Das macht mich natürlich sehr traurig, ist Snow doch unverkennbar einer meiner Filmmusik-Helden. Im Verlauf der letzten Jahre waren er und ich immer wieder per Mail im Austausch. Hauptsächlich wegen Nachrichten oder Anfragen, die über die Facebook-Seite reinkamen, die Anne, Oliver und ich für ihn einst eingerichtet haben und die ich immer noch gerne betreue. Er war immer sehr nett, hat sich auch immer wieder für die Arbeit bedankt, die wir uns damit machen. Unsere Unterhaltungen waren mal kürzer, mal länger, aber zuletzt leider eher einseitig, da er nicht mehr auf jede Mail reagierte. Ich weiß nicht, ob das schon Anzeichen für etwas waren. Er ließ sich zumindest nichts anmerken und auch, wenn ich nun im Nachhinein gerne das eine "letzte" Gespräch mit ihm gehabt hätte, so bin ich doch sehr glücklich über unseren Austausch und natürlich für immer dankbar für seine Musik.

M83 - A Necessary Escape Während alle über Zimmers F1-Score reden, höre ich mir das gerade erschienene Album zu den „Dakar Chronicles" an. Dabei handelt es sich um eine Doku über die Wüstenrallye Dakar, was man anhand der Musik zunächst wohl gar nicht so verorten mag. Es ist die vierte Filmmusik der Band M83, nach OBLIVION, YOU AND THE NIGHT und SUBURRA. Stilistisch handelt es sich hierbei wieder um ein Ambient-Album, welches eher Assoziationen zu den beiden Instrumental-Alben der Band, den „Digital Shades", weckt. Es gibt allerdings ein Thema, eine kleine, simple Melodie, die auf dem Album in den drei Tracks „A Necessary Escape Part One" bis „Part Three" auftaucht. Mal von zwei, drei etwas schnelleren Tracks abgesehen, ist die Musik sehr sphärisch und damit doch recht untypisch für einen Film über die Rallye Dakar. Ein typisches M83-Stück ist dabei „A Necessary Escape Part Two", welches man in dieser Form auch auf den „Digital Shades"-Alben findet. Dabei wird das Thema über die Laufzeit von acht Minuten wie in einem Loop wiederholt. Was sich ändert, sind der Klang des Themas, welches mit zunehmender Laufzeit leicht zu „leiern" beginnt, wie bei einem alten Tonband. Dazu werden erst dezent Klänge im Hintergrund hinzugefügt, welche gegen Ende das Thema nach und nach übertönen, bis es sich schließlich in den Klängen auflöst.

Snow Files of the Week: Suite from "Millennium - Season Two" (1997/98). Chris Carter verließ im Grunde die Serie nach der ersten Staffel, einerseits wegen Streitigkeiten mit dem Sender FOX bezüglich inhaltlicher Änderungen und andererseits wegen der Produktion des ersten Akte-X-Filmes, mit dem Carter alle Hände voll zu tun hatte. Als neue Showrunner setzte Carter seine beiden „Ziehsöhne" Glen Morgan und James Wong ein. Beide schrieben bereits einige X-Files-Episoden und gehörten zum Produktionsstab der X-Akten. Carter verblieb aber trotzdem als "Executive Producer". Im Vergleich zur ersten Staffel kommt die zweite Staffel nicht mehr ganz so düster daher. Außerdem bekam die MillenniuM-Gruppe nun eine Hintergrundgeschichte, die sich um biblische Prophezeihungen, Machtgier und innere Zerrissenheit rankte. Die Serie wurde eine Art "X-Files light", etwas, was Carter für "MillenniuM" niemals wollte. Eine Änderung von FOX bestand darin, dass die Serie auch dadurch nicht mehr so düster sein sollte, wenn es eine "lustige" Figur an Frank Blacks Seite gäbe. Zum Glück konnte sich Carter dagegen noch ganz gut wehren, allerdings scheint die Figur des Computer-Nerds Roedecker ein Zugeständnis an diesen Wunsch zu sein. Die zweite Staffel enthält die unter Fans sehr beliebten Folgen "Midnight of the Century", die Weihnachtsepisode und "The Curse of Frank Black", die Halloween-Episode. Beide kommen natürlich in der Suite vor, sowie auch ein Ausschnitt aus Richard Wagners Overtüre zu "Parsifal", da dieses Stück eine große Rolle in der Doppelfolge "Owls" und "Roosters" spielt. Die Musik stammt aus dem ersten 2-CD-Set, welches 2015 nach dem Ausverkauf der ersten Auflage von LLL wiederveröffentlicht wurde. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

Disc 1 and the opening of Disc 2 present the expanded score presentation. This is followed by the original 1969 soundtrack album, newly edited and mixed for this release.

Intrada presents the world-premiere release of Ernest Gold's score for the western The Last Sunset, the latest release in the Universal Pictures Classics Collection. Right at the outset, Gold's main title lays out the themes that form the backbone of the score, in the bold Americana style of Aaron Copland. On screen, as camera pans across rugged desert terrain, two different men, one dressed in black and the other in browns and blues, ride toward their destiny to music reminiscent of Fanfare for a Common Man. It sets the tone for a music score that has all the trappings of a complex yet robust western. In addition to Gold's often thundering score, is a recurring theme not by Gold, but none other than Dimitri Tiomkin by way of his melody for the song "Pretty Little Girl in the Yellow Dress." Intrada founder Doug Fake had often asked about releasing this soundtrack, but it seemed there was always another title to prioritize. With his passing nearly a year ago, it seemed like the right time but also too late. It's a gem of a score and just another way the Intrada team can honor his memory and passion for film music. Produced with love and care by the Grammy-nominated producer Mike Matessino, the album was sourced from the full-track master tapes stored at Universal in excellent condition. The package is rounded out with detailed liner notes by Frank K. DeWald and restored cover art by Stephane Coedel. The western drama was directed by Robert Aldrich and stars Rock Hudson and Kirk Douglas. In the film, Brendan O'Malley (Douglas) is a fugitive gunslinger who flees to Mexico and joins a cattle drive led by Dana Stribling (Hudson), a lawman pursuing him for murder. As tensions rise between the two men, complications deepen when O'Malley falls in love with the daughter of his former lover—unaware of a shocking truth about her parentage. THE SCORE 01.

