Added "Witch". While preparing 1x03 for the final master Adobe Premiere crashed out of nowhere and all progress on the color correction was lost. Not a huge loss but I had'nt the motivation to do it all again so I used a fan-made 1080p upscale of the DVD versions. Boy do they look good... I will use this upscale for episodes 1-7 (my edits on 1x01&1x02 remain available) and the official HD remaster for 8-12 because those episodes actually opened up the frame and didn't crop the 4:3 image down.
Here's the complete Rescore from the brilliant episode "I, Robot... You, Jane". This one is probably the closest to Murphy's original score due to the heavy reliance on synths. I'm jacked in. But there are some new motifs: 2 Ostinato's, 2 simple chord-progression all for moloch, a sort of love theme for Willow and Malcolm and the Magic/Ritual theme from 1x02/03 Returns.
The Moloch is splitted into three phases over the episode
1. Analog, Alife and in the Book
2. Digital and across the WWW.
3. Resurrected into a physical but robotic and digital form
All these phases are represented musically by using the traditional orchestra for 1, a lot of synths for 2 and processed brass + synths for 3. The same applies to the Magic theme being 'digitized' when Giles and Jenny perform the ritual inside the computer. Did I just wrote that?
Look.. this episode sucks. Scoring "Teacher's Pet" was not that much fun (still was but compared to the better Episodes) but "Teacher's Pet" only needed 16 minutes of music. Then pain was over fast. I'm jacked in. This amazingly brilliant piece of well written and well acted entertainment media requires 27 minutes. Twenty-Seven. And... like 9 minutes are boring synth noise that isn't really track-able because each scene has a different tempo and sync points... Uh.. and there's a moment in the final showdown where Willow... uhm... takes.. control.. so I adapted that S5 cue by Wander. It's just two chords. Two chords that I used since 1x01 because they're cool.
Here's the Episode if you want to suffer through it:

The next Episode is finished. And it was luckily not a Nightmare to score it (looking at you, Teacher's Pet & I Robot something). With my limited hardware and software it was tricky to get the unique musical styles (Vampires, Clown, Spiders, History Test, Lucky 19, Lovely Dad Talk etc...) all in one template and I had to use entirely different String Samples but it worked quite well in the end.
This episode is like "I, Robot... You, Jane" presented in both 4:3 and 16:9.

). Exactly! And then it also appears again in The Prodigal (along with Darla's theme, same cue). Once in season two, I believe its after that very long talk Angel have in the elevator with that man (I dont quite remember who that man was or the episode, I SO need to rewatch this show!) and he goes for a walk in the streets or something. I think its like a piano version of it. And it also appears in a season 4 episode but I wont spoil the scene
