But it would have to be something completely unreleased, of course, I have zero interest in expansions. And within that, anything completely unreleased by Williams, Elfman and Goldenthal, all of whom I am a completist. Beyond that, not that much. Maybe Faltermeyer's TOP GUN, but for the moment I'm pleased with an excellent-sounding boot of that; will work fine temporarily. I'm kinda surprised they didn't use MAVERICK as an opportunity to release it, but I know that LLL has tried and run into all kinds of hurdles. Hopefully some day. To expound a little upon my post from last year. 1. I'd like anything completely unrelesed by Williams. List here. 2. I'd like anything completely unreleased by Elfman. List here. 3. I'd like anything completely unreleased by Goldenthal. List here. 4. Harold Faltermeyer's TOP GUN and FLETCH. I have a great-sounding boot for TOP GUN, beautifully curated. So a replication of that, commercially released, would be fantastic. 5. Jean Michel Jarre's QUI VEUT DEVENIR UNE STAR? (2002) -- his second out of only two scores he did 6. Pink Floyd's THE COMMITEE (1968). Also David Gilmour's RUBY TAKES A TRIP (1991). 7. A number of completely unreleased Norwegian scores that none of you have heard of, like Bøhren & Åserud's SOLENS SØNN OG MÅNENS DATTER and PLASTPOSEN 8. Giorgio Moroder's IMPRESSIONEN UNTER WASSER (2002) 9. A great number of Vangelis scores, including MISSING, BITTER MOON, the Cousteau documentaries, a number of the Rossif documentaries etc. etc. 10. Other bits and bobs, many of them 80s synth scores by people like Sylvester Levay and Tim Truman. A proper, remastered edition of Tangerine Dream's THE KEEP. Etc.

Giftheck 916 Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 I have a few grails left: Never had a score album Digimon: The Movie. They released a songs album, and Udi Harpaz posted 50 tracks from the score on his SoundCloud, but it's not everything (the last third of the film has only one cue representing it on Harpaz's posting) and it's not HQ either. With the movie being re-released alongside new, uncut versions of its constituent films, now would actually be a good time for it. Spider-Man 3. Hopefully Elfman's now in a good enough place to allow this, if the rumours he was blocking the original score album are true. Has an official soundtrack but no expanded release Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Spider-Man: No Way Home. Spider-Man 2. Godzilla: King Of The Monsters. Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom. Has an official expanded release, but could be improved upon Star Trek 2009. It doesn't contain everything the film has, misses out the choir and alternatvie recordings. Star Trek Into Darkness. Pretty much for the same reasons as the 2009 film. The Lion King 1994. Probably never going to happen, but a better, less-clipped release would be welcome, at least. There's also the matter of a few officially-unreleased alternatives (one in the film, two on the bootleg that we know of for sure). The Matrix Reloaded. The original expansion is really nice, and I get that there were issues licensing Komit and Dread Rock (I get the former, but didn't Oakenfold write Dread Rock specifically for the official soundtrack?) But that doesn't mean they couldn't have gotten a few of those missing alternates in there. Heck, I'd take a Komit-less version of the film version of Free Flight. The Matrix Revolutions. Pretty much for the same reasons as Reloaded: missing alternates used in the film. The Terminator. The last release fixes quite a lot of the issues with the 'Definite' version but it was not complete, and even between the two releases you don't get everything.

