Jerry Goldsmith, Alan Silvestri, Basil Poledouris, John Williams, James Horner and Hans Zimmer, the greatest of the greats. The Mutant, ...no words. Thank Christ for Mr Goldsmith.
Goldsmith always experimented and pushed the films epic vistas with the incredible variety of vibrant electronic soundscapes that he created on the keyboard, then with the orchestra. This great score never ages, and is a true testament to a great composer with remarkable chameleon like abilities.
A Masterpiece from THE MASTER GOLDSMITH!!!! A perfect example of Acustic Classical Orchestra combined with Electronic Sounds! The movie....simply GREAT!
Jack BuzzMusicZone a lost art of grandiose movies with grandiose music. Now it's just squeezing the great movies dry in the Hollywood intellectual desert.
I love to listen to this soundtrack while travelling through the arid and empty landscapes of Namibia! A beyond great composition for a movie that is a Masterpiece!
Paul Verhoven was the man when it came to entertaining 90s flicks. Starship Troopers, Basic Instinct, and Total Recall weren't the most well-regarded cinema, but My God are they entertaining.
13:50 Love the mutant mountain score and how it reaches a crescendo at the end of the piece, immediately followed by a score that screams "all business", like you've reached a new level of enlightenment and then are fully prepared to execute your mission with confidence and purpose.
From 21:30 onwards its nearly identical to the end of "first Knight" with Sean Connery, but of course its the same composer! Goldsmith was an awesome talent!!
Can you imagine what it would be like to be born in the year 2054 A.D. and be a 30 year old man or woman in the year 2084 A.D. What kind of world will it be? Probably good, bad, ugly, crazy and fantastic.
This sounds to me like composed in a DAW in 2020, where you can sketch and try out every idea in seconds. But it is from 1990, he heared it all in his head while writing.
obviously. A lot of these hollywood scores are influenced by Russian romantic composers, Musorsky, Borodin, etc. Worth a listen. John Williams uses tone colors from them too.
Poledouris, and so many other legendary movie composers, took their inspiration from Gustav Holst's "The Planets" orchestral suite: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AHVsszW7Nds.html
