MONSTER PARTY HAS A SONG IN ITS HEART.  NOW WE'LL NEVER GET IT BACK IN ITS JAR! JAMES GONIS, SHAWN SHERIDAN, LARRY STROTHE, and MATT WEINHOLD, get their toes a tappin' for this monstrous music festival of an episode. Follow the bouncing ball as we present… SOUNDTRACKS: THE SONGS!!! Soundtracks are usually remembered for the emotion-evoking melodies that gracefully punctuate the moments of a film. There are many masters of this remarkable craft: Jerry Goldsmith, John Williams, Tangerine Dream, Vangelis, John Barry, Lalo Schifrin, Goblin, John Carpenter, Bernard Herrmann, and countless others that only James Gonis could remember. But occasionally, plopped in the middle of all this symphonic pageantry, is an actual song with lyrics that makes us wish for a Karaoke bar strictly for nerds. Get ready for a sinister sing-a-long as we chart the hits from campy sci-fi favorites like The Blob and The Green Slime, bawdy beach films, 70's and 80's horror classics, genre TV shows, classic kaiju films, the world of James Bond, Star Trek and Star Wars, an odd sampling of Jerry Lewis films, and sooooo much more! Helping us DJ this shindig of shocks is a friend of the show, who was our last in-studio guest before COVID 19 screwed everything up. He's a soundtrack journalist, editor, genre columnist, podcaster, and supervises soundtrack temp tracks for many films. He's also a really great actor! Please welcome back… DANIEL SCHWEIGER!

On February 8, 2022, composer John Williams turns 90 years old. To honour one of the greatest film composers of all time THE CINEMATIC SOUND RADIO PODCAST is proud to present a mammoth six-part podcast series dedicated to the five-time Academy Award winner. You might actually be familiar with this series already. I produced a similar series back in 2012 to celebrate Williams' 80th birthday. While that show was successful, I felt that it could be approved upon and updated.  So, I've used John Williams' birthday as an excuse to completely revamp the series by re-editing the scripts, re-recording all the dialogue and completely re-editing the shows. In addition, I will be producing a brand new sixth part to cover the years 2013-2021, which will launch on John Williams birthday, February 8, 2022.  A lot of effort and time went into producing this new version of the series and I hope you enjoy the results. In part one of this special, we will be presenting an overview of "Johnny" Williams' work spanning 1961-1969 including such television shows as CHECKMATE, LOST IN SPACE, THE TIME TUNNEL, LAND OF THE GIANTS and THE GHOSTBREAKER. We will also be presenting music from some of Williams' earliest film work including DIAMOND HEAD, HOW TO STEAL A MILLION, NONE BUT THE BRAVE, HEIDI, GOODBYE MR. CHIPS, THE REIVERS and much more.

