Requiem For A Dream (Clint Mansell)

Gladiator (Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerrard)
See: "Now We Are Free"

The Dark Knight (Hans Zimmer and James Newton-Howard)

Off the top of my head I can't come up with much more at the moment.

Zamfir's "The Lonely Shepherd" is one of my favorite tracks (featured in Kill Bill: Vol. 1)... after the break, when it's just pan flute, and then the music creeps in and that trumpet (?) starts up-- that part is insanely sick. I could listen to it over and over.

"Briony" from the movie Atonement is catchy as hell. The typewriter is hypnotic.

Gustavo Santaolalla "The Wings" (featured in some *** movie) is excellent.

Requiem For A Dream has a great soundtrack, I love the the remixes of Lux Aeterna, Winter Overture is my favorite. The Ghost tracks are good too.

Oh, and I can't leave off... ANY music featured in a Sergio Leone spaghetti western.

Goblin's scores for Argento's films are freaking FANTASTIC.

Michael Giacchino's "Cloverfield Overture" deserves a mention. I don't remember much about the music from the rest of the film, but the end title music is easily my favorite piece of film music from last year. It was like Akira Ifukube was back from the dead.

Michael Giacchino is great. He does the music for Lost and it works well for the show but it's also good to just listen to. He can make some great harmonies.

Mothersbaugh's music is perfect for Anderson movies but I could never really see myself listening to it (without watching the moive).

2001: A Space Odyssey
Eternal Sunshine For The Spotless Mind
Fight Club
Slumdog Millionaire
Royal Tenenbaums
Lost In Translation

Oh man, I love both the soundtrack to Life Aquatic and Bottle Rocket. That boop-beep-boop sounding song from diving scene with the headsets in Life Aquatic is freaking awesome.

Ping Island Lightning Strike/Rescue Op is great jogging music.

I love the boop-beep-boop! I guess I was thinking more of the Royal Tenenbaums Mothersbaugh which is great for the movie but gets slightly repetive.


Amazing
