    NP : DUNE - Toto



    Excellent score, easily the best of all the Dune scores.


    In fairness, it doesn't have much competition!

    NP : Resident Evil - Marilyn Manson

    You have to be in the mood for this one but I find it very athmospheric and it does the job perfectly in the movie ...


    Is this the "band soundtrack" + 4 score tracks by Marilyn Manson or is there a score soundtrack out there? If I remember correctly the score was a collaboration between Marilyn Manson and Marco Beltrami.

    Indeed! Tyler's score is so... :whispers: overrated!

    Have you ever heard LITTLE BUDDHA or THE SHELTERING SKY?


    Yes, but only some tracks on his compilation albums.
    I love his theme (song) for a movie called Poppoya (though he didn't score it). And Merry Christmas Mr.Lawrence is my favorite, which I've heard on the local radio several times, though at first didn't know it's a film score!

    Also I recently found myself liking his non-film music works. Some are a little too experimental, but I like the addictive Grasshoppers and a short piece called "The day a gorilla gives me a banana" biggrin

    Well, you have me intrigued and I'll have to listen to those non film works. beer

    As regards Little Buddha and Sheltering Sky I seriously recommend you seek them out, both are fantastic and varied scores, particularly Buddha.

    Yeap! Apart from one or two tracks that I really like it's very generic and uninteresting.

    Symphonic adventure score, thematic and highly enjoyable. Not very original but huge fun and great sound.

    It has a certain style that you really need to be in the mood for where you don't expect any musical action or surprises. Really for John Barry purists/completists more than anything.

    I think you mean 'stirring'. 'Heartwarming' is pretty much the domain of the 'pleasant, uplifting' sort of stuff. wink

    IT's got some very good action cues, fun. There's a lot of mickey mousing and forgettable generic stuff but which modern score that sound like that doesn't?

    The symphonic kind of mickey mousing that tries to be amusing and Williams-esque / Goldsmith-ish at the same time; the worst kind for me wink But the opening cue and the action pieces are quite entertaining.
