>>217801810/thread
>>217801810I do like a lot of work, but I don't know enough about music composition to have an educated opinion
morricone > allam*ricans will never understand
>>217801968Just listen with your ears, man. There is such thing as an educated opinion when it comes to music, but first step is listening. I don't think you need to understand music theory to know good from bad. You just need to have open ears and listen to a lot. Maybe a concentration span for longer pieces helps too.
>>217801810Ecstasy of Gold is good and all but I prefer John Carpenter

>>217801810Wrong, John Williams is the GOAT film composer.
>>217802879and the Dark Knight.
>>217802176You need to have an understanding of a craft to appreciate the skill of a craftsman. That isn't the same thing as the music being "good". It's more about the music being clever and elegantly constructed. Whether the music is "good" has nothing to do with attention span or how open your ears are or whatever, it's completely subjective and depends on how your brain interprets music and the cultural context of the music you grew up with. People who act smug and superior because they love classical music are pretentious NPCs. I am classically trained in the piano and honestly a lot of classical music is slop.
>>217802931>Wrong, John Williams is the GOAT film composer.too bad john williams never scored any true kino films that could elevate his scores to morricones levels. he'll always be stuck making capeslop themes
>>217802792Didn't Goldenthal score like five movies and then fucked off to become a conductor or someshit?
not joking around when i say this silly old adult swim skit gives you a better sense of top composers than most 4chud posts will https://youtu.be/WXgNo5Smino
>>217803011He moved on to compose contemporary orchestral music. I think he saw which direction hollywood film scoring was heading and said fuck that and did his own thing.
Sicario soundtrack was very good, shame the guy died

>>217801848>>217801891zimmer is such a fucking hack that he stole morricone's harmonica theme from OUATITW for dune, he's the most laziest composer around. that's not even mentioning how much of star wars is stolen from holsthttps://youtu.be/HnES5cg-5Rc?si=1Vvp_q18Tpj4c54a
I love David Lynch, but I hate how it's overshadowed Angelo's other work.https://youtu.be/KRF78AGvIoQ?si=QOPpV9s1lLRn2k2t