Im August gibt es von Waxwork dann doch auch noch eine CD.

The Scorpion King (2002) was a prequel and spin-off of Universal Pictures’ successful Mummy franchise, launching the superstardom of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in his first lead role. The Rock reprised his character of Mathayus from The Mummy Returns in an origin story depicting the Akkadian mercenary’s rise to power 5,001 years prior to the events of the previous films. Director Chuck Russell (The Mask, Eraser) chose John Debney to score The Scorpion King based on the strength of his symphonic score for Cutthroat Island (1995). Debney followed in the Mummy footsteps of Jerry Goldsmith and Alan Silvestri with a gargantuan, desert-flavored action score for full orchestra and choir, including non-Western instruments like the ney, duduk and ram’s horn (and Japanese taiko drums and flutes) to evoke exoticism and antiquity. He also, befitting the film’s contemporary swagger and The Rock’s wrestling fanbase, created a “mash-up” of symphonic instruments with shredding electric guitars. Director and composer intended the score to be a tribute to classic adventure films. As Debney recalls in the new liner notes, “Chuck stressed how he wanted it to hearken back to those great films from yesteryear, where you have a lot of musical scurrying around. I went back to Korngold for its pirate aspect and the music of Ray Harryhausen’s Sinbad movies, as well as Jerry and Alan. I love doing these little musical homages to my heroes.” The Scorpion King was released by Varèse Sarabande as a 40-minute CD at the time of the film. The 2CD Deluxe Edition doubles the score program to nearly 80 minutes, and adds a bonus section of Debney’s demos. Liner notes are by Daniel Schweiger.

Matchstick Men (2003) was an off-beat project from Ridley Scott after a series of intense, big-budget spectacles (Gladiator, Black Hawk Down, Hannibal). Based on a novel by Eric Garcia, the script by Ted Griffin and Nicholas Griffin was a character study about con men (played by Nicholas Cage, Sam Rockwell and Alison Lohman) which, in Scott’s hands, became a comedy with dramatic elements. Reuniting with Ridley Scott was composer Hans Zimmer, who had scored his previous three films—as well as 1991’s Thelma & Louise—and would go on to score several more. Zimmer, like Scott, sparked to the humor of the story and wrote a delightful, Nino Rota-flavored “Felliniesque” score. This lighthearted approach caused no end of drama behind the scenes, as the studio insisted upon a more serious tone. However, the film was released to critical acclaim, validating the filmmakers’ intentions. Varèse Sarabande released a 22-track, 56-minute soundtrack of Matchstick Men at the time of the film, including several of the licensed songs that complement Zimmer’s music in the film. This Deluxe Edition is a 30-track, 79-minute program of solely Zimmer’s score (including additional cues by and with Geoff Zanelli, Jim Dooley and Bruce Fowler). The behind-the-scenes conflicts are documented in Kaya Savas’ new liner notes, including a Q-and-A interview with Zimmer that, like his music, never fails to entertain.

Elfmans Score erscheint physisch nun zumindest auf Vinyl. Waxwork Records, in association with WaterTower Music, is proud to present BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE Original Motion Picture Score by Danny Elfman! Director Tim Burton once again teams up with composer Danny Elfman to create chaotic and fantastical music for the Ghost with the Most! Though very few of his collaborations with Burton are sequels, Elfman jumped at the chance to revisit his work from the original Beetlejuice. After 36 years, it was easy for him to get into the mindset he found in 1988. Speaking to Forbes, Elfman said that getting “the chance to jump back into the same playground” with Beetlejuice Beetlejuice after all these years was “a real treat.” Beetlejuice is back! Oscar-nominated, singular creative visionary Tim Burton and Oscar nominee and star Michael Keaton reunite for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, the long-awaited sequel to Burton’s award-winning Beetlejuice. Keaton returns to his iconic role, alongside Oscar nominee Winona Ryder as Lydia Deetz and two-time Emmy winner Catherine O’Hara as Delia Deetz, with new cast members Justin Theroux, Monica Bellucci, Arthur Conti in his feature film debut, with Emmy nominee Jenna Ortega as Lydia’s daughter, Astrid, and Oscar nominee Willem Dafoe. After an unexpected family tragedy, three generations of the Deetz family return home to Winter River. Still haunted by Beetlejuice, Lydia’s life is turned upside down when her rebellious teenage daughter, Astrid, discovers the mysterious model of the town in the attic and the portal to the Afterlife is accidentally opened. With trouble brewing in both realms, it’s only a matter of time until someone says Beetlejuice’s name three times and the mischievous demon returns to unleash his very own brand of mayhem. Waxwork Records is excited to present the debut vinyl release of BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE Original Motion Picture Score by Danny Elfman as a deluxe LP featuring "Ghost with the Most" swirl colored vinyl, artwork by Ruiz Burgos in partnership with Bottleneck Gallery, heavyweight reverse board packaging, and an 11"x11" art print insert.
