crocodile 7,939 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Listening to the album for the second time now. The end credits track is one of my favourite things Horner has ever written. The pop first half is definitely better than any of his terrible songs. Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,619 Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I wish Intrada hadn't used a delivery that requires a signature. Mine's been holed up at my local sorting office for 2 days because I don't have time to go there in the morning and they close at 2.30pm. (I would suggest it's more logical to open later so people can collect packages on the way back from work, but I equally suspect that it's simply because it's staffed by early birds who don't want to stay late) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,619 Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 First world problem. More that I fancied a small rant about my anti-night-owl post office, not really aimed at Intrada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They mess up more than most seem to notice or care about, but thankfully for the assembly and mastering, this was a Matessino project. Nice essay from John Takis too!

Popular Post NL197 368 Posted January 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 27, 2019 Here's a copy of what I'd written regarding chronological order of the album on the corresponding FSM board page: A Son's Worries And Simulator Crash (4:37) - This is THREE cues combined into one. It is not possible to make this 100 percent chronological unless you were to split the three cues up. If one were to do that, this would be the order: 01. Main Title (Film Version) (1:53) 02. Lunar Dreams (2:40) 03. The Docking Simulation (0:51-2:11) - this is unused. 17. Marilyn’s Nightmare (0:58) 03. A Son's Worries (start to 0.50) 03. Simulator Crash (2:12 - end) 04. Night Visitors (1:08) 05. All Systems Go – The Launch (10:19) 06. Docking (2:26) 18. Canister Explosion (0:24) 07. Master Alarm (Film Version) (3:31) 19. Reactant Valves (1:09) 08. Into The L.E.M. (Film Version) (5:10) 20. Out Of Control (1:08) 21. Power Off (0:57) 09. The Dark Side Of The Moon (5:18) 22. A Square Peg (3:49) - This is two cues. First is start to 1:40. 10. Carbon Dioxide (5:45) 22. I call it "A New Plan" (1:40 to end) This is unused. 11. Manual Burn (1:56) 12. A War Story (1:06) 13. Four More Amps (3:22) 23. Cosmic Connection (0:44) 14. L.E.M. Jettison (1:37) 15. Re-Entry And Splashdown (Film Version) (9:15) 16. End Credits (Film Version) (6:55) Incanus, enderdrag64, ManofDestiny and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I also find that the near-chronological listening experience with the smaller electronic cues placed in the main programme actually works very well and gives some breathing room between the lengthier orchestral pieces. A fantastic release and one that I am bound to listen to as much as The Rocketeer, another top-tier Intrada produced expanded Horner soundtrack. crocodile and Amer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those electronics didnt do much for me so I pretty much stuck to the main program. But do you think the promo version on disc 2 is a different mix than the one on disc 1. Because I think Disc 1 sounds better. Haven't really done much of A & B comparason. 2 minutes ago, Incanus said: I couldn't see anything wrong with the actual printed booklet. me neither.

Trope 488 Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 This was the second expanded score I ever purchased and I still love listening to it! Certainly one of the best 90s Horner scores, and the launch cue might be the single most epic piece of music he wrote! Has there been any discussion about the opening 45 seconds of "Into the L.E.M. (Film Version)" and why that section sounds like there is some strange phasing/microphone overlap going on? I didn't notice it until I listened with headphones and compared it to the regular album version of the same cue. Jay and OneBuckFilms 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The remastered soundtrack on disc 2 doesn't have this, so this is a different take. Sounds like the violins and cellos are out of time with each other. It was probably used in the film due to synch issues. Trope 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that is what you mean or maybe this adds to the effect you described. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right, it is just the violas doing their best Mahler 10 impression (I don’t hear trumpet at all, maybe when the tuba comes in, but I’ll take your word for it). But they are not playing together, whoever it is. That’s where the phasing is coming from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
