I wonder why nobody mentioned anything yet regarding the new Tyler score" The Lazarus Project" I bought that one a couple of days ago, and its a nice little hypnotic score.
Yes, it's very nice indeed. I wrote my review of it yesterday (so far unpublished) and "hypnotic" is a word I certainly used! -

Not a score you can really appreciate with 30 sec clips Alan. As James says, hypnotic and very different than the usual Tyler actioneer.Anything with an orchestra or with a choir....at some point will reach you -

It's hypnotic. It's moody, it's drony at places; lots of other composers do it, some even better (David Julyan for one and Cliff Martinez's stuff which is ages better). Why should i pay particular attention to Tyler's?Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

I much prefer it to either of those composer's equivalents, though I know that places me in the minority. -

We have a showbusiness program here, they were doing a piece on the premiere of the Fast & Furious movie, during the interviews they showed brief snippets of the movie
And guess what? Tyler's music sounded like everything he's ever done beforewaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!! Where's my nut? arrrghhhhhhh -

I think Tyler is capable of pretty decent quality scoring, but he's choosing crappy projects with very little time to do them. Because Tyler is no Goldsmith, he needs a lot of time and artistic input from the director to be able to produce something genuinely decent.
Perhaps when he slows down a bit, he'll do something more worthwhile? -

Even Varese seems to agree:
Brian Tyler, who composed the best score of the franchise for Tokyo Drift, returns to supercharge this latest model.
Are they secretly saying Fast & Furious is inferior to Tokyo Drift? -

Yeah; we HAVE to listen to Varese's score descriptions 'cause they've been so spot-on latelyLove Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

To be honest, they only put stupid descriptions on for scores that they know aren't that special. Look at the Lost one, it's just "Michael Giacchino's brilliant soundtrack." No cheese, whatsoever! -

Ah, back to the Varese descriptions. I know it falls on deaf ears, but ask yourself what you would write about an average score if you were a record company. "Brian Tyler's score sounds like all his others and the album's 45 minutes too long" wouldn't be a big seller, probably. -

Nothing. Just tracklisting, movie description, release dates, sound clips. Save some dignity. I hate it when labels underestimate people's I.Q and tastes; we aren't friggin stupid and we have ears you know. Same goes for Cinemedia's promos.Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

Well, yeah, but as I've said before, the PR isn't really directed towards the likes of you and me. -

Exactly. Most of us here will know whether or not to buy a soundtrack depending on composer, tracklisting and movie it's associated with. We don't need to know if it's "apocalyptic" or "striking and exotic". That just sounds cheesy (let alone it being completely wrong). At least with the Lost albums they've just put "brilliant score" etc.
Trying to stay with the cool kids. -

I can't afford to buy as much music as I'd like and I have to use that initial impression from clips as part of my decision-making. I'm sure that some good music is going to be passed on by this selection process - but what I don't know I won't miss...unless everyone keeps singing praises for this CD.

There was not much (or perhaps no) ethnic elements in Dragonball. Was that intentional? -
- CommentTimeMar 22nd 2009
Perhaps. I was actually surprised as I expected it to incorporate quite some ethnic stuff. -

You are so right Alan; sometimes you have to choose, not possible to buy ALL the music one would like. The comment was more orientated to something like "when you can afford it, give it a try"Anything with an orchestra or with a choir....at some point will reach you -
