Advertise on podcast: A Score To Settle

Welcome in to the podcast, listeners! My "Listening To" series covering the music of GODZILLA strides forward into part three, entering what is referred to as the Heisei era of the long-lived series. After wading into the ocean at the close of 1975's TERROR OF MECHAGODZILLA, the big screen kaiju took a hiatus, finally returning in the mid-1980's amid a slew of big budget Hollywood blockbusters which were now embellished by advanced FX and rich orchestral scores.    Nostalgia helped return GODZILLA to the big screen for eleven years and seven movies, as Toho Studios and the creative team produced and presented an intricate serialized story across these installments. This Heisei era features four new scores by the legendary Akira Ifukube, returning for the films during the 1990's, as well as scores by newcomers Reijiro Koroku, Koichi Sugiyama and Takayuki Hattori.    Title playtime index: Intro - 00:00 THE RETURN OF GODZILLA (1984) (Reijiro Koroku) - 00:04:06 GODZILLA VS BIOLLANTE (1989) (Koichi Sugiyama) - 00:16:04 GODZILLA VS KING GHIDORAH (1991) (Akira Ifukube) - 00:27:38 GODZILLA AND MOTHRA: THE BATTLE FOR EARTH (1992) (Akira Ifukube) - 00:38:05 GODZILLA VS MECHAGODZILLA II (1993) (Akira Ifukube) - 00:48:31 GODZILLA VS SPACE GODZILLA (1994) (Takayuki Hattori) - 01:02:06 GODZILLA VS DESTROYAH (1995) (Akira Ifukube) - 01:13:31 Wrap up - 01:24:50   Stay safe out there, take care of yourself and each other!    Connect with the podcast on Facebook, Twitter and Bluesky: www.facebook.com/ascoretosettle https://twitter.com/score2settlepod https://bsky.app/profile/score2settlepod.bsky.social   Email the show at [email protected]

Greetings listeners! On the scaly heels of my previous episode, I now present the second entry in this "Listening To... " sub-series, covering the music of GODZILLA, the long-lived monster movie series from Japanese film studio Toho. This franchise currently encompasses 38 movies, spanning over seven decades of cinema history and is considered by Guinness to be the longest running continuous film series.   I first focused on the music of revered composer Akira Ifukube, who scored roughly half the movies during this original era of the GODZILLA series, called the Showa era, and now in this episode I will explore music from the guest composers. This includes Masaru Sato, Richiro Manabe, Kunio Miyauchi and Yuji Koseki, who, respectively, wrote scores and songs for beloved and even controversial classics of the series such as EBIRAH, HORROR OF THE DEEP, GODZILLA VS. HEDORAH and GODZILLA VS. MECHAGODZILLA.   How did each of these composers approach scoring a Godzilla movie - was it in deference to Ifukube’s style or was something tonally far removed presented? You might be surprised to hear the sounds of big band, swing music and surf rock from these guest composers!   Title playtime index: Intro - 00:00 GODZILLA RAIDS AGAIN (aka GIGANTIS, THE FIRE MONSTER) (1955) (Masaru Sato) - 00:03:41 MOTHRA (1961) (Yuji Koseki) - 00:08:00 EBIRAH, HORROR OF THE DEEP (aka GODZILLA VS THE SEA MONSTER) (1966) (Masaru Sato) - 00:10:33 SON OF GODZILLA (1967) (Masaru Sato) - 00:21:27 ALL MONSTERS ATTACK (1969) (Kunio Miyauchi) - 00:31:13 GODZILLA VS HEDORAH (aka GODZILLA VS THE SMOG MONSTER) (1971) (Richiro Manabe) - 00:37:05 GODZILLA VS MEGALON (1973) (Richiro Manabe) - 00:49:05 GODZILLA VS MECHAGODZILLA (1974) (Masaru Sato) - 00:58:54 Wrap up - 01:11:16   Stay safe out there, take care of yourself and each other!    Connect with the podcast on Facebook, Twitter and Bluesky: www.facebook.com/ascoretosettle https://twitter.com/score2settlepod https://bsky.app/profile/score2settlepod.bsky.social   Email the show at [email protected]

