    You are priceless Thomas.


    Where are you getting these Morricone scores, btw? I bought so many of them some years back and now I'm saturated and broke.


    let's say I got all of these from sources that everyone uses tongue


    Shops?

    I love Ninfa Plebea - wonderful album. Haven't listened to it for years.

    yes, a couple of his more suspense cues (albeit very likeable)
    soft romantic theme, but nothing special (if you heard many Morricone's already)

    It's times like this when you need plindboe to poke his head into the Now Playing thread. I've never heard Butterfly.

    WP: THIRTEEN DAYS - Trevor Jones
    Really good and grand orchestral score that brings out the best of Jones' dark, yet at turns romantic style. As such, it's a better balanced affair than his dark and brooding Dark City or other bombastic works, even though it does contain similair heavy action stuff. Once again, I fell in love with his signature sound; even though he tends to repeat himself on several occasions, it's got such a great effect that I don't really mind. The only minor quible is the lack of a strong theme, which Jones normally excels in, yet it certainly suits this particulair score to downplay it on that level. Very good stuff.

    Love it! That main theme is so irresistibly infectious!
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.
  12. Got and popped in the Intrada "Something Wicked This Way Comes". Going to have to whip out the bootleg 14 track, and LaserDisc isolated score to see what's what; three years ago I could have done it easily, but the whole score has fallen by the way side in these passed years as I got cuahgt up repeatedly playing certain releases ("Capricorn One", "Baby: Secret of the Lost Legend", "CHiPs" [V1]).


    Ahhh, LaserDisc -- the failed medium I rightfully ignored when new.

    Really? confused Hmm... got to listen to it again, then? I did get a part of the main theme in my head afterwards (it certainly is a gorgeous melody), but forgot it pretty quickly. I though it lacked a memorable theme on purpous, 'cause of the true-ness of the historical event, 'n such.

    You're kidding about the movie, right? biggrin
    If I remember right Butterfly is one of the moody underscores. Ninfa is much better--a bit like Malena though I don't remember anything about the tension cues.
    Ennio was nominated for a Golden Globe and a Razzie for Butterfly lol

    Black Hawk Down - Hans Zimmer

    In the mood for something vicious, and this fits the bill eminently.
    Barra Barra may be the nastiest thing Zimmer's ever done.
    And I love it.

  16. Except that the track isn't by Zimmer. It's a song.

    All sarcasm aside, the lyrics are written by Rachid whatsisface (it's originally a poem, I think?), but the music is very much Zimmer's (and co).

    crazy "Poisoned Chalice" is by far better than the overrated and out of place Harvey's piece. (And it's the second best piece Zimmer has ever composed too.)

    Classic Horner!

    So rich. So dark. Got to be good for you! cool


    dude are you reading this? wink


    shocked shocked shocked

    That's it!!! I'm ordering this now.

    The bootleg I have must be something else entirely!! It must be !!!!

    Speed Racer (Michael Giacchino)

    I'll just say that I enjoy the movie more than the music alone, the score is just too chaotic for my taste... I have a hard time trying to analyze it and making sense of it, where's the structure in this? I can hear a theme once in a while but I simply cannot get into this. Oh well, I'm gonna go order Star Trek now. cheesy

    Hmmm... I guess "written by" might mean "composed by"?
    The liner notes aren't completely clear.

    There's a credit "written by Rachid Taha and Steve Hillage".

    But there's also a credit "Music composed by Hans Zimmer", with an additional note that Rachid Taha is a "featured vocalist" on the album, suggesting that the credits for songs/score aren't separately denoted.

    I'm confused. confused ( <- See?)

    Not too easy to find, but Franzie's right (sorry Pawel shame ) : the first mention I can find of the song is on Taha's own album Made In Medina from 2000 (with Black Hawk Down clocking in a year later).

  27. Mind you... it still works very well in the context of the BHD album. smile

    My own favourite sound on that album is 'Still'. That particular thing Zimmer does with the lean string arrangement underneath the voice - haunting is not too cliched a word for it.

    NP: Alexandria (Sigle)

    Speaking of haunting. Russians really know how to move the soul.

    I never saw the attraction of the Harvey piece either. Think there are several cues by Zimmer on that album that are superior.

  30. I think the attraction, except it being a really good piece, is that it comes right after the tour-de-force that Chevaliers de Sangreal is, so it really calms the music down and works as a soothing experience.
