I've been listening to this a lot the last few days, and
damn it's good... I really love soundtracks, cause the main
focus is on the mood and stuff, and creating the
atmosphere...

speaking of soundtracks, I watched 28 Days Later tonight,
and damn there was some nice ambient music in there...
anyone have that music?

brian eno - ascent an ending off of apollo is in that movie,
as is some godspeed you black emperor. i think the rest is
just soundtrack music.

hmmm, I've heard some of that Eno album, and that might be

I've been watching Koyaanisquatsi for the first time this
week on a semi-decent home cinema setup (better than my
laptop). And yeah, it's def.about mood and stuff and
creating an atmosphere.

I have powaaquatsi too (10 quid for both dvds at fopp) - I
heard there's a third one ; Am i correct ?

i got apollo atmospheres and soundtracks a while ago when
'traffic' came out (which also used 'ascent (an ending)' --
which i totally love) and was really disappointed with it.
nothing memorable other than that one track.

Check out Baraka as well if you like Koyaanisquatsi
etc...similar kinda vibe..

All about the rhythms & pulses of life, rather than having
any particular narrative...

There's a complete bootleg of Vangelis' 1492:CoP that's
available, and it's very very nice. Some FX, alas.

Yeah, I'm a longtime follower of Vangelis... funniest thing
I found is how everyone seems to know "Chariots of Fire" but
few can name Vangelis. I wonder why that is?

I don't much like the Chariots of Fire soundtrack... the
main theme is real nice though!

i love the bladerunner soundtrack, aside from that, ive only
vangelis on hearts of space, they had a 1 hour retrospective
on his career, some really good stuff.

as funkmaster was saying about focusing on moods and
atmospheres for sountracks, the movie Ravenous had a great
score that fit the film really well.
