As a lot of you know, we're working on a special, limited edition 4 Disc Box Set of Mark Snow's amazing music from The X-Files. This is a joyous, yet mammoth undertaking, as you can all imagine. La-La Land, along with Mr. Snow, have narrowed down a selection of episodes that represent some of the very best musical moments from this beloved series. Some of the episodes on this list may not end up musically represented on the project, but we felt we wanted to share with you the overall pool of episodes we are focusing on.... a sneak peek at our process, if you will.
We are doing this because we'd like to ask you all, the fans, if there are any musical moments from episodes NOT included on this list that you are passionate about. While we can't promise your suggestions will end up in the final assembly, we will certainly take them into very serious consideration -- and remember -- if this set sells well, more will follow, and this makes your suggestions all the more important for future X-Files releases!

I'm not familiar enough to have any say, but I think what your doing is great, letting the fans chime in. I can't EVEN imagine the amount of work of going through 9 freaking seasons of music to try to find 4 discs worth, WOW. Just me thinking about it, makes me want to grab a drink.
Good luck, I know whatever ends up on the discs will be super duper.

The cue by Moby used when Mulder finds Samantha (CLOSURE?) but I realize that would be extra licensing hassles. ASCENSION has that great bit in the finale when Mulder stares into the night sky following Scully's disappearance.

Two musical moments from episodes NOT on the list that I am very passionate about:
(1) Please consider looking at the two-parter CHRISTMAS CAROL and EMILY from Season 5. The scores for these episodes are just gorgeous. In particular, listen to that scene at the very end of EMILY, in the church, where they visit Emily's coffin and Scully retrieves her cross. That wordless chorus, and those twinkling bells ... in my opinion, this is the single most beautiful cue Snow wrote for the series.
(2) I would also draw your attention to SYNCHRONY from Season 4. I will edit this post when I find the exact scene (I have the audio ripped to my computer), but there's a montage where one of the characters is walking from somewhere to another. For almost three minutes, there's no dialogue -- Snow's music is allowed to predominate. It's a wonderful, moody, expressive piece of work, and it really stands out. [EDIT: OK, the cue starts at 20:40 in the episode.]
Thanks for asking! I'm sure this will be a terrific set, and I can't wait to hear it!

I'm partial to the devil worshipping school teachers episode. i don't know what it's called or what season it was in but it had some omen-type chanting and primitive tribal rythym stuff for the big evidence eating snake at the end.

Wow, what a list and possibly more to come!!!!! Kudos!!!!
Any chance that the alternate x-files theme from 'The Secrets of the X-files' could make a future appearance or some tracks from Squeeze/Tooms, The Jersey Devil and Redux Part 1?

COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!
i would add FEARFUL SYMETRY from s.2
For me , the last two seasons are the lowest priority. To ensure that ALL the best music is presented ,I suggest you leave them off this set and save them for a potential volume two.
cant wait for this release!
PS
if you need some help with the notes, i am available
