I've more or less finished my Grand Whittling Project. Still have some to go where I'm not sure if I'm going to keep them the way they are or whittle a bit (like Quincy Jones' THE COLOR PURPLE). It amounted to 116 albums, a bit less than expected, but still a LOT of work. I'll see if I can peridically share some screen grabs of the whittled playlists now and then, perhaps over a glass during the weekend.    Posted:   Dec 2, 2023 - 12:14 PM     By:   Hedji   (Member) Does anyone have a whittled down program of the original Die Hard? The 3CD is pretty magnificent in scope, but I’d appreciate a condensed playlist from someone more acquainted with the score.    Posted:   Dec 2, 2023 - 12:42 PM     By:   1977   (Member) Die Hard is one score where I think one of those V/S sub-30 minute albums would work a treat.    Posted:   Dec 3, 2023 - 7:28 PM     By:   Tom Servo   (Member) Does anyone have a whittled down program of the original Die Hard? The 3CD is pretty magnificent in scope, but I’d appreciate a condensed playlist from someone more acquainted with the score. Yes, I do! Below is my 73 minute whittled down version of DIE HARD, created back in 2019 (if I recall) and using tracks from that very latest remastered edition from La La Land Records. I kept it in chronological order, unlike my single album edit of DIE HARD WITH A VENGEANCE. Anywho, hope this helps! Die Hard (Remastered Edition, Custom Album Edit): 1.Main Title 2.Seeing Holly 3.Terrorist Entrance 4.John's Escape/You Want Money 5.The Nakatomi Plaza (Takagi's Death) 6.Wiring the Roof 7.Tony and John Fight 8.Going After John 9.Have a Few Laughs/Al Powell Approaches 10.Under the Table 11.Welcome to the Party 12.Holly Meets Hans 13.Assault on the Tower 14.Attention Police 15.Shoot the Glass 16.I Had an Accident (Extended Version) 17.The Vault (Film Edit) 18.Message For Holly (Film Edit) 19.The Battle / Freeing The Hostages 20.Helicopter Explosion And Showdown 21.Happy Trails, Hans 22.Aftermath - Powell's Comeback 23.Beethoven's 9th (End Credit Excerpt)    Posted:   Dec 3, 2023 - 7:33 PM     By:   Tom Servo   (Member) In addition, and as I mentioned in the main thread on Quartet Records' release of CLIFFHANGER, I crafted a whittled down, single album edit of that as well. This is a 71 minute version and I mostly supplemented all the tracks on the original 51 minute album with additional cues. I did decide to not include that "Frank's Demise" cue in place of "Jessie's Close Call" just keep the album moving, but it could be easily added back. I also included some of the album edits of cues as they were shorter runtimes. Cliffhanger (Custom Album Edit): 1.Cliffhanger Theme (Film Version) 2.Sarah's Farewell (Film Version) 3.Sarah Falls (Film Version) 4.Gabe Returns (Film Version) 5.I Understand (Film Version) 6.Being Tracked 7.Plane Crash 8.Two Man Job (Film Version) 9.Tolerated Help (Film Version) 10.Fetch / Expensive Funeral 11.Sunset Searching (Album Version) 12.Face Flare 13.Fireside Chat (Album Version) 14.Brett's Death / Evan's Dive 15.Bats (Film Version) 16.Wolves Away / Footbridge 17.Kynette Is Impaled (Film Version) 18.Jessie's Close Call 19.Rabbit Hole (Film Version) 20.Icy Stream / Jessie's Release / Hooked Copter / Helicopter Fight 21.End Credits (Cliffhanger) (Film Version)    Posted:   Dec 3, 2023 - 8:05 PM     By:   Hedji   (Member) Thank you for both of those, Tom!    Posted:   Feb 11, 2024 - 9:37 AM     By:   Solium   (Member) While I like the original Star Wars and Return of the Jedi OST presentations I find Empire Strikes Back so out of film order it's distracting. So for kick and giggles I attempted to reorganize the original Star Wars trilogy in chronological order without editing the cues. (Other than "Ewok Celebration and Final", See Notes) Character suites were placed where I thought they would fit best in the playlists. Some music remains out of film order because several cues consist of music from different times in the films. It’s as close as one can get without splicing up individual tracks and reordering them. My attempt was to get as close as possible to film order with the tracks I have to work with. Notes: The whittling- "Cantina Band", "Jabba Palace Band" and "Ewok Celebration". Star Wars OST Main Title Imperial Attack The Little People Work The Desert and the Robot Auction The Princess Appears The Land of the Sandpeople Inner City The Return Home Princess Leia's Theme Mouse Robot and Blasting Off Rescue of the Princess The Walls Converge Ben's Death and TIE Fighter Attack The Last Battle The Throne Room and End Title Empire Strikes Back OST Star Wars (Main Theme) The Battle in the Snow Rebels at Bay The Heroics of Luke and Han The Asteroid Field Yoda's Theme The Training of a Jedi Knight The Magic Tree The Imperial March (Darth Vader's Theme) Han Solo and the Princess Yoda and the Force The City in the Clouds Lando's Palace Departure of Boba Fett The Duel Hyperspace Finale Return of the Jedi OST Main Title (The Story Continues) Han Solo Returns (At the Court of Jabba the Hutt) The Return of the Jedi Parade of the Ewoks Luke and Leia The Forest Battle Into the Trap The Emperor Rebel Briefing Ewok Celebration and Finale (Edit)    Posted:   Mar 13, 2024 - 9:32 AM     By:   BrenKel   (Member) I have been playing the mammoth 4 hour Orville season 3 over the course of the week. The music is absolutely fantastic! The problem is, and it’s a great problem to have - is there so much of it! I would really love to pull together a Best of The Orville from all three seasons that fills a one or two disc set, so I have the benefit of a time limited version. Has anyone managed to do this?    Posted:   Mar 15, 2024 - 2:49 AM     By:   Hurdy Gurdy   (Member) Yes Brendon, I did a whittle of the 4 disc ORVILLE Series 3 release. I kept pretty much all of the Kaska and Cottee scores, which sounded the most original/least copy temp track of the set to me (although Kaska does skirt Williams VERY CLOSE on occasion too). Most of the stuff I jettisoned were Debney & McNeely when they were leaning too close to the source (ALIEN, RAIDERS, etc) or was a bit noodly suspense stuff, although there are some really good cues from them too. The only one that survived fully intact was Disc 4 (eps 9 & 10) cos I loved all of what Kaska & McNeely did in those. I can individualise the other tracks from Discs 2 & 3 if you want?    Posted:   Mar 15, 2024 - 2:55 AM     By:   Thor   (Member) I've had two major "projects" recently - The Grand Collection Building Project (which some of you might have gleaned through my bumps and threads on various things recently) and The Grand Whittling Project. For the latter, I've whittled all of the "emergency soundtracks" in my digital collection, i.e. the ones that are unlistenable unless whittled, but I've also started to whittle those that are merely uncomfortable. This counts 174(!) albums so far. At some point, I'll share some of them here (I've taken screen grabs of all of them), but obviously not all at once.    Posted:   Mar 15, 2024 - 7:02 AM     By:   DaveM   (Member) Hans Zimmer's THE CREATOR 01.

