Top 10 Favorite Music Composers

Music Composers are those who we listen to if it's their soundtracks that is awesome emotional sweet or what the music is like. But lately, i have been hearing their music and thought of why not enjoy talking about their work. 

I have gone through the ones that i listen to and look on the composers and to be honest i really like their work from the electro music film scores among other things so i decided to write this one down and talk of the composers and their work so why not. 


10. Troels Folmann 


Let's start things off with Troels Folmann now if there's fans of the tomb rider series that know of his work you'll be wondering why is he on the list well i saw his name on Transformers Fall of Cybertron that he done i'm not gonna lied i have to enjoy his work on Transformers Fall of Cybertron cause the music itself felt like more tense moments in there approaching threats or some loud beat musics into it. The ones he did for the main theme of the game was more mature and hearing it on the intro of FOC was very cinematic style that. One of my favorite tracks of FOC is Defend ark Bee on roll conflict with the ark parts 1 and 2 the main theme and theme where metroplex sarafice himself which really hit hard even hearing it time and again it makes you feel how gutwrenching that one was.  


9. Randy Newman 


Randy Newman has always been part of my childhood i like his work on Toy Story that he has done through 1-3 such as You got a friend in me that has been memorable from us who heard of it on the opening of Toy Story he has done. The moving van has been my favorite along with tracks in the films that i can go on about it but they give out a upbeat joy and sometimes tearful ones that i'm sure we can get to like toy story 3. 


8. Joseph Trapanese 


Joseph Trapanese is one of those composers who i often forgot now he has work on the score for Iron Man 3 Trailer music Something to fight for, he has work with other composers too which was on Tron Legacy with Composed with Daft Punk and First collaboration with Kosinski. He has done Tron Uprising too my favorite work. 

Beck's Theme 

Paige's theme 

Dyson drops in 

Scars Suite 

Lightcycle Battle Remix 

Lux's Sacrifice 

Tesler


I have to like scares suite it really sets up the feeling of action that was really playing out in part 2 with Tron against dyson before coming to his sense in cyrus and the track really work well just check it out.


7. Wendy Carlos 


Wendy Carlos is no stranger of mind cause she has done interesting music that were electronic music that she has done the works of a clockwork orange tron and the shining. One of my favorite tracks from Wendy Carlos isthe opening of the shining that gives out a march like theme where the movie begins with Jack driving his volkswagen vehicle to the hotel and you can't help but hear the music playing and the sounds of the scream from above is heard like if you're being followed. She has work on a Clockwork orange which i know quite a few which is the the march of queen mary a thieves night Symphony No. 9 (Beethoven) and there is ode to joy that is heard in the record store that was available before being taken but it is on vinemo and maybe on the soundtrack i'm not sure. 

Then Comes Tron which i can't help but remember her work of the film one of the soundtracks that i really have to like is Tron Scherzo love theme ending theme and Tron theme that i recall of listening when i was 13 years old and i admire her work and couldn't help but enjoy it. 


6. John Debney 


I have spoken of John Debney he has done before on Jimmy Neutron and from what i can tell is the only one i might have miss out but ah well. The soundtrack itself has more of being sci-fic like that the movie has play through and has worked on beautifully made cool tracks in the movie like before the meteor shower where the kids are in space and look at the galaxy Jimmy missing his parents reunion too that i can't help but find those to be the best of John's work you can find it about on my JN 20th anniversary post. 


5. Hans Zimmer 


Hey remember Time and the scores from Inception that Hans Zimmer work before of course you have, plus who can't forget about his work on Inception and Blade Runner that he has rescore and rework on 2049 he even made tears in the rain score that is so heavily made but beautifully score as it captures the feelings of the classic not just that in general but sea wall is one my favorites too in 2049 check it out if you can, he has done work Christopher Nolan films which was the dark knight trilogy that are my favorites. 


4. John Williams 


We all know John Williams work on Jaws Superman ET Star Wars Jurassic Park Indiana Jones among other works he has done but personally, i really do like his work on Star Wars Jurassic Park and Superman that i remember hearing while listening to the soundtrack themselves. Obsivoloy it really is hard for me to name all of his work from the films that he has work that have become very ironic to us to hear feel free to check them out. 


3. Daft Punk 


We all like that music from Daft Punk very much but who can't forget about Tron Legacy i have mention them before but i'll get right on it. Which is Son of Flynn Derzerred Grid Arrival Solar Sunset Disc Wars Rinzler Adrigo for Tron Flynn Safehouse and Clu that i have listen to and they are awesome pack hearing check them out if you can across youtube or download them if you can.

I listen to his work a-lot they are available to be download and can listen to them on Youtube. And i just find the work he has done to be pretty much memorable and really ironic when listening to the paris or the fight music. 

