Now I listening Spider man, Wanted, Charlie, 9, Woodstock, T4, Hellboy)
Right now whilst driving through New England I am listening to Sleepy Hollow & Taking Woodstock! Co-incidence??
I think not! hahaI use my cell phone as an alarm clock, and the ringtone is “Just Another Day.”
Alexandre Desplat’s wonderful score for FANTASTIC MR. FOX. I’m loving it. Totally original. But where is Mr. Mothersbaugh?
Very interesting that you mention that score, I was listening to it the other day. I am particularly fond of “Fifty Miles of Desert”, I love that staccato piano stuff that John Williams loved to write back in the 1970’s (the Main Titles from Earthquake perhaps being my favorite).
Now Playing: Peter Gunn from Henry Mancini. One of his best.

NP: THE MUMMY (Jerry Goldsmith) <– my fav Goldsmith soundtrack
RE: Coraline
I have only listened to it a few times, but YES I have really enjoyed listening to it.
It really struck me whilst watching the film itself. The Main Titles are great.
I just got back from seeing A Serious Man and 1. Wow what another great movie from the C. Bros &
2. Bless them both, the sound designer & Carter Burwell for great use of soundtrack to provide sparse music aural landscape. Silence is plentiful but to great effect. As tis the simple but emotional score“Dogs,” Standard Operating Procedure. Gotta love that minor third ostinato kick Elfman’s been on for the last half-dozen or so scores.
I have Coraline on my iPod but haven’t listened to it yet.. is it good?
You have a score that you’ve never heard on your ipod?
I don’t mean to come off as grumpy, but if people don’t support more obscure film scores, it makes it harder for lesser-known albums to get releases.
A film composer friend of mine gave me a free copy a couple of weeks ago and I haven’t had a lot of time to listen to it yet. I don’t mean to come off as grumpy but i was just wondering if it was any good.
…
I know right.. I also got CAPRICA, TRICK ‘r TREAT, and BATMAN MASK OF THE PHANTASM.. all Free.. I got some good friends..
btw.. if you haven’t heard Trick ‘r Treat yet.. it’s awesome.. very Herrmann-esque.. and Elfman is mentioned in the liner notes…
…
Wait a minute Ryan… When you say “SCROOGED”, you mean : The suite on MFADT ?
Or you’re talking about an advanced copy of the upcoming release ? (By tha way, I was hoping it would be out for Christmas… Any information on this???)
