your favorite soundtracks

what are some of yours? i always liked the Requiem for a
Dream soundtrack, as well as Pi. I've been listening to the
soundtracks for Berserk and Akira lately as well. I really
like the synth-barbarian music sound of Berserk at times.
And of course, anything by Nobuo Uematsu or Ennio Morricone
really makes me content.

Solaris- By Cliff Martinez

my favorite score of all time.

if you don't know it, go out and BUY IT NOW.

(and see the movie, cause it was great, and the music plays
such a major role in it)

i think i can't say i like one soundtrack album from start
to stop. there's always one or two tracks i skip.

but i can say i like soundtracks of :

Blade Runner
Pi
Kill Bill

maybe Requiem for a dream too.... but it's too
...psychomaniac ? and repetitive at the same time. great
strings parts there anyway.

ONe of them is oingo boingo, funnily enough. Danny Elfman
really dominates movie music.

The Graduate has a very mellow soundtrack, Akira is
stupendous, and I buzz off the soundtrack to Forbidden
Planet by Bebe and Louis Barron. They are the most recent in
my brainscape.

I like that bit in the Twin Peaks film when they're in the
bar talking and the music is so loud that you can't hear
what the actors are saying, just see their lips move. Weird!

Alain Goraguer - La Planète sauvage: weird psychedelic
funk/jazz blend from the early seventies

Zbigniew Preisner - Bleu: touching orchestral compositions

In the Mood for Love - Various artists here. The Chinese
music works well next Nat King Cole and I like it.

Pretty much anything Nino Rota ever did. IMO, greatest film
composer ever. (Sorry Morricone)

Those nude scenes were a bit uncomfortable, in the first
season she's depicted as a (seemingly) innocent 17 year high
school girl, then in the film you see her topless and
getting oral pleasure in a brothel type place, felt slightly
paedoish when I first saw it... But after the initial
surprise her own lil' TWIN PEAKS are the stars of the
series! :D

(what a pun)

"Zbigniew Preisner - Bleu: touching orchestral
compositions"

I havent heard of Bleu. I have La Double Vie de Veronique
and it has one of the most haunting pieces ever on it: Van
den Budenmayer - Concerto en mi mineur Version de 1798

Do you rate Eraserhead Clint? It's one of those films that
I've never got round to seeing. Keep putting it off as it
looks quite hard work. Might rent it on DVD.

Solaris- By Cliff Martinez

'Tis beautiful.

Michael Nyman's soundtrack for Gattaca is pretty nice. Also
Paul Giovanni and Magnet in The Wicker Man (wonder what's
going to done music wise with the new one), and Riz
Ortolani's cheese for Cannibal Holocaust works me.

yea, akira, mulholland drive, twin peaks, blade runner,
pi... then of course Event Horizon and Octane (both with
Orbital)... The Beach had great electro too... Yep, and
Ghost in the Shell 1 and 2 were nice, if not something I'd
listen to often... danny elfman has talent, recently in
Charlie & The Chocolate Factory... Mmm, dare I say: Disney's
Lion King! ... I shouldn't forget Tarantino's eclectic
soundtracks for films like Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill and (my
favourite) Jackie Brown... Then of course there are one-hit
wonders like Adagio For Strings in Elephant Man slash
Platoon and Also Sprach Zarathustra in 2001...

As far as games go, I have much more passion: Final Fantasy
1-10(/9), Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross, Xenogears, Shadow
Hearts, Valkyrie Profile, Katamari Damacy, the Zeldas, the
Marios, Rez, the Wipeouts and on and on...
