|
Equilibrium, for those of you who have seen it, is an amazingly unknown, low budget movie, but that aside, it is an amazing movie nonetheless, and the soundtrack is excellent. Here's a review for more information. It is completely synthesized, but emphasizes so much power and majestic righteousness with the score that it gives me chills when I'm in the right mood.
Here's the catch. It was never for sale in the US and is no longer being produced worldwide either. I am here to not only gain support for this score, but also to ask the moderators for this one exception to their policy and accept a non-original CD as submission to the playlist.
Anyway, I consider this to be one of Klaus Badelt's best works and an amazing score to boot. Minor choral work, low ominous strings, and a percussion track that hints of the Matrix without being too overbearing. Vote it in!

No unofficial releases. No exceptions that I can think of. However, if you have a legitimate release I'm sure that it can be put through the normal acceptance process.

Judging from the review that Auroter included, it appears that this score has only been released as a promo album. So even if someone did manage to get a hold of an original copy, I'm not sure if it can legally be added to the playlist.
Even so, that was a very good post, Auroter. I'll keep an eye out for any official releases of this score and report them here if I find any. _________________ "You have been chosen to represent Earth in Mortal Kombat. Be warned.

No promo albums on the playlist either. (Think "RIAA sanctioned only").

i'm not convincved the music is a great score. nothing that great. the movie is top and the music for the film is well suited, but music on its own, its not.
very similar could be said about blade by isham. crap album but works very well for the film. i'm still not convinced either that alot of the cool music in the film went on the album. |

I disagree. I thought the music was excellent and definately deserves an offical release. _________________ "Are you not entertained? Are you not entertained? Is this not why you are here?." -Maximus

No official release? I'd be outraged if it weren't for my legally required dose. Now I'm just a step below mellow.
