Steve is composing the music for “Why Women Kill” season 2. Checked three episodes and looks like its first for 5 or so years Jablonsky score that I really like. It strongly reminds me of his Desperate Housewifes music and some parody movies works.
Composer credits:
Steve Jablonsky, Jared Fry
WTF IS A CLOUD?
ONE WORLD ONLY
Steve Jablonsky, Nathan Whitehead
YELLOW CORVETTE
WHOLE LOTTA DRUGS
LET'S GO
How do you know that? Nathan is not on credits
He’s listed as composer in the album metadata and on the cuesheet. Him not being listed in the actual credits is a Steve problem as he’s had nonsense crediting (or just a plain lack of it) for a long time.
Steve just released his website, he has some unreleased tracks from Keanu and so on. I'm currently listening to Origin Story tracks and they are gorgeous, way different to what he does with Berg and sound design-ish scores. Steve still has it.
Did anyone preserve those tracks? Or any tracks from his website? Cause it is broken for a couple of years now
Saw the movie, and give to credit to Steve (and Berg), the score works well in the movie, yeah, lot of synthetizers and guitars (and disorted sound design for a much darker sequences), but accomplish the tone and Walhberg's character (plus, you get in the album the theme for him).
But still, i prefer Bloodshot over this.
PS: TMNT 2 is a blast
TF5 was not a "nightmare", it's just that at the very end it got super frustrating that they had to reedit the movie so much and it was very complicated for him to meet the deadline so he called LB for help. But that was the same in TF3.
===============
Exactly!
@dingelding:
Actually, i never minded his work with sound design (The Island or Battleship, altough, never top his work in the Transformers series or Your Highness, only Age of Extinction was dissapointing), but Spenser wasn't good, specially with you compared with Skyscraper (is a much better score, altough is pretty ok to me) and Bloodshot (is a much better score than Spenser, and far more Jablonsky-esque)
Shit, even i think Gangster Squad and Pain & Gain are much better than Spenser
In my eyes, you're all doing him wrong. Jablonsky never changed his style. But you are so boring and always want to have a Transformers-like score. Before Transformers, he used to make music with synthesizers and I think he can do it. He reinvents himself and doesn't always use the same samplers. Occurs but not as extreme as some others. Clearly it was a disappointment with the Transformers 5 that not all of its music was in the film and was changed. But nothing new! It has appeared in so many films! Even with the previous films in the Transformers series. Some pieces were not used completely or only appeared in the following film. Deepwater Horizon has a great score that just sounds a bit neutral and takes up the happenings atmospherically. Which fits very well! Likewise with Skyscraper these horny deep string sounds. Bloodshot never looked like a kindergarten Marvel movie or a DC movie to me. If Vin Diesel participates, it is known that he is invincible. Come on Bad Ass music. I've been a big fan of Jablonsky since his first Texas Chainsaw Massacre score. I couldn't say that he has let up. I don't always need music with a 100 man orchestra. Although I think that he relies on everything at Bloodshot. I like the guitars as much as the synthesizers. If the name Hans Zimmer were there some would say "What a masterpiece!" Like the poor Dunkirk Score or the not outstanding Inception Score. Likewise your super exaggerated hyped Lorne Balfe which I would rather hit one on the mouth. Because it is light years away from memorable music! BUT that was already the case when he composed the additional music. If I consider what Jablonsky, Harry Gregson-Williams, Geoff Zanelli etc. did as additional composers. Then there is a mess that Balfe has always been involved in the music of Michael Bay films. I'm getting sick! Steve Jablonsky has worked on Michael Bay films since 1998. Since 2003 he has been composing scores for the horror remakes. Since 2005 he has been the main composer of Michael Bay films. The fact that not every Jablonsky score is a hit is clear, but not very bad either. Like now Friday the 13th, I didn't have to have a score from. I also think it's good that Steve Jablonsky isn't just attached to Michael Bay. But also works with new directors. very good cooperation with Peter Berg. What about his score for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – Out of the Shadows ?! Great work! Great theme for the Turtles! I liked it more than Brian Tyler's work on part one. Although I'm also a big Brian Tyler fan. I'm looking forward to the Spenser Confidential and Red Notice scores, and many more. But to assume that he would have lost his inspiration is already awesome. Just because he took a little time out for his children.
TF5 is not Spenser Confidential, is not the same thing.
If Peter Berg asked for something like sound design (the score is pretty disappointing, yes), that deliver that for the director, not because is frustated for other movie.
Not every composer have 5 masterpieces or good scores in one year. ;)
