Popular Post Knight of Ren 789 Posted June 15, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2022 The 5th episode was both an improvement and a disappointment. The episode itself it's a bit better than the previous ones, and has some great scenes with Vader. The music also sounded better for the most part, but the disappointment comes when they still don't quote Williams themes, but they put music that sound like a rip-off of those same themes. There was a moment where the imperial forces are attacking the base, and the music it's almost screaming to be the Imperial March, but it never reaches to quote the melody itself, which I found kind of distracting. And there was a moment in the flashback sequence between Anakin and Obi-Wan where it looked like it was going to play the Force Theme, and the first two or three notes are the same, but then just goes in a totally different direction. I must say that the score this episode it's better than most of what has come before this one, but the lack of classic themes it's still a bit confusing and disappointing. Even so, I still have some hopes that the last episode will include at least some brief callbacks enderdrag64, Andy and DangerMotif 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbs 14,319 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 It was definitely the best score yet. It's still obvious which cues are Holt and which are Ross, but I think both did their best work in this episode (despite Holt's music sounding so depressingly RCP-ified). Ross did some very clever hints at the Imperial March without actually stating the theme (when Vader is marching through the tunnel, towards the end). It sounded like he was quoting Holt material too, which is interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j39m 75 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 While the show is overall moving in the right direction (for my tastes), I'm still lukewarm on the music. I don't think it'll get Natalie dragged to the Hague, but I'm not terribly keen on it myself. Even the main theme (which has become increasingly easier for me to pick out in recent episodes) doesn't really get me going. That "action" ostinato (short-short long, short-short long) tends to overstay its welcome for me and always feels strangely under-tempo. I yearn for metric variety and notes in upbeat pockets.

p0llux 400 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 We talk of "hints" and "seeds" in here and there weren't any real strong ones heard so far in this series...until now. Five full eps later and nearly the end of the series. The obvious Imperial March rhythm accompanying Vader in this ep was the level of "seeding" that should've been implemented since ep1 for the other themes. Minimal sherlocking was needed to identify that and the main melody wasn't even played. It's the perfect balance between seeding and sherlocking. So you see, Natalie Holt, you can hide themes without it requiring an absurd amount of digging, searching, and theorizing. Why you didn't do it sooner is beyond me. artus_grayboot and Oswin Pond 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Andy 4,141 Posted June 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2022 Everyone is so focused on themes, themes, themes. I'd be happy if there was just some appealing textures or motifs. I'm not hearing the seeds others are, and perhaps it's because I'm invested in the show and not trying to listen through the sound design. But I am not getting those goosebumps when you have the perfect marriage of little accents and melodies that accompany the big moments. A simple example is the Rise of Skywalker scene of Finn and Poe blasting through the hallways to rescue Chewbacca. There's a lively and appealing brass march that is not overbaked, but perfectly orchestrated to complement the visuals and sound effects. That's Star Wars music. Everything here sounds just smeared like a finger-painting. I love when film music sizzles just enough so that you get that accent on the visuals, but doesn't dominate nor disappear. That perfect balance. If we're going to get music that is just slathered in, I'd rather have none at all, and let the sound designers provoke our ears with silence and crystal clear effects that crackle. Speederbike Chase. Bespin Duel. Podrace. Battle of Yavin (middle section). Sometimes less is more, and conservative spotting is the way to go.

