Dead Ringers: Symphonic Suites From The Films Of David Cronenberg/Howard Shore
I've been on a Cronenberg kick lately. The Brood is one of my all time favorite flicks and probably my personal fave Cronenberg movie even though I love everything that I've seen of his. He's actually my favorite director of all time as well. I love his ideas and the blur between reality and hallucination.
His movies are almost always accompanied by Howard Shore. He always provides just the right sound without being overly in your face or too subtle.
Here is a rare compilation featuring a suite from The Brood. It's the only way I've been able to obtain ANY music from this film.
Also featured is the score to Scanners, which is probably the closest you'll get to a flamboyent Shore/Cronenberg score. Pretty rowdy electronic stuff going on here at times.
The Dead Ringers score is much more in line with The Brood and other Shore/Cronenberg scores. Very moody orchestral stuff.

ReplyDeletea little reward for you fine shares
Great blog! Wanted you to know, howerer: There is a significant ERROR - GLITCH in the track "Suicide" for Dead Ringers at the 4:17-4:18 mark. Is there any way you can re-up a fixed version of this track? I tried re-downloading/unzipping the entire file for this score but it's still there in the track. I would love to have a fixed version as it is one of my favorite tracks in the score. Thank you regardless for uploading this great CD !
