    rumour going round the corridors of the BBC that it is the reformed Blur, if true they are very capable


    I don't even need to listen to them to know they aren't doing it. If I haven't heard of them, it's not them. :P

    OH MY GOD Where we're you in the 90's Blur and Oasis were Brit pop. I'm honestly shocked you don't know who Blur are its almost like saying you haven't heard of the Kinks.

    I tend to listen to film scores more frequently than anything else, so I can appreciate that.

    No David Gilmour!!!

    He even has a solo album coming out around the time of Spectre's release.

    Gilmour has no interest in modern films and has cited in interviews so, he doesn't like the violence in contemporary cinema.

    Look he's probably my favourite musician from my all time favourite band but I just don't see the fit at all. I can't see Rattle The Lock having anything that would be suitable for Bond.

    Some things just don't fit and I've been a PF and DG fan long enough to know that Bond and fender bender Gilmour just sounds odd.

    I despair what 20 somethings have to get into in the world of new music when I was in my 20's I had the 90's, the last real creative and diverse decade where some of the greatest bands of the last 3 decades came to the forefront.

    There is no Blur, Radiohead, Massive Attack, Portishead, Nirvana or Pearl Jam to shake up the music scene now, The Arctic Monkeys ( look I've mentioned them) are about the last truly great band this country has produced.

    To think people think Sam Smith, Ed Sheeran & Ellie Goulding is the cream of the crop around now. Peoples tastes have really got worse but listening to music on little buds or horrendous quality lap top speakers doesn't help, plus people rarely listen to music and just that, they are either running, doing the housework or whatever distracts them.

    How can you appreciate music that way? No wonder people having fallen for all this bland crap around now. I have an MP3 but if I want to listen to music properly I fire up the turntable pull out some choice slices of vinyl kick back and immerse myself in it.

    I completely understand why there has been a revival in turntables and vinyl, yes there is the nostalgia factor but it's not just that, the quality for instance. People are realising that there is more to music than a digits and bytes and shuffling or whatever it is those plastic bit of crap do.

    Personally I'm 20 years or more going strong buying vinyl, there is no better way to enjoy music out there if you truly are a fan of the medium.

    Oh boy, here we go. Music is subjective and most opinions on music are dictated facist-like by people born 1985+ because they simple are nostalgic towards their own music and therefore anything after "sucks". I'm sure your parents don't like your music, nor do your grandparents like your parents music. Electric guitars used to be shameful to music as well. Hell, even simply recording music used to be shameful too. I can see the appeal in vinyl, as I can appreciate it's limitations but vast quality (just like film is to digital). However you can't deny that a lossless mp3 is truly the way to experience it as closely to live as possible.

    Modern days have simply lead on a dis-importance to lyrics, that's really what most people are complaining about. I don't see anything wrong with colourful but lyrics that aren't "important". Many generations have grown up with an importance on lyrics. TBH I find older music a little bit blander, and I don't really care much for lyrics in the first place (as a fan of soundtracks and classical). New music isn't so much about lyrics but rather the actual sound of music, and it sounds great and fresh to me. I don't see why classical music over a party is so proper, but club music is a sin compared to music pre 2000. If you really want an emphasis on lyrics, there is an abundance of it, just not most of it mainstream.

    Here's a comparison:



    Call me crazy, but I prefer the second.

    I don't understand why people like the Arctic Monkeys. The main singer sounds like a high muppet and they're too indie. [/quote]

    LOL. Thank you for the laugh, DominicGreene. I needed that. :))

    Rock, Pop, Dance, Instrumental, RnB, Hip Hop, Rap, Funk, Jazz

    These are all just pidgeon holes record companies and media use to sell it. There are really only two types of music, good music and bad music and it is an individual choice on what they consider to be good music or bad music.

    Every era has it's great musical sounds. Robert Johnson, Duke Ellington, Andrews Sisters, Miles Davis, Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Beatles, Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, The Who, Bob Dylan, Bob Marley, Toots & The Maytalls, U2, Duran Duran, R.E.M., Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Caro Emerald, Stromae, Christine & The Queens, Empire Of The Sun...

