    NP: COSMOS - VOLUME 3 (Alan Silvestri)

    There's quite a bit of good stuff here and on all of the volumes (especially the electronic stuff), although I find it rather disappointing overall. Lots of directionless orchestral music that has great 'sound', but not that much structure or striking thematic material.
    I am extremely serious.
  1. NP: The Last Unicorn (1982) - Jimmy Webb / America

    One of my oldest CDs, one of my favourite scores from an animated picture.

    Bach's music is vibrant and inspired.

    Can't remember the score, but the film is one of my earliest cinemagoing experiences. Can't remember much of it now. I have a German girlfriend who loves this film (and song); it's pretty big in Germany, isn't it?

  2. It is, relatively speaking. It airs on TV once a year. I think it's a nice adventurous film for kids.

    Never expected to like it. The combination of Desplat (which I generally dislike) and horror stuff (which I generally dislike) is not the best.

    That being said, I have high hopes for the film itself.

    There's a lot to digest, but that's far from a complaint given how good it is. Sounds like Arnold/Dodd in places.

    Yeah, it has some of that BLARING that I don't much like but on the whole I was impressed. Dare I say there was a touch of Goldsmith here and there.

    Not as good as Delerue's, obviously, but still a chockful of elegant charm.

    Godzilla - Alexandre Desplat

    I can't get enough of this. I imagine this very dark approach may disappoint some, but I'm loving this one. Play this one LOUD.

    Questa Specie d'Amore - Ennio Morricone

    An outstanding piece of work, one of the most beautiful film scores I've ever heard.

    I love it when Desplat does action. How does it compare with the original Ifukube score?

    The brass can be a tad over the top if that's what you mean by "BLARING" but it sure is a hell of a good listen. One of my favorite wildlife scores!

    It doesn't.
    The closest Desplat comes to a nod to the big G's origins is by the use of taiko drums.
    But it's a great score with a great many horns and trombones thunderously announcing the doom of a zillion-feet radioactive dragon coming to call (even if I would bave liked the material to have been more thematic).

    Spot on what I meant. Aside from a few cringy blasts I liked it a lot.

  8. NP: Kafka (Martinez)

    I've had this for years without actually listening to it... some nice stuff. There's a theme in there that's kind of halfway between The Third Man and Steve Reich.

    Would that be 'The Third Reich', then?

    Sounds intriguing....I haven't heard that one yet.

    Charade - Henry Mancini

    No idea what I was thinking when I bought this. One of the worst scores I've ever heard - basically an hour of very badly dated lounge/source music. Beyond awful.



    Now onto Lord of Illusions - Simon Boswell

    Wonderfully dark and ominous. One of my favourite horror scores. Love 'Swann's Last Act' especially.
