JORDI... WE GET IT! YOU ARE PLAYING LOST!
Do you need to continuously remind us? Let us know when you play something else.

First proper play of MICHAEL GIACCHINO - Roar!
I tell you why people are being driven crazy over this: 'cause it has all the gripping energy, the rawness of the clearly-heard instruments (.e.g the brooding brass), the pure and clean-cut sound, the ACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS and ACTUAL THEME, and the unstoppable coolness that it's been long missing from film music lately. It doesn't need scientific explanations, it just sparks flames and carries a soul long forgotten in this area.
"and carries a soul long forgotten in this area" Yeap! it's called Godzilla by Akira Ifukube.
So true!

brillian and Exiting...Even when sometimes Giacchino goes to Elfman territory.
"Grand o'l Prix" and "reboot" are awesome...With his Days Of thunder kind of Victory progression! -

Agree, completely. Although the word is "exciting"
I've played it three times in a row today, it's so energetic, fun and at the same time touching and theme-driven, it totally blew me away! Glad there's no mickey mousing in the final release!Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

Sure... I'm not saying that it's not a good piece but after re-listening to Ifukube's Symphonic Fantasia the other day, Michael REALLY stayed true to the genre. He didn't break any NEW ground with the piece is what I'm getting at... however you are right, we need to hear more music of this sort in film music today.

or the gorgeous Men Don't Leave?
No, I have not... but they're probably hard to get? I did see Jumpin' Jack Flash... but I can't say that I noticed the score! Wasn't that the awful Whoopie Goldberg/Will Smith comedy-that-tried-to-be-a-drama / drama-that-tried-to-be-a-comedy-but-turned-out-to-be-a-drama? -

Indeed. I saw the original GOJIRA on the weekend, and Giacchino was DEFINITELY taking a few leaves out of the Ifukube book. I'm glad somebody is.

It won't displace Lawman as my favourite Fielding western score (or Michael Winner score), but it's still wonderful. -

NP: (because of that one thread): Days Of Heaven - Ennio Morricone
Bundled together with the excellent Gli Avvoltoi Hanno Fame (Two Mules For Sister Sara), I generally overlooked this score...and quite undeservedly. It's a lovely little score with a beautiful love theme that comes out just marvellously in the last track.
Very soothing and intelligent, yet quite melancholically emotional.... well, you know what Morricone does when he does it best...and this is a fine, fine effort.'no passion nor excitement here, despite all the notes and musicians' ~ Falkirkbairn -

I wish Morricone was doing US films more regularly. This is a fine suspense score with three memorable character themes.A butterfly thinks therefore I am -
- CommentTimeMay 6th 2008
i was playing Lost Season 3...The action stuff has much more life without the images than in the previous scores, and the renditions of the main themes (Kate, Desmond and penelope, Juliet, Ben, "the journey" theme....) are So touching...So moving..
(i have not heard very much the sexon cd, Im too adicted to the first one)
NP:Speed Racer ( Giacchino)
All the contrary than Lost.
You have to be in the right mood for this extravaganza. -

NP: Metalstorm - Richard Band
First listen and...
Dynamite action score for this early 80's 3-D sci-fi epic. For some reason the studio threw a significant amount of money at the music budget which allowed Band to record 3 days of orchestral music at Warner Bros. with Shirley Walker conducting. Band laces his symphonic writing with his patented synth effects which adds a bit of mystery to the music. The battle music here is outstanding and I can't help but hearing what Dennis McCarthy would come up with years later on his Star Trek: Generations score. This is a most pleasant surprise and I highly recommend picking it up if you can.

NP: Beyond Rangoon - Hans Zimmer
So beautiful and emotional. The final track is just awesome, one of the greatest tracks ever composed by Mr. Zimmer. The action scenes are also impressive because there isn't so much synth stuff there (track 3, 5:33-6:45 )
By the way, does anyone know the name of the female vocalist of the score? -
