    Nice! Love the use of the EoN soundtrack at the end.

    Very nice @Murdock. I am not a fan of Newman's scoring for the post-tracking shot in the SP PTS (the tracking shot music is first class though). I much prefer the orchestra in your rescore.

    Thank you @bondjames, I agree with you completely. I'm glad you enjoyed my rescore. :)

    Thank you! That's where I thought it would play before I even saw the movie. I was bummed out when it wasn't in it. :))

    Truly fantastic. The pace, style and tone of the music fits the scene perfectly. It's also a significant improvement over the original-- it sounds majestic, whereas the original feels inconsequential by comparison. I also like how the descending trumpet phrase syncs up with the camera panning down in that building shot. Well done, @Murdock!

    Thanks! The best rescores for me are the ones where the music fits the scene like a glove. It all fell to place perfectly. :-bd

    Great work, @Murdock! The track seems to fit perfectly to the pace of the camera movements, and images on screen. Interesting you should use this scene, actually. Shanghai Drive is the only track I really enjoy from the Newman soundtracks.

    That's great! What's the name of the original track?

    @Walecs It's a track without a name but you can find it here. :D

    It’s rather incredible just how well that track fits that scene. Much as I like Newman’s Shanghai Drive this one is better. It’s actually almost beat for beat perfect for the on screen action.

    I wish we could send the video to the composer.

    I'd love to know who the composer of that piece was. It was an excellent track.

    It resembles a bit of Kevin Kiner’s efforts heard in 007 Legends. The beats were somewhat similar to that of the main menu themes for Activision-published Bond video games.

    That it does in some respects. Here's my newest rescore. The bike chase scene from Never Say Never Again featuring music from Agent Under Fire.

    TWINE Gunbarrel without the drum and synth elements.


    Moonraker Freefall with Detonation.


    Spectre Car Chase featuring music from Batman and Robin.

    That MR rescore does add tension, but of course it becomes awkward when Jaws starts buffooning.

    I recently rescored the Skyfall casino fight.

    Just did this one. With so many allusions to OHMSS packed in TWINE right down to where it got its title, I figure this makes sense.
