Varese Records brings another Brian Tyler film score to the forefront "Paparazzi", featuring 32 short cues with aggressive arrangements loaded with action sequences laced with percussion galore ~ director Paul Abascal shows us just what we thought was going on with the Paparazzi, his cast for the film is right up there Cole Hauser [Bo Laramie], Robin Tunney [Abby Laramie], Dennis Farina [Detective Burton], the next four actors Tom Sizemore [Rex Harper], Daniel Baldwin [Wendell Stokes], Tom Hollander [Leonard Clark] play the paparazzi gang that Bo Laramie is up against.

A brilliant mix of musicians with Brian Tyler our composer, Adam Klemens is the conductor and Azan Aki on vocals ~ The City of Prague Philharmonic and The Northwest Sonfonia let the fur fly with forceful biting fast moving themes, perfect score for this film ~ opening "CAT AND MOUSE", with fast percussion mixed with echoing strings and brass, shifting to the next track "AFTERMATH", very large array of orchestration ethnic instruments and vocal sets the mood and the rest fall into place ~ give a listen to "PREMIERE", electric guitars and the strobe lights flicker in your eyes ~ "FANS AND LIGHTS", music box arrangement with a solo voice in the distance, a slower more sublime effect.

All the "film-score-buffs" are familiar with his past scores ~ instantly recognizable and lending to immediate credibility to any film he works on...Brian Tyler, just the way we like 'em!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another excellent score from Brian!, September 17, 2004

I am more and more impressed by this composer's musical capabilities with each score he puts out. While he stumbled a bit with the awkward score to Godsend, Paparazzi shows that Brian is back in true form. His new score is very rhythmic with quite a lot of percussion, it could very well rival anything coming out of Media Ventures. I definitely encourage anyone interested in film music to pick this one up. The Final Cut, another score by Brian, will be released on September 28th. I will looking forward to that score and his upcoming score for the film Constantine which is based on the Hellblazer comic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another excellent score from Tyler, September 4, 2004

This is one of many of Brian Tyler's scores in the last year after Children of Dune, The Hunted, Timeline, Darkness Falls, Bubba Ho-tep, Godsend, and I am sure some others. The latest soundtrack is stylisitically action oriented while the melodic content is emotionally closest to Children of Dune. The action music is gripping with modern touches combined with a mighty orchestral sound that the young composer has mastered beyond his years. It is another great soundtrack to a film that has a limited audience. Yet it is one of the best action scores of the year with themes that I will be with me for a long time.