 Come with us on this episode as we ponder...what would it be like to be the last human being on Earth? How would a person cope with the loneliness, the despair? We look at a trio of films all based on a story built around this concept, Richard Matheson's classic 1954 novel, I Am Legend. Matheson's story took the classic vampire legend and gave it a modern, pseudo-scientific twist, with the vampires created by a bacterial plague, leaving one man,  immune, struggling to survive.After Bob provides some background on the novel, we dive into the first film adaptation, 1964's Last Man on Earth, starring Vincent Price. Matheson wrote the first draft of the screenplay but eventually withdrew his name from it after a number of other writers came in later and altered it. However, it is still the most faithful version to the book. It's certainly the one that retains the horror aspects the most. The black and white film gives it a ton of atmosphere, and Price provides a strong performance as the deeply depressed Robert Morgan (not Neville, as he was named in the book and the other two films). Having Morgan's former neighbors, now turned into pseudo vampires/zombies stand outside his house at night groaning, "Morgan!" is pretty chilling. By 1971, the concept turns into an action/sci fi vehicle for Charlton Heston, called The Omega Man. This version differs markedly from the original Matheson story. Heston plays Colonel Robert Neville, MD, a military man and doctor, who was working on a vaccine to a biowarfare agent unleashed in a war between China and the USSR. Unfortunately, Neville is the only one to receive the experimental vaccine before most of the world succumbs to the disease. The survivors are mutated into strange albinos who can't stand daylight, and develop a science-hating cult (The Family) led by a former newscaster, played by Anthony Zerbe. During the day, Neville goes around killing The Family where he can find them, and taking whatever food, clothes, cars, etc., he wants. This film features a love interest -Rosalind Cash as Lisa - and is notable for the obvious Christ analogy at the end of the film. It's a big ball of cheese, but entertaining.The property was moved around Hollywood for a while, with Ridley Scott and Arnold Schwarzenegger attached for a length of time. But the third version was released in 2007, titled I Am Legend, starring Will Smith. This film took many of the ideas of the book, but followed Omega Man's action packed  style. Once again, Smith's character is both a military man and a doctor, Lieutenant Colonel Robert Neville, an Army virologist. He is the only survivor of a plague that has wiped out mankind, with the few survivors turned into wild cannibalistic mutants who can only come out at night. Neville, with his dog Sam as his only companion, hunts the mutants during the day, sometimes capturing them to experiment on them, still searching for a cure. The Planet 8 crew all agrees that we had a hard time sticking with this film once the CGI creatures appeared - it's a shame such bad CGI basically ruined this film.Of course we will compare and contrast the movies, discuss what elements they have in common, how they differ, and what we thought worked best. It's fascinating to have three films, from different decades, all working from the same source material. Each is a product of its time. And what would a new adaptation look like?For our Sensor Sweep, fittingly, Karen shares her soundtrack CD for the Omega Man -it's Omega Man 2.0 Unlimited from Film Score Monthly. This version has a whopping 18 tracks, for 64 minutes of amazing music from Ron Grainer. It's a fantastic, memorable 70s score. Put it on the next time you're cruising around Los Angeles!That's it for us this time. Be sure to share your thoughts with us about the many versions of I Am Legend.Twitter: https://twitter.com/Planet8CastFacebook: www.Facebook.com/Planet8PodcastMoooor - gan!!

He’s written several books on Sci-Fi related topics including The Music of Star Trek, The Art of Star Trek: The Kelvin Timeline, The World of Orville & of course THE FANTASY WORLDS OF IRWIN ALLEN; the deluxe 600+ page limited edition coffee table book which takes readers on a visual journey through the mind and career of legendary producer Irwin Allen. Notably for us, Jeff along with his colleague Neil Bulk was Album Producer on the beautiful LOST in SPACE 50th Anniversary Soundtrack Collection, released in 2015. In addition, in 2018 he co-produced again with Neil Bulk, a 4-disc LOTG 50th Anniversary Soundtrack collection. Now his latest project; which he teased for us last time; the definitive 4-disc Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea; Original Television Soundtrack Collection which was recently released in early summer 2020. JEFF’S BIO: Mr. Bond is originally from Ohio & graduated from Bowling Green State University with a degree in Creative Writing after which he pursued his career as a movie magazine reporter. Jeff’s knowledge of film & TV music scores & their creators dates back to the 1990’s when he served as senior editor for Film Score Monthly.

As you know, when we got together to record, Jeff was extremely generous with his time & covered a lot of material. Which is why I decided to split our conversation into TWO Special Calling Alpha Control interviews. In part one of our conversation, we spoke with Jeff about his beautiful new book on the Art & Visual Effects of ST-TMP. In this episode, we’ll speak with Jeff about this latest Auditory Adventure into the Fantasy Worlds of Irwin Allen & take a ‘crash dive course’ into the composers & some of the notable original music cues & themes they scored throughout the four season run of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. as well as some of his fascinating upcoming projects.

