  1. NP: Addio, Fratello Crudele - Ennio Morricone

    I'd never really heard of this until tonight (though the main theme IS familiar from somewhere) and I'm thinking how I could have missed such a wonderful theme and (so far) wonderful score. I've just listened to "Frate Bonaventura" which is a stunning 9-minute piece that's another example of Dies Irae being featured in a film score.

    Dark, brooding and very emotional (the latter based around that lovely theme) this is already becoming a firm Morricone favourite with me.

    NP: Fantastic Mr. Fox - Additional Music Itunes Release

    First listen. I really enjoy its quirkiness. Especially the train theme and the surprisingly mystical music for the wolf. And I love the Ennio Morricone references.

  2. NP: Robin Hood (Marc Streitenfeld)

    I don't know what surprises me more - that a Marc Streitenfeld score has me hitting repeat at the end of the album, or that a Hans Zimmer imitation score has me hitting repeat at the end of the album. Either way, I'm having fun.

  3. BSG Season 2 - Bear McCreary

    A good listen, it's really growing into something awesome. The musical styles are more varied (that electric bass is stunning), the repetitive taiko drumming is reduced a lot, a lot of the cues are more fleshed out and more interesting as a result. In short Bear's done good with this one. punk

    Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire - Joel McNeely

    Utter brilliance. There's not a minute on this disc I think is below anything quality-wise that John himself has written. The rousing fanfares, the moody softer material, the new themes and rhythmic parts remain fantastic. In short this score absolutely ROCKS. Highest possible rating from me, a true Star Wars inspired score. punk punk

    La Jeune Fille et les Loups - Armand Amar

    This has been my favourite Amar so far since it doesn't have those ethnic wailings and chantings he likes to include in all of his scores.
    It is very relaxing, varied and pleasant to listen.

    STEVE JABLONSKY - d wars

    There's something in his epic/dramatic music like this, the Island and Transformes which hits all the right buttons, no matter how cliched and unoriginal. For one, it's very well done, no annoying electric guitar crap, just big bold themes, bigger than life RC choir, long chords, the trademarked dense rhythms all over the place, love it.

    You inspired me to play:

    STEVE JABLONSKY - Gears of War 2

    What would RC sound like if they continued to their initial plan and never dwell into cheap and noisy walls of electric guitars and if they haven't gotten rid of the actual themes. Just play the 2nd track, "Hope runs deep" loud; it all speaks for itself! punk

    Is it as good a Kevin Riepl's score to the first game?

    Different styles. I'd say as good, but yeah, different. The first one's a bit more varied whilst 2nd is good ol'fashioned RC-isms, whatever this implies.

    Listened to a couple cues from his rejected score to the second game, and they were interesting (didn't finish listening to the rest).

    STEVE JABLONSKY - steamboy

    I haven't played it for years and revisited just now. Wow, i remember this to be much much better back then; i thought to myself, is this his "best" score to date? Definitely not if you ask me now.
