Popular Post Alex 2,882 Posted March 19, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 19, 2022 A few things I’ve noticed about this interview, apart from the fact I find this guy insufferable. 1) His casual dismissal of the European orchestra. 2) His desperation to appear like he’s doing something new or interesting. 3) How uncomfortably close he gets to the female vocalist.

KK 3,308 Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 I didn't have much of a problem with anything you highlighted. I mean he's not entirely wrong about classic science fiction (and most big film music for that matter) being guided by Euro-centric music traditions...although he's ignoring specific genre/film context in some of those examples. And the European orchestra, considering its predominant role in world's biggest and wealthiest institutions, needs no defending... But what makes him the authority on non-European modes of music? I cringed at 6:50, where he has a European white woman demonstrate South Indian konnakol (Carnatic percussive rhythms), albeit poorly may I add, and callously identify that as "rhythmic stuff" without an acknowledgement of its musical roots. NONE of that is original to Loire Cotler...that was a very basic korvai pattern any South Asian musician will recognize. Add to that throwaway remarks like "make that sound like a Tibetan war horn" and "ethnic landscape"...all of this reeks of cultural appropriation, exotification and white privilege, however impressive its assembly may be...all amassed to reinforce the Zimmer name and brand. 9 hours ago, Alex said: I wish other scores got this kind of Vanity Fair piece.

bruce marshall 1,356 Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Watching the film... It's good work by HZ but i wish the director had been more selective. There's too much music which lessens its impact. On 03/12/2021 at 6:11 PM, Edmilson said: Directors like Chris Nolan and Denis Villeneuve love to mix their scores very, very loud on the movie. It was the same thing on Interstellar (which is a score that I like), Tenet and Blade Runner 2049. In Dune's case, the music is so loud sometimes that it's hard to hear everything else including dialogue. Sure, I have subtitles for their lines in Portuguese so I can understand what they're saying, but for people on English-speaking countries this must be infuriating. On video the dialog was crystal clear in two track stereo On 18/01/2022 at 12:19 AM, badbu said: it's always the same with zimmer scores. The best cues are missing but the fyc score is really good.

publicist 4,647 Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 And it's still a 2022 Top 3 score. I may wish a true intellectual like i. e.

