    NP: Gulliver's Travels - Henry Jackman

    First listen... shocked

    Lots and lots of fun in a Harry Gregson-Williams/Sinbad way! I'm five tracks in and if this holds up then I might need to tweak a little list I'm working on for my next radio show. Looking over my list now it looks like things are going to stay the same but this is really a solid effort and has a lot more personality and more substance than a lot of RC scores written these days!

    -Erik-


    Wait 'till you get to the later part of the album. It'll blow you away. Nothing RC-related smile
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.

    Exquisite scoring from one of the most worthwile film composers of our times.


    I agree, I Am Legend has all the great things from JNH: his strings writing, his beautiful piano, grandiose choir, a great theme.


    Too bad that most of the music has been cut out of the movie. I'm dying to watch the movie with the music restored, especially the impressive The Pier
  3. WORLD OF WARCRAFT: CATACLYSM - 5 DUDES

    Worth it for tracks 1 & 2 which do impress (a full 14 minutes still), after that the 'music' is all over the place without any sort of structure. This is a common thing with score releases of Blizzard-games. They wow you with an overture, than it all goes downhill with boring repetitive ambience that frankly I could compose as well. Though Starcraft II had more good moments than the opening track.

    Now The Scarlett Letter is a much more varied and gorgeous score than Wah Wah is, for me. And I completely love the choral rendition of Barber's Adagio for Strings.


    The Scarlet Letter = Dances with Wolves 2.0 (Not that that's a BAD thing).


    It's not as great as DWW but it's still a very very fine score.


    Maybe less repetitive than DWW (even with less themes).


    I think it's seriously repetitive. I could never tire of listening to Dances but do have a hard time getting through all of Scarlet, good though it is.

    Special note: I suspect that The Scarlet Letter is the most frequently mis-spelled film title on film music forums!

  10. NP: Death Eaters - Deathly Hallows (Desplat)

    I love how Desplat uses Voldemort-Death Eaters's theme in the muted trompets. Also thoses descending notes with the strings and chorus perfectly represents the Death Eaters. I hope that Desplat uses this theme in Part 2 [spoiler]during that added scene with Voldemort starting the Battle of Hogwarts with a series of explotions in the castle[/spoiler]

  21. NP: Snape & The Unbreakable Vow - Nicholas Hooper (Half-Blood Prince)

    This is one of my favorite cues of the score (which is a little bit underrated, IMHO). Very dark and subtle. The last half of the cue with the strings and celesta is very dark, but still magical

    The Dig - Michael Land

    One of the best video game scores ever. I really wish that someone would record this with a real orchestra, it would sound even better.

    What did you think? I love the film, and the music works really well in it, but I can't imagine it being terribly great on its own. In the film his credit comes up as "Chris Young" if I remember correctly.

    I don't know, I've gotten used to the sound over the years. I like it as it is. But out of sheer curiosity, well yeah I'd welcome a real live recording.

    You sir are of course wrong in your assessment that this is a sleep-inducing film... Weren't you at least kept awake by Will Smith's performance? Oh, wait that's right, you don't like the guy... Sorry for that. sad

    I don't have a problem with the guy, i won't be jizzing over him like others seem to, but i did enjoy some of his more subtle and serious performances like the pursuit of happyness and seven pounds. I found I AM LEGEND very uninteresting to me as a concept ; i didn't have a problem with Will smith in this one. But of course there's the stuff like ID4 or wild wild west (and many others) that make me want to kick the tv. But wait, why are you asking me the same stuff all over again? There's a function in our brains called "ignore" you know wink

  28. Well, I was on repeat that moment mate... I must've pushed the wrong button. I'll try to work on that. wink
