awesomeperson Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 AKIRA soundtrack deserves more credit, it's amazing, still gives me goosebumps after all these years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caretstik Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Rumble Fish (Stewart Copeland) Ghosts... Of The Civil Dead (Nick Cave, Mick Harvey and Blixa Bargeld), amazing film as well, not seen it years now but I've never forgotten it. Wish to fuck it could be released on DVD. 2001: A Space Odyssey The Exorcist The last two are soundtracks rather than scores, but they do the same job I suppose.

awepittance Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOR1yboyzMo Day of the Dead - John Harrison (rockin huh) i need to track down a copy of this, i always forget that Day had great music too. aye i will miss Jerry Goldsmith. I just saw Rambo: first blood (for the first time) and his score for it is fucking excellent. He even writes a cheesy titular pop song about Rambo at the end. Not very many film composers (if any) use a synthesizer ensemble gracefully to compliment an orchestra anymore. His score for poltergeist in particular is a beautiful combination of glistening synth tones and high pitched string sections. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AlDiwvv1QY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ie8yMA7nY20 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsUZ1aIp4OE Alan Silvestri's music for Predator & back to the future (which sound remarkably similar give or take some tribal rythms) are definitely in my top 5 scores this song gets me every time, so fucking well done http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Z4ll94hN_E&feature=related and of course who can forget John Williams excellent scores especially his best work, the Indiana Jone trilogy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZuFAwhRP_g http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQIjCI6Eji0&feature=PlayList&p=3BE17F650A7485C4&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Abuse Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Manfred Hubler & Siegfried Schwab's music for Jess Franco's films is some of the most awesome shit i've ever heard. Probably the most well known of the tunes, it was also used in Jackie Brown: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gh8m4v5WkwQ Mark Isham's beautiful score for the original Hitcher, eerie ambient moments. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Q2whcsgF4I Tangerine Dream awesomeness from Risky Business: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KuNH3C36QE John Carpenter's scores are usually great, my personal faves are probably Christine and Halloween III (!) The Devil in Miss Jones has a really harrowing score considering it's a porn film. Huge favourite of mine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
