Thomas Bergersen – American Dream (Continuous Mix) FLAC

Third album of his that came out this year. FLAC. Due to the zippyshare file size limitations, here is only the "Continuous Mix", a.k.a. the whole album as one track.

However, it was written in a manner of a film score with themes and variations constantly returning during the play. It is literally the same as the following tracks 2-19, only in form of suite, no musical material lost.

What I can add from myself, I kind of hate trailer music and never was a fan of Two Steps From Hell. Bergersen’s solo work always felt in the same way: too bombastic and over-the-top, sometimes too bland and generic, too many electronic elements etc. (apart from a few generally awesome cues here and there). But this album has finally sold me: great Americana, a-la Horner/Williams/old school Disney magic. I’m really impressed!

The writing, the much more classical approach, the details in part-writing, orchestrations. Yes, it’s massive, but it doesn’t sound like Zimmer: not loud, not abnoxious. The problem with western composers (Remote Control) is that their music sounds like it was made on computer using samples and synths (it was), and then transcribed to orchestra, instead of being written for an orchestra in the first place. This is not the case here.

Thanks for the link.

warning! There is today no lossless version available! Mr. Bergersen want to upload the lossless version later this year.

It’s the official version, like it or not. All of his albums sound like crap: upscaled and overly compressed, not just this one.

no, there is no official FLAC-Version. There is only a official upscaled mp3-Version. (upscaled from 128kps mp3 to 320kps mp3)

Tidal release…

It’s the official version, like it or not.

the official version (so far) is NOT lossless even if it is released as FLAC….if you look at the frequencies you can see that it is mastered from a lossy source…
the composer has been made aware of this situation and promised that a real lossless version will appear later this year…
so unless your upload is from that newer version it is still the lossy flac….
not your fault, of course…

Strange. Shouldn’t take that long for him to address something like this. Unless the problem goes all the way back to his own source materials; a problem he can only fix by rerecording the whole thing.

Sounds promising!