It's one of the best tracks Hans Zimmer has written in almost 30 years.    Posted:   Mar 15, 2024 - 7:45 AM     By:   DaveM   (Member) No "Heaven"? It's one of the best tracks Hans Zimmer has written in almost 30 years. Dont' know... "Heaven" just didn't do much for me. Propalby because it's so damn slow... But I still haven't watched the film. So maybe my opinion will change about this cue after seeing it with context.    Posted:   Mar 15, 2024 - 11:08 PM     By:   BrenKel   (Member) Yes Brendon, I did a whittle of the 4 disc ORVILLE Series 3 release.

Thanks Kev, appreciate you replying. Yes if you don’t mind sharing your whittle list that would be great.    Posted:   Mar 16, 2024 - 1:32 AM     By:   Steve H   (Member) Does anyone have a whittled down program of the original Die Hard? The 3CD is pretty magnificent in scope, but I’d appreciate a condensed playlist from someone more acquainted with the score. I put this playlist together a while back assuming an LP had been released back in the day. Typically out of sequence.

So I condensed them onto 3 CDs. I tried to arrange them to reflect 3 aspects of the show. The first concentrates on medieval adventure, the second on dragons, and the third on the more overt supernatural aspects. I mostly ignored the show's narrative and arranged the cues like a single movie score, with a slow build leading to a bunch of action, then an ease down to a finale. I even gave them names. And now I have 3 CDs I listen to all the time. With apologizes to Ramin Djawadi. Game of Thrones (Custom CD 1) Kingdoms and Swords (Seasons 3-8) (68:12) 01 Main Title 02 I Have to Go North 03 Craster's Keep 04 Needle 05 A Lannister Always Pays His Debts 06 A Message for Cersei 07 A Lion's Legacy 08 The Lannisters Send Their Regrets 09 Hear Me Roar 10 The Queen's Justice 11 Ironborn 12 Coronation 13 I am the Storm 14 High Sparrow 15 Thenns 16 Let's Kill Some Crows 17 He is Lost 18 See You for What You Are 19 Truth 20 For Cersei 21 Atonement 22 You are No Son of Mine 23 The Children Game of Thrones (Custom CD 2) Skies and Fire (Seasons 3-8) (78:56) 01 Winds of Winter 02 Mereen 03 I Need You By My Side 04 Dracarys 05 Dance of Dragons 06 Blood of the Dragons 07 Casterly Rock 08 Khaleesi 09 Reign 10 Son of the Harpys 11 Blood of My Blood 12 Breaker of Chains 13 Spoils of War Pt.1 14 Spoils of War Pt.2 15 Battle for the Skies 16 The Last War 17 Master of War 18 The Iron Throne 19 Dragonstone 20 Mhysa Game of Thrones (Custom CD 3) Magic and Ice (Seasons 3-8) (75:44) 01 Dark Wings, Dark Words 02 The Red Woman 03 Lord of Light 04 Let's Play a Game 05 The Biggest Fire the North Has Ever Seen 06 White Walkers 07 Hardhome Pt.1 08 Hardhome Pt.2 09 The Army of the Dead 10 The Dead Are Already Here 11 Against All Odds 12 The Long Night 13 The Night King 14 Not Today 15 The Last of the Starks 16 Winter Has Come 17 A Song of Ice and Fire    Posted:   Mar 25, 2024 - 2:28 PM     By:   SBD   (Member) Well, I finally got my hands on the Quartet release of Basic Instinct and…I think I can do better. 1.

CD1 (Eps 1 & 2) Just the 1*-7 Kaska tracks. The Debney score is okay, but too derivative and suspense music for me. CD2 (Eps 3, 4, 5) Tracks 1, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14 of the McNeely scores and all of the Cottee score (15-21). CD3 (Eps 6, 7, 8) All of the Cottee score (1-6) and 9, 10, 11, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20 of the Debney McNeely scores. CD4 (Eps 9, 10). The whole disc (1-*17) cos both scores by Kaska and McNeely are superb. *Track 1 of Disc 1 and Track 17 of Disc 4 are the Broughton title cues (also included in the whittle).
