I am more convinced than ever that Totoro is Andre Lux.

I am more convinced tha ever that Khan is Johann Gambolputty de von Ausfern-schplenden-schlitter-crasscrenbon-fried-digger-dingle-dangle-dongle-dungle-burstein-von-knacker-thrasher-apple-banger-horowitz-ticolensic-grander-knotty-spelltinkle-grandlich-grumblemeyer-spelterwasser-kurstlich-himbleeisen-bahnwagen-gutenabend-bitte-ein-nürnburger-bratwustle-gerspurten-mitzweimache-luber-hundsfut-gumberaber-shönendanker-kalbsfleisch-mittler-aucher von Hautkopft of Ulm.

Or maybe he is?

Of course he is.


It is prety obvious that First Bresth is Ander Lux pretending he is a big swiss fan of lame synthesized music from the 80's.

Love these two tracks -- they bode well for the rest of the score. GLADIATOR stylings channeled through his contemporary style. I'm a fan already!

Welcome back Thor, and may I say I feel the exact opposite!
BTW I don't hear the Gladiator stylings and I like that score.


Wailing woman, arabic sonorities, something that sounds like a duduk....I got plenty of GLADIATOR vibes in it. But as I said -- channeled through his contemporary style.


I can see that. I do wonder how the vocals are going to be used in the film. And what language they are. I think a lot of people associated the vocals with the desert setting but I am guessing that's not how they'll be used in the movie.

It's still not relevant, though.
As long as someone's not breaking the rules, it doesn't matter.

I think the 2 Zimmer tracks are crap.
That doesn't make me Lux.

I like how the response to calling these two tracks bad is that we haven’t heard the whole music so we can’t judge it, yet the opposite is happening as well where people on the boards are listening to these tracks and proclaiming the whole musical score as spectacular, and even external reviews are calling it “haunting.

The PR machine at work!

Yeah? I usually respect your opinions. Well, I ALWAYS respect them, but I often agree with them. So what am I missing?

I'm looking forward to the score but I wasn't blown away by these. Maybe that's the problem: My expectations are too high for two tracks.

The last Zimmer that blew me away (just about instantly) was Man of Steel. I find his "noodling atmospherics" mode to not be what I want to listen to. Blade Runner 2049 was a nice enough expansion of the original Blade Runner.

I'm not a Zimmer basher by any stretch. But I have very high hopes for this film and if I'm not reading this wrong Zimmer seems to have professed an affinity for the material. It's almost always at least interesting when Zimmer tries something new. (I don't always like to listen to Interstellar, but I love that it doesn't sound much like what he did before.)

My expectations are high too (personally, I haven't been "blown away" by a Zimmer since INTERSTELLAR). I just thought there were enough "grains" (no pun intended) in these two cuts to suggest another visionary, great score on that level. Of course, I'll reserve full judgement untill I've heard the soundtrack(s).

Said the guy who is a big fan of Moroder's Cat People and Metropolis.

Of course it's relevant. If Andre Lux got banned, he should not be allowed to register as Totoro.

I finally listened to both tracks and was dissapointed. The last Zimmer scores I liked was "WW84" and "Interstellar".

Pauls Dream:
00:00 - 02:30 boring, sounds like that standard trailer music before the action music begins, nothing special or interesting for me.
02:30 - 04:30 The interesting two minutes of this 7 minute track. I love when Zimmer uses electric Guitars. I like it in Men of Steel and I like it here.
04:30 - 07:00 I don't like people yelling at me. This part is also boring.

Ripples In The Sand:
I like that singing. Everything else is kinda meh. I don't like how it apruptly stops at 2:34 & 3:38. I sounds like Zimmer wrote and wrote and didn't notice that the scene is over and then just delete the last bars. In WW84 everything had a nice flow and transitions where smooth.

I really hope that the rest is more interesting... this just sounds like Gladiator and Man of Steel in lite... which is strange because when I first listened to MoS I thought it was Zimmer lite... His declining musical complexity is what I don't like about his music since 2010 (with some exceptions). How does sound a Zimmer score in 10 years? just one note playing for 2 hours straight?

Ban evading is breaking the rules.

Andre Lux has been banned from here *multiple* times. Totoro calling Zimmer "Hanzimmer" in this thread is a huge giveaway that he is Lux.

Good looking out, Khan.

Took me 2 seconds to find him on Facebook too (We have two people in common, sadly).

Andre Lux also had those Life Of Brian "and so is my wife" jokes, that Totoro also has.

There's a lot of crap going on here lately that's breaking the rules, if you want to be technical.
If you and FB want to be thread cops, perhaps you should apply for a mod job.
If everyone behaves, I think that's about as good as it needs to be.
