  Congrats to the winners (?)

  I downloaded this a few days ago (since no money lost for La-La Land) and this OST definitely isn't my cuppa. Very weird combination of 80s synths, jazz-like noodling and steel drums with key clashing and tempo changes throughout. Many times it sounds like Mike Oldfield's TUBULAR BELLS to freestyle trumpeting and percussion (or a failed attempt at an 80s remix version of THE LITTLE MERMAID'S ''Under the sea''). As an example, try the track ''Matrix Climbs Up Bank'' - it's ridiculous. Glad La-La Land instantly recouped on this, though I have no understanding why. I suppose there's standard James Horner under there somewhere.

  I've been having trouble downloading free music ever since limewire was shut down.

  Sorry, I don't post 'those kind of links' publicly

  by justmyluck

  But if you can't find it with a Google, something's amiss!

  Here's a better link - Horner's 2011 re-issue of BATTLE BEYOND THE STARS

  by justmyluck

  Over 70 minutes of score, and comes with bonus tracks including a Howarth track and his sound effects library at the end. Really deluxe package with a picture disc and a booklet which covers basically everything about the recording. Suprised Scorekeeper missed this: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005HAP2OC

  I should clarify: the BBTS Horner score portion is about 42 minutes.

  If Massa didn't review Vampires Suck, why do you think he'd do Bucky Larson?

  Managed to get my copy

  by Phimseto

  Not too many soundtracks left on my 'to get' list. A nice official "Excalibur" soundtrack is still my Holy Grail (pun intended). Not sure what else. The two-fer of "Commando" and "The Black Hole" was awesome.

  The analogue loop spooled around the entire studio for this track.

  by UltraTron

  I love this music. It's complete fantasy music. It's not beholden to any genre. Horner was flying maverick with this score. He was young upstartin it
