Casino Royale | David Arnold
What a score! 'African Rundown' and 'Miami International' are two of the coolest action cues Arnold's ever composed.
Couldn't agree M-O-R-E! My man!
I third this. Casino Royale is quickly becoming my favourite of Arnold's Bond scores - it's definately the one I listen to most.

Without question one of the most gifted composers out there today. Singularly brilliant melodies and musical textures overall.Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

Lair | John Debney & Kevin Kaska
I absolutely love this score.
I love it too. One of this year´s best.
But now you mention it, which parts are Kaska´s work, if you (or somebody else) know it? I have 4 tracks of the score labeled as Kaska´s ("Main Menu", "Blood River", "Breaking the Ice" and "Bridge of the Ancients"), but I don´t know if it´s a reliable info. And I assume that even if those tracks are by Kaska, they are based around Debney´s themes? Too many doubts too soon this morning
Mine says the same on iTunes, I think Kaska's cues do actually sound different to most of Debney's stuff on the album. 'Blood River' is a fantastic action cue, and one that's peaked my interest in anything Kaska does in the future.

Yes, "Blood River" is a great action cue, followed very very close by the other two: "Breaking the Ice" and "Bridge of the Ancients". And you´re right, a composer to keep an eye on.

A great selection of re-recorded themes and even re-recorded tracks that were never released and two tracks that never appeared anywhere like The More Things Change which was apparantly an un-used track from OHMSS.
An excellent album, the version of The Lion In Winter complete with choir AND Hammond Organ has to be heard to be believed. Man, Barry was SOOOOOOO cool and innovative back in the late 60's

"After The Storm" is a great cue from this - there's a Celtic feel with the wordless vocals and the woodwinds.

So much is just sonic noise and only really becomes listenable when Bates uses Carpenter's themes from the original movie.

A great main theme, and a lot of 70's Rythms!

They are almost a better listening experience than the realeased Cd.
Without any doubt, zimmer best action writting! ( until now his most complex action score was peacemaker or muppet treasure island , but AWE surpass both)
I just can't think how He can surpass something so beauty and old fashioned epic "Marry me" or so big and exiting like "hoist the colours". -

Pedigree? What do you mean exactly? In almost every mean TTRL is Zimmer's masterpiece, even if he doesn't try to get as fast or something.
The Thin Red Line has better development, better woodwind orchestrations. I just can't explain why is it so better. Performance, the whole idea, Zimmer's in-film best score. I'd need James and Demetris to elaborate here. PotC isn't as half as emotional as TTRL ishttp://www.filmmusic.pl - Polish Film Music Review Website -

I agree totally with your first sentence. TTRL is a masterpiece, and one of his best in-film music (or THE best) as you say. We won´t argue here.
But in terms of developement I have to disagree. Pirates 3 has plenty of themes (form the previous scores, new ones, rearrangements of the previous, plus diferent arrangements / orchestrations of the new themes). So in terms of pure developement of themes I think Pirates is miles away of TTRL. Of course Pirates is big, bold action-drama-adventure music, and TTRL is softer, melancolic, restrained and pure beauty music. Two completely different approaches for two completely different films (in intentions and results). I think both movies have the BEST score possible.Anything with an orchestra or with a choir....at some point will reach you -

NP: The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (Howard Shore)
As much as I like the trilogy of scores, I've always gone back to this score specifically. I think as a whole the LOTR trilogy scores are vastly overrated -- beautiful melodies and lush orchestration are appararent (but I feel that Shore tried too hard to push emotional buttons in the final film), but I feel the middle chapter is one that's a true masterpiece. And I don't see the fuss about the super-duper 4-disc complete release -- the regular album release has most of the highlights on one disc.http://unsungfilmscores.blogspot.com/ -- My film/TV/game score review blog -
