    NP:Scorpion King (Debney)

    Dammed!

    I always feel atraction to listen this score. Orchestral power, electric guitars, Lisbeth Scott and an arabic sense. I'm always surprised in how few moments I really enjoy.

    the action stuff is a little disjointed (except for the last 2 tracks) and not enough thematic devolopment.

    I don't know if I llike Iron Man 2 or not, because it's not realeased yet.

    But I can say there are around 20 minutes of non-stop action music in Iron man that I enjoy a lot. With heavy use of electric guitars.
  4. So, let me see if I understand you well. You don't know this score, because its' not released and yet you know it? biggrin

    GRAEME REVELL - red planet

    Absolutely fantastic.


    I love it too.

    This new age style it's fantastic. I don't know if as score, but as album for sure.


    There's at least one fantastic cue in the film as they land on Mars that's missing from the album.

    Either way I'm in total agreement with both of you, it's a superb album.

    By the way....

    Am I the only one addicted to "monaco" stuff? Rourke's theme with chorus over the electric guitars is sooooooooooo cool!!! and while Debney's IM theme is rather bland and out of place, it has a really powerful version in this track too! (specially with this Conan/Total recall-esque percusion)

    In fact the main theme is so good that Otman re-used it for Xmen 2.

    No he didn't Jordi... Ottman, like Brian Tyler, only used the rhythm.

  17. Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures - Knut Avenstroup Haugen

    Absolutely wonderful, full of memorable melodies, sometimes a little similar in sound like what McCreary did for BSG. By Crom, this is a videogame score that isn't all droning synths or with lifeless structure. May the Gods feast upon this holy treasure.

    NP : ONE MILLION YEARS B.C. - Mario Nascimbene



    An incredible score that's part sound scape but with heavenly themes, truly AWESOME!

    I don't think any other score conjurs the fear and terror that must have been felt by our early fur clothed ancesters as they spent every day of their lives in mortal terror of the possibility of being eaten by a Dinosaur.

    NP:Chinatown (Goldsmith)

    My first listen, and probably my last.

    I enjoy it today because I'm still in this "noir" mood, but I guess tomorrow it we will pass.

    I will play next: Golden Compass (Desplat)

    It's not what you can expect for a fantasy score....it's like the "qualitè" version . Exquisite orchestrations, complex composition.... It's so rich that I always fins something new.

    It's not a score to play and enjoy everyday though...

    L.A confidential

    While Chinatown is more romantic (and probably the quintesential of Noir scores ) L.A condifential is Brutal.

    A mix between Goldsmith's 70's scores and Goldsmith's 90's percusion and electronics.

    "bloody Christmas" and "shoout" are specially impressive.

    in this "noir" mood im discovering a lot of good scores.

    I will play next : femme Fatale (sakamoto)

    cool

    *batteries not included - James Horner

    It's been a while since I last listened to this score. But it seems that as I get older I can make friends more with those swing tracks. Today I really enjoyed them! It's the second half of the album though that is really good in my opinion. You can spot many musical instances that Horner later developed in other scores.
    It's a feel-good album by Horner, a good way to start this rainy day.

    And don't forget Leonard Bernstein's definite noir score of On the Waterfront (known in form of an over 20-minute concert suite). It inspired both LA Confidential and Black Dahlia. That's why the action music in both scores is so based on timpani rhythms. Goldsmith also took the main LA Confidential theme almost verbatim from Bernstein's work.

    Thanks! I will listen that one too!

    Now It seems I have a Desplat mood...

    I was playing: New Moon

    The main theme is decent and elegant, but i don't think it's a touching enough to be a love theme, and it doesn't fit a vampire movie either.

    The rest is Desplat in Autopilot. But With that movie I didn't expect nothing better.

    NP: Birth

    Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Much better!

    Hypnotic!

    Oh, indeed, that score is pure bliss and we've been shouting about it since it came out in 08 if i recall correctly? It's actually stunning, much better than many of what is classified as film music these days.

    Word; guys like Marina and Schyman for instance, are doing wonders for this genre these days. Others should look and take lessons.
