Neue Scores von MovieScore Media im Mai & Juni

[Marcus Stöhr]

MovieScore Media hat für den Mai & Juni die Veröffentlichung von 5 Scores angekündigt:

MMS09011 THE POKER CLUB

Music Composed and Conducted by Evan Evans

Released on May 12, 2009 CD / download

Evan Evans' score for The Poker Club is a very dark and sensual score which recalls the sound of Jerry Goldsmith's film noir excursions, and its elegant 'under-your-skin' qualities may remind some listeners of Howard Shore's finest scores. The Poker Club, which is being released on DVD in the US on April 21, is a dark thriller starring Johnathon Schaech, Judy Reyes and Johnny Messner. It tells the story about four friends whose weekly poker night turns into a nightmare when they discover and accidentally kill a burglar. Young composer Evan Evans, who is the son of legendary jazz icon Bill Evans, has crafted a score which effectively combines a live orchestra with electronic elements, with low brass clusters, sustained misterioso string writing and a sophisticated main theme at its core.

MMS09012 UNDERGROUND

Music Composed by Stuart Hancock

Released on May 19, 2009 CD / download

Newcomer Stuart Hancock has composed a powerful and exciting orchestral/electronic score for this action movie about an undeground tournament in London where twelve fighters clash to fight for £500,000. Our release of the explosive score, which has a particularly driving and motivating main theme, co-incides with the UK DVD release of the film on May 18. The music is adrenaline-pumping, heroic, intensely rhythmic and - simply put - entertaining! This CD will be followed by Hancock's most recent score for the director and producer of Underground, Chee Keong Cheung, Bodyguard: A New Beginning (see below).

MMS09013 IMAGO MORTIS

Music Composed and Conducted by Zacarías M. de la Riva

Released on May 26, 2009 CD / download

Young composer Zacarías M. de la Riva is yet another stunning example of the current Spanish film music movement, which has given us great scores by composers such as Alfons Conde, Roque Baños, Javier Navarrete, Fernando Velázquez... His score for the Italian/Spanish horror film Imago Mortis is a stylish, both dark and beautiful orchestral/choral score that is best described as belonging to the gothic tradition of horror film music. Starring Geraldine Chaplin, the film, where terror is carried out using 'thanatography', opened in Italy in January and is expected to premiere in Spain and other territories later this year.

MMS09014 BODYGUARD - A NEW BEGINNING

Music Composed by Stuart Hancock

Released on June 9, 2009 CD / download

Underground composer Stuart Hancock's score for Chee Keong Cheung's new film, Bodyguard - A New Beginning - is an equally engaging modern film music piece written for orchestra and electronics. This score puts a little more emphasis on character-driven music, as the story is about a Hong Kong bodyguard who is sent to the UK to protect a woman whose identity is known only by his boss. Hancock's dark, percussive and driving action music is coupled with reflective themes and atmospheric suspense writing.

MMS09015 NO-DO (THE BECKONING)

Music Composed by Alfons Conde

Released on June 16, 2009 CD / download

Alfons Conde, who wrote the acclaimed scores for The Abandoned and The Dark Hour, is back with a new lagre orchestral horror score for director Elio Quiroga (The Dark Hour). No-Do, which will be marketed under the title The Beckoning in the US, is a ghost thriller taking place in a haunted house - and Conde's music is just as chillingly eerie and musically inventive as you would expect after hearing his two previous scores! The orchestra is augmented by choir and many of the score's most exciting moments are the ones where the vocal writing takes the lead (the alto solo in the 'Main Title' is just one example!).

Hmm...sagen mir auf Anhieb alle nichts, aber wie wir das Label kennen ist da bestimmt der eine oder andere Überraschungshit dabei

[coforgotten]

Also der Conde ist definitiv was für mich. Ich fand sein The Dark Hour schon toll. Da hab ich wieder was, worauf ich mich freuen kann .

Obwohl, de la Riva könnte ich auch mal ne Chance geben ... kommt mir ja auch sehr spanisch vor . Der Clip klingt ja schonmal nicht allzu schlecht ... wenn auch nicht grad die Neuerfindung der Filmmusik .

Dieser hier ...

[Grubdo]

Nein. Weder hat der Film was mit Kevin Kostner noch mit dem Jet Li Film zu tun.Ist ein Direct-To-DVD Yakuza-Actionfilm mit realistischer Action, die Musik war Orchester/Elektronik-Mix, schön dramatisch mit toller Action und auch thematisch stark.
