listen to the theme from His Dark Materials 2019 he has not composed it he has taken Music by: Lorne Balfe and just changed it slightly i mean the main foundation theme
Dune and Foundation adaptations in the same year? What a way to make quarantine that much more manageable. (Just found a copy of Foundation to read too) 7:37 is a great moment!
As a science fiction enjoyer, reading and watching Foundation was some kind of return to roots, some kind of pilgrimage to the very beginnings of this genre…
Getting Bear McCreary to do the soundtrack of this is possibly the smartest thing that they could have done on the audio front. Bear always manages to capture/create the emotion of a scene in a way that you'll remember just by hearing the music.
Bear has worked with David S. Goyer before on DaVinci’s Demons and other things, and Bear had read the Foundation series when he was younger. So naturally Bear wanted in (read Bear’s blog entry he posted on Foundation this week). The new music technology he helped create is just astonishing!
I walked into my living room whilst my parents were watching this show and within about 10 seconds of listening to the OST that was playing in the background i knew it was McCreary. After playing as much God of war as i do i can recognize his work very easily.
Dos de mis sueños cumplidos! Ver Foundation como serie y la versión de Villeneuve de Dune haciendo algo más de justicia a la película de Lynch... Dos de las sagas más famosas de la ciencia ficción escritas jamás... Y uno de los broches de calidad están en las bandas sonoras de ambas, al menos para mí... Me hubieran encantado que Foundation tuviera una banda sonora tan extensa y especial como la de Zimmer en DUNE,pero es que ese hombre es de otra galaxia...Y aún así Bear McCreary se sale con esta pedazo de BSO...Si ya el tema principal se te queda en la mente el de The Chant of The Luminous te invita a orar al luminoso y a añorar el Imperio...Sino fuera porque el personaje de Gaal me fascina! Jeje larga vida a LA FUNDACIÓN...
I just love all those ads right after starting the dream of cleon. Really helps to get in the mood lol. Also the tampon ad halfway through to make sure you don't get back in the mood.
The music when the young Cleon escaped and is roaming in the city looking for Azura's place is my favorite but I can't find it anywhere... Somebody helps!
not a gamer, but this music makes me want to play an open world game of this book adaptation. The whole scenery from the ships and building designs, costumes, cast and score ... i want more of that.
Gaal Leaves Synnax may be the greatest television show song ever. It's incredible, it was the song that hooked me into the show immediately upon hearing it.
Anyone else heard "Spiderman 2002 Theme" in the main title for Foundation? :D I was like, wait a minute I heard something similar somewhere. Such a great mix of tones and instruments.
You can hear the Battlestar Galactica influence with "Gaal Leaves Synnax" and I am 100% ok with that, Bear McCreary is a galaxy wide treasure and must be protected at all costs.
It is not on par with the books but I am still impressed with the show. Art directorial is off the charts. Very successful, epic and mesmerizing visuals and world building. Clonic dynasty idea is very interesting and I like the application a lot. I like how they are building the 2nd foundation but with a huge caveat, 2nd foundationers are not future seers in books and I much prefer the book version with mind powers. Anyhow biggest disappointment is Demerzel. Instead of being a mega puppet master she downgraded to a depressive robot. Definitely ruined that character. Vault difference is ok for me too :) Enjoying the show overall. Good job.
I read the original trilogy in 2017. After read the other sequels and prequels in 2019. And in 2021(beggining of the year) i read again the trilogy. From a fan of foundation all books, i say: The series adaptation it´s great. Foundation first book(and the main trilogy in general) don´t work as a literal adaptation, even the author(asimov) agreed with that. When they annouced the adaptation in 2018, i was expecting many changes in story.
The song "Gaal Leaves Synnax" the bit at 5:30 is very familiar - like it was taken from another song. Like Breaking Down by Florence + The Machine. Is anyone catching it? If not F+TM then its definitely something familiar to me. The song I have in my head is "im on my knees again" or "Im on my feet again" something close to that. It just sounds so familiar or really close in sound to a song I've heard.
Some elements have a striking resemblence to the Stellaris soundtrack. That timestamp is quite a lot like the crescendo in "creation and beyond": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qjqsIENcFR0.html
the Chant of the Luminous could be the pater of a new religion, are we at the beggining of the end . The fall for the rise of a new foundation. (without human would be prefered)
The show it´s great dude. Yes, the fate of characters and some concepts are differents, but the main trilogy of books are more about ideas, concepts and world construction, not characters,And the short stories are to short to make a series, because this i expected changes. And review a series only for 2 or 3 episodes it´s ridicolous. I watch every all season of a show to make a review.
Not minding the series. Bear McCreary has made some of the most iconic TV themes in history. I read the Foundation books 30 odd years ago (and a Prequel or two from other authors more recently) and remember thinking how great it would be as a series, then realising there's a lot of conversations on space ships, so it might not work. At least this looks like it works. My only disappointment so far was the thingy that displayed the calculations wasn't as impressive onscreen as I made it in my head all those years ago.
The show it´s great dude. Yes, the fate of characters and some concepts are differents from the novels, but the main trilogy of books are more about ideas, concepts and world construction, not character development. And the short stories are to short to make a series, because this i expected changes before the release. And review a series only for 2 or 3 episodes it´s ridiculous. I watch every all season of a show to make a review. I am loving the series. People of today it´s very fanatical about adaptations.
@@arthuroliveirasouza4714 The main series of books is devoted to ideas and Hari Seldon but the show is dedicated to "special" mathematicians (especially in the third series) and whimpering emperors, it will only get worse, people ask for an adaptation of the book, and not fanfiction of a schoolgirl from the back desk that changes the character and gender of characters for the sake of their romantic stories.
We obviously don't watch the same show. Also read up on what Asimov said in regards to a Foundation adaptation. He said that severe changes are practically a neccessity. It keeps the general plotlines of the book series, and that is enough for me. Fleshing out the empire and showing its decline via the emperors itself as well as other indicators is a pretty good thing actually. If you don't like the show, don't watch it. But don't expect everyone to agree with your view of it.
@@evillipton1965 YOu clearly did not watch much of the serie. with S1E9 it clearly is that Seldon is still the mainstage and center of the ideas (as he apears to be more like AI driven hologram instead of simple holorecord). Also I really like the take they are doing on the decline of Imperium. If every season is dedicated to single seldon crisis we are here for a lot of good time with a lot to spare on fleshing out some stories not mentioned in the grandiose scale of books.
Simply not a big fan of Bear McCreary. He got famous for BSG, but most of that was copy work. And on this one, I am not particularly impressed. Everything done here is done much better elsewhere.
