Popular Post LSH 968 Posted April 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 3, 2022 I'm (perhaps pre-emptively, but it'll pay off) creating a discussion about this John Powell apprentice. His contributions to some of Powell's recent scores must be significant. I only say this because his recent Ice Age score is absolutely lovely and the best impression of Powell I've ever heard. I'm looking forward to hearing more from this guy. I mean, in lieu of Powell, he's obviously the next best thing (which is so strange to say for someone so 'fresh' on the 'scene'). I genuinely want to hear more from him. And perhaps his own style will permeate eventually. He's clearly talented. I'm sure there's more there within him. As others have said, his theme for Zee in the new Ice Age film is pure Powell. The most Powell thing I've heard that wasn't written by the guy himself. I think this guy is gonna go far. Powell, as a mentor, must be behind him. Will, Luka and Tom Guernsey 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverTrumpet 638 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Didn't I read somewhere that he wrote Corellia Chase from Solo? That's a hell of a track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was more of a "Powell + Batu combo", right? Either way, if Batu did this cue on his own, congratulations to him, it might be the best action cue of that score.

Will 2,215 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 I doubt Sener had a particularly major role in writing "Corellia Chase," given that Powell posted the sheet music for that cue on YouTube without giving credit to Sener. In any event, I completely agree about the two Ice Age scores. Gorgeous stuff: Some great action writing in here as well: See also: Edmilson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how reliable this website is but that cue appears to credited to both of them. https://hans-zimmer.com/discography/229/project/3306 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luka 242 Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Sener just posted this in his Instagram stories! Probably from Harold and the Purple Crayon? RPReplay_Final1676755989.mov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post PrayodiBA 517 Posted August 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 6, 2023 Wow, I just very late to acknowledge this beautiful music tease for Ataturk, due for release this October. Hear at this partcular part onwards: Batu Sener doesn't need to go "Powell" on this solo oeuvre, especially for this series. But based on the music above, Powell's tune progression & harmony has in fact rooted in at Sener's head 😍😍 And thus, we must be glad that we got a full Powell successor on our hands (now that Powell is on his slowing down pace) Yavar Moradi, Tom Guernsey and Luka 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luka 242 Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 The Part 1 album from Atatürk is out. What do you guys think? After a first listen, I feel like there a some really good things in there. I can start to hear Sener's style… Especially if we compare it to his "Lugano Impressions", which is a really good Cello and Piano short album. After all, Charles Tyler is the solo cellist on both projects. Unfortunate that the show will only come in 2024 on Disney+, but I'll certainly listen to the music a couple times until then. All in all, I'm just very happy Sener has quite a big project on his own. I think he has a bright future as a composer ahead of him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thestat 348 Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Listened to a lot of this as am impressed by Sener's work with Powell. Here - not sure. It is standard bio music, some interesting progressions and colours, but really, it's not anything to write home about. Sener did the job - the score functions - a release came out - okay.

Thor 7,490 Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 I thought Batu Sener was the name of that tiny, cute mechanic in the new STAR WARS films. Jurassic Shark and Edmilson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always two there are. A master and an apprentice. Alas John Powell just isn’t a Jedi Master name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmilson 7,426 Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Master Powell was under a Padawan under Master Zimmer, a former Jedi exiled from the Order due to his forbidden experiments with synths and power anthems. After climbing in the ranks of the Order, Powell went searching for the knowledge of the powerful Jedi High Council leader Master John Williams to study the seemingly forgotten art of the orchestral film scoring, then under attack by Zimmer's acolytes. A better plot than the SW sequels! Tom Guernsey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
