I’m not much of a soundtrack guy at all, so I really have no opinion on any them…but it’s interesting to hear you guys discuss how good TFA is after hearing months of how bad or boring it is.
That what happens when you listen to the soundtrack outside of the film.
I’m trying to imagine certain members here watching a movie outside of their brains.
Like a Vegan Shark that is most inconceivable. What is however are people not liking the soundtrack based on how it was presented in the film and to that I agree. The best example is “Snoke” which is a pretty good song but is reduced to mere background noise in the film.
Honestly it’s kinda background noise on the soundtrack too (probably the only track I regularly skip). I think the film used it exactly how it should have been.
By barely being able to hear it at all? Even though it’s more ambient than most songs on the soundtrack you can still hear the chanting clearly which you can’t when watching the film. And the 2nd part of the song is even less audible.
The mix is just fine considering it’s ambient nature, I do think you should just barely be able to hear it. The second part, with the strings, is in the second Snoke scene so if you’re looking for it in his first scene you won’t find it.
