love this score. hasn't grown on me. was listening to it on my commute today. do you guys know if the track "psychological recovery" is the "suite" that came first. and then other cues developed from it? thanks
Hybrid Soldier
2018-08-16 17:54:33
Nope, not a suite, a mix of about 4/5 cues.
Edmund Meinerts
2018-08-16 17:56:53
No, "Psychological Recovery" is scored to picture, a bunch of cues put together from the climax of the film. IIRC the first three minutes or so are a solo Balfe cue actually.
Mike
2018-08-16 18:36:53
...and a very good solo Balfe cue, at that. That theme and Hans' Moriarty theme are the most engaging ideas of these movies, to me.
Hey, while I'm here, any word on Hans doing the third movie?
Why you still don't add the Complete Score Page? It's since a long time out

Its because its the film mix as opposed to the sessions, isnt it?
Anonymous
2018-05-15 15:19:06
yes it is the film mix. I have it. plays like an isolated score. including source cues.
Edmund Meinerts
2018-05-15 16:14:16
Yeah, it's pretty frustrating. It's full of unmusical crossfades and volume fluctuations, and to be honest there isn't a whole lot of worthwhile material there that wasn't already covered by the album (only the Dredger/boatyard fight music is really necessary). Still worth checking out if you're a big fan of the score, of course, but if you skip it you're not missing too much.
mpolonest123
2018-05-15 17:22:18
Someone did an edit on that release which removes the source music and cross fades, as well as fixing the volume. Still not great but much better than the other version.
But Edmund is right, almost everything necessary (excluding the Dredger fight and Blackwood Resurrection) is on the album. Probably one of Zimmer’s best album releases.
Medigo
2018-05-15 17:47:21
I also quite like the Saving Irene/Blackwood Plan Explained tracks and the proper opening of course
Bibi
2018-06-07 15:25:08
I've got the new edit of the recording sessions, it's so much better than the previous one. Now I don't see any quality difference with the recordings sessions of Game of Shadows.
what's now with a Complete Score Page for Sherlocke Holmes & Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows??

The album for that one is such a disaster. I don't remember much about the score in film but I do remember there being a lot of really good stuff. Would love to hear a complete...
Hey Hybrid how come there is no page for the complete score? That would be awesome if you made one! With credits and all!! :D

Zimson

.. because its just another silly waste of time and space to post a score that no one can ever buy legally. I just steal them myself off of pirated websites, screw the law.
Adam
2015-04-09 02:13:06
But isn't it nice to have a proper place to discuss it? And there's no way of legally buying it so there's only one option! I would just like to have the credits that Hybrid Soldier posts on some of the other complete scores. That information is most helpful and I am thankful for that :)

@Adam, I believe somewhere down the page, you might read that Hybrid Soldier doesn't care for the version of the complete score that became available not too long ago. And if you know anything about how Hybrid Soldier is, you could figure that if he doesn't like something, then it doesn't deserve to have its own page...or some bullshit.
Adam
2015-04-09 20:52:30
Yup I read further down the page and saw him comment as well as the cues with all credits. Silly me XD
It's too bad it won't get a page but oh well!
Zimson

If you're the same guy who thought the earth is 6000 years old, I recommend you to get help.
Interesting....Remember how Hybrid said that if Lorne gets an "additional music / score producer" credit, it's a disguised way of saying he's a co-composer? Well if you look at the "Thanks" section in here and on Inception, it lists "Eva and David Balfe", who are usually only thanked in scores where Lorne is a fully-fledged composer, right? ;)
Anonymous
2014-05-07 18:25:53
Part of me thinks that calling Balfe a co-composer on this one is understatement.
Mike
2014-05-07 19:28:36
Same with Inception and any other score of Hans' he "produced"....lol
Zimson
2014-06-03 19:08:13
He did the first half, or so of "Psychological Recovery... 6 Months", the rest is basically arrangements, I suppose.
I always thought Discombobulate was by Hans? On lornebalfe.com it says that the end credits music is by Lorne (It's basically the same thing).
MacArthur
2014-02-11 19:29:15
I think it's by both.
Mike
2014-02-11 19:48:59
It's Lorne Balfe's arrangement of Hans' original theme (check "Holmes (Hans 'n' Guy Version)"). So it is essentially by Hans, yes. All the elements found in Discombobulate are pretty much in Hans' original theme.
Zimson
2014-02-11 21:00:14
Yeah, the theme is by Hans, but I've once red a post by Hans in a composer forum, where he says that he composed Discombobulate (indirectly, to be honest), after he got criticized by another composer. It was like: "Hey, I wrote it." or sth. like that if I remember it correctly.
Btw, I have the link, but I am not allowed to post it. (Or is it no problem?). Use Google and type in: "Hans Zimmer in a forum!!!??" The first link that should appear is to a thread on the John Williams Fan Network site. The first post features a number of links. Click on the second one from below where it says "(his review about a member's piece, and about Sherlock Holmes)". Then look out for member "rctec".
Hybrid Soldier
2014-02-11 21:06:44
Discombobulate is 90% HZ, what's this debate about ? lol
Zimson
2014-02-11 21:11:57
@Hybrid Well, the end credits music is basically Discombobulate with more brass and and according to Lorne's website it's by him. So I thought this would be worth a discussion.
Mike
2014-02-11 22:36:54
Well even on this website, Lorne's name is under Discombobulate....
RealFfingMusic
2014-02-12 03:37:00
If anyone wants to bet here, I'm on Hans. Apparently Discombobulate is so awesome everybody wants their name on it! (Except Hans, Heh-heh)