Edmilson 8,680 Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 I've been listening to the FYC of Dune, which is a nice presentation of the score as heard in the movie, despite some boring bits. I still don't care for the wailing woman parts, but I really liked the theme on 6M46 Holy War Across the Galaxy. This cue reminded me of some of the epic 2000s Zimmer scores, like King Arthur, The Da Vinci Code and Pirates (specifically, the cue from the Jack Sparrow sacrifice scene on Dead Man's Chest). badbu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MaxMovieMan 294 Posted March 20 Popular Post Share Posted March 20 I decided to do a prequel of sorts to the thematic breakdown I did of Part Two. Again using @WampaRat’s thematic glossary I put together this track-by-track analysis of both the complete first score and the sketchbook album. THEMES/MOTIFS Dune Main Theme - I don’t think this theme represents one thing. It represents Paul, his destiny, Arrakis, and the overall story of Dune in general. It is a true “main” theme. There are two different variations of the main theme. There is the 4-note variation that is more mystical, ethereal, and powerful (Used for sandworms and epic moments) and then there is the 8-note variation that is more mysterious, ethnic, and malleable (Used for Paul, Arrakis, and his destiny). When both variations play together I call it the main theme. This usually only happens in pivotal moments or concert suites. Fate/“The One” Theme - The second main theme of Dune is for the chosen one, the Kwisatz Haderach. When this theme is screamed it sounds like a powerful war anthem but when it is subdued on woodwind or whisper the theme has a much more sinister/seductive vibe to it. Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords - The next two motifs/themes are very connected. The Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords often play in tangent with the Tragic Noble theme. So for this reason these chords are essentially just for all matters of wonder/awe/visions that are in the Dune universe. Tragic Noble Theme - This theme represents the responsibility/cost of being a leader, specifically when it comes to House Atreides. It connects to the Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords a lot which shows how this theme too is mystical in nature. Impending Doom Motif - My favorite motif from the film, this dark and menacing motif represents the darkness on the horizon for the Dune universe. Whether it be the evilness of the Harkonnens, the Sardukar, or Paul himself, this motif encompasses all scheming and danger. Sorrow/Loss Motif - This short little sad motif represents the sorrow that the Atreides experience in Dune. More specifically relating to Leto losing just about everything. Duncan Idaho Motif - Batman-esque motif that plays in essentially the same manner whenever Duncan arrives to the scene. House Atreides - This absolutely gorgeous theme went very underused in the first film being completely shrunk to just the bagpipe aspect for the Atreides army. The main vocal part of this theme is incredible and I can see why Hans ended up deciding to use it as the main theme of Part Two. It’s elegant yet also tragic which perfectly captures both House Atreides/Paul and Chani’s love. Bene Gesserit Whispers/Chants - Little whispers and occasional loud chanting whenever the Bene Gesserit’s schemes are at play. Arrakis Drum Motif - The most prominent motif in the series, this short little drum burst is everywhere in the score not representing one particular thing ever. However there are a couple of instances where this drum motif is highlighted specifically (Arrakeen and Dream of Arrakis). I think in both of these cases the drum motif is representing the roughness of the desert. Sardukar Throat Singing Motif - Strange vocal throat singing manipulation that represents the Sardukar (And maybe even the God-Emperor????) Harkonnen Screech - Loud siren-like horn that represents the Harkonnens. Harkonnen Clang - Metallic clang that represents the Harkonnens. Fremen Chimes - Small little chime march that represents the Fremen way of life. THE DUNE SKETCHBOOK TRACK-BY-TRACK BREAKDOWN Song of the Sisters Spoiler Suite that represents the ancient order of the Bene Gesserit. 0:12 - Arrakis Drum Motif 3:33 - Bene Gesserit Whispers/Chant 8:26 - Bene Gesserit Seduction Motif (Later developed into Feyd Rautha’s motif) I See You in My Dreams Spoiler Suite that represents the visions both Paul and the Fremen see after intaking spice melange. 1:10 - Dune “B” Theme 2:50 - Fate/“The One” Theme 6:30 - Dune “B” Theme 7:50 - Dune “A” Theme 9:50 - Dune Main Theme 12:29 - Bene Gesserit Whispers/Chant House Atreides Spoiler Suite that represents the beauty, majesty, and power of House Atreides. 0:00 - House Atreides Theme The Shortening of the Way Spoiler Suite that represents the plan of the Kwisatz Haderach and the potential it has for impending doom. 0:29 - Dune Main Theme 3:18 - Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords 3:54 - Dune “A” Theme 5:14 - Impending Doom Motif 6:14 - Tragic Noble Theme 6:49 - Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords 7:37 - Tragic Noble Theme 8:09 - Harkonnen Clang 8:09 - Impending Doom Motif 10:18 - Tragic Noble Theme Paul’s Dream Spoiler Suite that is essentially the “main” theme/suite of the series. It is a highlight of both the main themes. 0:27 - Fate/“The One” Theme 2:30 - Dune “B” Theme 3:10 - Dune Main Theme 4:47 - Fate/“The One” Theme 4:57 - Arrakis Drum Motif 5:02 - Fate/“The One” Theme 5:12 - Arrakis Drum Motif 5:15 - Fate/“The One” Theme 5:32 - Arrakis Drum Motif 5:38 - Fate/“The One” Theme 5:47 - Arrakis Drum Motif 5:52 - Fate/“The One” Theme 6:02 - Arrakis Drum Motif 6:08 - Fate/“The One” Theme 6:17 - Arrakis Drum Motif 6:23 - Fate/“The One” Theme 6:35 - Arrakis Drum Motif Moon over Caladan Spoiler Suite that represents the beautiful water-world of Caladan. Sadly the melody here went unused in the films. 1:35 - Arrakis Drum Motif Shai-hulud Spoiler Suite that represents the insanity of the deep desert. Mind-killer Spoiler Suite that represents all the evil in the Dune universe. 0:52 - Arrakis Drum Motif 1:05 - Harkonnen Screech 1:40 - Sardukar Throat Singing 3:14 - Harkonnen Screech 3:39 - Arrakis Drum Motif 3:41 - Harkonnen Clang 3:54 - Sardukar Throat Singing 4:33 - Arrakis Drum Motif 5:01 - Sardukar Throat Singing 5:02 - Harkonnen Screech 5:14 - Sardukar Throat Singing 5:53 - Arrakis Drum Motif 5:54 - Harkonnen Clang 6:07 - Arrakis Drum Motif 6:08 - Sardukar Throat Singing 6:19 - Arrakis Drum Motif 6:20 - Sardukar Throat Singing 6:48 - Harkonnen Clang 7:14 - Impending Doom Motif 7:39 - Arrakis Drum Motif 7:41 - Impending Doom Motif 7:41 - Harkonnen Screech 8:05 - Arrakis Drum Motif 8:08 - Impending Doom Motif 8:08 - Harkonnen Clang 8:32 - Arrakis Drum Motif 10:18 - Fate/“The One” Theme Grains of Sand Spoiler Suite that represents the insanity of fanaticism. 0:00 - Bene Gesserit Whispers/Chant 1:53 - Arrakis Drum Motif DUNE: PART ONE TRACK-BY-TRACK BREAKDOWN (In chronological order) Dreams Are Messages From The Deep (UNRELEASED) Spoiler The iconic opening quote from the film. 0:03 - Sardukar Throat Singing Dream of Arrakis Spoiler Opening scene with Chani explaining the history between the Fremen and the Harkonnens. 0:15 - Arrakis Drum Motif 1:00 - Harkonnen Clang 1:35 - Arrakis Drum Motif 1:36 - Harkonnen Clang 2:04 - Arrakis Drum Motif Waking Up (UNRELEASED) Spoiler Paul wakes up on Caladan. 0:00 - Dune “B” Theme Give Me The Water (UNRELEASED) Spoiler Jessica trains Paul in the Way. Herald of the Change Spoiler House Atreides is given control of Arrakis by the emperor. This is probably, from a classic film score perspective, the best track. Just because of how it features basically every main theme of the film and also balances them together perfectly. This is one of the most “thematic” tracks of Dune. 0:00 - Dune “B” Theme 1:00 - Impending Doom Motif 1:19 - Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords 1:39 - Impending Doom Motif 1:49 - Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords 2:09 - Impending Doom Motif 2:34 - Bene Gesserit Whispers/Chant 3:06 - Tragic Noble Theme 4:03 - Impending Doom Motif Duncan Arrival (UNRELEASED) Spoiler Duncan Idaho arrives to the Caladan spaceport. 0:11 - Duncan Idaho Motif Paul Tells Duncan His Dream (FYC) Spoiler Paul tells Duncan his dream and then goes to see his father. 0:11 - Fate/“The One” Theme 0:28 - Arrakis Drum Motif 0:42 - Fate/“The One” Theme 0:52 - Arrakis Drum Motif 1:01 - Fate/“The One” Theme 1:21 - Duncan Idaho Motif 1:43 - Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords Castle Cemetery (UNRELEASED) Spoiler Leto has a talk with Paul about the future of House Atreides. 0:04 - Dune “B” Theme 0:29 - Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords House Harkonnen (UNRELEASED) Spoiler Rabban arrives to Giedi Prime in a rage over Arrakis being taken away. 0:10 - Harkonnen Screech 0:14 - Harkonnen Clang 0:23 - Harkonnen Screech House Harkonnen (Continued) (UNRELEASED) Spoiler The Baron soothes Rabban’s worries. 0:00 - Harkonnen Screech Bene Gesserit Arrive (FYC) Spoiler The Bene Gesserit arrive to Caladan to test Paul. 0:04 - Bene Gesserit Whispers/Chant 2:46 - Impending Doom Motif 2:49 - Bene Gesserit Whispers/Chant Gom Jabbar Spoiler The Reverend Mother tests Paul with the Gom Jabbar. 1:13 - Fate/“The One” Theme Bene Gesserit Leave (FYC) Spoiler The Bene Gesserit leave Caladan. 0:48 - Bene Gesserit Whispers/Chant The One Spoiler Jessica explains to Paul the purpose of the Bene Gesserit. 0:18 - Fate/“The One” Theme 1:50 - Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords Leaving Caladan Spoiler House Atreides departs Caladan for Arrakis.

