I feel like John Powell's name for "Additional Music" is new here...Have I just been missing it, or has new info come to light?

Yeah, I never noticed that either. Didn't think HGW was involved with this either outside of the trailer music (or is that all that is meant by "additional music" here?).
We all know Greenaway worked extensively on this and he did Face/Off with Powell the same year, so who knows...

I found that. Hans couldn't confirm nor deny, he doesn't remember... lol
Wow, the sound on this is hurtful to my ears. the highs and mids are crazily painful and hardly anything at the bottom. very disappointed with LLL

Haven't listened to this one with headphones yet but at first listen I don't hear anything wrong with it. But I must admit I'm not a major audiophile, so what do I know.
Hybrid Soldier

Well they didn't kick anyone's ass with the mastering...
The 1997 OST was a lot more violent (and suitable for this kind of score)... They played it weak here (they even made the 1997 OST selection softer here)...

The only thing I don't like about this is that some parts are way more silent than I'd like them to be. I find myself adjusting the volume constantly while listening to this.
Hybrid Soldier
2014-06-01 19:34:15
Which is exactly the definition of a not great mastering... lol
Edmund Meinerts

I haven't listened to the new release yet but is the sound still better than the boot?

Actually, dynamic range is a good thing, Hybrid.
RealFfingMusic
2014-06-02 07:22:36
Dynamic range is definitely a good thing, but only when it enhances the music. But this one has such a high dynamic range that one has to keep a finger on volume control, or risk missing out certain portions. That, m'friend, is BAD remastering.
P.S. I've listened to only 4-5 tracks and I already HATE it.
Hybrid Soldier
2014-06-02 07:59:10
It's a good thing for an orchestral score like Kingdom of Heaven...
For Peacemaker, not so much...
MrFix
2014-06-02 11:40:39
@hybrid Exactly!! For the peacemaker, because it's mainly synthetic (not to sure if it is completely) it's like volume was intentionally dropped and peaked during post recording to try and give more of a dynamic sound for on screen purposes. I've noticed a few scores like that too from zimmer, crimson tide for one comes into mind.
DISC 1 1. Voice of God / Vassily’s Dilemma 6:49 2. Hijack 7:46 3. It Wasn’t an Accident / Exporting Good Will / Smoke Screen 3:55 4. Bombs on the Move / Alexsander Kodoroff / Kodoroff’s Alive 5:11 5. Good Guys / Bad Guys / Dusan’s Village 1:51 6. Keep On Truckin’ / Head of Transportation / Hasselhoff / Escape 4:38 7. Car Chase 5:51 8. Forty-Four E / Dusan’s Confession 3:24 9. Truck Convoy / License Plate 2:46 10. Nocturne in C# Minor 1:15 (Frederic Chopin) 11. Get Me Authorized (feat. Mamak Khadem) 2:38 12. Checkpoint / Helicopter Chase 12:11 13. One Unaccounted For / Dusan Gets Bomb/ Dusan’s Speech 5:06 14. He’s Going to New York / F.B.I. N.Y. / Swiss Flight #1204 4:37 15. Dusan’s Flashback 6:18 TOTAL DISC TIME: 74:16
DISC 2 1. Dusan With Bomb / Dusan in Church 11:18 2. Dusan Kills Himself 3:28 3. Dr. Kelly Is O.K. / Dr. Kelly Got 10 More 3:28 BONUS TRACKS 4. Trains (original album version) 13:54 5. Devoe’s Revenge (original album version) 5:16 6. Sarajevo (original album version) 8:43 7. Chase (original album version) 17:06 8. Peacemaker (original album version) 9:45 9. Get Me Authorized (alternate vocals feat. Lisbeth Scott) 2:42 10. The Peacemaker Trailer Music 2:18

Oh La-La Land...I love you, but it seems like your trend of pointlessly combining separate cues into lengthier ones shows no sign of abating. :/

It's great to have all this material remastered, restored and dressed in an official package/disc.
However, I was wondering what happened to the unused cues of Peacemaker? There is a rumour that some composers block(ed) various scores from receiving an official expanded release. Do you think that something like that happened in this case? LaLaLand must have known that there was an unofficial release with unused cues. I was expecting surprises from this (such as previously unreleased material etc), but so far I don't see anything big. It looks more in the style of Broken Arrow and Speed 2. That is to say, on the one hand they were official expanded releases, but on the other hand there had been more material available (on promo releases, et al) that wasn't include for some reason.

