Movie Tracks

Hey, this was on my mind...I dont care if this thread was done or not... dont comment if so...start it again...anyways I was wonderin what you guys suggest or think is theee best trance tune youve ever heard behind all the tears,fears,screams,or laughter...that happens during a movie....remixes are allowed of course....Mine i would have to start this by showing props to 28 Days Later and the track Brian Eno - An Ending (Leama & Moor Remix) ohhhh man another one just came to my head...that movie Platoon i think it was??? that played Adagio For Strings...

none of the tracks you mentioned are trance since it wasn't the Leama & Moor remix in 28 days later but the soothing ambient original of Brian Eno - An Ending.
The same with The Platoon. It's the original Barbers Adagio For Strings. Not a trance remake of any kind.

Very clever starting up a thread when the original poster doesn't have his own facts straight.

Alright hold on

Guys Guys dont freak out sorry i must of said it in better words....I know that 28 days later didnt have the Leama Rmx and Platoon was original Adagio but thats why I said REMIXES ALLOWED...sorry thats what i meant by it ...now try....ohhh and LMFAO @ washout LOL hahaha must terminate you LOL golden and ibiza - adagio? luvstruck? is that the movie or the track Southside Spinners - Luvstruck WOW!!! i havent heard that track in a while...props to if youve heard it ...especially the Atlantis Remix of it

Requiem For a Dream- Main Theme
Later remixed by Oakenfold for the track Aeternal.

I don't believe trance can really be used effectively in a movie.

Scores are usually used to amplify emotion, grabbing you at first gently and then bringing the emotion up. When I think of a turly great score I think of Hans Zimmer's theme from Pearl Harbor. The gradual increase of the thunderous bass drums, at relatively low bpm mind you, and the build-up of the strings, unbelieveable. While no other genre really attempts to mimmick these build-ups as trance does, what separates say a Hans Zimmer piece from a Tiesto piece, no flamming just an ex., is the live string elements bring the sound down to earth. I believe the live strings are less alienating than synths. While there maybe some scene where a synth may be best, take the cult scene in Eye Wide Shut, you will find that synths and electronic elements are best used not when we want to cry or feel compasion for a character, but when we want to our emotions to be tied to the alienation of the scene. Afterall, technology is alienating. Their are many songs in trance that if made more "organic" would easy make compelling scores. Take for example, Alex Stealthy- As a Child. This trance/prog song could easily be put in for a climax scene. However, unless you are going to make the Matrix IV it most likely would be inappropriate. If you take only the excellent string parts from this song, you wind up with a song now that is no longer alienating to audience members, and can be used in any movie with a powerful climax. Or, Max Graham- Gone. Take away all electronic elements and leave just the pianos, strings, and voice in the breakdown. You are left with a song that would be the perfect, tear-jerking end to a movie about a lost love. I have written entirely too much, but my basic point is: the electronic elements of trance are in the end alienating to a viewer, but if these electronic parts were replaced with live strings, you would have a number of excellent scores.

Faithless - Insomnia in Chasing Amy

The 51st state with samuel l jackson

first there's synaesthesia then a song i dont know :/

'Moby - God Moving Over The Face Of Waters' in the final scene of 'Heat'. Not trance either but fits perfectly for the feel of the scene.

I think you are meaning Warrior - Warrior, which is a Michael Woods production.

Yeah i think i stand with everyone when i say that Warrior is garbage and faithless - insomnia is a gr8 suggestion as for kush...your views on synths vs. strings are similiar to mine but in a more wordy manner....have your paper signed and put on my desk first thing in the morning...
