Popular Post Luke Skywalker 1,794 Posted July 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 11, 2022 She is giving a heck lot of interviews… one would think that shewould like to play a low profile… anyway if chow prevented her from doing a williamesque soundtrack, thats very sad because she might have provided a decent score. Maybe only williams theme would have been necessary and no other rescoring. I feel sad for her now. Probably it was not her fault. hope that chow doesnt get more works in the sw universe. enderdrag64, Trope, crumbs and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Manakin Skywalker 4,891 Posted July 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 11, 2022 Either way I'm glad she's doing all these interviews. It's given us a lot of insight into what happened, and we practically have the whole picture at this point (or at least enough information to piece it all together), instead of being left in the dark only being able to guess at what went down as usual.

She says that she wrote a lot of Williams-esque themes and Deborah Chow didn't like any of them, the only early theme she approved was the RCP-like inquisitor theme And she said she did 17 versions of the young Leia theme! Sounds like the whole process was not great for Holt. Even after Chow approved a major theme, it had to go to Kennedy for her feedback and approval. That process sounds awful.

Popular Post Jay 37,336 Posted July 12, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 12, 2022 Another Holt interview https://gizmodo.com/obi-wan-kenobi-music-natalie-holt-john-williams-intervi-1849166218 " io9: That’s so cool. Now, you mentioned that you found out John Williams was going to do a new theme, which is incredibly exciting, and that it wasn’t a given you’d be able to use his original music. So talk about the conversations of when and how to use John Williams’ music. Holt: The whole thing with John’s permission [is] literally they were like, “If John doesn’t give us permission for us to use his music, we cannot use it.” So that was the thing. John watched it through in January and...he pinpointed where we were allowed to use it. And then [composer] Bill Ross adapted things and worked with John on adapting his theme for those areas that they identified. Then the other bit was kind of left down to me to score. So it wasn’t me making the decision about where John’s music was going to come in. But then once I knew where it was going to go, I could sort of lead into it. And so with the Vader theme, I was using the “Imperial March” rhythmic element underneath on the drums. [hums some deep notes] Like that’s underneath but over the top, there’s something dark and more kind of atonal. I used a hunting horn and pitch-shifted double basses and just like the low end of the orchestra to create this dread. I know you can’t please everybody, but yeah, we tried our best to make it a balance between the old and the new and make it feel like it was leading to earning those moments in episode six. io9: Speaking of Williams’ music, the teaser trailer for Obi-Wan Kenobi had both “Duel of the Fates” and “Battle of the Heroes” in it. Obviously, that’s a marketing decision you have nothing to do with, but when you heard that, were you worried it would set up unrealistic expectations since those songs aren’t in the show? Holt: It’s really tricky. I don’t know. It’s just not my decision. I don’t have anything to do with it. I didn’t have anything to do with where John placed his music or allowed those moments to come through. It’s all run through higher powers and different departments. But yeah, it does feel a little misleading, I suppose, because those pieces are iconic and they’re so exciting. I don’t know... I’d like to look back and see if that music was connected to The Mandalorian trailers. But, yeah perhaps it feels like it could have been something in the Obi world that would have made it more tied together with what we were trying to do, sure.

Popular Post artguy360 1,843 Posted July 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 12, 2022 From Holt's interviews, the whole soundtrack process continues to sound like a nightmare. I wonder why it was handled so badly? For example why was there uncertainty around JW's involvement and use of his themes? I would have thought Solo provided a good template. I personally do not believe the "JW called up Kathleen Kennedy one day and said I'd really like to write a theme for Ben" story. That just seems weird. I imagine Lucasfilm would have wanted to have JW's involvement locked in pretty early. Maybe it was a schedule thing. But considering how much William Ross music ended up in the show, it seems like someone panicked about Holt's score and got JW and Bill Ross' to do a patch job.

