3.0 out of 5 stars 3.5 Stars for The Clearing, January 31, 2006

This review is from: The Clearing (Score) (Audio CD)

I'm not too familiar with Craig Armstrong. I know what movies he's scored, and I own the occasional track from his music, but I don't own too many albums of his. The Clearing is a darn good movie that opened with little fanfare, as did the score. This score is better than you'd think. True, a lot of it is background music. There are some tracks which could be excluded from this almost hour long album to make it tighter and more attention grabbing. But if you're a fan of electronic suspense scores that are underscored with tragic strings and heartbreaking pianos, then this CD is for you. It doesn't jump out at you, but gradually lets you know of it's presence. Besides, if nothing else, you should get it for the I Have Everything I Need track, which is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
cheers

This review is from: The Clearing (Score) (Audio CD)

overloaded with soulless synth noise,this score gets it's two stars for the few moody solo piano cues included..One wonders if,in this new century,film-makers now go out of thier way to hire"composers",like Armstong,who define"music"as being a few computer keyboard taps rather than something written for humans with both talent and real instruments,to actually play?I,for one,long for more John Williams,more James Horner,More James Newton-Howard,guys who write REAL MUSIC!I cannot,for the life of me,imagine why ANYONE would want to sit around FOR ALMOST AN HOUR,and listen to an album of"music"which,aside from a few piano solos,consists mainly of BUZZING COMPUTER SOUNDS ,all sounding very much alike....
