I agree completely.<br><br>The movie was awesome, the score works perfectly, and the only thing I didn't like was the use of songs. Too much of them. Songs rarely work during intense action scenes. They distract.<br><br>But every time the score started, I liked it. Bay may be known as the big action guy, but when it comes to scoring the more intimate/emotional moments, he and the composer (no matter who he is) always do a good job.Greenaway for President! :))I agree with Knight.<br><br>It seems some peeps were expecting power anthems left and right. Yes, this is a big movie, but not a "Transformers-big" movie. I didn't like the use of source music (I hate songs in action movies) but when Balfe's work popped up I noticed it right away.<br><br>The more emotional cues were definitely the most memorable.What a fantastic soundtrack.<br>It’s totally crazy and works brilliantly in the film.<br>The bit emotional sections are very classic Bay but Balfe’s electronic weirdness is very unique.<br>It’s nothing like Balfe’s Dark Materials BUT why I’m earth should it be !<br>10/10Gavin should be listed as conductor
Because Ice Age was composed by David Newman and Collision Course was composed by John DebneyWhen i heard just the sound clips, i thought wtf. Sounds like the worst score, a michael bay movie ever had. Then i listened to the whole album and i have to say, there are some pretty cool tracks. I really like the electronic rhythmic stuff. Welcome to florence is awesome. The emotional moments are nice, but standard balfe stuff. In the movie, the music works really good. I think this music style is the only style, that works in THIS movie. And as hybrid says a mish mash of score and songs. The movie itself is.....strange. but at least the action rocks as hell.If "The Meltdown," "Dawn of The Dinosaurs" and "Continental Drift" are added, then how come "Ice Age" and "Collision Course" aren't?I haven't heard the album yet but there isn't much score in the film. It's like Bad Boys II meets Domino in terms of editing, songs everywhere (19 sourced songs used), short cues... Hell there's even a 13 Hours cue tracked in the film ("Getting Aboard The Plane")."Second time"... lol
Another awsome score by lorne balfe. I really like the film 6 underground directed by michael bay, is very awsome and intense and i begin to hear the score composed by lorne balfe, and its phenomenal and his second time working with michael bay since 13 hours, which i like lorne balfe's score too. Balfe's work is really inspiring in his film score.I don't expect Lorne to make a masterpiece with each movie, but it is true that most of her films are action candies, and I can't understand how she can deliver 6 underground and then make His dark materials. It seems that within Lorne there are a thousand different composers. And I don't know what to expect from Lorne again.Can't help noticing not one, but two Zimmer titles in here.... Tracks 14 and 16. lol.What is most disappointing is that this is a Michael Bay movie with a score being so bad. Historically his movies have fantastic scores by either Hans, Steve Jablonsky, and even Lorne Balfe. But this is hands down the worst Michael Bay score I’ve ever heard. <br><br>It’s functional, yes, but nothing compared to 13 Hours, any of the Transformers movies, The Rock, Pearl Harbor, etc. I definitely had high hopes for another good “power anthem” score... and the only cues that are any good are just Time ripoffs.<br><br>Highly disappointing.Again, if we have to expect every piece of work of one composer is have to be as good like his others pieces of work, that's pretty underwhelming and impossible.<br><br>Yeah, 6 Underground is not a good score by any means (neither Gemini Man, but is far more listenable), but works perfectly in the hiperbolic movie.
I expected a lot from this score, and the truth is that it left me cold. Honestly, I think it is Bay's fault, Balfe has shown that he is capable of doing everything, but here it gives the feeling of being covered. Again, Balfe must focus on fewer projects and the projects he accepts are of quality.There are speculations about the track "Til Death Do Us Part "as being composed by Brandon Campbell. Can anyone confirm whether it was Djawadi or Campbell who composed it?Come to Portugal again.> which ones are listenable<br>all of the ones I listed are the melodic/orchestral moments in the score not counting Memories and Beautiful Sunday.<br>Listen to Haunt the Living, Thrones, A Million Battles or One, But Not Done and tell me that the score is a travesty.Knight - okay, let us know which ones of these tracks are even listenable? Hyperbolic nonsense defines this score, but I do not blame Balfe - this would have been what Bay wanted. Such a shame to see his artistic credibility reduced to this after the stellar work on His Dark Materials and acceptable material on Gemini Man,.

