"Whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." - 1 Corinthians 10:31b

The soundtrack to ANTZ is pretty awesome!

I had the pleasure of hearing a live orchestra perform the soundtrack to Interstellar this week, alongside the film, and that's affirmed by belief that Hans Zimmer's score is one of the greatest ever. Deeply moving unexplainable ways. There was spontaneous applause after the docking scene.

I am personally not a fan of Hans Zimmer's Dark Knight music, it's not really my taste. Though I love most of the Pirates of the Caribbean score. The score he did for The Bible TV series is also pretty neat.

"Bless you for making this." -Sloth 2016 * on "Chicken Shaped Lighthouse Attacks Police"

Ephesians 4:29 -"Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers."

Personal favourite single track, the Serenity theme by David Newman from... Uh, Serenity. I'm partially biased since I simply adore Firefly, but I also just think it's an incredible piece of music that fits the film so perfectly.

On a less biased level, everything Howard Shore wrote for the LOTR films. That score was just magical.

I don't really have a vast array of music knowledge at my disposal, focusing instead on the visual facet of art, however I am familiar with a fair number of film composers and scores.

My favourite soundtrack, hands down, is the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy soundtrack by Howard Shore: Complete LOTR Soundtrack. I really don't have words for how some of the music makes me feel. Absolutely amazing in my book.

That said, I do enjoy a lot of others. Some of the ones that come to the top of my head immediately are (in no particular order):

Han's Zimmer:
Pirates of the Carribean Example: Main Theme
Sherlock Holmes Example: Catatonic
This entire soundtrack has such a different sound from typical movie scores. I really like a lot of the tracks.
Inception Example: Time

Joe Hisaishi:
Spirited Away Example: The Sixth Station
I really don't remember most of the music in Spirited Away all that much but I do really like some of it.
Castle in the Sky Example: The Girl Who Fell from the Sky
I really love the example song I listed here (sort of the main theme of the movie).

Yann Tiersen:
Amélie Example: La Noyée
Oddly enough, I haven't even seen the movie. I don't even remember how I found this soundtrack honestly... I just love it. Accordians ftw.

Bruno Coulais:
Song of the Sea Example: Dance With The Fish
I just watched the movie, and let me say, I was blown away. Not only is it a great movie, some of the music is simply enchanting.

John Powell:
How To Train Your Dragon Example: Test Drive
The movie is good, the music is better. So many of the songs in HTTYD are amazing.

Vangelis:
Chariots Of Fire Example: Chariots Of Fire
The theme song is mostly the reason I like this score.

John Williams:
Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark Example: Main Theme
Yep, John Williams had to be here someplace...

Well, those are some of my personal favorites. I might add to this list as I remember more great soundtracks/scores that I love.

Pretty Much the first soundtrack I actually cared for as a whole:

The Rocketeer

Though, since then, I've found myself purchasing many soundtrack albums just for their beautiful scores. Case in point:

Atlantis the Lost Empire - Expedition Crew's Music, "Atlantan Civilization's" Music, and this little snippet.

I just love those old style, over the top and very whimsical scores like those seen in Star Wars and Indiana Jones. But, I'm also a sucker for those 1950's and earlier massively epic pieces that nearly out-shined anything that could be done on film at the time.

Here's a great example.

I'm a fan of Alexandre Desplat's work, my favourite's the score he did for The Grand Budapest Hotel, but he's done a whole range of stuff, from The King's Speech to Godzilla.

Yep, Zimmer, Williams, Elfman. They're all great. Anything with a harmonium or an organ from Interstellar, undoubtedly ties with any end-credits track from TDK or TDKR for the spot of being my personal favourite track from Hans.

But, once in awhile, a new musician will come in and make a soundtrack that really blows me away. A lot of Alexandre Desplat's work is really great, especially for Tree of Life, Fantastic Mr. Fox, and The Imitation Game. They all have something new to offer, and his sound has inspired me the most. Tree of Life offers daunting piano music. Fantastic Mr. Fox includes honky-tonk, backwoods banjo riffs that are a lot of fun to listen to. And The Imitation Game abounds in complex and mesmerizing technical tunes that are simple, but beautiful.

Also, the TRON: Legacy soundtrack is, without a doubt, the only good thing to ever come out of Daft Punk. Not all the tracks are that great, but some are just thrilling to listen to. I've actually never seen either of the movies in that franchise, but after listening to some of the tracks, I might give the movies a chance in the near-future. Plus, going from Steve Aoki to "Derezzed" or "The Game Has Changed" during a techno/house jam session during Biology offers naught but progressive house pleasure.
