Popular Post Jay 37,364 Posted March 3, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 3, 2023 Wowwee zowwee! I had a very busy day and was unable to check this out until a little bit ago. Kevin Kaska's score to Episode 1 alone was an utterly fantastic album in its own right, one of the most pleasing film music related things I've listened to in a while. What inspiration this show created for its talented composers to work with and deliver these goods to us! Wow.

pete 907 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I had confused Kevin Kaska with Kevin Kiner. Surprised to realize two of Kevin Kaska's concert works were included on the CD that featured the first recording of Williams trumpet concerto. I bought the CD when it was released and it's back home in Australia - I only ripped the Williams concerto, and I don't think I ever listened to Kaska's own pieces on that CD. Definitely curious to explore his music further. Dr. Know 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy 4,129 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Finished listening while painting the house. I enjoyed Kaska’s stuff the most and probably Debney’s the least. The 20 minute Breaking In is itself a feat that all involved should be proud of. The fact that this type of music is being recorded for a TV show is remarkable. It really is a joy to listen to. That said, there is room for growth. Why isn’t there a leitmotif approach? Other than a villain theme which sounded a lot like the Alien theme from ID4, the scores could really benefit from characters themes or recurring motifs. Why don’t they use Broughton’s main theme more? Are they not allowed? The pastiche form of scoring and orchestration is a treat, but it does seem a bit disconnected without recurring themes to thread it together. The scoring is at its best when it is in joyful optimism mode, but can (like most scores) get pedestrian when it’s time for suspense writing. The action music is temp track city, but it somehow works. It helps me that this is all attached to a show I adore with my heart. Has anyone seriously thought about making a spreadsheet or document for the temp track pieces? Here’s some of the ones I identified: The Mission (Amazing Stories) Adventures of Mutt Jurassic Park T. Rex Rescue Asteroid field March of the Resistance Minority Report? Raiders (in the jungle) Episode I the Droid Battle Lost World San Francisco Leaving Drydock (Original Alternate) Young Sherlock Holmes (solving the crime) Close encounters (climbing the mountain) I do hope this gets a physical release. I would enjoy liner notes and discrete breaks in the program to portion out the listening. GREAT score to my favorite show. Dr. Know 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 907 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Just curious is the show temp tracked with those pieces? Could well be, but I think not necessarily. I thought it more part of the goals of the show to pay homage to Star Trek as well as iconic film scores/composers. I think it's less composers trying to sound like the temp score and more paying homage to the scores mentioned. Could be both, but just it's obviously more than trying to sound like a temp score.

Jay 37,364 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 More posts by Dan Goldwasser in the FSM thread: Just in case you guys have to "redeliver" it at some point (or *IF* there's ever a physical release) I did notice one tiny error; track 36 starts a tad late, and cuts right into the middle of the opening note. Thank you for catching that - I just shot off an email to look into this! I wonder though, the music seems slightly muted in this recording. Not sure it's the orchestra's size, or recording environment, or mixing decisions (there's a definite difference between the "sound" of season 1 versus that of seasons 2 and 3) or whether it's a dynamic range thing (some of it blasts while song of it virtually disappears). As for the mixes - these are mixes made for the album by Shawn Murphy; the episode mixes ARE different in places, but the album represents the composer's preferred vision of the music.

Lovely cue; a nod to Grusin's ON GOLDEN POND. 58 minutes ago, Jay said: That's great he did that, but I want lossless quality not twitter quality lol A very easy edit, as the opening is essentially clean in the released track. I have to say, this is one of those cues that would typically get cut off just when it gained steam, but not in this case -- it just keeps going and builds. The longer running times of these episodes really allowed for sequences like this to be extended beyond what would have been possible in the earlier seasons. That is especially true of some of the incredible "arrival" cues. JNHFan2000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post leeallen01 2,136 Posted March 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2023 I understand the desire for more themes, but there are some lovely thematic ideas throughout. The obvious being the main theme, then the villain themes for the Moclan material, the Kaylon, and the Krill. But there are also gorgeous themes like the love theme for Claire and Isaac and Haveena's theme. Andy, Yavar Moradi and JNHFan2000 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy 4,129 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 And maybe I just need more familiarity, but it didn’t strike me upon my first listen.

leeallen01 2,136 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I love how 6:15-6:30 in 'Leaving the Dockyard/Under Fire' is basically Poe's Theme haha. 15 minutes ago, Andy said: I still think Broughton’s theme at the very least should be used for heroic flourishes, but it’s being wasted. I swear I remember it being used relatively frequently in the episodes themselves for that very purpose, and of course some of the ship going in and out of Quantum/establishing shots of the ship. Maybe I'm remembering wrong, or maybe they just aren't on the album for fear of repetitiveness. Yavar Moradi and Andy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy 4,129 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 You’re probably correct. They mentioned that a lot of edits were made for the show, but these are the originally intended scores. So likely within the show, they probably do bring in Broughton’s theme as needed. But I’d love to hear some scene specific permutations of it woven in an organic way. leeallen01 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeallen01 2,136 Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 I've decided to take a different approach with this. Instead of listening all the way through all the time, I'm taking it episode by episode, and re-listening to each episode over and over, in order to really seperate them as complete mini-scores of their own. It's interesting going from composer to composer and also from genre to genre. Like an adventure score to a horror score to a mystery score to an action score to a drama score. Of course each episode has all those elements on their own, but still, there's a heavy obvious tone difference between them, and it's fascinating to really immerse myself into each score on its own. It's like having 10 score releases. Yavar Moradi and Tom Guernsey 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