DarthDementous 1,059 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 The music barely made an impression on me this episode. The only cue ( ) I remember fondly is the piece that plays when the transport ships are launched from the Star Destroyer, seems to be another variation of the logo music I heard a vague attempt of referencing Battle of the Heroes during the flashback fight but it was so disparate and limp that I'm not even sure. Reva's march is catchy but repetitive and is orchestrated in a way that sounds oddly artificial, which if it wasn't for a lot of the other cues I'd think was an intentional comment on her character. Also does not help that my brain keeps correcting it into the Imperial March, even though it's an off-shoot I find it doesn't stand on its own as much as say Krennic's theme or the Rogue One Imperial theme where it's built from the same DNA but has its own distinct melody and rhythm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you're right though. I'm pretty new to these forums though, so I don't know what the criticism of earlier, other composers that have worked in Star Wars looked like. I have seen a lot of people not like Kevin Kiner's work on here, though, which really did surprise me. I really like his stuff. The standards are so high that even Solo ruffled a tiny amount of feathers, since Powell's approach to percussion (which aren’t synth loops like they want you to believe) was too anachronistic paired with the traditional SW sound for their money. To say less of anyone else, whom admittedly probably have less people commenting on them as a result of it being more common types of spin offs like video games or animated series. The conversation seemingly opens up once it comes to theatrical releases and live action television series. Quote I really appreciate the balance you're trying to bring to the discussion by bringing this up, though! What kind of ire do you think would have happened if she used the pre-existing material? Thanks. Admittedly, I think I've been a little too hard on folks here, since a lot of the arguments about this being a story in-between the OT and PT with key characters necessitating that classic JW sound are logical ones. There are plenty of announced spin offs that lend for musical diversity within the franchise, so this should've been the one place where we stick to the rules as strictly as we can. I have since decided to sample some of Loki, and suddenly the RCP comparisons aren't the most far fetched thing anymore. It still has more personality than those tend to have, but suffice it to say that I'm sure had Holt put classic themes in the Obi-Wan score, it wouldn't feel too much different from the Samuel Kim recording. Same general complaints, just with the added touch of "it sounds all wrong!" for the brief moments you heard a random callback. I guess the real issue for me is less the complaints about the music for the series, and more just the blowback against modern music in general. Even when there's an admittance that the problem mainly lies with modern blockbusters, it's hard not to pull a Thor and ask why we're so attached to film/TV music within just Hollywood when there's a lot of other places we can look to for something fresh. Hell, I'd argue even within the current film landscape that there's some gems here and there. Hesham Nazih did insanely stellar work on Moon Knight, and SW definitely hired a great talent in Nicholas Britell for Andor. Of course, behind the scenes trouble means little if you only care about the end result, but I wish we weren't so keen on railing against the composers themselves and instead critique the system that pushes for the lowest common denominator. Some will say they already do that, but it just doesn't feel it sometimes. artus_grayboot, ragoz350 and Yavar Moradi 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tydirium 1,167 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Why do I have a bad feeling that the Ross music either won't be included on the soundtrack album, or if it is, that many of his highlights will be missing? I could also imagine a situation in which—even if his music is included on the album—Natalie Holt is listed as the artist for each track, but then you go look at the "composer" metadata behind the scenes and lo and behold, some of the tracks list William Ross as the composer. This obviously should not happen, since he is as much an "artist" as a "composer"; he is listed separately in the credits, he conducted his tracks, his stuff was recorded in a different studio, with different production staff, etc. But for some odd reason I can just imagine Holt getting all the credit on the surface, and Ross not being given the credit he is due. I can understand situations like in TCW and Bad Batch, where a track will list Kevin Kiner as the artist, but then the composer field will actually list David G. Russell, Sean Kiner, Dean Kiner, etc. But the difference is, those guys are all on Kiner's team. Ross is a separate entity from Holt; he should not be treated as a background guy like her additional music composers. Basically, I don't want Ross to get swept under the rug. He clearly did a lot of work on this show, he got a standalone credit in the end credits of each episode right after Holt, etc. It would be kind of outrageous if his music isn't there on the OST. But I must admit, I'm worried by the fact that it seems there will only be one album, for all six episodes. Of course, it's a digital release, so they could dump all the music on one album... but based on Loki, Mando, Bad Batch, etc., I was expecting the music to be split onto at least two volumes. greenturnedblue and artus_grayboot 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really sure how to make of any of it. Thematic consistency is least of Marvel music's problem. The bigger problem is the lack of memorability. Again, out of 25 or so films, you have 4-5 films with great music and maybe the Avengers theme is the only truly recognizable theme in the franchise still. Zimmer wrote more memorable stuff in one film (WW84 or even Batman v Superman) than all those Marvel composers. You can complain about Dune all you want, but when you hear the percussion riff and the banshee cry, you know it is Dune. That is more than I can say for majority of the Marvel film music.

Btw aside from Wonder woman theme i dont remember any other music from those two movies... The DC universe absolutely can do better with music too. Music in the superhero genre in general is probably the most underwhelming vs its potential. I was referring to cues like "A Beautiful Lie." But even outside of Wonder Woman, Zimmer's two note Batman theme or even his one note Joker theme is more recognizable than most Marvel scores. Zimmer's "Flight" and his Man of Steel theme are probably more recognizable as well. Microsoft used it for its Halo commercials. Regardless, I think people are asking for thematic consistency when there is barely anything memorable enough to demand such a consistency. artus_grayboot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why Zimmer is the "second coming of Christ" to them. Not hard to understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could also imagine a situation in which—even if his music is included on the album—Natalie Holt is listed as the artist for each track, but then you go look at the "composer" metadata behind the scenes and lo and behold, some of the tracks list William Ross as the composer. This obviously should not happen, since he is as much an "artist" as a "composer"; he is listed separately in the credits, he conducted his tracks, his stuff was recorded in a different studio, with different production staff, etc. But for some odd reason I can just imagine Holt getting all the credit on the surface, and Ross not being given the credit he is due. I can understand situations like in TCW and Bad Batch, where a track will list Kevin Kiner as the artist, but then the composer field will actually list David G. Russell, Sean Kiner, Dean Kiner, etc. But the difference is, those guys are all on Kiner's team. Ross is a separate entity from Holt; he should not be treated as a background guy like her additional music composers. Basically, I don't want Ross to get swept under the rug. He clearly did a lot of work on this show, he got a standalone credit in the end credits of each episode right after Holt, etc. It would be kind of outrageous if his music isn't there on the OST. But I must admit, I'm worried by the fact that it seems there will only be one album, for all six episodes. Of course, it's a digital release, so they could dump all the music on one album... but based on Loki, Mando, Bad Batch, etc., I was expecting the music to be split onto at least two volumes. I feel like you've said this 50 times lmao Why would he NOT be included?? bro if a song by fucking thundercat can get onto the book of boba soundtrack anything can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
