I HATE watching cruddy-looking films on YouTube, but I might have to bite the dust and watch this one if it's not available elsewhere, since I'm trying to prepare myself for a future podcast about the composer's career. I recently tormented my way through an atrocious-looking copy of CAST AWAY as well (the Roeg film from the 80s, not the Zemeckis), for these purposes.    Posted:   Nov 25, 2024 - 9:06 AM     By:   First Breath   (Member) I have the cues on the "British Years" album, and they range from pretty good to annoying.

I recently tormented my way through an atrocious-looking copy of CAST AWAY as well (the Roeg film from the 80s, not the Zemeckis), for these purposes. There is just a suite, not cues. THE FRUIT MACHINE is also on YT. I am just glad obscure stuff is on YT. I doubt I will see this one though.    Posted:   Nov 25, 2024 - 9:59 AM     By:   Thor   (Member) Cues, suites....I'm just glad we have what we have have, but there's a lot of those pre-RAIN MAN things from the UK that need a proper release.    Posted:   Nov 26, 2024 - 5:12 AM     By:   jgb   (Member) Even better - here’s some making-of footage the director recorded at Zimmer’s studio https://youtu.be/4edXqbz-41Y?si=lJ4WvAiBYS8C6DCa    Posted:   Nov 26, 2024 - 5:57 AM     By:   Thor   (Member) Even better - here’s some making-of footage the director recorded at Zimmer’s studio https://youtu.be/4edXqbz-41Y?si=lJ4WvAiBYS8C6DCa Holy crap, that's an amazing find! Never seen that before. Thanks for sharing, jgb!    Posted:   Nov 26, 2024 - 6:30 AM     By:   acathla   (Member) Even better - here’s some making-of footage the director recorded at Zimmer’s studio https://youtu.be/4edXqbz-41Y?si=lJ4WvAiBYS8C6DCa Holy crap, that's an amazing find! Never seen that before. Thanks for sharing, jgb! Here is also another one with Zimmer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEDdZE3lvvE&ab_channel=AndrewBirkin    Posted:   Nov 26, 2024 - 6:42 AM     By:   Thor   (Member) I love it when directors do this. Spielberg, of course, has shot hours upon hours of recording session footage with Williams, and we've only seen a tiny fraction of it (in the documentary, in featurettes etc.). So kudos to director Andrew Birkin (Jane's brother, for those who don't know) for doing this. In addition to the Zimmer glimpse, I also love all the old-school tech in full form, buzzing and whirling and spinning. So analogue and tactile.    Posted:   Nov 26, 2024 - 7:51 AM     By:   First Breath   (Member) Yes, great find. Zimmer's English is flawless, by the way.    Posted:   Nov 29, 2024 - 1:13 AM     By:   Thor   (Member) Listening to the suite again now, and - to be slightly more specific than I was before - what I find lovely are those pan pipe-infused tracks (channeling Morricone's ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA, no doubt), while those string samples sound incredibly shrill and annoying.    Posted:   Nov 29, 2024 - 2:38 AM     By:   First Breath   (Member) Yes, string samples are never a good idea. I guess it was state of the art in 1988 though.    Posted:   Nov 29, 2024 - 2:50 AM     By:   Thor   (Member) Yeah. By the way, I've assembled some bits and bobs into a "Rarities" album of its own, including BURNING SECRET.    Posted:   Nov 29, 2024 - 7:24 AM     By:   First Breath   (Member) Ah, INSIGNIFICANCE. I'll be writing an article about that soundtrack for Blitzed Magazine soon. I'll do one retro soundtrack review in each issue. https://blitzedmag.com/     General Discussion: Hans Zimmer - BURNING SECRET (1988)    < 1  >   Go to page:  1   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