Bagpipe Army (UNRELEASED) Spoiler The first appearance of the next main theme of Dune. The Atreides army forms up on Arrakis as the royal family arrives. 0:12 - House Atreides Theme Arrakeen Spoiler House Atreides arrives at Arrakeen. 0:54 - Arrakis Drum Motif Gift of the Crysknife (UNRELEASED) Spoiler Lady Jessica is offered a Crysknife by one of her house servants. 1:40 - Fate/“The One” Theme Sandwalk Video (FYC) Spoiler Paul watches a video about the Fremen sandwalk. 0:23 - Fremen Chimes 0:33 - Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords Hunter-Seeker (UNRELEASED) Spoiler Paul is stalked by a hunter-seeker. 0:13 - Harkonnen Clang Reverend Mother and Baron’s Deal (UNRELEASED) Spoiler The Reverend Mother requests that the Harkonnens spare Paul and Jessica. 0:40 - Harkonnen Screech 0:40 - Arrakis Drum Motif Duncan Arrives (UNRELEASED) Spoiler Duncan arrives to Arrakeen. 0:18 - Duncan Idaho Motif Stilgar (UNRELEASED) Spoiler The Atreides meet the leader of the Fremen; Stilgar. 0:02 - Fate/“The One” Theme Harvester Transport (UNRELEASED) Spoiler A transport picks up a spice harvester. 0:46 - Arrakis Drum Motif Flight To Spice Field (FYC) Spoiler Paul, his father, and Gurney fly to the spice fields under the guidance of Kynes. 0:00 - Dune “B” Theme Failed Harvester Lock (FYC) Spoiler The crew that went to the spice fields attempt to rescue a group of workers as a giant sandworm approaches. I decided to analyze the film version of the cue here as the organ at the end makes the main theme sound soooo much better than on album. 0:53 - Arrakis Drum Motif 1:42 - Dune “A” Theme 2:06 - Dune Main Theme 3:49 - Arrakis Drum Motif 4:09 - Dune “A” Theme 4:43 - Dune Main Theme Visions of Chani Spoiler Paul comes to grips with the visions he saw after being exposed to spice. 0:09 - Tragic Noble Theme 0:39 - Sorrow Motif 1:10 - Dune “A” Theme 2:24 - Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords 3:09 - Arrakis Drum Motif 3:24 - Dune “A” Theme Sardukar Chant (FYC) Spoiler The highlight track of the film. 0:00 - Sardukar Throat Singing Night On Arrakis Spoiler Things begin to turn for the worse as the Atreides rest on Arrakis. 0:19 - Sorrow Motif 0:24 - Bene Gesserit Whispers/Chant 1:19 - Tragic Noble Theme 1:49 - Arrakis Drum Motif Armada Spoiler House Harkonnen invades Arrakis and destroys the Atreides. 0:04 - Bene Gesserit Whispers/Chant 0:32 - Sorrow Motif 1:48 - Harkonnen Clang 1:48 - Harkonnen Screech 1:59 - Tragic Noble Theme 2:17 - House Atreides Theme 2:36 - Harkonnen Screech 3:11 - Sardukar Throat Singing 3:38 - Impending Doom Motif 3:52 - Sorrow Motif 3:59 - Impending Doom Motif 4:11 - Sorrow Motif 4:18 - Impending Doom Motif 4:35 - Sorrow Motif 4:49 - Sardukar Throat Singing Burning Palms Spoiler As the Harkonnens execute Atreides prisoners Duncan Idaho escapes the chaos. This is my favorite track of the film just because of the epic Impending Doom motif. So badass. 0:01 - Harkonnen Clang 0:01 - Harkonnen Screech 0:04 - Impending Doom Motif 0:20 - Harkonnen Screech 0:30 - Duncan Idaho Motif 0:44 - Arrakis Drum Motif 1:18 - Impending Doom Motif 2:01 - Arrakis Drum Motif 2:04 - Impending Doom Motif 2:47 - Harkonnen Clang 2:47 - Impending Doom Motif 3:13 - Arrakis Drum Motif 3:16 - Impending Doom Motif 3:43 - Arrakis Drum Motif The Voice (UNRELEASED) Spoiler Paul and Jessica use the Voice to escape the Harkonnens who kidnapped them.

