    I listened to Inception but I think I heard a different cd than what a lot of people are describing above? I don't see why it is so different or more refined or ... It's cool music, but rather same-ish?

    Do I really have to listen to it again (well, except for the Journey to the Line with rock guitars at the end)?


    It's a great homage to decades' past; and it's very coherent, also on album, in huge difference to what regularly gets out in the medium these days.
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.

    Unless all you've been reading is Jordi's comments, from which, you'll think that two to three tracks are okay and you hate the whole score but might like it after seeing the movie though you still don't like the album.

    I think by now I've been through enough "summers with Jordi and Zimmer" to be able to discern truth from error... biggrin

    it is a good album. And it is good music. But I have the same problems when I notice too much influences from other composers in the music. And the Vangelis-like synths and "night at the opera" copy and paste distracts me from the listening experience.

    It's good. With some great pieces of music. But it's not Zimmer best score since the thin red line either.

    I'm so happy that Zimmer is having fun again composing scores....

    Angels And demons, The Dark Knight, Sherlock Holmes and Inception can't be more pure, inventive and!

    If that IS what Zimmer did (and it certainly sounds possible), that's friggin awesome. punk

    Indeed, it sounds incredible and if it's his thought, it's spot on. Otherwise the guy's just a conspiracy theory douche.

    Even if it wasn't intended by Zimmer, I think the guy deserves at least some merit for noticing it. I don't think he's a douche.

    It's not that similar anyway, anything you'll slow down chances are it'll probably sound like something else. I think if you go looking for this stuff and spend so much time for it, it's a bit pathetic. But it's just my opinion anyway.

    Hmm, I don't think it's one of those things you'd spend ages looking for; you'd probably need to know what you were looking for before you found it. dizzy

    Chances are he probably noticed it and decided to share his thoughts. I don't see what's wrong with that... after all, isn't that what we all do here?

    Well, it's quite easy. Both use a rhythm, and the one is faster than the other. So if you slow down the one rhythm, it becomes like the other rhythm.

    It's almost magic!

    On a side note, the word rhythm is a most difficult word to write! Just think of the foreigners!

    Constantly arguing about who copies who and who gets inspired by what instead of sitting back and enjoying the actual music, is pretty lame in the first place; it's the kind of discussions i can't really be bothered to read anymore and it what's starting to bother me in film score boards. Now, if you go further down the road and actually slow things down in order to track those, yes it's pretty lame in my books smile

    Actually I think he was making a point about how clever it is that Zimmer may have slowed down the source music and incorporated it into his own score. I agree with him. (Thankfully this guy is not Jordi.)

    Yeah, I'm fed up of Jordi too.

    But in this case, I think the guy is trying to make a genuinely worthy point. A little geeky perhaps, but so are we for discussing it on a forum.

    Right. So that is basically what I've mentioned on several occasions on here already. Also that it is credited as such in the booklet of the soundtrack. So, yes, he did this on purpose, and no, it isn't exactly kept a secret. Unless everybody downloads the score. So, how everybody is treating it as some 'big reveal' is quite revealing in a whole other way.

    You said that? shocked biggrin

    I didn't knew, sorry! I thought you meant the odd reference in one of the tracks, which was quite obvious. smile

    Thanks for clearing that up. The guy clearly did not buy the score. And IS actually a douche. biggrin

    Btw Bob, check your mail. wink

    Steven,

    To be fair, Jordi isn't the only one doing it and i am not fed up with him strictly speaking. I get your point though. smile

    But the notion shared by many people, i.e. everyone rushing and ranting in a competition-like race to find out who and what is copied in every new score, is really tiring me.

    Yes, it is rather boring.

    Though sometimes it's relevant to a discussion. Sometimes the influence is so strong, or so important to the music, it's odd not to mention it. But Jordi takes it WAY too far.

    Ah, righto. I haven't been keeping apprise of Inception discussions, plus I don't have the booklet.

    But that is pretty cool. smile