On today's episode of THE FLAGSHIP SHOW, we resurrect a themed show that we started producing back in the early 2000s when this very record label was established.  La La Land Records has been around since 2002 and since then we’ve produced dozens of shows dedicated exclusively to the label. We’ve also had partnerships with other labels including FILM SCORE MONTHLY, VARESE SARABANDE, KRONOS RECORDS, etc but over the years but these record label themes programs started to wane after a while. The last show dedicated solely to La La Land Records was back in June of 2012.  You can still find that show Rby going to http://www.cinematicsound.net/la-la-land-records-round-up/ So, today, we thought we’d give this other go. La La Land Records has kindly supplied the program with some of their more recent releases and we’ll include a score from their back catalogue as chosen by you on Twitter. On the program today you'll hear selections from FAR AND AWAY by John Williams, SLIVER with music by Howard Shore and additional music by Christopher Young, MYSTERY MEN by Stephen Warbeck with additional music by Shirley Walker, POINT BREAK by Mark Isham, and CASPER by James Horner. Plus, we’ll pay tribute to one of the greatest guitar heroes of all time, Eddie Van Halen, who lost his battle with cancer on October 6th. We will spin the track "Respect The Wind" from TWISTER in his honour. A big thank you to MV Gerhard and Matt Verboys at La La Land Records and Tim Burden for making this show possible —— Cinematic Sound Radio is fully licensed to play music by SOCAN.

Nelson Riddle’s score for Batman, including the 1966 film Batman: The Motion Picture, features energetic, swing-influenced cues that adhere to the action like a Carl Stalling Looney Tunes score, and opera-esque motifs for each villain and each Bat-vehicle. As incidental music tends to be, it’s probably the most underappreciated aspect of the series. In this episode, film music commentator Jeff Bond, who wrote the liner notes for Film Score Monthly’s CD release of the Batman film’s music in 2000, joins us to talk about what Nelson Riddle brought to the Bat-table. Also, your response to our Julie Newmar/Eartha Kitt comparison in episode 140!

Welcome to the next new episode of the podcast! It's been awhile since my last episode of this variety, being that it is split into two segments - the first focuses on a notable and favorite score of mine, followed by a segment that is a free-wheeling chat between myself and another soundtrack fan!  Modernist composer Alex North's challenging, complex and arresting score for the 1981 dark fantasy film DRAGONSLAYER has long been considered memorable for the genre overall. I briefly present North's background before turning my attention to DRAGONSLAYER, its recurring themes and where it fits among his other epic scores. Afterwards, I talk with a fellow movie music fan and my good friend for more than 25 years, Todd Smith. He shares what scores caught his attention, becoming a soundtrack collector, what makes this music memorable and many mentions of James Horner's music. The beginning of our own friendship is revealed as well, all thanks to the early days of Film Score Monthly.

Special - Calling Alpha Control: JEFF BOND EPISODE SYNOPSIS: We welcome Back Lost in Space Music expert Mr. Jeff Bond to Alpha Control for an exclusive interview. Jeff is an accomplished Author, Music Critic & Album Producer. He’s written several books on Sci-Fi related topics including The Music of Star Trek, The Art of Star Trek: The Kelvin Timeline, The World of Orville & of course THE FANTASY WORLDS OF IRWIN ALLEN; the deluxe 600+ page limited edition coffee table book which takes readers on a visual journey through the mind and career of legendary producer Irwin Allen. Notably for us, Jeff along with his colleague Neil Bulk was Album Producer on the beautiful LOST in SPACE 50th Anniversary Soundtrack Collection, released in 2015. In addition, in 2018 he co-produced again with Neil Bulk, a 4-disc LOTG 50th Anniversary Soundtrack collection. Now his latest project; which he teased for us last time; the definitive 4-disc Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea; Original Television Soundtrack Collection which was recently released in early summer 2020. JEFF’S BIO: Mr. Bond is originally from Ohio & graduated from Bowling Green State University with a degree in Creative Writing after which he pursued his career as a movie magazine reporter. Jeff’s knowledge of film & TV music scores & their creators dates back to the 1990’s when he served as senior editor for Film Score Monthly. As a free-lance writer he has written articles for The Hollywood Reporter, Geek Monthly and Cinefantastique magazine. From 2003 to 2006, Jeff served as Senior Editor at CFQ, the later-day revival of Cinefantastique. In addition, he has written hundreds of movie and television soundtrack liner note booklets as an editor for GNP Crescendo Records, Varèse Sarabande Records & La-La Land Records. In 2012 he shared an IFMCA Award nomination for Star Trek: TOS Soundtrack collection & won the shared 2012 Award for Star Trek: TMP (expanded soundtrack) in the category of Best Archival Release of an Existing Score, for his work as producer & liner notes author. Just like the last time he was on the show; Jeff was extremely generous with his time. In fact, the focus of this interview was supposed to be Jeff’s new VTTBOTS Soundtrack, however I couldn’t resist asking about his recently published book; 'Star Trek-The Motion Picture; Inside The Art & Visual Effects'; it’s a film I’ve been fascinated with since it premiered back in 1979. So, before I knew it, we’d done an entire show without talking about the Voyage soundtrack. As a result, I’ve decided to split our conversation into TWO Special Calling Alpha Control interviews. In this one, we’ll talk about his beautiful new Star Trek coffee table book & I’ll save the Voyage discussion for a future episode, so stay tuned for that. But, for now, sit back relax & enjoy this First of TWO power-packed interviews with Author & Soundtrack Producer Jeff Bond. PODCAST INFO: This interview was conducted on 3 SEP 2020.