I like those albums so much... No, afraid not. Missing from Reloaded: The film version of Trinity Vs Car. The film version of Free Flight, which is a combination of an unreleased orchestral piece and Juno Reactor's Komit. LLL stated this was left off due to licensing issues, but that doesn't explain why the orchestral part was left off given they included Davis' Burly Brawl and Multiple Replication cues. The film version of Double Trouble, which combines Davis' cue with Dreak Rock's drum and bass tracks. LLL stated this was left off due to licensing issues. Given Dread Rock was apparently written for the original soundtrack, I can't fathom what those issues would be. The bootlegs have an alternative version of Mona Lisa Overdrive, but given how short the different part is, they might not have thought it was worth including it. And missing from Revolutions: The film has an insert for The Breach that remains unreleased. An alternative version of Die Brünette Walküre that is present on bootlegs is not present. The film has an alternative for Moribund Mifune that remains unreleased. Brónach, Edmilson and Yavar Moradi 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be a bit surprised in that case that the artist wouldn't give the speciality label a break. If they made it for the film and they understood the target market of few thousand, instead of tens/hundreds of millions of copies, you'd think they'd do what the AFM does occasionally and do a special arrangement. Of course, it's time and effort for the labels to contact and talk to a normal artist. I fully understand that they want to put their attention elsewhere. --- I do like this thread as a way to reflect on the year. I've barely bought anything actually, but had a few other interesting things emerge. My top two grails are unchanged: #1: JP/// - for those less enthused, and wondering why some of us keep banging on about it, the OST is arranged to a Williams level of unneededness, misses a third of the score, and the promo is full of alternates and sounds like crap. #2: Gladiator - only second place because a leak way back contains probably everything there is, just in suboptimal noughties era 192k mp3. Just needs a proper mastering and any other bonus stuff there is. Everything else I'd like is just sort of nice to have really. I won't lie though - a ton of stuff is out in sessions where I wanted just two or three cues that weren't on the OST. I'm really not that bothered about official versions of those. Plus on the flip side, I was very happy to come across leaks of Bishara's The Conjuring 1 and 2. Mark Isham did some cues for the first score, most of which were unreleased. The sequel is missing nearly 30 minutes of music. Thankfully I came across perfect sounding sessions from both. No one's ever going to bother expanding stuff like this.

Those who grew up with Kids WB in the early 2000s, or had the promotional VHS tape from Burger King, will probably remember this show to at least some extent, and those who watched it via the 4Kids dub will definitely remember Cubix's heroic theme, which plays most prominently in his many transformation sequences: The variation at 1:00, most likely a general variation not written for any specific scene, saw quite a bit of use in the show—a little too much, perhaps; it's used three times in the first season examples in this video alone, and the second season uses it even more—but the first season had so many more unique variations on the theme that it still manages to stay interesting. I really like the variations at 0:18 (from S1E02 Electrix) and 3:03 (From S1E07 Hurricane Havoc). And the variation at 4:32-4:49, from S1E11 Office Politix, is just so perfectly bittersweet as it scores Cubix, covered in mini-robots that are about to blow him up, transforms and flies away so his friends don't get caught in the blast. (He gets better later, as you can see at 5:00) But it's not just the transformation music, this show has a good deal of other great musical highlights, too! For instance, the opening teaser (0:00-0:58) and entire climax of The Underground Of Bubbletown (18:12-21:25): Oh, and 15:15-15:59, too! Actually, nearly everything in the last half of this episode is a musical highlight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmilson 7,448 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Here's a very unlikely grail: Aquaman by Rupert Gregson-Williams. I really enjoy the movie and wish I could dive in (no pun intended) in the score, which I'm sure plays much better in complete and chronological form than in its horrible OST. The sessions haven't leaked (unlike RGW's Wonder Woman) and the only evidence of its existence is its page on the HZ fansite, but it hasn't appeared anywhere in the internet. And since it was recorded in LA in 2018 an expansion seems rather unlikely... Still, I hope to listen to the complete score + the suites one day. Another one that hasn't surfaced yet is Zimmer's Dunkirk. I have a weird relationship with this score, it's not exactly the kind of music I like to hear and it can be credited as being one of the creators of the "wall of music" style of score that Nolan and Villeneuve LOVE, but still I do wish to listen to the complete score as it was recorded to compare with the movie. The (awful) OST only has parts of the score and I'd like to get to know it in complete form. We don't even have the cue and reel/part numbers (as far as I know) yet.
