must listen movie original sound track

[nastyandy]

[Analyst]

I really liked the Village soundtrack by James Howard Newton featuring violinist Hilary Hahn. It has amazingly haunting quality about it coupled with a 19th century Pennsylvania Quaker touch.

On the anime soundtracks, Ghost the Shell's score by Yoko Kanno was excellent. The title track chant was also sampled on a drum & bass record produced by Makai called Beneath the Mask. Awesome track for anyone that used to listen to jungle or drum&bass about 6-7 years ago.

Danny Elfman's Edward Scissorhands sountrack also stands out.

As for compilations:

In Good Company - for the Trapeze Swinger by Iron and Wine and other Sam Beam tunes

Garden State - for various Postal Service, Iron and Wine, Shins, etc.

All Tarentino soundtracks for that matter.

Friday Night Lines - which was scored by Austin band Explosions in the Sky. Lots of subtle layered soundscapes. Either you love it or hate it.

Garden State - for various Postal Service, Iron and Wine, Shins, etc.

All Tarentino soundtracks for that matter.

sorry analyst, I have to disagree with the Garden state soundtrack, i thought it was terrible...

tarentino on the other hand...always good.

surprised no one has mentioned this gem.

despite better a mediocre movie, i'll still say this is one hell of a compilation of bands/songs.

the cure, nine inch nails covering joy division, JAMC, violent femmes, etc. very good for what it was.

[GiZMO]

After watching 28 Days Later, I needed more of its chill music.

Kill Bill 1 & 2, great variety of music.

Oh of course the Toko Drift soundtrack.

[holotekor]

Requiem for a dream

[Tisswat]

Garden State - for various Postal Service, Iron and Wine, Shins, etc.

I agree with you Analyst. That soundtrack was my first introduction to The Shins actually.

Also: 24 Hour Party People with The Sex Pistols, The Buzzcocks, A Guy Called Gerald, Joy Division and more of Manchester's finest.

It's an indie movie, and the music is like a late-70's, folk rock thing, but it's pretty good and original at least.

In the mood for love

2046

+1

WKW movie soundtracks really do it for me for instrumentals with strong emotions/thoughts attached.

Chungking Express

Fallen Angels (of course)

Ashes of Time

Days of Being Wild

i also love the soundtrack for Last Life in the Universe (directed by Pen-Ek Ratanaruang), subtle but vitally casted the perfect vibes for this film's mood. i highly recommend this film http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_Life_in_the_Universe

[FootlooseSF]

Taxi Driver OST - Bernard Herrmann. I can't believe no one mentioned it! It's so haunting! Almost anything Henry Mancini ( The Pink Panther, Charade, Breakfast At Tiffany's, Touch Of Evil).

[FootlooseSF]

Oh my, how could I forget Max Steiner?! The soundtrack for "A summer Place" is one of my all-time favorites!

[JimJones86]

I would say Virgin Suicides, the whole soundtrack is by AIR.

Kill Bill and Pulp Fiction are great picks too.

[buffalocloud7]

Sofia Coppola's soundtracks are fucking great.

i agree! air in the virgin suicides was so perfect!

also love the beyond rangoon soundtrack (very chill)

life aquatic too

[corporategrunt]

25th Hour - some nice tracks

Love the Hard Way - no OST sold but good music - qualtiy of the movie is questionable

"reflections" by bill conti. good stuff indeed (doesn't make me want to slug anyone though).

[AstroWolf]

Shawshank redemption is a dramatic but great ST.

[wEstSidE]

1492, Vangelis killed it with that hot shit.

Assault on Precinct 13 (original) - hot fire HOOOOJ CHOONS

Beverly Hills Cop - we all know this had the tru hooj choon.

[superdupersang]

reviving a dead thread,

just watched red belt.

great film but the final song blew me away,

googling led me to some the director, David Mamet and hes done a ton of things, including ronin, glenngary glennross, wag the dog, which i also liked.

actually his fillms has a modern japanese feel about them.

sparse (but not zen coz i hate that BS califonication term)

anyway, tried to find the ost as a torrent but its not up yet so making do with downloading stuff by rebecca pidgeon, luciana souza,

and rebecca pidgeon is married to david mamet.