Celice is a single from the latest album "Analogue" by A-Ha (composed by Magne Furuholmen/ Martin Terefe -- lyrics by Magne Furuholmen). They just used this song on the film -- it was not composed specially for it.

I listened to the whole score and this is so goood !!! best of Hans of these last years !

Does anyone know if the music from the site of the movie will be in the score.

P Lomax reply Replies: 0 || 2006-05-05 00:00:00
Celice by a-ha should have teamed up with the film,A-ha are a very misunderstood band but they had a great track for the Da Vinci code which has sadly lost its way,I'l bet there was money invloved or Lack of?Hans is good though but A-ha Would have been fantastic!

S Hughes reply Replies: 0 || 2006-05-05 00:00:00
The a-ha track"Celice" should have been on this.Hans is good but a-ha are Great!

On our News from February, the 27th, we put an extract from a Jim Dooley's Interview ; we could read :
"Hans has all ready... pardon the pun... cracked the code, so to speak. Before I came in to lift a finger, he'd written a 700-bar suite for this score, it's pretty breathtaking, my participation in this is not so much the upfront writer, but more the extension due to the slightly accelerated schedule of production, we've been scoring four weeks from yesterday, so it's pretty tight."

Ron should hired Arvo Part to do the scores.

Myotis , Hans is the composer of the soundtrack so he's of course an arranger of the score :)
Dooley's an additionnal composer ( additionnal music) for this score right.

Richard Harvey also composed the last song "Kyrie For The Magdaleine" ( strange this track isnt listed on this page )

Myotis reply Replies: 0 || 2006-04-30 00:00:00
NICOLAS-----WEBMASTER---ONE QUESTION FOR YOU, PLEASE

JIm dooley is credited to the cd as Additional arranger or as additional music?

im impacient for listenig this score!!!!! the last job of the king Zimmer.

From here you can find quite a lot of information on the soundtrack:
http://www.iclassics.com/productDetail?contentId=64530

And here I have gathered the sound which I hope is from the Soundtrack by Hanz Zimmer which is played as background music for the site of the film. The Style is Zimmer's Style and if the vocals in the soundtrack are going to be this smart, therefore we're in for a big one from Zimmer. Here are the highlights as one mp3:

Those who are interesteed in this score should visit the da vinci code site: http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/thedavincicode/

There are some really good excerpts from the score in the background and if you give some time and then click on the da vinci gallery you have some more music. Some very good vocal parts of the score could easily be heard in the trailer.

To finish up the tracklist given in the site contains another track: 14. Kyrie For The Magdalene


I still have my doubts about some names altough they are in Latin, I could still follow them and they don't seem to follow the book. I hope that the film is truthfull to the book... This might be one of the best scores Zimmer might have produced considering the parts I have listened from the site

Here is an audio excerpt from the film that could possibly be the music from the film:

As for the dialogues? I personally don't think so.

Any idea as to when he will release some samples? Because if I remember right, Harry Gregson-Williams did that with his Narnia score before the soundtrack even came out.

Because August 5 is a bit far off.... usually soundtracks are released before the movie. (In my experiance, that is).

ok, guys

I'd like you to explain how this score can be rated 85% ? It's not released yet !!! ---)

Please, try to give an evaluation just when you listened to the score, it would be better for the credibility from this rating place !! :-)

Sylvos reply Replies: 0 || 2006-04-11 00:00:00
I do hope that they won't include any dialogues into this one like they did for Hannibal. No matter how well it's performed, the dialogues never really work for me and I find them irritating.
