Yep... Super-Fast Broadband... just been upgraded.

just a question. Is this something official or not?

Does it matter ?.

There has only been one album licensed for sale, and that is the single cd album. That had 12 tracks, and this has 54 tracks. So this is not official.

And we consider any thing like that as an unofficial(bootleg).

I asked because I separate my stuff from official and unofficial. And I was curious if it was actually released a complete thing-

One of my favorite tracks of all the soundtrack are the Attacking Brides... I dont get why the released soundtrack a part in the middle was cut out when in the movie it is part of it. If I am not wrong his the Male choir part that was taken out in the official soundtrack. :/
But the cd is quite cool to listen.


We need a Castlevania movie.-...... Bring Stephen Sommers... bring Hugh Jackman....
I was soooo feeling Castlevania while watching this movie....
I am serious.

That's why complete scores are the better to get the full film versions of the score, unlike the original(official) releases, cause the tracks are chosen, edited, cutted, re-arranged and re-mastered..etc to fit the CD, no matter if they were the actual film versions or not, only asks to the composer.

But the original CD is not that big in length. Salt soundtrack, was perhaps the completest soundtrack I have seen. I continue to see the movie (maybe more then 10x) and I still don't feel like there is a missing track. And the soundtrack is almost 80minutes. with a difference of maybe 1 minute... or seconds-

You serious? no no... it's very tough today to get the complete one as an original release especially for long films, but you're right about Salt 90mins and the soundtrack is 80, Van-Helsing is about 120mins..and The Lord of the Rings over 180 mins..so what? and as i said before only composers do what they see!!! You know that even special releases like Man of steel 2 cd is about 120mins of (official) score but it doesn't include all the film versions you'd like to listen so only bootlegs can fit that.

I understand all of you (sounds weird saying it that way XD )

The complete soundtracks we can get, and it is asking too much, is japanese with soundtracks released for everything. 2 cds 3 4 cds... hell... 6 cds of soundtrack for end of eternity. I know I am comparing cheese with tomato here, but You know what I mean with this.
I do get that they release an incomplete soundtrack on purpose and depending in how the it's received they will release a "Kind of" complete soundtrack.
And then if they feel like, years later they will actually release a complete version, in which most of times, it has teh missing the music, but it is missing music that was already released. In these cases I feel like they are being jerk on us on purpose. I almost never buy a Score because of this. I download, if that speial track I love so much is on the soundtrack then it is worth my money. I remember I bought Animatrix Album, expecting to be there the most epic song from all the series, Juno Reactor's "Masters of the Universe", and it was not... At least the album was actually good to be listen so I did not felt like I waste money for nothing.
Buying Angels and Demons score was one of my best buys. I never saw the movies and I refuse to. I read the books. And I don't like Tom Hanks. And for me Angels and Demons had a better soundtrack work then Davinci Code, which I ended up hating that score. :/
The point is... Angles and Demons is working like an Album of Hans Zimmer, that just by chance has music from a movie. An album worked in that way, edited almost like an Image Album (referring to japanese culture again), it works fine with me... but a Proper Soundtrack would be mostly appreciated.
Both Hans Zimmer and Silvestry already know how much people like us like their music, and are willing to buy their released soundtracks.
It's almost very discouraging that issue of "support your artists" when they are not giving a damn about that or our requests.

In complete form the music isn�t particularly enjoyable. The relentless pounding gets on my nerves, the differences between soft and loud are awful. Though I have reduced the latter the music still suffers because of the movie it was composed for. Alan Silvestri surely did a fine job as he created highly functional and imaginative music. But on its own this score isn�t very good.

(...)This complete version plays worse compared to the official CD which is a nice, tight and cohesive overview of the score. I suggest to buy it at Amazon.

I have not heard forom start to end all of this..... But there are a lot of themed cues I really like. But then again, it's a matter of musical tastes.

We always are giving a GOOD DAMN and buying our favourite soundtrack albums cause we believe that's as a masterpiece no matter complete soundtrack or not, take my word i will buy my favourite soundtrack even it's only 30 minutes of score....;) hang on.. now the good thing we actually have today like Intrada and La-La-Land and their releases of old stuff with extra music so don't worry.. so when i saw The Lord of the Rings -the complete recordings editions, that's keep everything hopeful.

Silvestri is a guy with a musical education, a classical background, an understanding of the mechanics of the orchestra, the ability to write a good theme that serves the film and gets right under the skins of the characters and is a rollicking good listen on CD. He understands that scoring a film isn't just about synching up some music that superficially fits the scene.


For what it's worth, I'm glad the days of the 30 minute score album are gone - although there is something to be said for the album listening experience. I still find myself going back, for instance, to Jerry Goldsmith's London re-recordings in favour of more recent full score releases, simply because they were created explicitly to function outside of the film. I do relish having every bit of music though - as you say, if you have everything, you can simply disregard what you don't like.


Certainly a fresh recording would be welcome, which would allow for perhaps greater tweaking of the score...a reconceptualization into a concert work for an enjoyable and satisfying listening experience. Frankly, it's something I wish a lot more film composers would do... but of course it requires far more effort than just throwing all the cues onto a disc in chronological order and calling it a definitive presentation of the music.


The best scores transcend this humble goal by being structurally sound and sufficiently complex enough to enjoy outside the filmic context.


Music on an album is ALWAYS autonomous music. And that is the final litmus test: If it cannot stand on its own purely as a musical entity, it should never have been separated from the images and be put on a CD. It's a waste of everybody's time and money.

vs.


As Korngold is quoted as saying, film scores are "operas without words." I would argue this is the case whether the composer is writing for the London Symphony Orchestra or a guitar, cello, and flute trio. The music must support the dramatic underpinnings of the story.


Film scores are meant to be heard in harmony with all the other elements. Moreover, (except for musicals,) they are one of the last, if not the last, element added to the composition. While it is natural to evaluate film scores in a concert setting, it is impractical to compare the choices used for a symphony with the incomplete sound of a film score in isolation.

Film scores exist for two reasons, as a mood accent, and less known, as an audio 'glue,' that links the disparate visual elements of a scene. In both cases, they work a dance between the image and the sound. As other elements become more sophisticated; better cinematography, more nuanced camera movement, tighter (not necessarily faster) editing as well as richer sound beds, the music track needs to carry less of the load. Under certain cinematic circumstances, a richer score could actually be distracting. Add to that the insane compositional deadlines, and it is inevitable that scores would get simpler.

This may be a disappointment to those of us who love listening to scores at home, but they weren't written for us, and they shouldn't be.

Happy reading :'D

That's it, good "quotes" btw

I do get Herr Salat points in all his quotes.... but

Bottom Line....

I like this soundtrack. :)

Thanks a lot!

Thank you, bishtyboshty.

Thanks for the re-up on this one; this is easily one of my favorites from Silvestri. Couldn't get even a half hour through the movie before turning it off, but the score is loads of fun.

Thank you very much.

Thanks for the share.