Hello and welcome back to the podcast! Starting with this episode, I present another entry in my "Listening To... " sub-series, this time focused on that long running film franchise with a massive pop cultural footprint, GODZILLA!   While it’s a pop culture reference known the world over, GODZILLA is perhaps best understood by one country and culture, that being Japan and its people. But what does GODZILLA music sound like? We might know it when hear it, but where did it begin? The scaly behemoth has been a towering figure of science fiction and monster movie cinema ever since the original movie, GOJIRA, premiered in Japan in 1954, inadvertently beginning what emerged as a popular sub-genre called "kaiju eiga".   During the more than 70 years of big screen adventures, this series has journeyed from apocalyptic, black & white installments, to colorful kid-friendly monster mashes, topical storylines and splashy, big budget epics. Keeping pace with this is a great wealth of musical variety, from a number of talented composers, but the originator of it all is Akira Ifukube, a legend in Japanese film and music circles. It is Ifukube's music for the Showa era that is the focus of this first episode.   Title playtime index: Intro - 00:00 "Modern Monster Movie Music Suite" - 00:05:33 GODZILLA (1954) (Akira Ifukube) - 00:13:23 KING KONG VS GODZILLA (1962) (Akira Ifukube) - 00:20:30 MOTHRA VS GODZILLA (1964) (Akira Ifukube) - 00:32:46 GHIDORAH, THE THREE-HEADED MONSTER (1964) (Akira Ifukube) - 00:36:42 INVASION OF ASTRO-MONSTER (1965) (Akira Ifukube) - 00:40:48 DESTROY ALL MONSTERS (1968) (Akira Ifukube) - 00:47:44 GODZILLA VS GIGAN (1972) (Akira Ifukube) - 00:54:33 TERROR OF MECHAGODZILLA (1975) (Akira Ifukube) - 01:04:30 Wrap up - 01:14:22   Stay safe out there, take care of yourself and each other!    Connect with the podcast on Facebook, Twitter and Bluesky: www.facebook.com/ascoretosettle https://twitter.com/score2settlepod https://bsky.app/profile/score2settlepod.bsky.social   Email the show at [email protected]

Hello and welcome back to the podcast! In this episode, prepare to be transformed as I continue my mini-series entitled “TV Goes To The Movies” and now explore the music for THE TRANSFORMERS franchise. As before, my focus is musically what was or was not carried over from the television episodes of a particular series to its respective theatrical feature, such as the main TV theme or scoring style.   During its near 40 year history, from the original 1984 syndicated cartoon series, to the animated and live action movies, the Japanese-only series and more, music for the THE TRANSFORMERS has been remarkably varied. The vocal and score tracks have often reflected current or trendy musical approaches, leading to elements of lush symphonic strains, synth pop, hard rock and jazzy funk all being heard in various incarnations. Now, hold on to your crankshafts and let's transform and roll out!    Title playtime index: Intro - 00:00:00 THE TRANSFORMERS (US, 1984 cartoon series, theme by Anne Bryant & Ford Kinder, score by Johnny Douglas and Robert J. Walsh) - 00:06:17 TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE (US, 1986 animated theatrical film, songs by Stan Bush, Lion & Spectre General, score by Vince DiCola) - 00:16:45 THE TRANSFORMERS: HEADMASTERS (1987), TRANSFORMERS: SUPER-GOD MASTERFORCE (1988) and TRANSFORMERS: VICTORY (1989) (Japan, songs & score by Ishida Katsunori, Toshiya Igarashi, Michiaki Watanabe) - 00:31:45 TRANSFORMERS (2007), TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON (2011), BUMBLEBEE (2018) and TRANSFORMERS: RISE OF THE BEASTS (2023) (US, live action theatrical films, song "What I've Done" by Linkin Park, scores by Steve Jablonsky, Dario Marianelli and Jongnic Bontemps) - 00:38:18*   *This segment also contains an excerpt from BATMAN BEGINS (2005), composed by Hans Zimmer and James Newtown Howard   Additional tracks heard but not referenced -  "Calling You", Theme from TRANSFORMERS: SUPERLINK (Japan, 2004), by Takayoshi Tanimoto "Time Limit", from TRANSFORMERS: LEGEND OF THE MICRONS (Japan, 2002), composed by Hayato Matsuo   Stay safe out there, take care of yourself and each other!    Connect with the podcast on Facebook and Twitter: www.facebook.com/ascoretosettle https://twitter.com/score2settlepod   Email the show at [email protected]

