Mr. Dinogio has NOTHING to worry about!
Beltrami was just *masturbating* as usual.......
Who is Mr. Dinogio?
That's the Italian composer who lives just beneath the surface of the dirty water in the Death Star's trash compactor.
He works with DePalma a lot.

Unbelievable. Every amazon-site offers the download for Beltrami´s Carrie. But the German site only offers the atrocious song collection.

Ah god bless the "future"... if this was on boring old CD we'd all have access to a nice, uncompressed, digital recording. Instead of that...
Shocked at Sony Classical. Normally so reliable.
Maybe they wait for the release of the movie in Germany on December 5.
Or someone at Amazon.de is still sleeping...

Now, I generally like Marco Beltrami and feel he is trying to forge his own sound, while having to obey his tin-eared paymasters, but this is incredibly weak, even by his standards.
The fact that the original Pino Donaggio score is what kick-started my love of film music - I consider it one the most beautiful and effective scores ever - doesn't do Beltrami any favours.
This score has really hammered home to me how generic modern scores have become, in relation to when composers were allowed to write MUSIC in conjunction with their particular voice and style.

I only know the samples, of course (thanks so much, German amazon and Sony...) but generic it is definitely not.
Sure, I love the original CARRIE soundtrack, too. But Beltrami did not opt (or was asked) to deliver a copy of the famous score but to work out something different which is still haunting and interesting.

Sony Classical has been behaving really erratically with these soundtrack releases. A few months back, I couldn't find a CD of KON TIKI and finally realized I could get it through Amazon Canada but not the US. Now amazon US has it as an import.
Now the only place you can find CARRIE as a CD is Amazon Germany (not Canada or France or US, of course).
WTF are they thinking?
I categorically refuse to purchase any music as a lossy download. I will just do without if that is the only way I can get it unless it is a super holy grail (none of which are going to be released as a download anyway).
I guess I should be grateful that I can get the import CD, but why does this have to be so f**king complicated?
Exactly. There is no (obvious) reason why some countries get only the download option while others don´t (or the CD release, in this case). If it´s a rights issue - why wouldn´t the parties involved find a compromise so they can make money of their property instead of... well, forgetting about it.

I understand that. But why doesn´t Sony offer just the download then in Germany? It seems weird that they actually press a CD here where, quite frankly, only score nerds like me will pick it up. And I would have chosen the download if it had been made available like in every other country.

So Amazon US has it as an import, or had it as an import? I don't see it anywhere on Amazon US. If it is currently available for import on Amazon US, could someone provide a link?
If it isn't available there, where would be the best place to order it from, as I live in the US? The Germany site? Is that Amazon Germany?
Sorry for all the questions, I do not have a lot of experience ordering internationally.
Is this CD definitely pressed, and not someone burning a CD-R and trying to pass it off?
Thanks!
