I love movie music =) all of it. My Favourites at the moment are: James Newton Howard - Batman Begins Richard Gibbs & Bear McCreary - Season 1 & 2 of Battlestar Galactica and my all time favourite movie composer has to be Danny Elfman.
Polluck. Jeff Beal. The Holiday. Hans Zimmer. Gladiator. Hans Zimmer. A Beautiful Mind. James Horner. American Beauty. Thomas Newman.
Cliff Martinez - Solaris OST (best soundtrack imo) He also did the traffic soundtrack which is good Clint mansell - requirem for a dream and Pi OST's (both amazing albums)
even though its been said LORD OF THE RINGS holy shit. Amazing Albums. I paint to it. Also, it doesn't fit here but i always had a fondness of the blues brothers soundtrack...
2nded... Koyaanisqatsi is another good one by Glass. Off the top of my head I also like: Bernard Herrmann John Williams (especially Star Wars) Don Davis Lee Byung-woo
Someone mentioned the Princess Mononoke OST by Joe Hisaishi, I second this. I'll also add Gattaca and The Piano, both OST's by Michael Nyman. Azure
My favorite film score composers include John Williams(Star Wars, E.T., Superman...) and Alan Silvestri(Back To The Future, Predator, Van Helsing...).
WendyCarlos: Clockwork Orange Goblin: Deep Red & Suspiria John Carpenter: Halloween & Escape From New York Myrow and Seagrave: Phantasm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3ieQxm_M2I"]Phantasm Theme Song - YouTube
Jurassic Park theme. American Beauty has some pretty good songs too. Sherlock Holmes soundtrack for both movies are kick ass. Pretty much anything by Danny Elfman lol.
The Good The Bad And The Ugly. My favorite soundtrack for over thirty years. By one of my favorite contemporary composers. Ennio Morricone. I listen to a lot of classical music and the music on this track is still in my top 20 after all of these years.
Blade Runner soundtrack. And Julee Cruise, of Twin Peaks fame. And the rest of the Twin Peaks music by Angelo Badalamenti
