  

 

It can be heard on the OST at:

01 Escape 6:15-7:08

15 Chrome Dome 0:25-0:35

20 Finale 5:47-6:25

 

It can be heard on the FYC at:

01 Escape 6:12-6:53

14 Holdo's Resolve 1:37-2:12

15 Chrome Dome 0:25-0:32

I’m having trouble downloading the music, the link is blank. Anyone have a Dropbox link?

[Jay 41,199]

I just checked the link, its still working perfectly fine.

[crumbs 15,228]

Yay! Just listened through without spoiling the tracklist and I'm pretty happy! Quite a bit of unreleased music but it's contained within existing tracks, so this will be a very tricky editing job.

 

Also shocked at how much music was tracked into Escape! Was it really like this in cinemas? The opening sounds completely new as well. The amount of editing really surprises me here. I think the best version of Escape will be a combination of FYC and OST tracks. The FYC is unfocused but the OST is missing big highlights.

 

Pleasantly surprised we got the Rey To Supremacy and Rey Searches cues, mildly disappointed we got no training cue (probably atop several poster's most-wanted list). Double shame because it included more of the Luke Island theme, which goes pretty unrepresented on the FYC. Very unexpected that the FYC includes the Long Goodbye & Brazil quotes!

 

Longer Finale just replaces the Holdo and Yoda stuff with a huge chunk of Crait music. Nothing we didn't already have.

 

A bit sad the ending of Chrome Dome is missing again; I recall the really fun Rose's Theme ending from the film.

It's the string thing in the latter bit of "The Master Codebreaker", if I'm not mistaken.
