(I'm also presuming Message from an Old Friend / Square Escape must be pretitles action).
I couldn't have put it better myself, the contrast of how I felt anticipating SPECTRE having got some insight due to the leaks is night and day.
I said it to @peter that there is so much for us to learn, EON apart from this score leaking have kept this as tight as a drum and when I walk into my IMAX screening 12pm 30/09 I'm going to have so much to surprise me.
Zimmer has done us proud and far from a rush job that some feared when he was bought on late in the game, I did say back then that he'd likely been attached to this earlier than when it was announced and I remember someone saying that HZ mentioned about working on a top secret project when they saw him in concert and that was late 2019 if I remember rightly.
This indeed looks like it is going to be one thrilling roller coaster ride of a film, Craig will bow it in style and do something that neither Connery or Moore could do.
Yep, that's exactly my point ;) OP asked how much more score we'll get in the film besides what we heard in the soundtrack, so I guess that we might get over an hour of extra music.
I just recorded them through Audacity, hope it's okay.
=))
Then I hope they don't delete the page so nobody can't listen at all.
Or don't download at all.
Oh yes, that's why I said stream more as just a general thing if anyone is worried about just streaming it :) Not downloading it!! I had to edit to clarify haha.
EDIT: Should also add, if you are going to download it, they're digitally watermarked so a VPN would not save you. Don't download it.
Claaaay…. Bill, Clay.
From start to finish, Hans Zimmer delivers on *all* fronts. I lovr love LOVE how incorporates interpolations of the Bond theme - in parts and in full - throughout various points of the score; action cues are top notch, and there is one action theme in particular which reminds me of classic John Barry soundtracks from the past. Speaking of the maestro himself, yes, there are quotes of musical cues which I found tastefully done.
I could also hear some callbacks to Thomas Newman, a little bit of David Arnold…and dare I say, a few moments that sounded reminiscent of Eric Serra’s GoldenEye score (and given what we know of NTTD’s villain, this makes perfect sense). Heck, I’m even reminded of The Incredibles as well, with the brass - bold, dynamic, and sinister
I’ll also say that you can feel the flavor and character of the music which has a life of its own; there are percussive and woodwind elements in Zimmer’s NTTD score, and the standout track, to me - “Cuba Chase” - is just so dang fun, dangerous, and playful and I really can’t wait to see how it’s handled in the film. Johnny Marr’s guitar is sprinkled throughout, and there’s one instance in the soundtrack that definitively says “Bond. Is. Back”.
Honestly, if i had to rank this soundtrack among my top 10 it’s up there, and #1 as far as the Craig films go, mainly because of the cohesiveness and personality (above Skyfall, Quantum of Solace, Casino Royale, and Spectre in that order).
Right! GE is one of my favorite soundtracks, and hearing that sound carried over from there to NTTD, although brief, was great.
I do. Breathtaking stuff. Hans Zimmer really brought his A+ game to this film. The other John Barry callback was *perfection*.
If they do, I'll PM the recordings to you guys.
