Gamesmaster Posted 27 August 2006 Posted 27 August 2006 From the Lord of the Rings, main theme. Seems to fit nicely with twin tower footage. http://www.dailymotion.com/popular/video/x...-2-tours-wtc911 Would be a great intro before a city match.
DanTheFoxBhoy Posted 27 August 2006 Posted 27 August 2006 Have you seen the movie? (Requiem for a Dream that is) Great piece of music, but it would probably induce our downward spiral into the hell of conference if the movie is anything to go by!

Have you seen the trailer someone made mixing Requiem For A Dream with Toy Story 2? Done well http://www.bradsucks.net/music/videos/toys..._requiem_hi.wmv Anyway, the Requiem For A Dream soundtrack is ace, and so are the Kronos Quartet in general (they did the music). I love that film.
Gamesmaster Posted 27 August 2006 Author Posted 27 August 2006 No i havn't seen the film requiem for a dream. This tune makes me think of what could be, i sit here with goose pimples listening to the thrust, energy and the symbols clashing, its a real stirring peice of work. When this tune ends, its sudden, i thought the post horn gallop kicking in after it would work well. Is Requiem for a dream, just the soundtrack name for the film, or is it the name of this peice of music as clip? http://kronosquartet.org/records/indiv.php?id=110

The soundtrack is performed by the Kronos Quartet and a lot of the tracks on it and in teh film are based on that particular tune in the clip0, if you will. Watch the film, the music is perfect for that as well. When ever I play the Requiem For A Dream soundtrack my friend Laura will leave the room because it creeps her out because the film creeps her out. It's an awesome film, but definately not for the squeamish as you get towards the end, it gets the Kokopops Seal Of Approval. After watching it though you'll see what Dan means when he says "it would probably induce our downward spiral into the hell of conference if the movie is anything to go by!". I'm gonna go watch it now I think.

Why does it say "Requiem for a Dream: Soundtrack by Clint Mansell" in the above Kronos link, if Kronos perfomed the tunes, did Clint write them?

Why does it say "Requiem for a Dream: Soundtrack by Clint Mansell" in the above Kronos link, if Kronos perfomed the tunes, did Clint write them? The music in that video is a remixed version of "Lux Aeterna" called "Requiem For A Tower" and featured on the Lord Of The Rings trailer for the second film. It's basically the same as Lux Aeterna but with the added drums. A lot of the soundtrack is quite similar and uses the same tune but slightly different, so I had to look up which actual song is remixed there. Summer Overture is another good 'un, which is similar and I prefer so I recommend that as well, probably over Lux Aeterna. Clint Mansell is the composer, he also composed the music for Pi, Darren Aronofsky's first film which lead to him composing the music for his second film Requiem For A Dream, which the Kronos Quartet performed.

Brilliant information, thanks. Ive got summer overture, 2.35 mins? Think i might go and get Lux Aeterna from the russians now THANKS!
Alexikokopops Posted 28 August 2006 Posted 28 August 2006 Brilliant information, thanks. Ive got summer overture, 2.35 mins? Think i might go and get Lux Aeterna from the russians now THANKS! Yeah, it's 2.35 mins. Lux Aeterna's 3.54 mins I aim to please.
Gamesmaster Posted 28 August 2006 Author Posted 28 August 2006 ' date='Aug 28 2006, 01:06 AM' post='384772']Yeah, it's 2.35 mins. Lux Aeterna's 3.54 mins I aim to please. You do. My Lux Aeterna is 3.46, a bit less dramatic, more choir music, but good all the same. My summer overture is more like requien for a tower than Luxy.
DanTheFoxBhoy Posted 28 August 2006 Posted 28 August 2006 a bit less dramatic, more choir music, but good all the same Yeah. I loved the remix, but once you see the film you'll see the Tower version (very epic) wouldn't really suit Requiem cos the film is essentially urban and down to earth. Like Alex said, not for the squemish. If you smoke you will need a few cigs after it finishes
Gamesmaster Posted 28 August 2006 Author Posted 28 August 2006 I dont smoke cigs, jamacian woodbine will chill me out How do you spell "squemish", Alex spelt it with an A, me and you didnt. Every word with a Q, then has a U, Qu, so why the A, Alex?
