Snow Files of the Week: "Chernobyl/Saviour" aus "MillenniuM", Episode "Maranatha" (1997). Diese Folge aus der ersten Staffel dringt weiter in den mystischen "story arc" der Serie ein. Frank Black sieht sich konfrontiert mit Yaponchik, dem russischen "schwarzen Mann" sozusagen. Der Anfang der Folge zeigt die Reaktorkatastrophe in Tschernobyl 1986. Yaponchik verlässt kurz vor der Explosion das Gelände, scheinbar hat er sie verursacht. Später in der Folge erfüllt sich auch noch eine biblische Prophezeiung, als Yaponchik eine eigentlich tödliche Schussverletzung am Kopf überlebt. Am Ende kann er entkommen, er flieht in einem Hubschrauber, der die Kennnummer 666 trägt. Marks Musik ist episch und groß. Fast so, als wolle er den großen Bibel-Epen der 50er und 60er Jahre nacheifern, durchsetzt er seinen Score mit einem großen Chor, der den ewigen Kampf zwischen Gut und Böse untermalt. Die meiste Zeit über benutzt er den großen Chor, um Yaponchiks Thema zu transportieren, während ein sanfter Chor Frank bei seinem Kampf gegen das Böse begleitet, wie man es zu Beginn des Tracks "Saviour" hören kann. Die Stücke stammen vom ersten Volume der Musik aus "MillenniuM", welches von LLL 2008 limitiert auf 2.000 Stück veröffentlicht wurde. Das Set war dann zwei Jahre später ausverkauft, bevor es limitiert auf 1.000 Stück noch einmal veröffentlicht wurde. Auch die zweite Auflage ist ausverkauft. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

Laut Beltrami hat sich bisher kein Label gemeldet. Nicht mal Varese, die bisher alle Scream-Scores veröffentlicht haben.

Intrada announces a unique score from composer Charles Fox for the Paramount sci-fi horror film Bug. While Fox is often known for his melodic and effervescent style of scoring, this project offered an opportunity to provide a stark contrast to his usual trademark sound. The score is entirely performed on the Moog synthesizer, the only one in the composer's output. Fox was among the first composers to purchase a Moog directly from its creator. “It was so new that there was no instruction manual yet. It came with 13 oscillators for sounds, and you just had to figure it out!” he remarked. The result is a score that is unmistakably computer-like with percussive motifs that vividly convey 1970s state-of-the-art blinking buttons, whirling tapes and screen displays spinning out information. Except in this film the thinking machines working and evolving in tandem are the roaches. It’s this cutting-edge sound (at the time) that puts Bug in worthy experimental company along side Gil Mellé’s high-tech synth approach to his score for The Andromeda Strain. The atonality of the score is profound, leading Fox to recommend to Intrada that "there should be an advisory with the score that it not be played at a dinner party." But check it out for yourself in this trailer. The album was produced by Dan Goldwasser, mastered by Doug Schwartz, and features liner notes by Daniel Schweiger. In the film, a series of earthquakes releases a species of ancient cockroaches from deep underground. These insects have an unusual ability to ignite fires through a chemical reaction in their bodies. As the bugs multiply and begin causing deadly fires, a college entomologist, Dr. James Parmiter, studies them and discovers they may be evolving rapidly and developing a form of intelligence. His obsession with understanding and controlling the creatures ultimately leads to dangerous consequences as the situation spirals out of control. THE SCORE 01. Trail Of Fire (0:50) 02.

LLL hat normalerweise nur die Lizenz für die physischen Veröffentlichungen. Die Streaming-Lizenzen bleiben meist beim Rechteinhaber. Und der entscheidet dann, ob die Musik auch auf den einschlägigen Streaming-Portalen erscheint. Es gibt ein paar Ausnahmen, das war dann ein spezieller Deal. Wenn ich mich recht erinnere, konnte LLL beispielsweise auch einen der Transformers-Scores, den sie auf CD gebracht haben, auf die Streaming-Portale bringen. Oder es läuft eben über den Rechteinhaber, wie beispielsweise Amazon.

