By A Customer

This review is from: Phone Booth [Original Motion Picture Score] (Audio CD)

Does anyone know what the song that was used in the trailer for Phone Booth is? its not the Six Days song. its kind of a techno riff, with raspy male vocals. write a review please if you know.

2.0 out of 5 stars Down for the Count, November 6, 2003

HGW was orchestrator and arranger for such as Stanley Myers and Hans Zimmer, while learning the secrets of the trade. He worked with Zimmer in"Broken Arrow","As Good As It Gets"and "Smilla's..."before scoring full name. After"The Replacement Killers", he teamed up with Trevor Rabin for "Enemy of the State"and with John Powell for"Ant Z"and"Chicken Run"."Spy Game"showed, beyond a doubt,he had his own voice, and what a voice.
Which brings us to"Phone Booth".And what is this?It has nothing to do with his previous work,Zimmer's style or anything I've ever heard.This new score is...original,to say the least.I'ts made of strange moods provided by electronic percussions and little more.The problem is:does it always pay off to be different?We gotta be honest:even though the music serves the movie well and it has that unique feel,when you put the CD running and close your eyes, it doesn't sound like much.Tracks never seem to pick up and they are interrupted before they establish the tone.
It sounds good, but it's like half a score.HGW can do a lot better.

Great Movie.. Yes.. But...wheres the cool drum & bass beat in the beginging of the movie and the closing song "Six Days" during the end credits? Both of these songs I was hoping to get and arn't on this soundtrack. I don't want boring scores. IF YOUR GOING TO MAKE A SOUNTRACK PUT ALL THE MUSIC FROM THE MOVIE ON IT!!!
