Rebels cost a tiny fraction of what Andor did and it's wallpapered with JW's themes. (Most of them are even from Star Wars!)

Jurassic Shark 12,076 Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 Kind of like the piece JW wrote for that Disney amusement park that they played all the time. Oh wait they didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tallguy 3,389 Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Of course what I really wanted was an entire series of music where the central motif was Williams' Imperial theme from Star Wars.

Gabriel Bezerra 302 Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Yeah, I was dead wrong... There's at least 6 themes I could identify listening to the albuns a couple of times: Andor A | Main Titles / Heroes (Sometimes used when Andor isn't even onscreen) Andor B | Past-Present Suite / Main Titles / Your Mother is Dead / Manifesto Luthen | Luthen Rael / Luthen of Coruscant Empire | ISB / I Thought He'd Be Here Defiance (?) | Kleya / Maarva's Rebellion (All over the later half of the series, thought it was a rebellion theme, but the last track of Vol. 3 named another one Rebellion) Rebellion | My Name Is Kino Loy / The Rebellion Suite Possible themes: Syril Suite / Mon Mothma / B2 / Bix Caleen Nice tracks that use 2 or more themes: Full Fondor | Luthen / Andor A / Empire The Rono Trawler | Defiance / Andor A / Empire One Way Out - Parts 5-7 / Battle | Empire / Defiance / Andor A 1 hour ago, Tallguy said: Of course what I really wanted was an entire series of music where the central motif was Williams' Imperial theme from Star Wars.

Rebels should have used it instead of the Imperial March, it got a little bit redundant when Vader came around. MaxMovieMan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC more in the first season and less as the series went on. Then Rogue One used it for Vader and Solo used it very briefly.

Popular Post Stark 316 Posted December 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 9, 2022 Rebels’ first season was largely mismatched cues from ANH, the later seasons’ scores became much more musically organized.

I'm sure there's a dozen other places where if someone did the same thing I would complain to high hell. But it made the whole thing feel like the best Star Wars adventure we'd had since 1980.

That made me quit the show at episode 1 because I couldn't bear listening to a discounted Williams. I eventually powered through but man the Rebels soundtrack is probably my least favorite score out of all the Star Wars content. It's on par with the EPIC VERSION or SLOWED AND REVERBED you see on youtube that butcher the OG tracks. DarthDementous 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rough cut 1,714 Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 So I’m going to watch this over the holidays. Seems like a good way to kill some time.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 For some reason I found this podcast about Britell’s score deeply irritating and didn’t make it through the whole thing, but I’m sure those of you who like the score will enjoy it. https://strongsongspodcast.com/episode/the-music-of-star-wars-andor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JNHFan2000 2,963 Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 I find this already irritating: "Look, sometimes a TV soundtrack is so good that you have no choice but to make a whole podcast episode about it." All the incredible TV scores this year, and then you pick this one to highlight. That's baffling. I like Britell, but Andor's score is not amomg the best scores of this year at all, amd other scores should warrant episodes lile this.

Popular Post thestat 348 Posted December 31, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 31, 2022 The Brittell score is what it is - Gilroy made JNH detonalise......

I'm not agreeing or disagreeing, but I wonder what makes them say that? I mean, it's a fantastic show and part of that is certainly what the score does. Does that make it a fantastic score?

artguy360 1,843 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 I'm randomly listening to this score and I don't think it's half bad. The music is sonically interesting, works really well in the show and adds greatly to the show's aesthetic, and, if I'm in the right mood, it's enjoyable to listen to on its own. I won't listen to it often, but it's not half bad when I do. Stark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