Snow Files of the Week: "The New Life/Resolution", aus dem TV-Film "Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All" (1994). Dieser Score ist ein weiterer Beweis dafür, dass Mark durchaus mit einem Orchester umgehen kann. Seine schwelgerischen Melodien und ein zauberhaftes Hauptthema für Solo-Violine machen den Score zu einem schönen Hörerlebnis. Der Score wurde 1994 von Milan Records auf CD veröffentlicht. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

Ebenfalls neu von Quartet: Quartet Records, in collaboration with MovieScore Media, presents a new score by the renowned Academy-Award winner composer Stephen Warbeck (SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE, QUILLS, BILLY ELLIOT, THE MAN IN THE HAT) for a film directed by Gaby Dellal. Starring Fiona Shaw and Katherine Waterston, the story is about Charlotte, who—paralyzed by her life as a cattle rancher—flees her controlling husband and returns to her mother’s apartment. There, she rediscovers her teenage love and the life she left behind. Now, mother and daughter must confront hidden truths. Stephen Warbeck’s music for PARK AVENUE is conceived as an intimate and slightly eccentric score, always remaining within the emotional range of the story. The recording features an ensemble made up of a combination of musicians from both jazz and classical music, giving the score a hybrid texture and diverse interpretive sensibility, with performances by double bassist Lars Danielsson and cellist Nick Cooper standing out.

Quartet Records, in collaboration with Paramount Pictures, presents a remastered and expanded 2-CD deluxe edition of COP LAND, the cult soundtrack composed by Howard Shore in 1997 during one of the most creative periods of his career, following such classic scores as THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, SEVEN, M BUTTERFLY, ED WOOD, CRASH and LOOKING FOR RICHARD, among many others. Written and directed by James Mangold, the film features an impressive cast, including Sylvester Stallone, Robert De Niro, Harvey Keitel and Ray Liotta. Stallone plays a sheriff in a suburban New Jersey community populated by New York City police officers, who slowly discovers that the town is a front for mob connections and corruption. Howard Shore composed a dramatic and intense score with fatalistic, heroic and emotional elements, showcasing his ability to elevate human conflicts to epic proportions through music. The score for COP LAND was released on a 40-minute album by Milan Records in 1997, but it was far from complete. It strangely omitted the powerful and robust music composed for the end credits (“Back to Work” on our album), one of Shore’s most impressive compositions. The re-editing of the film and changes in the studio criteria led Shore to rewrite and adapt a large part of his score, of which an additional 30 minutes or so can be found in the bonus tracks section on the second disc. The original album included unique mixes and edits, so we have kept it intact and remastered. Performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra under the composer’s baton, this album has been painstakingly produced by Dan Goldwasser, mixed and mastered by Chris Malone, and entirely supervised and approved by Mr. Shore. The package includes an in-depth essay by film music writer Jeff Bond. DISC 1.

