Cinematic Sound Radio - Latest Update: NATIONAL FILM SCORE DAY!

Loving all the shows, lately, Erik. Thanks so much for all the time and effort you've put into these!

Yeah, that seems to have been a problem for you for a long time.

So...are you up on a new one now?

UPDATE: November 8, 2012

MAIN TITLES
GUEST HOST: Joshua Hoppman

Cinematic Sound is proud to welcome yet another guest host into the fold. Born in 1992, Joshua Hoppman has always had a passion for great movies, independent filmmaking and listening to movie soundtracks. Movie scores have always been one of Joshua’s favorite aspects of films and started collecting soundtracks in 2008. He’s been an avid collector since. Some of his favorite film composers include James Horner, Mark McKenzie, Harry Gregson-Williams, and Richard Harvey. If he’s not discussing or listening to a recent movie score he can be found reading or filming.

Joshua’s first episode, hopefully one of many, is dedicated to the main title cue featuring music from ROBIN HOOD: PRINCE OF THIEVES (Kamen), TRINITY AND BEYOND: THE ATOMIC BOMB MOVIE (Stromberg), RED RIVER (Tiomkin), HARD RAIN (Young), THE MAN FROM SNOWY RIVER (Roland), MOUSEHUNT (Silvestri), LEFT BEHIND (Covell) and many, many more.

THE BEST SCORES OF 2012

#8 METSAN TARINA by Panu Aaltio

Panu Aaltio’s score to the Finnish documentary feature METSAN TARINA (A TALE OF A FOREST) is only the second documentary score in the 16 year history of Cinematic Sound Radio to enter a year end best of chart. The score, like the film, is a wondrous journey full of lush themes, ethereal beauty, childlike playfulness, majestic fanfares and fluttering woodwinds. And the last track in this suite, “A Forest Adventure ” is the feel good cue of 2012.

#7 LIFE OF PI by Mychael Danna

Canadian composer and the newest Golden Globe award winner Mychael Danna’s score to Ang Lee’s spectacular film, LIFE OF PI, enters in at number 7. LIFE OF PI marks the third collaboration between Danna and director Lee. The music, in the composer’s words, “guides viewers by means of emotions through a film that raises big philosophical and religious questions.” Danna’s unique blend of western scoring and ethnic instrumentation makes this score one of the most inspirational and hypnotic listens of 2012.

THE BEST SCORES OF 2012
#6 PRICELESS by Naoki Sato

Music from the Japanese TV series PRICELESS by Naoki Sato enters the countdown in at number 6. This bizarre show tells the tale of a businessman who looses everything and must learn from two small boys how eat and live without money. Sato’s score is magical and lush with lyrical sing-song like themes that are ridiculously over the top. There’s love themes, heroic themes and thrilling action music. It’s just a feel good, old fashioned score performed by a massive symphony orchestra and chorus.

THE BEST SCORES OF 2012

#4 LINCOLN by John Williams

The number 4 is John Williams’ music from Steven Spielberg’s, LINCOLN. Williams’ brilliantly spotted score is uncharacteristically restrained. Drawing inspiration from Aaron Copland and Williams’ own compositions for SAVING PRIVATE RYAN, JFK and THE PATRIOT, Williams score is melodic, dramatic, noble – at times playful – and very delicate. Superbly performed by renowned Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Chicago Symphony Chorus, Williams music hits all the right notes. This is a score the deserves your undivided attention.

#3 THERE BE DRAGONS by Robert Folk

The number 3 score of 2012 is Robert Folk’s replacement score for Roland Joffe’s Spanish Civil War epic, THERE BE DRAGONS. Stephen Warbeck wrote an original score for the first cut of the film in 2011 but when Roland Joffe recut the film in the fall of 2011 he commissioned a new score to be written. Robert Folk was hired and provided the film with an old school, traditional, multi-thematic symphonic sound that was inspired by some of the greatest scores in film music history.

It doesn't cost me much. Just hosting, which I split with a good friend of mine. It's under $100 annually.
