Neat movie too, the ending of that film at the Wall and Horner's music brings me to tears every single time. I love hearing some love for Horner!! It warms my heart. Also today DMD on my long hike through the woods I listened to Journey of Natty Gann...and then on the drive home I listened to Red Heat! There's some Horner love for you, I can't get enough of the man's tunes!!! (I also listened to Christophe Beck's Percy Jackson: Lightning Thief and Phoebe in Wonderland while hiking -- great stuff)    Posted:   Apr 30, 2011 - 3:23 PM     By:   drivingmissdaisy   (Member) Great stuff Deputy. I also find Horner has some of the BEST music to listen to while sitting at the beach and just relaxing and people watching. I just can't get enough of his stuff. Speaking of JH, I'm importing ALL my Horner CD's into my itunes, all 90'some CD's, so I'll have a complete library with me at all times. Being one of Horners biggest admirers, I can't give Intrada enough hugs and kisses for giving us all those nostalgic Horner albums.    Posted:   Apr 30, 2011 - 3:30 PM     By:   DeputyRiley   (Member) Great stuff Deputy.

Yes sir the labels are doing a fantastic job with old Horner scores (most recently Testament). I really wish someone would go back and rerelease the long oop Red Heat, with an expanded treatment! Look how fast Commando and Predator sold out...the similarity being 80's Schwarzenegger films of course. It's about time you imported your stuff boy! I'm a huge fan of pairing my film scores with appropriate or experimental environments. Hiking in the woods, walking down a crowded street in a city, sitting on the beach, driving at night...one of my favorite times to enjoy a film score is paired with a unique external environment.    Posted:   Apr 30, 2011 - 3:39 PM     By:   LeHah   (Member) This has fast become one of my favorite Horner scores ever!    Posted:   Apr 30, 2011 - 3:46 PM     By:   drivingmissdaisy   (Member) I do the same thing Deputy. When I recently went to NY for the first time, I made a playlist of NY'ish music, film scores etc. In rain storms, I put on the fast Psycho cue. Yes I have no life, but it sure is fun. My life is just one big soundtrack. LeHah great to know you like it. I only had the end credits to this on a Naught Disc, so to finally get EVERYTHING was a dream.    Posted:   Apr 30, 2011 - 3:59 PM     By:   MerM   (Member) In rain storms, I put on the fast Psycho cue.

So glad I'm not the only one weird enough to do that.    Posted:   Apr 30, 2011 - 5:13 PM     By:   drivingmissdaisy   (Member) In rain storms, I put on the fast Psycho cue.

TOO funny Miles!!!!!    Posted:   May 2, 2011 - 3:28 AM     By:   Maestro   (Member) This has fast become one of my favorite Horner scores ever! I've been saying this score was special for years. I remember when I first saw the film on television in around 1995. I did enjoy the film, but outside of the performance of the young girl, the music especially really grabbed me, enough so that I would go on to brand this one as a grail. I even went back to the film numerous times, just to primarily hear the score. When it was finally released I was ecstatic! This truly is a fantastic score, and has been getting a huge amount of play from myself since that CD arrived at my door.    Posted:   May 2, 2011 - 4:46 AM     By:   Martin B.   (Member) This has fast become one of my favorite Horner scores ever!

Hauntingly beautiful and one of my most prized CDs.    Posted:   May 2, 2011 - 5:18 AM     By:   BrenKel   (Member) House of Cards is a fantastic score - so much going on in that score. I could not agree more heartedly with you about Intrada! Their Horner releases are exeptional - Journey Of Natty Gann Honey I Shrunk The Kids Something Wicked This Way Comes 48 Hours House Of Cards Uncommon Valor Jack The Bear Extreme Close-Up Brilliant stuff! Played Journey of Natty Gann in the garden yesterday with the sun beating down - pure heaven!    Posted:   Oct 10, 2014 - 4:36 PM     By:   connorb93   (Member) Great score! Only a few Hornerisms to count -including the cue Prime Numbers which features a theme he later used note for note in Once Upon a Forest (though with production delays on House of Cards I'm sure he thought nobody would hear the score) The 2 longest cues of the score are some really beautiful, haunting writings. When you can forget you're listening to a specific composer you know it's good.    Posted:   Oct 12, 2014 - 4:46 PM     By:   counterpoint   (Member) Just wanted to listen to that score. I was so sure I owned that CD since I have all the other Horner Intrada releases. To my suprise that seemes to be the only Horner score missing. No idea why I didn`t get it when it came out. Luckily I found a copy on ebay. Not exactly cheap but acceptable. So hopefully I`ll get it next week. A fantastic score.    Posted:   Oct 16, 2014 - 6:34 PM     By:   counterpoint   (Member) Finally received my copy yesterday. I have been spinning the disc constantly since then. How coud I have missed that CD back then is beyond me. What a marvelous score. Full of emotion and wonderful themes. IMO even better than MAN WITHOUT A FACE which I also love and which is also from that period. Worth every penny.     General Discussion: House Of Cards (James Horner)    << < 1 2  >   Go to page:  1 2   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2
