Alex 2,833 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Apologies if this has been covered but I was listening to TFA the other day and although I’ve always thought it sounded a bit different to TLJ, the release of TROS has made the difference even more jarring. I can’t really think of the appropriate word, the sound of TFA seems a bit less “full”, compared to the other sequel trilogy OSTs. Maybe it’s just my ears, but does anyone else think this?

Not Mr. Big 4,621 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 It's a great recording! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellaeon 593 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 It’s not new, of course, many people dislike the OST mix and much prefer the film/FYC mix. Others can’t hear a difference. To me it’s night and day from the very beginning. OST: FYC: Personally I really enjoy the FYC and the Lockhart concert suite recording (“Lights, Camera… Music!”), and have no use for the OST anymore. I always found the OST unbearable, and I even had a hard time listening to OST/FYC compilations. Just the plain FYC is a really excellent listening experience.

All the tiny flourishes of the orchestra you hear in the FYC are muffled or buried in the OST. I don't have the musical vocabulary to articulate exactly what's wrong with it but the side-by-side comparison is a stark contrast to my ears.

The OST does feel wetter than the FYC/Film mix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
