universal music

 

     Movies always have iconic scenes that we recognized from Here's johnny, Titanic's final sunset, Pulp Fiction Interrogation scene, However I always wonder what about music. as much as I enjoy watching movies and series but one thing that always stood out to me was the music or should I say the soundtrack with the background that blends in the scene. one prime example Composer John Willimans score from Jaws

 

                       

With just a couple seconds when the score started you intuitively know this soundtrack imminently another score by the same composer from another infamous franchises Harry Potter and Star Wars both themes right of the first couple of seconds it gives that nostalgia feeling   

  

 

John Williams and Alan Silvestri music will go down in the history books, there are others talented composers that reach both icon level score. Currently, one movie score will be imbedded in my mind.  

Let us rewind back in the year 2013 when the rebooted Superman movie was released called Man of Steel directed by Zack Snyder and music composed by Hans Zimmer who was task in creating another superman theme which is tough to surpass the superman theme back in 1978 also who was composed by John Williams. Everyone is familiar with this iconic theme where it is more positive and uplifting like the boy scout like they wanted to give superman. Having said that this new theme would be on par with that level of greatness  

 

 

 

 “Flight” was the name score for the new superman theme composed by Hans Zimmer. While you watch or listen to the score you can tell they have tried something new, a new tone for this superman story. Having played the score over and over even till this day mean they have outdone themselves the score was more Heroic and Epic as if you can feel with each beat of the drums that they used in the score which to me stood out the sequence with different used of intruments was so well put together it is on one the best theme created in my opinion. The movie's entire album was well put together. If you have the time and listen to it, it is really refreshing to take to the story.
