Sensational Soundtracks: May
Here's May's soundtrack! Enjoy!
Astro Boy (2009)
by John Ottman and Jeffery Schindler
I know this one is completely out of left field for probably 90% of you reading this, maybe more. Most of what I've done so far has been fairly widely known, so this one is a little off track. Even though this movie is now ten years old (I saw it when it came out), I still thoroughly enjoy this movie. When I simply want a nice, comforting movie to watch, this is what I pick.
But the story also has an amazing soundtrack to go with it. It somehow manages to be both very fun and extremely serious, much like the movie. The Opening Theme never fails to give me goosebumps. Choir is a huge part of this soundtrack, which I'm a sucker for when it's used correctly. There is also a lot of wind instruments and bass to accent the futuristic world it's set in.
To be completely honest, I do not know who John Ottman or Jeffery Schindler are. I haven't some across their names save for this soundtrack, which is quite a shame, since this is some A+ work.
