Limited Edition Soundtrack score

My own Lossless CD rip



Film music fans may be surprised to learn that the score was provided by Mychael Danna, who is a complete stranger to the animation genre. Unsurprisingly, his score does not adhere to the clich�s of animation scores, avoiding the sort of mickey mousing and cutesiness that we�re all used to for this kind of thing. Oddly enough, his main theme feels like something from one of Philip Glass� documentary scores, it�s a really lovely and intelligent piece of writing. It shows up during several key emotional scenes during the film, and Danna also hands in a sizable amount of pleasant beach-flavored source music. There is currently no score release, and I�m not sure whether there�s enough score to merit one, but I�d certainly love to hear at least a handful of the cues from �Surf�s Up� on their own. Unfortunately, about half the movie is plagued with songs that don�t feel very natural to this material. Nothing against the likes of Pearl Jam, Lauren Hill, 311, or Incubus� but with the exception of the surfing classic �Wipe Out�, most of these tunes have a very tacked-on feeling. Still, maybe it�s the strength of Danna�s score that makes the rest of the soundtrack feel so weak. Jonathan Broxton - Movie Music UK

It's a pity no one has simply ripped it, because that's pretty simple ;)

It's that simple, because it has been published on Blu-ray/DVD. Just wait.

I haven't yet seen the movie (I want to!), so I'm wondering if this is complete? Anyone noticed any missing cues? Also, iTunes says this album was released back in January 2008... is it really a limited edition? And when did Jonathan Broxton write his review? I'm guessing before this was released...

Yep, limited to 1,000 units. Says it right on the spine, I'm viewing my physical copy :P

I would say there's still music missing on it, don't know exactly how much. Been a while since I saw the movie

Nice!

Would you recommend the film, btw?

Absolutely, it's an excellent animated feature. I mentioned the score in my top 10 in your poll. Like most animated scores, it's really something else.

Alright! Guess I should try to see it then. It's been on my watch list for a few years, but not at the top. That will change, however. ;)
