An Astounding Musical Achievement!
Star Wars is and always will be legend. The idea of good vs. evil will always be entertaining to the human mind, and Star Wars has it all. Action, romance, humor, personal struggles, and wonderful storytelling. But for me, the biggest thing that Star Wars has is music. Music is what makes Star Wars legendary.
John Williams is one of the best and well known composers of all time. He has scored the music to several of the biggest and most iconic films we will ever see. He gave life to Indiana Jones, he brought magic to Harry Potter, pulled emotion from us when Anakin Skywalker turned to the dark side, and made Dinosaurs come to life in a Jurrassic Park.
So why didn't John Williams compose the music to Star Wars: The Clone Wars? Well, I don't know, but in a way I'm glad he didn't. Its always fun and can be exciting to hear something old become new. That is exactly what Kevin Kiner has done with the new music of the Star Wars universe. And I absolutely adore it.
The theme everybody knows by heart is probably the most perfect music we might ever listen to on Earth. It seems like it was not only created, but born, a living creature that breathes and thinks. So, and as expected, the Star Wars theme makes an appearance in The Clone Wars. But not as we've heard it in the past.
With so much pressure pushed on Kevin Kiner to create a wonderful, breathtaking experience that meets all the requirements of John William's music, I believe he has done a superb job. He has taken the original theme and made it his own, adding triumphant violins and sort of a "cool" beat into the mix. But the biggest change of all is the way the notes hit your ears. Kiner has mixed the music up a bit so that they're still the same notes we're used to hearing, just in a different pattern or sort of way. It is trully amazing and adds a refreshing feeling to the entire album.
Speaking of the entire album, you're in for a great surprise. There is alot of electric guitar, like in "Obi Wan to the Rescue". There is sort of a weird, tribal theme that has a fun feeling to it, which is in the Jabba the Hut songs. Over all, the music is very different than all the other Star Wars music we're used to hearing. It has a different feel to it, and that's a good thing because the movie is different as well: its animated.
That doesn't mean the music isn't intense, emotional, or suspenseful!
In the end, my favorite music is the recreation of the main theme, which is heard in the beginning and the end of the soundtrack.
If you're a Star Wars fan, buy this music. You won't be dissapointed and it is fun to hear something you're used to hearing, only in a different way.
If you're not a Star Wars fan, or in this case if you're not into John William's music, I would still recomend it because it IS a totally new take on the Star Wars franchise, and I believe you'll enjoy the new take on the "old" theme.
Kudos to Kevin Kiner for putting a smile on my face.
Different, but great!
I'm a big fan of John Williams, and when I heard this, I knew I would be in for a few surprises. They were great surprises! Although this is different from what Star Wars fans have heard before, there are still traces of the original scores in this music, along with a few new surprises! I love this soundtrack, and reccommend it to other Star Wars fans!
WHOW!
This soundtrack is about to rule over all Star Wars soundtracks! I love the new animated feature, I love the soundtrack! Keep it going Kevin Kiner! Keep it going!