    Subjective of course. I am fan of The Rolling Stones, never get tired of their rich and full sound and musical genres. But I still discover new music every now and then that I love. I like electro swing (Parov Stelar, Caro Emerald), some dance, classical, soundtracks, disco, blues, world, Dutch music (De Dijk), rock, rock & roll, reggae, jazz, pop...

    What is different in the digital era we now live in is I listen a lot to self made playlists, based on genres or my own judgement (giving stars), rather than an complete album (sometimes I do though, listening a complete album). It's just the phase I live in now. Maybe later on in my life I will play my vinyl records again, but just not now. I can truly appreciate great music, grooves, sounds, rhythms, etc. And I listen to them digitally. Of course it's not the all best way listening to music (I have decent Hifi components by Sony and JVC and Sony three way speakers), but it does the job for me and it is very acceptable in my life right now.

    The chances of a band doing a theme are slim. Only 3 out of 21 were done by a band (Duran Duran, A-Ha, Garbage) so as much as I'm hoping for Muse, I'm not holding my breath and counting to 10. My heart will burst before that happens

    Muse would be an incredible coup and incredible sound for Bond as it has been discussed many times there labels lack of tie in with Sony probably rules them right out. As I have said before and as for all films made under MGM/Sony tie in to the franchise it has been a Sony / Sony sub label artist who has been given the job.

    Thanks for the info. Well let's hope Sony loses the gig and WB gets it as Muse are under WB :)

    How long has it been like this for? And was it like this before Sony?

    Only Since since 2004 when Sony bought out MGM's studio business for $3 Billion. The first film which it had a bearing on was Casino Royale 2006 that was the first Bond in which Sony had their say, hence M's laptop Bond looks at in her apartment is Vaio and the official phone of the film is a Sony, and from the leaked emails it seems Sony really love to push their own brands through the movies.

    Chris Cornell - YKNMN - A&M universal Records (Owned by the Sony Corp after the bought out BMG.)

    Jack White - Columbia/ XL both Sony Subs /Alisha Keyes - Sony/Columbia

    Adele - Columbia/ XL both Sony subs

    History of the modern film show artists from Columbia and in particular XL recordings are getting the job.


    Here is some of their artists

    ADELE
    Atoms For Peace
    Bobby Womack
    Dizzee Rascal
    East India Youth
    FKA twigs -(Previous rumours to sing an Adele written song for Bond 24)
    Friendly Fires
    Giggs
    Gil Scott-Heron
    Gil Scott-Heron & Jamie xx
    Ibeyi
    Jack Peñate
    Jack White
    Jai Paul
    Jamie xx
    Jungle
    King Krule
    Låpsley
    M.I.A.
    Novelist x Mumdance
    Radiohead
    Ratatat
    RATKING
    Sampha
    SBTRKT
    Shamir
    Sigur Rós
    The Horrors
    The Prodigy
    The White Stripes
    The xx
    Thom Yorke
    Tyler, The Creator
    Vampire Weekend


    Xl recordings CEO is Richard Russell in 2013 he worked iwth Damon Albarn from Blur on a project resulting in the Album Everyday Robots, which gives more credibility to the Blur rumours with Albarn being Blur's front man.

    The sony products in the films makes sense but I have to add that their association goes back as far as OP when they are viewing footage of OP's circus from the hot air balloon on Sony monitors. I wonder if it stretches further back

    Sony has always been big on product placement, but what a fun game. Go out and find the first Bond film where something with the SONY appears. ;0)

    On further digging it was Columbia who bought out MGM's studio business with their parent company Sony's money

    "after United Artists was retired as a mainstream studio. From 2006 to present MGM and Columbia Pictures have co-distributed the film series, following the 2005 acquisition of MGM by a consortium led by Columbia's parent company, Sony Pictures Entertainment. In November 2010 MGM filed for bankruptcy; following its emergence from insolvency, Columbia has been co-production partner of the series with Danjaq"

    Would further explain the continual Columbia realted artists who have sang on Themes in the Craig Era.

    Going to Throw a curve ball from left field, not someone who has been suggested so far, but had recent chart success, is on Columbia and fits the criteria met by other artists who have been selected to do the theme during the Craig Era - John Legend

    There's a Sony TV monitor in the Toyota in YOLT. They've had a reasonably longstanding product placement relationship with Sony.
