    Guild Wars: Eye of the North is fantastic! His Harry Potter scores are brilliant. I love his epic score for IL-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey. Lots of exciting stuff in those scores.

  2. Yes, his IL-2 score is also worth a listen.

    Am I the only person in the world who doesn't like Soule's music at all? I tried two scores from him, among them Oblivion, but I turned it off half-way. He didn't impress me at all!


    I can't think of an album by him that I liked in its entirety either, but his title theme cues are usually absolutely great. A playlist of such cues from his entire works might give you a completely different image of the man's music than going through each of his albums in full. It sure did for me! smile

    I remember playing the first IL-2 Sturmovik and that had cheesy synthy music, probably why I never bothered to check out Birds of Prey.

    Thanks for the heads-up.

    Birds of Prey is wonderful featuring Soule's incredible sample library (one of the very best in the business)

    Here is the "IL-2 March."

    And here is the epic "Overture" from Guild Wars: Eye of the North!

    And my favourite theme from the game - "Tome of Rubicon (Dwarf Theme)"

    This one kicks ass, too. "Under The Dark Span (Asura Theme)"

    I wasn't familiar with Birds of Prey but after a listen I can say that the march is really great, but that's about all that I find great about it. I think his more action oriented stuff really suffers from the sample libraries at times. It sounds a bit too artificial for lack of a better word. He perfected that approach for Skyrim, but that one is more about the ethereal soundscapes rather than the action music, as awesome as it sounds.

    I really like this overture he did for the game Prey. Love the finish of that cue.

  7. I found Soule's score for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim to be a bit too atmospheric/boring for the most part for me to praise it too much (goodness knows how people could listen to all the music that was available).

    But, having listened to some of his 4-CD set of music (over 3 hours in total) from Guild Wars 2, I think that this is going to be much more enjoyable. And maintains his strong music for the Guild Wars franchise.

    The music in GW2 is very effective, much more than I was expecting for an MMO. I wish he could get a bigger budget and ditch the synths but it was a big project, after all.

    I look forward to his Symphony No. 1, “The Northerner” (Opus 1) once it gets recorded and released!

    I'd be very interested in hearing that. Who's releasing it, naxos maybe?

    At this point, no idea!
  12. It will be a release of his own, I think.

    Actually, if enough funds come his way (which I trust will happen) he will be recording his Symphony at the recording facility Skywalker Sound no less! Hopefully in September.
    I know this because a friend of mine is one of the financial backers in the project.
    I have no doubt this will be a terrific piece of music!
  14. Here's some more on it:

    By the way, don't bother visiting his website. It used to be different, but not now -- now it's a large iamge with only one thing to click on, and that takes you to the agency site that represents him, and that site is jsut as worthless -- it's just a large background image of the composers they represent.
