i love 'escape from new york', 'the fog' and 'halloween' ('assault on precinct 13' and 'dark star' is kinda shitty, but the movies are pretty neat)...
what else should/would/must i love? any similiar soundtracks? composers? artists? music? etc?
tell me and i'll give you a banana. i need more of that primitive late 70's/early 80's analogue (arp, linn, sequential circuits) stuff.

you might like Jerry Goldsmith's score for "Logan's run", which is quite excellent and a combination of orchestral music and synthesizers.
in the same vein would be Wendy Carlos' "Tron" soundtrack.
also look into Fred Karlin's magnficent "Westworld" OST.

that's just his/her "Bach switched-on" work isn't it?
that's quite different to "Tron".

"Switched-on Bach" I mean.
I don't know, I do like Carpenters stuff, but not those Bach reworkings.

it's quite different, yes. i thought it was similar in sound, though.

I don't think so - the "tron" soundtrack is part real orchestra and part synthesized stuff (which at the time was a real feat to synchronise).

although perhaps the synthesized parts may sound like the Bach stuff - I don't know exactly. a lot of "tron" is a combination of orchestra and synthesizers so the overall sound is different, I think.

i'm talking specifically about the synthesized music in a clockwork orange. and i didn't mean to compare it to tron - i meant it fit the sound he was looking for in this thread. but i could be wrong about that as well.

What's wrong with the 'Assault on precinct 13' soundtrack? That's a defining Carpenter classic, surely? Surely!

the Christine soundtrack is good too, more ambient than his other ones. maybe roedelius' Selbstportrait album too, from the same time.
always prefered the bits wendy carlos did on the shining soundtrack to the other ones

Can somebody here who knows about Roedelius confirm that that track of of Bowie's "Low", "Weeping Wall" is very similar, just so I'm not going mad?

I guess Eno, as producer in said track, had more of a hand than Mr Derek Bowie. Which is interesting. I can't remember what the Roedelius track is, that loon Elusive gave it to me... but that too was an Eno product.
