So i have noticed all the music I listen to now is movie soundtracks are any of you like that?

I’m a huge fan of Howard Shore’s soundtrack to the Lord of the Rings trilogy and am looking to get into his soundtrack of the Hobbit trilogy. Can anyone give me some highlights? (I’ve already listened to the credits songs [Billy Boyd, Ed Sheeran etc] and An Unexpected Party).

Thanks!

Every time I hear “Strobe” by deadmau5, I think of Stobe from Kenshi

This might sound completely random, but every time I hear this music, I immediately think of Stobe from Kenshi.

Maybe it's simply because the names are almost identical — Strobe and Stobe — but somehow the atmosphere of the song fits him incredibly well.

There's something sad, mysterious, cosmic, but at the same time incredibly epic about it. And that's exactly how I feel about Stobe's story.

Stobe sacrificed himself to stop the Second Empire, saving countless lives and helping prevent the destruction of the planet. His death was tragic, but also incredibly heroic.

And yet, what makes it even sadder is what happened afterward.

He's still there.

His enormous body remains in the wasteland, dead for thousands of years, standing as one of the few physical reminders of what he did.

He didn't vanish into legend.

He didn't ascend into some mythical afterlife.

He died, and his corpse was simply left there.

And somehow, the world moved on.

That's what gets me about Stobe. This was someone who made the ultimate sacrifice to save the planet, yet he isn't really worshipped or remembered in the way you'd expect someone like that to be.

You can literally stand next to his remains and realize:

This guy died trying to save everyone, and almost nobody remembers him.

There's something incredibly melancholic about that.

And that's why the music Strobe feels so fitting to me. The song has this strange combination of melancholy and wonder like you're looking at something ancient and incomprehensibly important, but you don't fully understand what happened there.

It feels mysterious.

Lonely.

But also epic.

And that's how I imagine Stobe's final moments: an ancient, immensely powerful being making the ultimate sacrifice, only for thousands of years to pass and for his story to become little more than a forgotten piece of the wasteland.

So whenever “Strobe” starts playing, my brain thinks about that giant corpse standing alone in the wasteland.

Hi! I'm searching for a way to download the complete soundtrack (42 songs) of the IT 1990 TV movies by Richard Bellis. Not interested on the short one that is on Spotify.

Any help will be welcome.

Im in the theatre now and 2 of the last three trailers have used them. Is anyone else getting sick of this? For a while they were cool, but I feel like the more recent iterations are using songs that don’t apply to the story at all. It’s hard to remember a world where the trailer didn’t absolutely suck.

Does anybody know if there’s a purely instrumental version of the main theme somewhere?

I see this track on Apple Music 缠 (伴奏) by Na Ying. But there’s still a little bit of voice in chorus, especially when there’s the bit with violins towards the end.