PLEASE DOWNLOAD and listen at your leisure. Canadian Saul Pincus joins us to discuss filmmaking, roles of Directors/Editors around music and of course, some of his favorite scores. He is an accomplished director and editor having worked on numerous projects. He also collaborated with Directing legend Sidney J Furie on several projects. We have a wide ranging discussion on many aspects of filmmaking in addition to some great music from the golden age to present day. He's also produced several documentaries for Film Score Monthly so you know he knows his stuff! 

PLEASE DOWNLOAD AND LISTEN AT YOUR CONVIENENCE. In these troubled times, its good to have distractions so... great film music and conversation are just what the doctor ordered. To celebrate our 1 year anniversary of What's the Score, we have assembled some highlights from past shows, both stories and music. I couldn't included everyone I wanted and I remain grateful for all my guests. This program features individuals like Composer George Clinton (our first guest, composer for Austin Powers films and more), Producer Robert Townson (responsible for releasing hundreds of film scores on CD), Producer Lukas Kendall (founder of Film Score Monthly, Composer John Altman (composer, musician and co-writer of "The Bright Side of Life") and finally my 1981 interview with Composer John Barry. We play some of the more interesting stories as well as representative music. Please join us for an interesting and entertaining one hour retrospective. All the episodes with each of these guests is available, in its entirety, in our archives. 

John Williams closed out a very busy 1976 with his compositions for the score to the thriller "Black Sunday," which would get a delayed release until spring 1977. Host Jeff Commings is joined by Siddique Hussain, who counts the score as one of his favorites from the Maestro in the time between "Jaws" and "Star Wars." He cites some thematic material and musical styles used in the score that will make stronger appearances in future films, including "Star Wars." Since the film did not fare well at the box office, and critics were divided on the movie, Williams' score got lost in the mix of his two other 1977 compositions. Thanks to a CD released by Film Score Monthly -- and this podcast episode -- you can enjoy the finer points of this score!

MONSTER PARTY MIXES UP A CATACLYSMIC COCKTAIL OF CATASTROPHE! In this episode, JAMES GONIS, SHAWN SHERIDAN, LARRY STROTHE, and MATT WEINHOLD, ask questions like, "Is there such a thing as too many movie stars?" and "What is SENSURROUND, and is it really necessary?" These questions and more, will be answered in an episode that celebrates... DISASTER MOVIES!!! We're talkin' earthquakes, burning skyscrapers, planet pulverizing meteors, capsized ocean liners, atom bombs, hurricanes, killer bees, and MORE! Joining us for this intoxicating tribulation, is an author whose recent book, THE FANTASY WORLDS OF IRWIN ALLEN, honors Hollywood's one and only "master of disaster." MONSTER PARTY is proud to welcome for the first time... JEFF BOND! (THE MUSIC OF STAR TREK, FILM SCORE MONTHLY, GEEK MONTHLY, THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER, CINEFANTASTIQUE, THE ART OF STAR TREK: THE KELVIN TIMELINE) If you'd like to purchase, THE FANTASY WORLDS OF IRWIN ALLEN (and I mean, why wouldn't you?), go to https://creaturefeatures.com/shop/books/the-fantasy-worlds-of-irwin-allen/ Be envy of your friends... before it's too late!

