| | Starman Soundtrack CD (1 Customer Review)
Rock & roll session guru Jack Nitzsche composed precious few film scores during the course of his long and winding career, but each and every one demands attention: while 1984's Starman represents his lone foray into the science fiction realm, it boasts a complexity and humanity quite unique within the genre, underscoring the surprising emotional heft of director John Carpenter's vision. Working primarily with electronic instrumentation and effects, Nitzsche's thoughtful melodies and arrangements capture the wonder and mystery of life beyond the stars as well as deeply human emotions like love and loss. The music is by turns epic and intimate, bleak yet redemptive. ~ Jason Ankeny

Marrying the studied grooves of thoughtful rockers Tangerine Dream with the intelligent pacing of film director Michael Mann (HEAT) worked wonders on the 1981 movie THIEF, and the soundtrack is included here in its entirety.
Tangerine Dream scored director Michael Mann's film debut, Thief (released as "Violent Streets" outside of the U.S. market), adding their patented pulses, blips and whooshes to the film's highly stylized visual scenes. While TD's electronic music is a natural fit for soundtracks, it doesn't bring out the best in the band; for the most part, this soundtrack contains swatches of a larger canvas, building up a small head of steam in the span of four or five minutes but not raising the musical discussion above the level of mere mechanical chitchat. Most of the songs follow a set pattern, with Chris Franke slurring his sequencers under a thin fog of synthesizers, topped by a piercing and pithy melody. An engaging melody on "Beach Theme" makes it one of the album's better tracks, while "Trap Feeling" has a delicacy that ...

MUSIC EXPRESS... what the mind thinks the heart feels but the mouth rarely ever speaks Roberta TaggartWhile like most children raised in my era I attended church and sang on the choir but my love and appreciation for music did not arrive from church. It was developed at the early age of five when I lived in the Richard Allen Projects of North Philly. My idols had long ago been established as the sweet faceless voices of the project winos that got together harmonizing and singing beneath my open bedroom window. It was the silky sweetness of their street harmony that floated flawlessly upon the warm summer breezes into my room into the wee hours of the nights that mesmarized my young impressionable mind and often lala-byed me into a peaceful sleep. It was the impact of their beautifully blended voices that made me want to some day sing exactly like them. And while I truly enjoyed every note that they ever sung it was always the tenor voice that demanded my undivided attention and stirred the very passion of my soul. At the age of seven my mother bought my first record player and it was on that record player that I listened to the sweet tenor voices of Eddie Kendricks of the Temptations, Smokey Robinson of the Miracles, William Hart of the ...
