How many times do you have to hear something to form an opinion of it..?? Once is usually fine...twice is usually plenty....and sometimes a coule of words is fine to describe what you think about it.the fact that a composer is prolific is totally irrelevant.

[Shrublands]

Isn´t it wonderful that on the internet one can dismiss the hard work of a prolific composer with just a few words (and probably after listening to it only once or twice)?

So ... away from the Internet ... say at a party ... if someone tells you that they just saw a movie and that "it stunk" do you criticize them for forming an opinion after only seeing the movie once? Do you share how nice it must be for them to weigh in on the hard work of a filmmaker with only a couple words?

Exactly, you’ve listened to it, you’re perfectly entitled to tell us what you think of it.

Is there any breakdown available of which SKYFALL tracks are featured in the Cinematic Sound broadcast? Thanks.

Just guessing, based on comparisons to the samples (not necessarily in this order): Grand Bazaar, Bloody Shot, Komodo Dragon, Breadcrumbs, Moors, Jellyfish, and a few others I can't recall.

Thanks. I've made a bit of a comparison now myself. The timecodes are only approximate, but I'm pretty sure the tracks are correct:

00:31 Grand Bazaar, Istanbul

11:32 Severine
12:48 Jellyfish
16:05 Silhouette
16:58 Komodo Dragon
20:15 The Bloody Shot

25:50 The Chimera
27:47 Enquiry
30:35 Breadcrumbs
32:37 She’s Mine
36:23 The Moors
38:51 Mother

[MattofSteel]

Looks/sounds about right.

[marktmurphy]

That final one was rather surprising, as I remember. I liked it a lot.

Worth quoting again for anyone who's missed it.

[Vauxhall]

Classic FM just played "Komodo Dragon" as part of their Bond special. Among my favourites so far. Got a bit of everything in there.

And now "She's Mine". Impressed.

which one are you referring to?

[marktmurphy]

The last one. I suppose it's 'Mother'? I don't know.

True that!

[Victor Zokas]

Returning to the thread´s topic: I can´t stop listening to the "iFly"-piece. I´m pretty sure it´s part of Newman´s score.

... and if it´s not, does anybody know who composed it? It´s so perfect for a Bond film - I would love to have MORE of that music!

Did we ever find out the composer of this track?

[MattofSteel]

Nope. Someone at whoever Coke's DM agency is, presumably. Wasn't half bad, was it?

[Victor Zokas]

It'll always be part of the Skyfall soundtrack for me.

[Vauxhall]

"Mother" is the last one in that suite, yes.

[junkanoo]

IFly? Wouldn't that be KLM's agency? Regardless, it is quite nice.

Mother is quite nice ... or has she been bad ...

[The Shark]

Complete opening cue hits Youtube.

[DamnCoffee]

3:22 onwards is just beautiful.

[sharpshooter]

Can anyone confirm whether there's been any big Bond theme moments yet? Apart from Breadcrumbs. The full theme I mean, integrated?

If by "big Bond theme" you mean like CR's "The Name's Bond...James Bond", than I don't believe so.

Portions of it are subtlety integrated throughout the soundtrack though, like in Grand Bazaar and She's Mine, from what I understand.

Indeed. 'Komodo Dragon' and 'Enquiry' have some Bond theme spliced in as well.

[Matt_13]

29:32 sec (approx..) into Part 1 of the podcast, you can hear a musical progression in the strings which is VERY reminicient of the bit in Dr. No where the 3 Blind Mice fail to shoot Bond, due to a car zooming by, as he enters his hotel at night..VERY COOL, Mr. Newman indeed!!

That is so cool! Also, as others have mentioned, the Bond theme in Breadcrumbs sounds almost exactly like the theme heard in the PTS of Goldfinger. Talk about fan service!

[sharpshooter]

A track I have always liked since the samples came out is ‘The Moors’. To me, it sounds like something that suits Craig’s Bond. It has an element of hardness to it, as well as a simple but catchy melody. It’s one of my favourite modern Bond cues, actually.

[univex]

That opening cue is just wonderful. Love it all. Thank heavens for not having to see Craig and listen to Brosnan at the same time: cognitive dissonance I tell ya, pure torture (Shark will understand this )

Oh, BTW:

[killkenny kid]

Wow, now we blame Brosnan for the music too.....lol.

[The Shark]

The Bond theme's in:

Grand Bazaar, Istanbul
Brave New World
Day Wasted
Someone Usually Dies
Komodo Dragon (combined with Adele song's melody)
The Bloody Shot
Granborough Road
Enquiry
Breadcrumbs
She's Mine
Deep Water
Adreneline

Plus there's:

"M" Theme

Voluntary Retirement
Mother

"Urban" Theme

Shanghai Drive
Adrenaline

[sharpshooter]

I see what The Dove means about the Doctor No cue similarity. Very cool indeed, thanks for pointing it out. It has to be intentional.

[DamnCoffee]

Really hoping for a sudden burst of Bond theme like these...

4:55


5:35

[univex]

Wow, now we blame Brosnan for the music too.....lol.

No what I did there I just always wanted Craig to have his own "sound" by a different composer.

Disclaimer: And I do like Arnold, as I do like Pierce. But both of them are not dogmas within the Bond canon. Not for me anyway. Not like Connery or Barry.

[killkenny kid]

I was joking, and I begining to feel the same way about each actors having there own sound or composer.

[DamnCoffee]

3:00 in 'She's Mine'. Lovely!

Quite right - Thunderball indeed.

It's like those opening orchestra hits scream "BOND MOVIE!". love it.

I think that moment where I abandon the forums until the domestic release is rapidly approaching.

[QuantumOfRoyale]

Oh, BTW:

Thanks for this!! Sounds amazing! Really am not getting the hate this version of the theme is receiving. It's giving me chills!
