Miz 139 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I hope there's decent game material for him to work with and score. I'm certainly more interested in game-scores than games nowadays. This one might sound frantic given the nature of the game's combat, but the score could easily fail to cohere like CoD does. Who knows. I look forward to anything Giacchino is working on - he rarely stays in a comfort zone, and that's something you appreciate in any artist or composer.Having heard The Lost World score of his, I find it quite immature (having regressed to it having first heard his recent output) and it does sound like it could be sequenced to just as high-quality sound nowadays, but that doesn't take away from his achievement. I can certainly hear it paving the way for scores like SWON (pretty much my favourite album of all time), rather than the Medal of Honor series.

Miz 139 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Hey Erik, just like to say I've only just realised it's you who produces the Cinematic Sound show I came across lately. Good work! I've particularly been enjoying the Gerdhart pieces. I take it Geocities doesn't accomodate a comprehensive archive of shows? I can't believe you've been doing it so long.

Any chance of some eclectic composer-themed shows in future?Well, Geocities only hosts the site. The rest... graphics and audio come from my "outside" account. I have all the space in the world but I've never achieved the programs. Actually, I've never even thought about relocating my entire site to Netfirms. Anyway, I just felt that once a new show is uploaded the other one just goes away. Actually, I've never really looked into the copyright issues that might come up achieving a program. At the moment there are four shows on the main page. 2 get rotated regularly (New releases and such) and 2 stay up for a while (best of shows). The best of shows are going to be coming down soon and it their place with be the Franz Waxman and Milkos Rozsa programs I'm currently working on. Those shows will stay up for a while.As for eclectic composer themed shows... what do you have in mind?-Erik- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 That's a long tracklist for a Giacchino score. Lots of shorter cues then... That possibly suggests more Mickey Mousing than what we're used to from him, though I'm only speculating here. It is animated though, and in a very different vein from "The Incredibles".

Alright,now I'm pretty well equipped Giacchino wise.Seems to be the least worse option as far as new composers go. Yes, he is quite good. Certainly harmoically more interesting than many others. It's also nice to hear his devlopment, from his terrific MoH scores, which are very Williams-esque, to a more unique style in Lost. And, as usual, I disagree with the phrasing 'least worst'. He is a very interesting talent. There are several others that are very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 24, 2007 Author Share Posted June 24, 2007 I'm still amazed how a composer can be called brilliant, on the basis of a few animated scores, 2 TV shows and a handfull of computer games.The test I use to determine is a composer is great has nothing to do with nailbiting action music, stunning suspense or a deftness for comedy cues.Can a composer move me, can he put just a little bit of water into my eyes, can he touch my heart?Only then am I prepared to call a composer great.So far nothing I've heard from Giapooppie suggest to me that he can stomp with the big dawgs like Williams, Goldsmith, Shore, Herrmann or Horner.

Morlock 11 Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 His writing is very interesting, and very listenable. Just listening to his MoH scores, I get the sense that this is someone who knows how to use an orchestra. He knows melody, he knows what to do with it, he has interesting and varied orchestration, making a 7 minute theme and repetition highly listenable. I haven't heard any particular work that is great (I am not a fan of MI:3. Elfman did it so much better.), but I think he has the technical skill to do write some great scores.

Morlock 11 Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 It's not film music's fault that people here have yet to learn the real qualities of the Desplats, Marrianellis, Powells, Dannas (though hardly newcomers) and others. And, BTW, the only similarity between Powell and Ottman is their age group and skin color. Fine- hair color, too. And that they both have been spotted writing terrific film scores (Not recently for Ottman...but Incognito is one terrific score, for on). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morlock 11 Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 No, it does not. But it means that should he ever truely master composing music, he'll know how to put the notes together in the way that they serves them best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