Music by Mark Mancina Limited Edition of 3000 Units STARTS SHIPPING MID-MARCH La-La Land Records and Sony Pictures celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the 1995 blockbuster big-screen action/comedy BAD BOYS, starring Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, and directed by Michael Bay, with this remixed, remastered and expanded limited edition 2-CD re-issue of acclaimed composer Mark Mancina’s iconic original motion picture score. Mark Mancina’s (SPEED, TWISTER, TARZAN) exhilarating action score to the film SPEED established the composer as a fresh and notable musical voice, making him the perfect choice for BAD BOYS, a bold and exciting new take on the battle-tested buddy-cop/action formula. Mancina expertly harnesses superstars Will Smith and Martin Lawrence’s explosive comedic and dramatic chemistry, along with Director Michael Bay’s high-octane action mayhem, creating a legendary work that helped change and influence action film scoring into the 21st century and one that still serves as the musical thematic foundation of the entire BAD BOYS franchise decades later. La-La Land’s original 2007 single disc CD release of BAD BOYS was compromised by the only available music elements at that time, resulting in some of that release’s program in mono. Now presented in full stereo for the first time, this all-new remastered and expanded 2-CD re-issue is a major upgrade in both sonic quality and content, finally allowing Mancina’s work to shine in all its brilliance! Produced by Stéphane Humez and mixed and mastered by Maxime Marion from newly discovered 32-track digital masters, this deluxe presentation of BAD BOYS features the film score presentation on Disc One and Bonus Tracks on Disc Two. Limited to 3000 Units, this release’s exclusive liner notes are by writer Kaya Savas and include new interviews with composer Mark Mancina and additional composer Nick Glennie-Smith. The sharp art design is by Dan Goldwasser. TRACK LISTING: DISC 1 SCORE PRESENTATION 1. Funky Logo – Car Jacking 3:39 2. Bad Boys Main Title – The Heist* 6:11 3. Funky Brothers To P.D. 0:38 4.

Music by Trevor Rabin Limited Edition of 2000 Units La-La Land Records and Sony Pictures proudly present the official world premiere 2-CD limited edition release of renowned composer Trevor Rabin’s (ARMAGGEDON, DEEP BLUE SEA, NATIONAL TREASURE) original motion picture score to the 2003 blockbuster big-screen action/comedy BAD BOYS II, the first sequel in the powerhouse BAD BOYS franchise, starring Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, and directed by Michael Bay. The long-awaited re-teaming of Will Smith, Martin Lawrence and Michael Bay for BAD BOYS II would notably up the scope, scale and action of the original film and composer Trevor Rabin rises to the challenge with a breathtaking behemoth of an action score. Teeming with propulsive original material and themes, Rabin unleashes all-new musical adrenaline, with subtle nods honoring BAD BOYS composer Mark Mancina’s original main theme. This 2-CD deluxe presentation marks the first official release of Rabin’s BAD BOYS II in any format! Produced by Stéphane Humez and edited and mastered by Maxime Marion from studio vault elements, this deluxe presentation of BAD BOYS II features the film score presentation, including additional score by Steve Jablonsky on both CDs, while a massive bounty of Bonus Tracks is featured on Disc Two, including Mark Mancina’s unused demo for this sequel – a rearrangement of his original, iconic BAD BOYS theme!

Snow Files of the Week: "Damascus/The Subject", aus "MillenniuM", Episode "Owls" (1998). Als Mitglieder der MillenniuM-Gruppe in einer Moschee in Damaskus ein Stück Holz finden, welches zu dem Kreuz gehörte, an dem Jesus gestorben ist, entzweit sich die Gruppe in zwei Parteien: die "Eulen" und die "Hähne". Während die "Eulen" nicht an die Apokalypse mit dem Jahr 2000 glauben, sondern daran, dass das Jahr 2000 nur der Start von kosmischen Ereignissen ist, die erst knapp 60 Jahre später Auswirkungen haben werden, sind die "Hähne" davon überzeugt, dass das Ende nahe ist. Noch komplizierter wird es, als eine dritte Partei hinter dem Stück Holz her ist: das Projekt „Odessa", welches einst von den Nazis ins Leben gerufen wurde, um auf der ganzen Welt nach religiösen und machtvollen Objekten zu suchen. Marks Musik untermalt nicht nur die Szenen in Damaskus, als die Mitglieder der Gruppe sich wegen des Stück Holzes gegenseitig töten, sondern gibt der Folge auch eine religiöse Tonalität in dem Stück „The Subject". Diese Tracks stammen vom ersten Set mit MillenniuM-Musik von LLL, welches 2008 veröffentlicht wurde. Die erste Auflage war auf 2.000 Stück limitiert und war 2010 dann ausverkauft. 2015 wurde das Set wieder aufgelegt, dieses Mal limitiert auf nur noch 1.000 Stück. Auch diese Auflage ist ausverkauft. Viel Spaß beim Hören!