Welcome all to the podcast! In this episode, I continue my mini-series entitled "TV Goes To The Movies", a topic in which I intend to explore TV shows that migrated over to the big screen. As expected, my focus is musically what was or was not carried over from the television episodes of a particular series to its respective theatrical feature, such as the main TV theme.   This time I open Channel D to examine "The Man From U.N.C.L.E." - a popular spy series which aired on NBC from 1964-1968. Its musical template was initially set by legendary composer Jerry Goldsmith, while still early in his career, and subsequently experienced many unexpected tonal shifts. Afterwards I discuss the eight "Man From U.N.C.L.E." "movies", each built from 2-part TV episodes and primarily released theatrically internationally, and lastly wrap up with the 2015 feature film, directed by Guy Ritchie, starring Henry Cavill and Armie Hammer, with music composed by Daniel Pemberton.   Title playtime index: Intro - 00:00:00 THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. Theme (Concert Version) (Jerry Goldsmith) - 00:03:59 THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E.

Hello everyone! With this episode of the podcast, I begin a new sub-series entitled "TV Goes To The Movies", a topic intended to explore TV shows which migrated over to the big screen.   In mapping out a potential plan for the podcast this year, I felt motivated to explore this scenario in terms of musically what was and was not carried over from the television episodes of a particular series to its respective theatrical feature. For example, was the TV series' main theme referenced? Was the style of episodic scoring repeated? Was the series composer, or composers, hired on for the cinematic adventures? My plan is to feature music released officially on album from a selected TV series, followed by the films and see if we can identify recurring attributes.   The initial episode in this sub-series is fraught with danger and intrigue... that being MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE!   Title playtime index: MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE (TV, 1966-1973) (Lalo Schifrin, et al) - 00:00:00 MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE (TV, 1988-1990) (Lalo Schifrin, Ron Jones) - 00:36:28 MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE (Film, 1996) (Danny Elfman) - 00:44:15 M:I 2 (aka MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE 2) (Film, 2000) (Hans Zimmer) - 00:55:37 MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE 3 (Film, 2006) (Michael Giacchino) - 01:05:47 MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - GHOST PROTOCOL (Film, 2011) (Michael Giacchino) - 01:10:03 MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - ROGUE NATION (Film, 2015) (Joe Kramer) - 01:22:27 MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - FALLOUT (Film, 2018) (Lorne Balfe) - 1:34:22   Stay safe out there, take care of yourself and each other!    Connect with the podcast on Facebook and Twitter: www.facebook.com/ascoretosettle https://twitter.com/score2settlepod     Email the show at [email protected]

Happy New Year to all listeners out there and welcome to the first new episode of 2023! In this inaugural episode of the new year, I am accompanied by popular soundtrack album producer and editor Neil S. Bulk, in what has become a perennial, (hopefully) entertaining and often “inside baseball” type of discussion. Neil and I recap his standout projects from the prior year, 2022, for the venerable soundtrack record labels La La Land Records, Quartet Records and Varese Sarabande. As always, I appreciate when Neil can spend time to relay the details and experiences on these albums!   Below are the films and composers represented here, with time index for helpful reference:   FIRST BLOOD (1982), RAMBO: FIRST BLOOD PART II (1985), RAMBO III (1988) (Jerry Goldsmith) - 00:00:00 MARY, QUEEN OF SCOTS (1971) (John Barry) - 00:15:39 CHAPLIN (1992) (John Barry) - 00:19:10 DR SEUSS' HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS (2000) (James Horner) - 00:26:09 TOMORROW NEVER DIES (1997) (David Arnold) - 00:33:43 THE GODFATHER (1972) (Nino Rota) - 00:44:54 PRESUMED INNOCENT (1990) (John Williams) - 00:55:00 DEATH BECOMES HER (1992) (Alan Silvestri) - 1:01:02 L.A.

