^i have tried cutting PT parts with music from similar periods as the OT, or earlier if we imagine TPM came out in 1968.

My favourite two are Clash of the Titans, and Ben-Hur. But that is only because I have those. Someone did an amazing music cut of the pod race to a Close Encounters a while back.


Interesting, I'd like to see it.  I've been looking at other star wars soundtracks for ideas mostly, and even found a few.  Mostly I think I'd want to avoid using too much music from other movies mostly because it might be too recognizable and/or clash with the existing movie soundtrack.....but it'd be cool to see.

One thing to think about is that there is music that was not used, so if those pieces were reinstated it could sound much better.

True.  To be fair, I haven't combed the AOTC soundtrack very extensively, but most of the geonosis battle really does feel like a pastiche of canned music from the OT and TPM from what I can hear, but i'd love to see some restored music tracks and see if it injects more life into it.

I have a possible candidate for an alternate track, but I'll have to wait until I get back home tonight where my footage is to see how it plays out.
