muddycoffee 20-02-2007, 12:45 Dusk till dawn.
Tarantino always picks great music but this soundtrack is a southern blues rock masterpiece.
With Plenty of SRV, ZZtop and Jimmiy Vaughan.
Cool and with humour too.
I used to used it as incidental muisic when I was doing bands on Big PA systems, and this soundtrack CD and "exhile on mainstreet" were the two I always used. They never get boring no matter how many times.
BlankFrack 20-02-2007, 12:50 Hate to follow the pack but Pulp Fiction is really jolly good
O Brother Where Art Thou
Amelie
is it Shrek or Shrek 2 that has the wonderful version of Hallelujah by Rufus Wainwright on it?
And, not really a movie as such but the soundtrack to the musical episode of Buffy The Vampire Slayer is the aceness :)
"They got the mustard out!"
Grease
Pretty woman
Dirty Dancing
Saturday night fever
...is it Shrek or Shrek 2 that has the wonderful version of Hallelujah by Rufus Wainwright on it? ...
It's 'Shrek'. It's a wonderful version. I haven't seen the film, so I had no idea it was on the soundtrack. I found it alongside a live version of 'Careless Whisper' by Rufus Wainwright and Ben Folds - much better than the original :) .
I quite like the soundtracks to 'Grease' and 'Footloose' :blush: .
BasilRathbon 20-02-2007, 13:11 Twin Peaks
The Piano (and pretty much anything else by Michael Nyman)
BlankFrack 20-02-2007, 13:15 It's 'Shrek'. It's a wonderful version. I haven't seen the film, so I had no idea it was on the soundtrack. I found it alongside a live version of 'Careless Whisper' by Rufus Wainwright and Ben Folds - much better than the original :) .
I quite like the soundtracks to 'Grease' and 'Footloose' :blush: .
So there's a way of getting hold of it without buying the Shrek soundtrack then? :o
Would be prepared to divulge such information?
BTW, your revelation about Grease and Footloose is, for some reason, the most astounding thing I've ever read on SF!
PM winging its way to you soon, BlankFrack :) .
BlankFrack 20-02-2007, 13:20 PM winging its way to you soon, BlankFrack :) .
It's like a dream come true :)

miniminch 20-02-2007, 13:46 I seem to remember really loving the Christiane F Soundtrack (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christiane_F._(album) as a kid. (I was a little weird punk!) But mainly, anything by this guy. (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=34174914)Especially The Mission.
But my favourite recent Soundtrack is from the film Breaking and Entering Hear the first two tracks on this page. (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=5550345&MyToken=b5ecbb4a-8a02-4822-8967-18ace7120546)
I think a good soundtrack should reflect the mood of the cinematography and the piece. All of my selections seem to have a commonality, although not at first obvious.
The first one perfectly reflects the dark cold war period of Berlin during the cold war; with the first track (an instrumental) a rather obvious nod towards Kraftwerk and the gloom and tensions within post war Germany.
The second is a composer who can amplify a cinematic moment with a single musical phrase. I cannot think of Angel Falls with out that soundtrack - just lush.
And finally, two musicians who wrote the soundtrack to my life for most of the nineties and were the highlight on the train-spotting soundtrack. Here they co write and produce a whole soundtrack with composer Gabriel Yared - and I love it. Definately showing the promise of more splendid things to come.:thumbsup:
seriessix 20-02-2007, 13:48 Just about all Michael Nyman’s stuff – Piano, Drowning By Numbers, The Cook the Thief....and the Ravenous sound track he did with Damon Albarn.
Requiem for a Dream’s soundtrack is great.
Vangelis – Blade Runner, 1492.
Passion by Peter Gabriel from the Martin Scorcese film.
Event Horizon – Orbital and Michael Kaman.
NEKRO138 20-02-2007, 15:09 I'd like to add SLC Punk and Made in Britain. And I can't believe I missed out Saturday Night Fever! And The Warriors!
BlankFrack 20-02-2007, 15:30 Forgot to mention the lovely Harold & Maude soundtrack by Cat Stevens
