It's a great soundtrack[0] that has a | number of jazz tracks contributed by Jon Batiste as well as | Reznor and Ross's synth pieces. Fair warning, it's a very | different vibe compared to Social Network, much more relaxed and | atmospheric. I particularly recommend the track Falling, which | plays during the opening credits sequence after the main | character dies (if you haven't watched Soul, this isn't the | spoiler you think it is lol. You should watch Soul, it's great) | | [0] | https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_keoZPbaxTzFnlAJVB2... | phillco wrote: | Atticus also scored the soundtrack behind the television series | _Dr Death_, and it was similarly excellent. | Void_ wrote: | Still the best coding soundtrack. | | Need more like this. | farnsworth wrote: | Yep. As soon as I hear the opening melody in Hand Covers | Bruise, I know I'm about to start typing and not look up for 3 | hours. | sixstringtheory wrote: | Yeah it's good for that. The Ghosts albums and Quake soundtrack | are more works in that style from them. | tbossanova wrote: | Ha, I tried coding to Nine Inch Nails but I got too angry at | compiler errors! | ffrmmusic wrote: | For fellow TR-AR fans, I would love your opinion on a piece I | made in the style of Social Network: | https://soundcloud.com/functionform/after-all-the-cake-and-w.... | It was made for a for-fun contest where you use one plugin to | produce all the sounds. This concludes my self-promotion! | AlexSW wrote: | Just to add another data point, I really like it! I'm an | enormous fan of the Social Network's soundtrack and I feel you | really captured the feel and sound that some of its pieces give | (obviously particularly the main theme). | | Would love to add it to some of my Spotify playlists if you're | on there (but I very much understand if you're only on | Soundcloud). | computershit wrote: | I dig it. Nice work. | ggerules wrote: | I really liked this. Made my day. Very nice job with layering! | tunnuz wrote: | It's great! Thanks for sharing. | fritztastic wrote: | Not a musician, so I don't really have the proper vocabulary, | but- as a fan of industrial specifically (and electronic music | in general) and as a writer, this has a really nice balance of | texture and atmosphere. I could see it being incorporated with | visuals and other elements of design/sensory experience for a | cerebrally lush creative project. It was nice to listen to, | thanks for sharing. | mr337 wrote: | Wow, this is fantastic! | tiku wrote: | Nice! | mrcwinn wrote: | Gosh, this is so not at all my world. I'm not very good with | these tools. But as a fan of the original work, wow, this is just | wonderful. I really enjoyed spending time with this post. ___________________________________________________________________ (page generated 2022-10-17 23:00 UTC)