Welcome back to the show! In an effort to wrap up 2022, I’m concluding with an episode of the Now Playing sub-series of the podcast. This is following on from the previous Now Playing installment (episode 47) in which I primarily covered the first half of the year, including THE BATMAN and TOP GUN: MAVERICK, with additional notable highlights from late 2021. In this episode, enjoy music from John Williams, Lorne Balfe, Junkie XL, Alexandre Desplat among others! Below are the films and composers represented here, with time index for helpful reference:   Title playtime index: THOR: LOVE AND THUNDER (Michael Giacchino & Nami Melumad) - 00:00:00 NOPE (Michael Abels) - 00:10:29 THREE THOUSAND YEARS OF LONGING (Tom Holkenborg aka Junkie XL) - 00:18:53 THE WOMAN KING (Terence Blanchard) - 00:27:18 THE LOST KING (Alexandre Desplat) - 00:34:41 BLACK ADAM (Lorne Balfe) - 00:42:30 BLACK PANTHER: WAKANDA FOREVER (Ludwig Göransson) - 00:53:07 THE FABELMANS (John Williams) - 1:03:57   Stay safe out there, take care of yourself and each other!    Connect with the podcast on Facebook and Twitter: www.facebook.com/ascoretosettle https://twitter.com/score2settlepod   Email the show at [email protected]

Welcome back to the podcast! In this episode, I present and examine the music composed for the PREDATOR film franchise, from the 1987 original through to the latest installment, PREY, released via the streaming service Hulu in August 2022. My goal is to identify the themes, motifs, instrumentation and approach applied by composer Alan Silvestri (BACK TO THE FUTURE, MOUSE HUNT, THE AVENGERS) to PREDATOR (1987) & PREDATOR 2 (1990) and how this symphonic model was subsequently interpreted in the sequels and spin-offs (or not). Later, PREY eschews much of the previous musical language and charts new sonic territory, with a subtle nod to Silvestri. Additional composers represented in this pulse-pounding episode include John Debney, Brian Tyler, Henry Jackman, Harald Kloser and Sarah Schachner.    Title playtime index: PREDATOR - 00:00:00 PREDATOR 2 - 00:26:25 ALIEN VS PREDATOR - 00:37:10 ALIENS VS PREDATOR: REQUIEM - 00:44:36 PREDATORS - 00:51:52 THE PREDATOR - 1:04:48 PREY - 1:19:23   Stay safe out there, take care of yourself and each other!    Connect with the podcast on Facebook and Twitter: www.facebook.com/ascoretosettle https://twitter.com/score2settlepod   Email the show at [email protected]

Hello again and welcome back to the podcast! In this somewhat "super-sized" installment of my multi-part trek through the music of Science Fiction cinema, I attempt to close out the decade of the 1980's. The previous installment in this series focused on titles from the years 1980-82. Here, I cover the remaining years of the decade with examples of the competing and sometimes collaborative film music trends - pop & electronic and orchestral.    The 80’s were a peak time of musical surprises, somewhat akin to the 1960’s when we heard a mix of traditional orchestral scores, jazz, pop & rock-based colors as well as avant garde music derived from concert techniques. Following its revival, the large scale orchestral approach continued reigning over much of cinematic Science Fiction, now bolstered by electronic and choral elements. Parallel to this were the experiments in synth and pop styles, connecting the genre to present day (for the time) musical trends. To help identify these unique sonic qualities, I'll sample music from TERMINATOR (Brad Fiedel), 2010 (David Shire), ENEMY MINE (Maurice Jarre), KRULL (James Horner), SPACEHUNTER: ADVENTURES IN THE FORBIDDEN ZONE (Elmer Bernstein) and THE ABYSS (Alan Silvestri), amid more!   *Correction - During this episode, I mistakenly attributed the theme song for the TV series "Cheers" to composer Craig Safan. In fact, while Safan provided the series bumpers and underscore cues, the theme was composed by Gary Portnoy and Judy Hart Angelo.   Stay safe out there, take care of yourself and each other!    Connect with the podcast on Facebook and Twitter: www.facebook.com/ascoretosettle https://twitter.com/score2settlepod   Email the show at [email protected]
