No David Arnold? Gee, I guess the film really is going to suck....

Thank you

Thanks!

Many Thanks !

brilliant! thank you!

Thank you

I'm sure Jeff Goldblum will save it somehow. :p

The main theme returned though

I mean, I'll watch anything that Jeff Goldbum is in... :laugh:

Presumably to maintain familiarity.

Thanks ...

Great! Thanks!

Thanks!

The score in the various clips released so far don't sound as generic as their usual stuff, so I'll give this one a listen to see what of Arnold's brilliant (and still my all-time favorite) score) they've retained.

I still hate that he wasn't even asked back. Big strike against this film, as the original film is probably my favorite movie as well.

Yes, INDEPENDENCE DAY is my favorite movie, and I have no guilt or shame in saying that. I've always loved it from its release date nearly 20 years ago to now.

EDIT:

14 tracks, in, on "It's a Trap" and it's pretty damned generic after all, but with a bit of fantasy and a modern sound...and NOT A TRACE of David Arnold's themes to be found. There's a theme, but it can't even touch Arnold's themes. I guess traces of the original are only in the "iD4 Reprise" track which would completely clash with the music in this score. Such a disconnect from what I can tell.

Disappointed, and that's what I was expecting anyway.

EDIT 2:

One little half-hearted attempt to use the main theme, on strings in "We Are Rich" before the aforementioned "iD4 Reprise" which is just a 2 minute quickie arrangement of the original film's end title fanfare before the alien theme took over.

All that iD4 Reprise track does is show what a lame score Kloser and Wander composed. It's a really good re-recording of Arnold's themes that puts this score to shame in a mere 2 minutes and 33 seconds.

Thank you.

I'm fairly sceptical here, but I'm definitely going to try this one out. Thank you again!

Oooh! Thanks!

ID4 is perfect, the score is perfect, the 2 will be perfect, can't wait to see it.

As I have ordered the CD I will wait and make a FLAC version.

Thank you!!!

THANKS for the share!

Thank you so much for sharing, I am looking forward to this movie-really liked the 1st one.

Thanks a lot!

I feel your pain. It is uninspiring.

last time i was so frustrated was when i got hemorrhoids . I geel that same pain right in the ass, arnold should have done it.
thank you anyway.

Wonderful! Thanks, Bart!

Gracias

Thanks Bart :)

thanks

It's a lame score, nothing compare to Arnold.

Spot on analysis. What a dog this score is. The original film is a dumb-but-cheesy-fun ride, and Arnold's score is at least half of the reason why. I've absolutely no desire to see this new film now; with music this uninspired, the film is likely to be unwatchable for me.

On another note, someone really needs to get Arnold a tent-pole blockbuster again. His voice is sorely missed.

Thank a million for the share!

thank you

Not looking forward to hearing this no doubt bland thing (thanks for the review JHFan) but thanks for uploading!

Thank you!

Thanks!

Thanks !

Many thanks!

Thanks.

thanks!

Thank you bro

thanks

Thank you!!

I agree- no David Arnold ? But many thanks for the upload

I agree, this soundtrack is flat, no emotion, nothing except ID4 reprise, so I canceled my order and I m afraid about the movie :-(

Thank You

Thanks!

I absolutely agree with your sentiments, JHFan. Seemingly, my worries over this score were well-placed. This score�upon first listen anyway�is quite bland. David Arnold�s score for Independence Day is among my favorites for a specific reason: it was earnest. In that earnestness was real humanity. All the bonkers on-screen crazy-go-nuts madness was offset by wonderfully patriotic, stirring music that took itself very seriously. I cherish the La La Land release, and listen to it often.

Wander�s/Kloser�s work here falls into the same traps so many modern scores do: brooding, pulsing noise, devoid of any character, that ultimately goes nowhere. I�m not entirely sure it means anything, but 22 score tracks, most no more than 1�30� was a red flag for me. I really wanted better!

But I�ll keep listening for now, just to see if it improves once I�m no longer appraising it in the wonderful shade of David Arnold�s massive shadow.

Anything that listed his name was speculation.

As I said before, David Arnold was NEVER asked. He said so himself on his twitter account last year.


If this score was NOT for the sequel to INDEPENDENCE DAY, it would be a perfectly serviceable action score with a hint of fantasy.

For a sequel to INDEPENDENCE DAY, this score had massive expectations from fans like us and it did not even try.

100% this. This new score is underwhelming one minute, then overwhelmingly cheesy the next. And bad cheese. Like B movie type stuff.

thank you!!!

Thank you for sharing this! :)

Thanks for the share.

What a bland score this is. We do actually get hints of Arnold's work in a few other tracks, besides the ones mentioned above. They're the ONLY good parts of the score. Hell, we don't even get a full end credits suite. We get a reprise of the first 2 minutes of Arnold's end credits from the first film, then it apparently segues into some crappy pop song. Disappointing.

This score is dreadful composed by 2 f�n hacks... dreadful stuff

Thanks

You're always awesome with your uploads. Thanks heaps for this. :)

Thank you!

fun fact: there are several movie clips and the same music featured there sounds very different on cd, much cheaperi think they rerecorded the score but the cd is mostly the unaltered worse version.we know for sure soon.

Thanks :)

Thanks Bart!

As much as I am surprised (Harald Kloser being that guy from that dull AvP film soundtrack) I actually like this. It sounds like something written in nineties for a new adventure cinema film of the period. As some of you I'm quite sentimental for Arnold's score but always considered Stargate to be his absolute peak, his Opus Magnum. And everything after that was just... ok. ID, James Bond stuff, even this Horner's style self rip-off that his music for third Narnia film was, all good work. Just far from the level Stargate represents.

Thanks a lot

Thank you

Thanks so much Bart Oss!!

Thank you!

Thank you! Really wish they brought David Arnold back on,but it is what it is. Not a bad score anyway, but a little too different for my taste.

thanks
