NP: KING OF THIEVES - Benjamin Wallfisch
Wallfisch said he had great fun on this paying homage to some of his favourite composers such as John Barry, Henry Mancini and Lalo Schifrin and it shows. This score is snazzy and a lot of fun, I particularly loved the jazzed up version of Tchaikovsky's Sugar Plum Fairy.On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -

I like even the chirping. Et les oiseaux chantent.
VolkerBach's music is vibrant and inspired. -

SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY - JOHN POWELL
So it’s been about a month since I managed to ween myself off this but I re-watched the film on a home entertainment platform last night (score sadly not as obvious in this mix) and had to visit the CD again.
It gets better with every listen. Powell is one talented mother. -

LINCOLN - JOHN WILLIAMS
Perfect for a lazy Sunday evening. Soothing Americana to the max.
There were reviews of the film at the time of its release which complained that the score is too sentimental. Bullshit. I’m just grateful that music such as this can be written for a mainstream period drama today. -

NP: WELCOME HOME, ROXY CARMICHAEL (Thomas Newman)
God, I love Newman's 80s synth scores (although this is 1990, stricty speaking).I am extremely serious. -

I've been on a self imposed Star Wars sabbatical since I saw Solo in the cinema. No music, no films, no web sites, no books. It will end, when Solo is released on BluRay next week.

It's Spielberg, of course it's sentimental. But like you, I'm glad of it - - that's a wonderful score. I even like the source music tracks. Great album. -

NP: THE LIGHTKEEPERS (Pinar Toprak)
Slow-moving and beautiful -- just what I like these days (although perhaps a bit too much 'mickey mousing' at times; lots of start/stop chord changes). Pinar hasn't really done a weak score yet, has she?I am extremely serious. -

I'm NOT a fan of her work on Krypton. That sound just isn't her.

JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH - ANDREW LOCKINGTON
While still firmly a ‘middle ground’ composer, the guy is capable. I do hope he gets to stretch his muscles on something with merit not too far in the future. -

That second track takes the shine off the album/score though.The views expressed in this post are entirely my own and do not reflect the opinions of maintitles.net, or for that matter, anyone else. http://www.racksandtags.com/falkirkbairn -

I love that track. Unusual sounds and approach. The album is constantly pulled between the more experimental and the more blissful, which I think provides a great dynamic.I am extremely serious. -

It's such a shame because it's the type of show that cries out for bold scoring and instead, she's asked to deliver droning sound design. -

He, he...I’m far more open to Desplat than I am Giacchino. He actually has a handful of scores I enjoy. And I’m keen to explore more. But my general criticism stands.I am extremely serious. -

NP: THE LOVELY BONES (Brian Eno)
I love the film and score, but the original album had too little Eno and this expanded...uhm "score promo" has too much (a whopping 1 hour 45 minutes!). I need to set aside some time in order to whittle this down to a proper 50-minute album or something.I am extremely serious. -

Barry's "action"/suspense music still irks me after all these years, but the lusher, romantic -- even choral -- stuff is superb.I am extremely serious. -

NP: NATE AND HAYES (Trevor Jones)
Weird that I haven't checked out this before now. Something I'd be all over in my 20s -- and can still enjoy (even if I've veered somewhat away from this type of symphonic action scores in recent years).I am extremely serious. -

Beautiful score, although I wonder why Bernstein insisted on always using the Ondes Martenot all over the place.I am extremely serious.