Who wrote Blackwood's theme, Lorne Balfe or Hans Zimmer?
SamFisher
2013-09-26 21:14:47
Lorne Balfe
Areozz
2013-09-27 00:22:23
Methinks that by now, Blackwood's theme originated from music that has to be public domain. Unless we're not talking about the same theme, the one I'm thinking of bears a strong resemblance to the tune that grandfather clocks play. In fact, one occurrence of the theme happens during a shot of Big Ben.
Are we thinking of the same theme?
Mike
2013-09-27 00:59:40
I daresay we are. Had you not mentioned it, I wouldn't have noticed the similarities, but now they're really obvious.
MacArthur
2013-09-27 03:15:09
And I think that the "To the Opera" part was Hans If I'm not Mistaken.
Mike
2014-01-28 18:45:34
To the Opera, from the second one, was done by Matthew Margeson. ;)
I'm convinced that "The Game Is On" from the BBC series of Sherlock was influenced by Hans' Sherlock Holmes sound. I could honestly picture that track being in here.
Lorne Balfe is an enigma to me. Sometimes I like his music a lot ("Is It Poison, Nanny?", credited solely to him, is my favorite track on this album, and I love the whole Inception score, as well as the Skylanders and MW2 scores). On the other hand, I dislike some of his stuff and think it sounds cheap (a lot of the TDKR cues and the AC3 score).
Apparently the Game of Shadows album is a bad one...How about this one (I haven't seen the movie in a while, so I can't remember if the music sounded different?)
Hybrid Soldier
2013-07-03 21:05:26
No that one is well done... :)
Richard
2013-07-04 03:17:51
Personally I think Game of Shadows is one of the best releases!
Edmund Meinerts
2013-07-04 11:50:45
Yeah...what with all the music sped up, and most of the score not present in favor of source pieces and classical "mutilations"...definitely one of the BEST releases. :/

2013-07-08 13:38:59
I actually loved the first one but was kinda let down by the second. The first one proved to be a great ally as I navigated the zombie apocalypse. Ever try fighting zombies with Discombobulate in your ears? Don't.

I noticed that, too. As opposed to Inception and TDKR, which sound like they were earlier than the actual film mix.

Hey Hybrid, any idea why some bootlegs from around 2008 (Iron Man and TDK being the best examples) sound much more richly mastered and have more noticeable bass than most others (like POTC and TDKR or even Inception) which sound... emptier, almost?
Hybrid Soldier
2013-05-12 19:06:09
Hard to say... Just depends on the original recording... Some are recorded loud, some are not. Bootlegs are original files so not mastered by definition. There's no rule.

Hybrid Soldier
2013-05-13 14:04:47
I honestly don't know the source, nor understand it. Is it some DVD isolated production (like WarmButter DVDs) ? Is it true sessions "arranged" in film mix by someone ? No idea.
The titles just come from the cue sheet I posted years ago...
And some are even wrong here, Arrival Of Dredger should actually be "Meet Dredger"... ;)
Anonymous
2013-05-13 14:06:21
The slates and titles are clearly from ASCAP. Some cues are mis-titled at parts too.
To be honest, I thought the score to the first movie didn't fit the onscreen material very well (A Game of Shadows was much better with that), but I gotta hand it to Zimmer: he did something different. That's really admirable in and of itself.
01. Opening Titles / Race To Ritual (4:10) 02. Holmes (2:16) 03. Holmes' Room (1:08) 04. Offends Mary (1:53) 05. Arrival At The Prison (3:31) 06. The Man In The Carriage (1:29) 07. Holmes Follows Irene (1:47) 08. Blackwood Resurrection (4:44) 09. Gypsy Fortuneteller (0:58) 10. Irene Subduse Holmes (2:20) 11. Unused Cue (1:34) 12. Corpse Examination (1:05) 13.

Thanks for putting the original soundtrack in film order, Felix, and using the ASCAP track titles. I'm not trying to sound like a dick or anything. I just thought I'd let people know that if an/the edit ever surfaces that corresponds to this list, nothing new or mind-blowing will be found in it.
[I did an analysis of the score myself recently, to put the slate numbers and names to the appropriate music and then took a look at what of that music is available on the OST.]