1. Danny Elfman 


I mean who can't forget about Danny Elfman music that we heard mostly on Tim Burton and Sam Raimi Danny has done a number of interesting music that were in the films like who can't forget the ironic theme of batman 89 which they are more of a gothic style and really works out the music of Spider-Man 1-2 Like the opening song love theme for MJ and Peter Parker Rooftops New Powers Final ConfrontationGreen Goblin and final swing music check it out online. 


At last that's all of the music composers that i have choosen so oh also i did mention of those who never made it so here goes but here are those who i didn't get to mention but i really like their work too. 


Gustav Holst 

There isn't much to say about Gustav but probably the only track that i really like was Mars that really is famous on the internet. 


Thomas Newman 

Much like his brother Randy Newman Thomas is also known for the work on Finding Nemo that i have recall listening too he might have other compose other music tracks. Haiku Gill Fish are friends not food field trip and theme of the movie are pretty cool to hear. 


Jesper Kyd 

Most know for his work on Assassin's Creed but i have to like Ezio's Family Brotherhood Escapes Rome Home In Florence Modern Rome Apple Chamber Streets in Venice and escape are among my favorites of listening too so i have to enjoy Assassin's Creed Soundtrack from the ezio trilogy. 


James Newton Howard 

James Newton Howard has work on Dinosaur that i will talk hopefully he done works with Hans Zimmer over the dark knight trilogy so at least he gets the credits for it and a lot of work he has done and i forgot to look on too. 


Vangelis 

Vangelis has a great soundtrack on Blade Runner and i haven't talk about him just yet so oh well.maybe one day i will.

I got Mail.

I wish i got this over Christmas break but i got myself Scrubs and Tf Animated Bumblebee a childhood toy that I've always wanted as a kid. I order these two on ebay and was not hard to find so here goes. 


Came into two boxes and it was a us postal office delivery thanks new jersey. 


I open the boxes and came in a bubble rack covering scrubs dvd and had that logo of a 80s console no idea what it was.
Transformers Animated Bumblebee box was like anything else during the promotion of the show and i remember what the box was and here it, oh how the toy box was back in those days. 





I check the back of the box and you can see other figures which is Prowl Cybertron Optimus Prime and Lockdown that i use to have before. I never get to have prowl but maybe i will one day. 



Scrubs came into seven seasons that i was glad to get and wanted to watch the show it is on disneyplus but i just wanted to watch it on dvd and look forward to watch them. 


As for Bumblebee in TFA i couldn't help but really like the toy that i remember as a kid that i use to have but broke it and even had trouble transforming him back to car mode and i was use to transforming the characters into car mode or not. 


Here's him with his two boosters that he use in the show. It does drive well a bit and i couldn't help but really like the car. 




And here he is in his robot mode and i was able to transformed him back to car mode and i have the instructions with me just in case and i guess now then i have him in my bumblebee collection it's pretty cool to have tf animated around a great show.

James Gunn's New DCE

James Gunn annouced his new dc universe films and did talk of how the dceu was a mess under Synder's Leadership and cause the films to get made but rushed and to keep up with Marvel so what better ways to think of his new take on the Dc films and since the last films of the old dceu are the flash shazam 2 and aquaman 2 will be release later this year and Joker 2 and Matt Reeve Batman film won't be affect by gunn's new universe however his new dc films will be different with one of them being Superman brave and the bold. 

He mention of Swamp Thing The Authority Lanterns Tv Show and Peter Safran will be involved too so I have no idea if i could go see his new film universe other than supporting the creep Ezra Miller and throw shade at Henry Gunn well what do you think. I'll talk about his comments on the old DCEU. 


Concerns of The Animation Industry

Out of most studios lately i've been concern of the animation industry which was the talks of Puss in Boots the last wish and Hbo disastrous Velma series has been a disaster and people have said that Velma has gotten everything wrong of animation and lately other movies have been a flop and disasters like Lightyear and pretty much Disney and Pixar movies that have become box office bombs expect for Dreamworks so that has been working out fine. But i been having a lot of thoughts on animation studios if it's the animators/crew abusing their power and the work of scenes. The concerns is how they are presenting on screen before crunch kicks in to over work their staff or scenes they have work on and causing them to go overbudget. 

I don't know what's going on behind close doors of the animation industry if it's claims of abuse or not treating their staff respect kind of reminds me Nickelodeon with Ren and Stimpy and their creator John K who was difficult work with and abuse his staff of overbudget his staff which was explained in the Documentary Happy Happy Joy Joy that you check out.

