Greetings, community. I would like to ask your opinion about following aspect.
There is a fan site - hams-zimmer.com, which fully dedicated to Hans Zimmer and his team/company - RCP (Remote Control Productions). As i understand administrator/moderator of this site by the name Stephane H. / Hybrid Soldier is in direct touch with composers and has an unique opportunity to get some exclusive information from the first hands.
By this information i mean that there is a lot albums there where provided a detailed data about movie composer credits (so called “composers breakdown”).
-
Project details - i suppose here is presented movie cuesheet, i.e. tracks as they were used directly in the movie. You can find this tracks only in some bootleg/leaked releases like “complete score” or “recording sessions”. Theoretically you can also find info about composer credits in PRO units, but my practice shows there is a mess there especially for old movies.
-
Album assembly - this is probably the most interesting and unique info - it shows how OST was compiled from the cuesheet tracks. For example one OST track could be combined from 4-5 cuesheet tracks. I dont know if its possible to find somewhere such information except from the composers themselves.
-
OST credits - basically followed from p.2 - its shows OST exact credits, based from the cuesheet credits. A common problem with OST credits is that even in PROs you can find that all tracks assigned for one (main/title) composer and you wont know who else participated there.
-
There are also full (official?) booklet and project credits.
I have already added/edited some albums in MB as examples and would like to hear your opinion. Should we trust and use this information at all? May be some style suggestions? May be someone else would be interesting to participate in this?
- I have added cuesheet (project details) as separate (unknown release).
- For OST on work levels i have added detailed credits and referenced cuesheet tracks via “based on” relationships.
