  • The Aquaman soundtrack was released today, and I’m enjoying it

    The Aquaman soundtrack by Rupert Gregson-Williams was released today, and I just found it on Spotify: I’ve literally listened to two tracks so far, and it doesn’t seem like it includes the music we heard in the trailer is in the soundtrack. Just the same, just based on “What Could Be Greater Than a King?“,…

  • Danny Elfman’s Batman theme in the Justice League soundtrack

    Danny Elfman’s Batman theme in the Justice League soundtrack

    I thought I’d listen to Danny Elfman’s Justice League soundtrack again this morning, and noticed a familiar theme while listening to the track “The Final Battle” at about 1:12: It’s familiar because Elfman probably drew on his theme from the Michael Keaton Batman movie themes.

    Sweet sounds of This Bitter Earth

    I feel like I’m on a bit of a Max Richter journey of discovery the last couple days. My conversation with a couple other music fans prompted me to listen to Richter’s “The Blue Notebooks” album, and it’s terrific.

    Spring, remixed

    I really enjoy this take on Vivaldi’s Spring 1: You can hear Max Richter’s influence in this layered rendition. It’s a terrific piece of music to relax to after my wife’s cooking tonight.

  • Break Through it all with this track

    I’ve been listening to the Lounge – Soft House playlist on Spotify a lot lately, and the Sons of Maria track, Break Through – Club Mix, really appeals to me. I have it on repeat at the moment. https://open.spotify.com/track/6pn6Mr39KCoTzN1WVjtaNK?si=ECun41YJST637DLnsfmvTg
