    Damn I expected that guy would give me a huge screaming 'NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooo', alas it remained an anticlimactic 'No'. slant

    I remember this from the Commodore Amiga 500 days, with a program which would just say out loud what you typed in. I was more than a little amazed by such a technological wonder!

    Nowadays... good little gimmick for translating Jordi's posts tongue biggrin I nearly understood the meaning behind it.

    NP:Total Recall

    70 minutes of epic and loud action music.

    One of the most popular themes, for one of his most popular and acclamaited movie.

    A memorable theme (yes, even if Poledouris composed it some years ago), complex and addictive action music, techno creating fa futuristic touch, and the synthetiser for create a great soundscape.

    Can ask for more? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooo

    NP : THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN - Elmer Bernstein



    If you need an explanation of this you need your head examined to discover if you really are a fan of film music.

    NP: Memories of Me - Georges Delerue

    Nothing really special. For those that have the 7 minute suite from the Varese London Sessions albums or the Great Composers album then you pretty much have the best of the best. Basically it's a light and fluffy jazz score with an excerpt of Beethoven's 9th and a few Delerue patented pull-at-the-heart-string cues. A nice album but not one that I will be return to often.

    The Tudors 2 - Trevor Morris

    I want this guy to get more work or score more movies. He has such an interesting voice. The score's juxtaposition of organic and synthetic sounds is interesting. Sure, he uses a similar palette of samples like Zimmer, but the result, as a whole, is very unique.

    NP: The Promise - Klaus Badelt

    Haven't listened to this in a while but it certainly is a very enjoyable score. Shame we've not heard anything remotely as good from him since.

    cool
  1. NP: Mom and Dad save the World (Jerry Goldsmith)

    I know, hell no is this his best or even his better entries

    but you have to admit that even in lesser ways, Goldsmith showed an abundance of wit and creativity

    Heya bro, Goldsmith at his worst is miles better than those wannabe's that roam the film score plains these days.

    And to make you slightly jealous...

    Now enjoying the hell out of and feeling immense satisfaction by listening to:

    Medal of Honor: Frontline (Michael Giacchino)

    This remains my most-loved Giacchino to date. The recording is truly FANTASTIC (the brass... the strings... the choir... the percussion... the boy soprano... the themes... the explosive action). It all touches me in my very soul and gets my heart racing every time the action cues start and Giacchino shows his immense talent to build his music to the most satisfying heights. I once called him the new John Williams, I'm still confident he has it in him to become just as legendary, judging by the complexity of the music on offer here.

    FRONTLINE IS FRAKKING WARRIFIC !!!!

    I was playing: waterworld (JNH)

    Why anyone didn't tell me how good this score is???

    NP:The Last Samurai (Zimmer)

    The first 6 tracks are terrific. Some of the best stuff by Zimmer. The rest of the tracks are really very, very irregular.

    PS: When the Red Warrior theme appears in " a way of life" is perfect. Taka (the japan girl) sees the ghost of his dead husband in Algren's character. So this synth sound is just perfect.

    NP: The Essential Maurice Jarre Film Music Collection - Maurice Jarre

    Ever since his passing I've been listening to more of the man's music than ever before... and it's a shame that I didn't really appreciate his music until his passing. I've always ignored it and I can't give a logical explanation as to why. He writes music just the way I like it. For the most part his music is purely orchestral, melodic and has a distinct musical style. I think my hesitation came from my first experiences with Jarre's music... his experimental 80's synth scores.

    While the music in Witness, Dead Poet's Society, Enemy Mine and Ghost is good, it was the synth sound - that processed orchestral sound - that turned me off. Even though later on when I became familiar with Jarre's great works - Lawrence, Zhivago, etc - I still couldn't get the icky sounds of those terribly dated 80's scores out of my head.

    Well, now that I've matured as a listener... at least I think I have since then... I'm quickly becoming a big fan of Jarre's and have become more and more fascinated with his music. So much so that I've just turned to a City of Prague recording; The Essential Maurice Jarre Film Music Collection to find more Jarre gems that I've never really paid much attention to. Jesus of Nazareth, The Fixer, Fatal Attraction, The Year of Living Dangerously (had no idea this score was this good), Red Sun, etc. This folks is me falling in love!

    -Erik-


    You couldn't have said this at a better time. Just earlier today, I checked this out from the library, prior to reading your comment. Pretty neat coincidence.

    One of Horner's best early scores, this is his style I like! Really fun score that's a great listening experience!


    One of my favorite Horner scores. His score for this, along with The Land Before Time, shows how capable he is at composing scores for animated films. I hope he gets the chance to compose music for another one.

    It's a film music geek trend; everything that has electronics in it, is instantly called 'techno'. Shows the general irrelevance of our genre towards other musical genres...and the geekiness of some people (i am not referring to Jordi).
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.
