    I didn't have it on CD or as a download. I listened to the clips and moved on.

    Can't really judge scores via soundclips.

    I disagree. And the music industry seems to agree with me or they would not use them.

    The Black Tulip - Christopher Young

    This is really impressive. Beautiful integration of Afghan ethnic instruments and voices with an orchestra.

    AARON ZIGMAN - for colored girls

    Surprisingly melodic violin soli lead this melancholic and dramatic score. Notable.
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.

    DAVID HIRSCHFELDER - Legend of The Guardian

    Pretty fun and adventurous orchestral score but i doubt how much of this i'll remember each time the cd stops playing.

    The choral parts and the main theme it's what I most remember of the score. Especially in Flight Home, The Boy Was Right, My Soldiers, My Sons and More Baggy Wrinkles.

    One of Basil's best, a gorgeous score.

    Listening to it right now, definitely an interesting case here.

  3. Is The Black Tulip going to be for general consumption at some point?

    NP : DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER - John Barry



    The expanded edition shows just what an excellent Bond score this is, brilliant stuff! punk cool

  4. NP: Defense Preparations - Saving Private Ryan (John Williams)

    Very cool. It has a calm-before-the-storm sense which I like.

    Tron: Legacy

    I just can't get enough of this, I can't count how many times I've played it this week. To me this is the greatest mix of electronics and orchestra ever concocted. The synth stuff is great, the orchestra even better and the join between them seamless!



    NP : TRON : LEGACY - Daft Punk



    What John said! beer punk

    I hope so. It's completely different from any other Young score (I would never have guessed it was by him) and will never be to everyone's taste, but I think it's really very beautiful.

    I like the violin bits (schmaltzy though they become at times) but find the jazz and occasional synth-action parts rather objectionable.

    NP: The Four Feathers - James Horner

    Some fantastic action material and one of my favourite Horner finales. Unfortunately it's an obnoxiously long album and the abrasive ethnic vocals make it a little impenetrable.
  5. Are the ethnic vocals you mention mixed in with the highlight tracks?

    Yes, to an extent. Like many things they're best enjoyed in moderation!
  6. DAYS OF THUNDER - HANS ZIMMER

    Fun. Rock. Simplistic yet catchy tunes. Nothing more is needed for me to enjoy this.

    I agree with this. I love some of Horner's uber-long albums but this one is a real struggle.

    Not The Mahdi? My favourite cue and one where Horner pulls out all of the stops. punk

    For an uber-long album this one goes by very fast actually. But that's because I love The Four Feathers.

    NP: Flesh + Blood - Basil Poledouris

    The new Intrada release. Sound quality is brilliant and a monumental improvement on the Prometheus release.
  10. THE PATRIOT - JOHN WILLIAMS

    Great themes, big drums, nice fanfares, beautiful interludes, all are present. Williams in top form, a clear nod to his Star Wars era.

    I agree. 'The Mahdi' is a great cue. One of those Horner cues; one that I could listen again and again. Same goes for the last three cues of the album, 'Ethne's Feather' - 'Ghost Of Serenity' - 'A Coward No Longer'.
    Anything with an orchestra or with a choir....at some point will reach you

    NP : Resident Evil 5 - Kota Suzuki , Wataru Hokoyama

    Since I'm playing this awesome game at the moment I was on the hunt for the score as well .
    This game soundtrack comprises of 3 CD's and has 86 tracks . I'm listening to the first one at the moment .
    Lots of athmospheric , eerie stuff combined with action cues and some ethnic sounds as well .
    Some of my favourite tracks of this first CD are Majini II , An Emergency (this tracks has some Horner 'Aliens' influences) , Executioner , The Crisis / Reinforcements , Burning With Anger . Gonna listen to the other 2 CD's later on . Maybe 86 tracks is a bit much but I'm shure you can pick your own favourites and make your own playlist ...
