    NP : PLAYING BY HEART - John Barry



    Gorgeous, light jazzy score also includes original tracks from the great Chet Baker of which Barry's score flows seamlessly between. One of the best late night scores you could listen to for chillin out. cool


    I'm enjoying this so much right now, anyone else a fan of this score?

    I've scarcely found a Barry score I didn't like. Well, maybe White Buffalo was a little less accessible, but that was an oddity in his canon. But surely Playing by Heart is something I like very much, too.

    NP: Blue Thunder, Arthur B. Rubinstein
    Yes, the companion score on the Airwolf release I mentioned earlier. Took me all day to get through the whole thing. XD But it's great stuff.

    I was playing: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom.....(Williams)

    Definetly a great dissapointment.

    The skull motif is great, but it's so overused that you quickly find it very repetitive and boring.

    About the music in the movie.. I find Raiders theme is used very badly in some "tender moments". I find it annoying.Seriouslu.

    NP:A league of their Own (Zimmer)

    The Final Game is easely one of Zimmer's top action tracks. i love shirley walker :P

    God damn but that piano in the main theme is a truly addictive riff! punk

    Love the use of Ondes Martenot in this score too.

    To celebrate Chuck's effortless victory over you and your machine gun I should've brought with me that new Invasion U.S.A. release today. Instead, I'm NP: Cimarron, Franz Waxman.

    Close enough, right?

    NP:black Hawk Down (Zimmer and others)

    I was really shocked (well..the exactly word is not so "positive") with this score. i was expecting Peacemaker 2.....

    But It is one of Zimmer's best scores in the movie, and In the album I can say is not so hard than some people say.

    Hunger , chant , of the eart or Still Reprise are really worth to listen. Sadly Mogadishu blues or bakara are out of place.

    Barraaaaaaaaaaaa....barraaaaaaaaaaa.

    BLACKHAWK DOWN is top-class modern score. Tremendously functional and influential, a very energetic and genuinely ballsy score with the necessary dramatic dosage!

    Let's put another fantastic Zimmer here while we're at it:

    NP: Crimson Tide - Hans Zimmer

    The template for modern action film scoring: I consider it a milestone in the genre, this album provides a thrill-ride experience that doesn't let up from the moment you hit Play. Still rocking out to it, even after countless listens...

    Wow, I find Black Hawk Down so hard-edged... I mean so hard-edged, in an obfuscating, rigid kind of way... It's modern, no doubt, and it's certainly ballsy, but also... I dunno, unfriendly. Uncompromising. Like Danny Elfman's The Kingdom. Mind you, Horner's Red Heat is also extremely hard-edged and unfriendly, but I can get on board with that one. I love it in fact. Maybe I'm just more at-ease with sounds of the 80s than modern-day movies... Or maybe I just need to do like Thin Red Line and pick Black Hawk Down up from my shelf and give it another shot, too.....

    NP: Gaby, Maurice Jarre
    Lovely, lovely little score by my favourite French composer. Yes, even more than Mr. Delerue.

    Though Jarre comes second to Delerue for me, it's great to see his name mentioned in such glowing terms. Jarre is such a class act and has written so many excellent scores and yet very rarely get's a mention here at this board.

    BlackHawk Down is SO FAR ahead of THE KINGDOM. Watch the movie, listen to the score inside it, turn the volume up, observe its usage. It's phenomenal.

    The things that weirds me out is that Black Hawk Down is sometimes mentioned to me by people who are complete neophytes in film music. They'll say: "Oh yeah, I have kind of an interest in film music. You know, there's, uh, Pirates of Caribbean, Lord of the Rings, The Crow, Black Hawk Down, you know high-profile stuff like that." I think it's such a achievement for a difficult score like BHD to be so well-known among the neophytes! Clearly the usage of the music in the movie (which I haven't seen) must've had an impact. I never would've imagined it to be a high-profile work based on the music alone. Kudos for it, though!

    Then again, I loathe The Crow. So popularity among neophytes isn't necessarily always such a big or well-deserved thing...

    I shall listen to it more though, I promise.

    NP: Judge Dredd, Alan Silvestri.
    One of my earliest scores! I went through a Silvestri-overdose phase a long time ago, and there was a time I couldn't bear to listen to stuff like this. I've warmed up to it once more now. Not a masterpiece, but some powerful fun. Kinda fun to hear his "urban demented saxophone screeches" like in Predator 2 make an appearance, too.