You've got 9 other scores to listen to if you want his SW sound - can't you let a few other composers have their moment? Who said everyone has to sound like John Williams? How many times do we have to say that we are fine with people who don't sound like John Williams for virtually every other Star Wars show but this one? I mean, what about "This show is basically Episode 3.5" do you not get? This wasn't just some other random Star Wars show, it was marketed heavily with PT music, it was set right between ROTS and ANH, it featured the return of multiple PT actors, and it was extremely important to the overall saga story. Why should things like Battlefront and Fallen Order get scores performed by the LSO that are written to sound just like JW's Star Wars universe, but not a show like this? Aside from Ross' contributions, even a lot of music in The Clone Wars, Rebels, Bad Batch, Visions, etc. has sounded closer to JW than this show. You seem to think that anybody who disliked Holt's score for Kenobi, has a problem with letting "a few other composers have their moment"... even though many of us are fine with—and even enjoy—scores like Ludwig Gorransson's Mando, Shirley's Boba Fett, and are looking forward to Britell's Andor. Those scores don't need to sound anything like JW, and I haven't said a word against them. So why are you acting as though we're all a bunch of JW purists, who can't handle any Star Wars music that doesn't sound like JW? This "let a few other composers have their moment" is getting old and sounds like a strawman. Sorry if I am coming across as harsh, but I just don't get what is so difficult about noticing that this particular show is different from the others, and noticing that the people who are critical of the music in this, aren't in fact opposed to other composers having their moment. And it's not just people here at JWFan who feel like this; you don't have to look far online to find plenty of people who wish this show had a more classic Star Wars sound. I'm fine with literally every other show sounding like whatever style its composer wants it to sound like, so why is it such an outrageous thing for me to want just this one show to sound like JW's Star Wars?

Popular Post GerateWohl 4,349 Posted July 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2022 This argument "not everyone has to sound like John Williams" implies in a way, that John Williams always sounds the same. But he doesn't in my opinion. He created a specific Star Wars sound. And that are not just his famous themes. Problem is rather that other composers often only have always one same sound when it comes to orchestral adventure music. And if they get a Star Wars assignment, they use that one orchestral adventure sound that they know and they are capable of. At least my impression. But this story that gets implied b Holt in the interviews really sounds mean. She, excited to write a Star Wars score, then pushed by Chow and Kennedy to move her music away from the typical Star Wars sound, and then Ross brought in to add the typical Star Wars sound. Weird.

A perfect example star wars music does not need to fit within the the John Williams mould to be successful My main gripe with the Holt material is just that it isn't very good, in general, not that it isn't good star wars music Also I don't really see a problem with today's new composers trying to be inventive and unique (see success of Mando theme). Imagine if film music never evolved past its humble beginnings. We would be listening to the same kind of scores as people did 100 years ago! Composers like Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, Gorranson, Clint Mansell, Vangelis even Zimmer and artists like Daft Punk have been pushing the envelope, successfully. If they are not successful I don't know what is But with anything, there is a time and a place for new things, and the Kenobi show was not one of them Game of Thrones might have a thing or two to say about that “most memorable TV theme of the decade” claim.

My primary concern when reading the discussion here lately has been that we seem a bit of a 'glass half empty' bunch. Give us a release, a new score, or something else, and we (royal 'we') look for flaws, problems, or missed opportunities before celebrating what we did get. Hence in the case of this show, we got a glimpse of what it might've been had JW/Ross scored the whole thing, and it just seems to me that it's put the forum on a bit of a more severe case of 'what could have been'. And the various suggestions that Holt has been inconsistent about when JW came on, whether it was a thematic rescore or more of an emergency partial rescore. All these discussions feel to me an attempt to 'paint' the situation as JW/Ross having saved the show from Holt's modern sound, and that LFL/KK finally 'saw the light'. As someone who these days prefers a lot of more modern, alternative scoring, I tend to find lamenting over the loss of JW's sound a bit old-fashioned.

Let’s get back to reality. Let’s call this show what it really is: a cash grab. This show shouldn’t even exist. Before you heard of this show, were you clamoring for an Obi-Wan show? Nope. Who was asking for this show? Maybe a small minority of Star Wars fan. This show is basically another Loki, Hawkeye, Mandalorian…This show exists because of Disney’s strategy of making as many sequels and spinoffs as possible since known properties are valuable marketing tools. And just using the other shows as barometers, you knew this was going be an elevated NBC type show. Nothing more, nothing less. Did anyone really think they planned this show with the notion this is Episode 3.5? Just reading the interviews, it seemed like they wanted Williams’ involvement more as an obligation than creating music with artistry and care. They hired Holt because of her previous work with Loki, and she is a rising choice for these type of mid-level shows. In hindsight, Holt’s music is exactly what anyone should be expecting from an exploitation show like this. artus_grayboot, Edmilson and Trope 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad Ross has always come across as ego-less in interviews. To not be nominated on a project you contributed substantial work and original music to is a terrible slight. He deserves better. michael_grig, Oswin Pond, Tydirium and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CGCJ 394 Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Some cue information! (courtesy of Songview): Spoiler Lucas Star Wars Title - William Ross Battle Part 1 - William Ross Battle Part 2 - William Ross Blackbear Stops Ship Overlay - Andreas Gutuen Aaser There's more but they're just OST titles and with only entries for William Ross it's unsure whether those are actual cues or simply the OST. Also, Andreas Gutuen Aaser has Mapuzo on his website and has a video on his Intragram performing nose flute for the cue.
