Enjoy!

thank you

Thanks!

dat chorus

Was not expecting that in a Bond film, at all.

My gosh! Donna Lucia is very beautiful.
Finally, Thomas Newman brought something brilliant this time. Wow!

I'd love to listen to complete longer version of this piece.

BTW, thanks for the preview. :)

I like that Newman is reusing some of SKYFALL's tunes. I hope we'll see some more reprisals, as long as its not overdone though. Like how Zimmer did with TDK trilogy.

Thanks!

Precisely the comparison I've been making to people complaining on Bond forums "OMG he's lazy he reused Skyfall".

Won't be surprised if one or two of Arnold's CR/QoS themes show up too.

I believe that's the full track.

Same here, I love it when composers re-use themes. Not in a lazy way, but in a way that makes the franchise feel musically unified.

Especially this is nice in the Craig films as they are to Bond what the Nolan films are to Batman - essentially.

Much appreciated! thanks a bunch

Given the way Zimmer writes scores (making suites and having RC people arranging them into a film), most of the work in Batman was purely arrangements (TDKR, for example, was mostly Lorne Balfe arranging Zimmer's suites). Only JNH wrote music by actually watching the film.

Thank you for this!

Thanks for the sampler! This sounds quite promising.!

Yeah SkyFall's score was a bit forgettable, and in fact I still think David Arnold should be brought back, but Thomas Newman has consistently been top tier for some three decades and amongst my most favorite! Glad Newman is branching outside of the comfort of his mastered prestige drama sandbox and continuing to diversify and refine!

Thank you so much for sharing the sampler!

It'd be interesting to see Newman use the Opera track from Quantum of Solace as SPECTRE's theme (The organization, not the film), or at least some variation of it.

You mean the 'Te Deum' act one finale from Puccini's Tosca - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgWW6o1y9xI

thanks for putting this up and WOW the bond theme going into chorus, now that's a new one!!

Love the fact that Thomas Newman is reprising his action material from the pre credits of skyfall where he just couldn't shut up (the car chase, bike chase, digger scene and train fight followed by some bloody tense scoring as bond was about to get shot off the train)

Nooooo...I mean, Night at the Opera. By David Arnold. I should have clarified that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsbXFm_NaSI

I like it when a composer reuses tunes from previous films they've scored. I thought it worked perfectly in TDKR. There was plenty of new material as well as all the original themes making plenty of appearances.

Now PotC 4 on the other hand, that is what I would call overdone.

Thanks for sharing.

Cool stuff!

Looking forward to listening to these.

Many thanks!

Nice!!!!

Great post - was at work so missed the programme. Many thanks!!

There were no themes in the TDK Trilogy... just random noise and ambience and consistant banging... only decent music was from James Newton Howard....



Can�t wait for Thomas Newman to be done with Bond....

Backfire sounds like something Zimmer would do... it�s shit... I long for the day Arnold returns

Thanks!

While at same time being overwrought and undercooked.

As for reusing themes, ah, John Williams & James Horner?

thanks for the samplers, sounds interesting

album release: 23rd october for UK & Germany on amazon :)

Thank you! Can't wait for the commercial release!

Stop hating, it's not healthy for you.

Hoping to listen to this today. Expecting good things of this score.

The full score album? Or just this sampler haha

These tracks are excellent - looking forward to the full album.
Thanks for the sampler!

I would like to know what is the matter with the Bond score albums in this Craig era. Quantum of Solace was the only score album to include the title song, and it was akwardly placed at the end of the album. A bond album without the title song was absolutely unthinkable befere, and now it is the thiird one already. I just don't buy those, and I have all the others. Don't they realize it is bad for business??

It's better for the business of the artist of the title song though ! The instrumental version of the title song is enough for me this time.....

So a heavily cut down version of the instrumental of Writing's on the Wall aired on Classic FM yesterday.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdPJ7pWctgM