What are you talking about ? The fake thing floating around for a decade ? lol
Aggelos
2014-05-20 17:18:22
Ya dat thing. Was it phoney?? In any case, where iz da previouzly unrealeazed material??
mark
2014-05-20 19:08:38
hey there, just wanted to to clear this up, i remastered a few of the tracks from peacemaker just for fun, and added some extra sounds i created on my synthesizer, i named it the unused cues which is where those tracks came from, hope this helps
Hybrid Soldier
2014-05-20 19:14:11
And people were naive enough to believe it, especially 10 years ago...
Poe

What fake thing are we referring to?
And yes, Edmund, my first thought was exactly the same.
Aggelos
2014-05-20 22:00:13
Excellent! Not that we have clarified this up, I think we can go on with our lives. Cheers!!!
The thematic material that appears on the events that take place in Sarajevo somehow reminds me ideas by Ippolitov-Ivanov featured in his orchestral suite Caucasian Sketches. Search on youtube for Ippolitov-Ivanov "In a Village" (the 2nd movement of the suite) www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pqperR8R4g

10 or 15 years ago, there was a "Peacemaker - unused cues" bootleg album floating around. I think they refer to this. And yes, it was a bunch of bootleg cues edited together with some synth and drums added on top of it. There was no "real" new music from Hans' studio at all.

@Edmund Meinerts
More tracks = more money. So they end up compromising by way of combining the cues together. I hate this, because it's never sounded seamless, but I have to accept it because it's the only way these thing could be released legitimately
Poe
2014-05-22 19:23:00
Number of tracks has nothing to do with it. More music=more money, if anything, but having split tracks wouldn't make it more expensive.
Aggelos
2014-05-23 13:37:35
Regarding cues such as Dusan's Confession, Dusan's Village, Dusan's speech, the thematic material somehow bears an interesting resemblance to ideas by Mikhail Ippolitov-Ivanov featured in his orchestral suite Caucasian Sketches ("In a Village" the 2nd movement of the suite). Am I the only one who has noticed this?
Aggelos

In addition, Trains (album version) or Hijack have moments that remind a little bit Sergei Prokofiev's "Tylbat's Death" from Romeo and Juliet.
Did Zimmer actually wrote everything except ''Devoe's Revenge'' and the trailer music?
Edmund Meinerts
2014-05-23 12:14:49
That's ironic considering "Devoe's Revenge" is the one cue we know is cowritten by Gavin Greenaway.
thejok3rrules
2014-05-23 19:53:17
It's nothing ironic, mate... I checked the booklet, it said ''All Songs Written by Hans Zimmer Except "Devoe's Revenge" Written by Gavin Greenaway & "The Peacemaker Trailer Music" Written by Harry Gregson-Williams'', so I asked myself: Is it true? Whatever.
Edmund Meinerts
2014-05-23 21:46:10
Oh, sorry! I somehow managed to read your comment the wrong way around. Silly me... :p
This is going to be very interesting, nonetheless! Hopefully, LaLaLand will release more stuff from the Media Ventures gang of the '90s before long.

LaLaLand has already released quite some quality stuff from the 90's (Mancina's Bad Boys, Money Train and Speed scores, Zimmer's Broken Arrow and Days of Thunder). But there are still a few I like so released (Fair Game, Assassins) or expanded (The Fan, The Rock)

Next up please, The Fan, The Fan, The Fan!!!
Edmund Meinerts

I'm really surprised how many, uh, fans The Fan has. I know that apparently the album isn't a good representative of the score, but still - I didn't think what's there is really much good. I'm much more excited about The Peacemaker (even though I've already heard it :p )
Lambegue
2014-05-05 19:40:18
I'm really excited about this one too

Like I said in an other thread, for me The Fan is the perfect combination between Hans Zimmer and NIN. Considering you don't like Trent Reznor, I'm not surprised you don't really care for The Fan.
As for this one, can't wait to own it! One of my fave Zimmer scores and of his finest action scores.
