Soundtracks

Samsara

Michael Stearns, Lisa Gerrard and Marcello De Francisci’s score for Ron Fricke’s Samsara yields some wonderful surprises, despite quite a few omissions from the film. More…

Samsara
Drive

As one of last year’s cinema highlights, Drive came with a soundtrack to match. Composed by Cliff Martinez, the score is nothing less than pure perfection. More…

Drive
Life Of Pi (Soundtrack)

Mychael Danna’s score is magnificent, soothing and inspirational and can be enjoyed in addition to Lee’s film and Martel’s novel or as a stand-alone collection of songs. More…

Life Of Pi (Soundtrack)
Lincoln

John Williams’ latest score might not have that one grand theme we’ve always come to recognise in his greatest scores, but the signature themes are there waiting to be discovered. More…

Lincoln
Batman

Danny Elfman rose to prominence with his score for Tim Burton’s Batman, a pure Gothic melodrama using a dark Wagnerian orchestral sound harking back to the old studio days. More…

Batman
Black Gold

James Horner’s score for Jean-Jacques Annaud’s Black Gold combines traditional instrumentation with a more classical style, whilst still maintaining a Celtic feel. More…

Black Gold
The Ides Of March

A great composer shows great variety, influential flair and no fear to let himself get lost in the world of composition. Desplat shows this with his score for Clooney’s film. More…

The Ides Of March
Prometheus

It’s hard not to think of the film’s images as I listen to Marc Streitenfeld’s score. There’s a darkness running through it, but there’s also a great sense of wonder. More…

Prometheus
Coriolanus

Ilan Eshkeri’s score is heavily themed with a military style throughout, with a lot of percussion and driving rhythm and very little use of melodic instrumentation. More…

Coriolanus
Men In Black 3

Danny Elfman’s score for Men In Black 3 will sit well amongst an enthusiast’s collection, it might not be his best work, but is certainly worth a listen. More…

Men In Black 3
Shame

The soundtrack to Steve McQueen’s 2011 film, Shame, is a diverse compilation of tracks crossing several different musical genres that flows really well. More…

Shame
Battleship

Jablonsky’s score is highly repetitive with little musical development; its themes are reinforced with military style instrumentation, rhythms and bursts of electronic sound. More…

Battleship
The Cabin In The Woods

David Julyan’s score for The Cabin In The Woods combines traditional instrumentation with the use of Synthesizer for a dark but beautiful orchestral-electronic collection. More…

The Cabin In The Woods
Mirror Mirror

Composed by Alan Menken, the soundtrack to Tarsem Singh’s retelling of Snow White, Mirror Mirror, is delicate at times, dark at others and listenable throughout. More…

Mirror Mirror
Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace

John Williams’ soundtrack is epic with the variation of style, rhythm, pitch range, tension, release, continuity, coherence and shape making it a masterful work. More…
