I just returned from his concert! That man is a ****ing genius !

He ended the concert with a heavy/electronic/psychedelic/folk rock rendition of La Valse d'Amelie, nothing like I've ever heard. He didn't play any other soundtrack tune in the concert, that one was during the encore. Great concert in all, fusing the sincerity and lightheartedness of his soundtrack tunes with some experimental chaos.

Great film score review, a film score is so critical it can bring a movie to the stars or just bury it in the ground (Requiem for a Dream wouldn't be this huge success without Clint Mansell's compositions). Tho I don't think film scores are a finishing profession, what's great about original scores is controlling the timing of the music. You can never do that with a previously recorded song but with sheer luck, and the timing is everything.

As for the previous review, it just made me realize that it's time to get myself into The Blues Project.