Rise of the Beasts Movie Mirage


So we got to see Superbowl tv spots of the transformers and the flash but i'm not gonna dive into that and saw the one for Transformers Rise of the beasts and lately mirage looks improve but more of Jazz's take since we don't know why and mirage looks alright but i came across this analysis part and mirage doesn't look like the one from the G1 which i can agree and doesn't reassemble it now look i'm not trying to attack the crew behind it and i would see the character could get some improvements before the movie came out i know i know the vf crew who work on the cgi are working on the character and since most of the characters from the G1 show could look like the same just before the movie comes out and i hope that the movie improve. This is from Artiststan.

Are Shippers Toxic?

(Warning this post is not something that i wish to talk about but perhaps a subject that needs to be talk about) 

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Rwby the potential its a internet legend. Rwby was an American Anime-Like style so inspired and took inspirations from Fantasy and Disney, It told such great stories and Characters and its animation very similar and different than japanese anime, right after the creator passed away then came upon the corrupted and greedy executives from the creator's friends who taught them everything and embrace the toxicity of the bees.

Alright enough of that writing. Let's talk about the toxicity of the shippers now i don't mean all of them but i thought of something else very toxic very forced and problematic too. I'm Talking about ones like Olicity and Bumbleby or maybe other shippers that can be very notorious and uncomfortable if not don't understand the age differences or think of the character's sexuality where the ridiculous speculation from Tumblr and Twitter would come up these topics. I mean i'm not saying that these users on twitter are toxic i meant the ones who shipped characters disregarding the creator's vision of the story and ignoring criticism of the show and there comes the mob getting so mad and makes lies but if you look at the tweets from these individuals who push it too far only to celebrated and get call out for their actions on these shippers this is why that toxicity in Rwby can be a problem now that i have talk about it and did like Rwby back when i was entering High School but i would grow out of it around 2016 and did come back and see it around 2017 of Summer as time would move by and the fandom start to become very toxic like Steven Universe Etc. Can be toxic and glad i never got into that show. And Yang throughout the story wanted to be close with Blake since what Volume 1 or 2 and didn't even call her out for Blake running away and her cowardly acts to her team and friends always running away from her mistakes and doesn't even to justified it, but couldn't because of the shippers and not wanting to anger them part of the LGBTQ Representation that RT has been forcing to and this is nothing against it but some people don't want to understand facts or reality. 

Olicity however i have to think is toxic cause of pushing for Oliver and Felicity to be together after the writers even Marc Guggenheim push it in and didn't follow in the source material of Green Arrow and Since it has done nothing but ruined the show after it ended and didn't even bother to killed it off around Seasons 5-7 and 8 i guess they didn't care about it only care for the two pairing not the story and character yet it became the show's problem as Season 4 became about Felicity and her friends talk about an attempt to spin off show if you ask me. Olier didn't even change his persona and Felicity however should have move on and left the team but because of the chemistry and wanting her to be around and that she's a hacker of the team they couldn't even bother to make a new one. Plus much like Rwby screenshots of Olicity shippers on Twitter who wanted Stephen to marry Emily bett Rickards that's mess up and down right creepy since is already marry to Cassandra Jean don't force a actor to marry emily weirdos. Not only that i bet that whenever Olicity fans want to it to be canon it becomes very toxic on Tumblr plus since the show fail it's comic book readers the show know that there was nothing to do to ever fixed it or change it. Oh also John Diggle actor is part of shipping so what a sell out. 

I'm gonna think that since some shipping characters into pairs is not all toxic but some shipping of the two like of LGBTQ not wanting to discrediting it and not call out Bumbleby supporters who almost threat Miles and Kerry to make it canon after giving them death threats and got away with it and since the subject of how rt definite are queerbaiting the shippers which makes it looks like they are not allies with them. Olicity similar and get away with it. 

But here's my message to the shippers who want to ship two girls together shipping oscar with Rwby who is 14 and Ruby only what 16 and 17 years old and Oliver with Felicity disregarding Oliver and Laurel and what would have made them to be couple from the comics but changes from the team is this message, You're trash scum disapprove your shipping but you deserve to be call out for toxicity and getting so mad at people who speak the truth and pushing in a ship disrespectful for a creator's show only to agree with the writer's political beliefs than you and i are not agreeing with certain things and get away with it i wish someone can call you all out or how about how Rooster teeth just want to weaponize and use the bees as a bait and sure i know what will happen next or maybe not who knows i'm not gonna try to be right or wrong but after the drama back in October of last year just exposed Rooster Teeth and Miles and Kerry worthless and bad as writers maybe back in university you should have thought of your chances. Yet in the wake of Kdin's document of coming forward and exposing Rooster Teeth and their poor working conditions along with transphobic homophobic and racism that the company has hide from some time now but i already cover previous from last year feel free to check it out but hey i guess rooster teeth has a fine history of queerbaits using and manipulate people. 

Happy Valentine's day
