j39m 75 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 I'm asking after this section from the TLJ OST (cut from the film), around the 3-minute mark of the first track. (See also: crumbs' excellent reassembly of the sequence, restoring the music.) It's the Resistance motif cast into a fresh meter not heard in TFA. I hear this: But I'm not good at counting, so I'm not sure. Cast a vote, help me out? EDIT: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j39m 75 Posted November 22, 2022 Author Share Posted November 22, 2022 Thank you for sharing! Those are some awfully specific triplets. When you say "actually written," do you mean that if I burgled JoAnn Kane, this is what I would find? EDIT: and if you just did this by ear, please share your secrets to success Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask a bunch of professional musicians to transcribe this and I bet you half of them will get it wrong. j39m 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still — even if it's solidly 3/4 throughout, it's an extraordinary shake-up, more distinctive than most of the other uses of the motif in TLJ. (And the other uses don't slouch.)
