FinnDave Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Is it too blindingly obvious to mention Ry Cooder's work on Paris Texas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameronj279 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 There are so many amazing soundtracks but one that really stood out to me was Daft Punks Tron Legacy soundtrack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambient Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 [quote name='gjones' timestamp='1421272283' post='2659341'] I regularly listen to the Bladerunner soundtrack. It's very atmospheric. [media]http://youtu.be/2x3UNHNo1LA[/media] Oh and don't forget The soundtrack to 'Superfly' by Curtis Mayfield. A work of funky genius. [media]http://youtu.be/9hBE6NL3KWg[/media] [/quote] Oooh, while I'm not into Curtis Mayfield at all, I do really like the Bladerunner soundtrack, it's one of my favourite films too. That looks veeeeerrry cool on crimson vinyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilco Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 [quote name='Drax' timestamp='1421278655' post='2659466'] More recently Daft Punk - Tron was pretty good [/quote] +1 for the Tron 2 soundtrack. Daft Punk nailed it. Completely awful film though..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Great shout, I need to revisit that. While I remember - Eddie Vedder wrote a solo acoustic soundtrack for the indie film 'Into The Wild' which has some lovely tracks on it.

ubit Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 No country for old men. Great soundtrack! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japhet Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Desperado is the only soundtrack I regularly listen to. From Dusk til Dawn is similar (Tito and Tarantula). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highfox Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) The Harder they come. A clockwork orange. Halloween (78) The ones I have listened to the most. Edited January 15, 2015 by Highfox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bo0tsy Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 +1 for the Tron Legacy Daft Punk soundtrack. A lot of John Carpenter's original electronic scores are great (Halloween, Assault of Precinct 13, The Fog, Escape from New York and The Thing - though think this is Ennio Morricone). I also love both of Carlito's Way soundtracks (the 70's tunes and the Patrick Doyle haunting original score), & also like a lot of other thriller type dramatic soundtracks: Bernard Hermann: Cape Fear, Psycho, North by Norhwest Vertigo, Marnie, Day the Earth Stood Still, Twisted Nerve as well as Pino Donaggio - in particular his work with Brian De Palma on Carrie, Dressed to Kill, Raising Cain, Passion, Blow Out and Body Double - all great soundtracks. Lastly 2 more De Palma scores - Snake Eyes and Femme Fatale by Ryuichi Sakamoto are really quite something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bo0tsy Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 ...And I completely forgot some of the incredible Blaxploitation soundtracks : Shaft, Truck Turner, Superfly, Across 110th Street, Trouble Man, Coffey and Black Caesar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykesbass Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Added brilliantly to the feel and tension of the film: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpqDW1XbGpU"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpqDW1XbGpU[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassace Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Once Upon a Time in America by Enrico Morricone is great and complements the film very well - IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilbo Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Howard Shore's Lord Of The Rings soundtracks are one hell of an achievement. I am less enamoured of the Hobbit series but they have their moments. I also like Leonard Rosenman's soundtrack for Ralph Bakshi's 1978 version of LOTR Pat Metheny - A Map Of The World is beautifully paced Mike Oldfield - The Killing Fields. Strangely powerful Javier Navarrete - Pan's Labyrinth. Haunting Terence Blanchard - Malcolm X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philboyo Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Van Helsing - Hugh Jackman and Kate Beckinsale Bit of a love it or leave it film but I do like the music http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_Helsing_(soundtrack) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lou24d53 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 The soundtrack to "Hannibal" by Hans Zimmer...pretty sh*t film, but hauntingly awesome soundtrack. Other obvious ones like PulpFiction" and "Trainspotting". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 The first soundtrack album I was aware of - Easy Rider - my dad had it on tape. Introduced me to Jimi Hendrix, Steppenwolf, The Byrds, (the music of) The Band etc. Some cracking tracks on the extended deluxe edition too: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easy_Rider_(soundtrack) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumple Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 [quote name='Big_Stu' timestamp='1421277549' post='2659457'] I bought the OST to a film called "Uptight" not very long ago. It was the only recording I could find that had the original unedited version of "Time Is Tight" on, which was how Booker T originally wrote it. The track has a melancholic intro and play out on it [/quote] Pretty sure I have that single on vinyl somewhere, I must did it out, not that I have a record player to play it on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The fasting showman Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 The Harder they come, so many great songs on that soundtrack. Blue Collar - Jack Nitzsche / Ry Cooder, great to hear Howlin' Wolf in the songs used too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