Original Broadcast: March 14, 2012 Original Show Notes - GUEST HOST: AMER ZAHID Cinematic Sound is proud to add another personality to our ever-expanding roster of guest hosts.  Amer Zahid is a lifelong film music aficionado and collector from Karachi, Pakistan. His formal introduction to film music began at age 7 with John Williams' SUPERMAN: THE MOVIE in the late 70's and it opened the flood gates for his love of film music. Amer has written for Lukas Kendall’s Film Score Monthly, Len Mullinger’s Film Music on the Web as well as other internet based film music review websites. Amer’s favorite composers are John Williams, Jerry Goldsmith, John Barry, Miklos Rozsa, Maurice Jarre and of course Bernard Herrmann. Herrmann’s music from Alfred Hitchcock’s PSYCHO and VERTIGO had a profound effect on him and was quick to embrace the works of legendary Golden Age composer. In this first part of Cinematic Sound's celebration of Bernard Herrmann's 100th anniversary, (which was actually last year - Bernard Herrmann was born on June 29, 1911 - so we are a little late to the party, big whoop, wanna fight about it?) Amer will be exploring, among other things, Herrmann's career with legendary directors Orson Welles and Alfred Hitchcock and presenting music from THE SEVENTH VOYAGE OF SINBAD, ON DANGEROUS GROUND, THE MAGNIFICENT AMBERSONS, NORTH BY NORTHWEST, VERTIGO, 5 FINGERS, THE SNOWS OF KILIMANJARO and THE GHOST AND MRS. MUIR.

After a hiatus, we're back with an episode about my favorite film of all-time: Francis Ford Coppola's 1974 paranoid thriller, THE CONVERSATION.  THE CONVERSATION has a special relationship with two other films: Antonioni's BLOW UP, which preceded and inspired it, and Brian De Palma's BLOW OUT, which is influenced by both movies.  This episode explores the interconnection between the three through their music, sound design, and especially their thematic interests which include reality, perception, truth, and privacy.  Naturally SPOILERS for the three movies, which do have some surprising twists and turns. I'm also including a spoiler warning for Hitchcock's VERTIGO as that film's plot has a special relationship to BLOW OUT.  Show Notes: 0:00:00 - Introduction 0:03:00 - Blow Up Intro 0:04:15 - Herbie Hancock / Music as Setting & Counterpoint 0:08:28 - The Blow Ups: Narrativized Reality 0:11:58 - Persona Music: Bullitt, Pelham, Dirty Harry 0:13:30 - The Conversation Intro 0:16:00 - Harry Caul's Theme 0:20:45 - The Assignment Theme 0:22:00 - Theme Melding / Filtering and Processing 0:25:27 - Amy's Theme: Harry & Relationships 0:31:13 - The Ending & Legacy 0:36:30 - Blow Out Intro / De Palma & Hitchcock 0:39:35 - Coed Frenzy: Disco & Rock 0:43:40 - Recording & Conspiracy / National Mood 0:51:03 - Suspense Music: Burke Materail, Psycho 0:53:48 - Tragic Love: Jack & Sally's Theme, Vertigo 1:03:45 - Truth & Perception in the Trio 1:05:05 - Outro / Sources / Social Media / "Theme from The Conversation" Please subscribe, rate, review and/or leave a comment on iTunes.

