NP: BRØRNE LØVEHJERTE [THE BROTHERS LIONHEART] (Eirik Myhr)
Our own Eirik's theatre score from last year -- some beautiful textures and melancholy here. This didn't get the attention it deserved from the film music crowd, I think. Check it out on Spotify!I am extremely serious. -

Requiem Rutter
Listening to this after seeing it performed in Bristol last night, an incredibly beautiful piece of work I hadn't been familiar with. I love the solos, both vocal and instrumental. Any recommendations for other Rutter works I should check out? -

NP: Sundown Chronicles (2016) - Maximilien Mathevon
Maximilien's recent electronic album. This is nice and easy on the ear and a major tribute to 70s electronica. Albums such like this, reprising the style of electronic music from ca. 1974-1985, seem to pop up everywhere right now. If you call them epigonic or renaissance depends on your perception.
Well, this album doesn't break any new ground but all connoisseurs of that style of electronic music should check it out.

Yeah, I've spun it a few times (in fact, it's playing right now). I like it too, just as I do Max's previous albums OUTSIDE and VACUUM LOGIC. Very JMJ with some elements of TD.I am extremely serious. -

I find it more specifically FQY, with a very clear dash of GLURPF and a distinct hint of BLOPDUT.

NP: RABBIT & ROGUE (Danny Elfman)
Fine ballet score, although he's basically whipping up all his post-Sereneda Schizophrana stylings in a new fashion (a bit more outrovert, and a bit less minimalist). Gets a bit intense as it rolls along, though.I am extremely serious. -

NP : FACE THE MUSIC - Electric Light Orchestra
Such a great album.
It was this track FIRE ON HIGH which was on the b-side of the hit single Livin Thing that really turned me on to ELO, a combo of film music, The Beatles, Prog rock etc, utter brilliance.On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -
- CommentTimeDec 14th 2016
You and ELO ... I wouldn't have thought. Interesting, for me it's a "best-of" act, not a band that I have individual albums from.