Impending doom. 0:00 - Tragic Noble Theme 0:17 - Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords 0:40 - Tragic Noble Theme 0:57 - Impending Doom Motif 0:57 - Bene Gesserit Whispers/Chant 2:14 - Vast Mystery/Wonder Chords 2:32 - Impending Doom Motif 3:27 - Tragic Noble Theme Duncan Finds Paul (UNRELEASED) Spoiler Duncan reunites with Paul and Jessica in the desert. 0:52 - Duncan Idaho Motif Sanctuary Spoiler Kynes and Duncan take Paul and Jessica to an old ecological testing ground for sanctuary.

TolkienSS 449 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 This is one of those times where I wonder if people listen to large parts of the Soundtrack because they actually enjoy it. Or because it's an interesting construction to look at. Because most music of Dune to me serves no purpose outside of its purest form as aural texture. To me music needs an injection of meaning. I watched the film and I find no meaning in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight of Ren 967 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 For me, these two scores are great to dissect and analyze but for a listening experience they need some trimming and rearrangement to be fully enjoyable. And my appreciation for them has grown over time, but the soundtrack albums aren't as interesting to listen to on the whole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxMovieMan 294 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 I quite enjoy the themes and their variations. They’ve grown on me a lot. Like genuinely the melody of the main theme and the tragic noble theme are perfect in my mind. Listening to the music outside the film is like going into a dream-like state.