Llegamos a nuestro tercer programa con un podcast para el comentario y análisis de la película Ben-Hur (William Wyler, 1959) con música del genial compositor húngaro Miklós Rózsa. El análisis en profundidad de esta superproducción de la Metro, nos ha obligado a realizar dos podcasts para repartir la gran duración de este trabajo de casi ocho horas de comentarios y música. Y también para facilitar la audición del programa completo. Al igual que en las grandes superproducciones clásicas hemos realizado una "intermission" al termino del análisis del primer CD de la edición Film Score Monthly con Miklós Rózsa dirigiendo la M-G-M Symphony Orchestra and Chorus que conforma este primer podcast. Junto con otros temas musicales que hemos incluido en el tracklist, cortes, secuencias y las secciones de nuestros colaboradores "Conexión Berlín" con Celia Martínez, "Cuaderno de cine" con Fernando Alonso Barahona, "El Acomodador" con Alí Trujillo y la incorporación a nuestro equipo del crítico de cine César Bardés y su nueva sección "Dirigido por" analizando al director William Wyler. Este programa ha supuesto un gran esfuerzo de todo el equipo y en especial quiero agradecer a Miguel Casares por la confección de esas fantásticas cabeceras de las secciones y al gran Alí Trujillo por su impagable labor al montaje de este mega podcast que rinde homenaje a una película más grande que la vida misma. Una colosal superproducción, sobre una historia de los tiempos de Cristo, ganadora de 11 Oscars y entre ellos a la genial banda sonora del maestro Miklós Rózsa del que se cumple, este próximo 18 de Abril, el 110 aniversario de su nacimiento en Budapest. Esta masterclass tan sólo pretende homenajear a esta grandiosa película y acercar a los oyentes al espectacular score de Rózsa. De los mejores y más influyentes de toda la historia del cine.

Welcome back to the CINEMATIC SOUND RADIO TOP 10. Last week's inaugural episode was such a success that I'm proud to announce that this will be a new weekly program that I produce for you as I take you on a journey through my film music collection playing single tracks that fit a particular theme. This week's theme comes from Jason Drury, who wanted to hear my Top 10 favourite rejected scores. That's a great topic but I'll save that for a much longer episode. Instead, I decided to play tracks written by a composer, who had a cue or two rejected, replaced or was simply unused for whatever reason. On the program today, you will hear music from such composers as John Williams, Dave Grusin, Danny Elfman, Georges Delerue and much more. I want to thank all of my followers on Twitter and everyone at the Film Score Monthly message board for their invaluable assistance in helping me select the tracks for today's program. Please feel free to leave a comment or two in the comment section below. And if you have a suggestion for a future Top 10 episode please email me or send me a Tweet with suggestions.

Lukas Kendell Interview. To the general public in 1990, the word “soundtrack” meant only a compilation of popular songs from movies such as Top Gun and Footloose. So, to help expand knowledge of and appreciation for the fine art of composing for film, Lukas Kendell created Film Score Monthly. FSM began as a one-page newsletter sent to 11 people. Since then, it has grown into a magazine, a record label, a website, and the home of other publishing endeavors. In addition to releasing the complete scores for Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan and Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, FSM has also produced a massive fourteen-disc box set that includes almost every note composed by Ron Jones for Star Trek: The Next Generation, as well as music from the PC games Starfleet Academy and Starfleet Command. In this episode of Melodic Treks, host Brandon-Shea Mutala is joined by Kendell to discuss the early days of his magazine, the challenges of CD production, and The Ron Jones Project. We also talk about some holy grail releases that Kendell helped produce such as those for White Dog, The Wrong Man, Beneath the Planet of the Apes, and the eight-disc Superman box set.

Neil S. Bulk Interview. La-La Land Records has become synonymous with Star Trek soundtracks. And not just any soundtracks, but the kind that bring history to life by delving more deeply into the rich tapestry of sounds that is a cornerstone of Gene Roddenberry's creation. One of the men behind this success is Neil S. Bulk. No stranger to film music, he is the producer of many film soundtrack releases including Batman, Batman Returns, Total Recall, Days of Heaven, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Police Academy, Dances with Wolves, and the massive 15-disc Star Trek: The Original Series Soundtrack Collection. In this episode of Melodic Treks, host Brandon-Shea Mutala is joined by Neil to find out what it means to be a producer of film soundtrack releases, what sort of difficulties come up during production, and the process of transferring tape to digital. Neil also talks about his dream projects and the current status of music from Star Trek: The Animated Series. Chapters "The Force Field (Alternate)" (excerpt) (Composed by J.
