Let the celebration begin! The summer hiatus is over… wait a minute, aren’t we already 26 days into Autumn?! Anyway, it’s great to be back and what a great time of the year to make my triumphant return. Two of the biggest scores of the year have come across my desk in the last few days (big thanks to Sony Music Masterworks) and I have decided that SKYFALL would be the first of the two I would feature on the program as 2012 marks the 50th anniversary of James Bond on the silver screen. Dr. No, starring Sean Connery, made its debut October 5th, 1962.

Nine seperate composers have tackled a James Bond film score and the newest member to the club is Thomas Newman (American Beauty, Road To Perdition, The Shawshank Redeption.) Newman was brought on board for this 23rd Bond outing by his frequent collaborator Sam Mendes who is in the directors chair this time around. During this special episode of Cinematic Sound Radio we will be featuring over 30 minutes of music from Thomas Newman’s highly entertaining new score to SKYFALL.

To round out the program you will have the opportunity to hear some of my favourite cues and tracks from some of my favourite James Bond scores including THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH, TOMORROW NEVER DIES and CASINO ROYALE all composed by David Arnold. You will also hear music from A VIEW TO A KILL, ON HER MAJESTY’S SECRET SERVICE, MOONRAKER, GOLDFINGER, THUNDERBALL and THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS by John Barry. I will also sneak in a few tracks from LICENCE TO KILL by Michael Kamen and John Altman’s arrangement of Monty Norman’s classic James Bond theme from the tank chase scene in GOLDENEYE!

This show is also the first recorded at the “new” Silverton Road studio. I recently moved from my cozy finished basement with my favorite posters and all my CD’s surrounding me to a 16 year old home with an unfinished basement. Nothing inspires more than exposed concrete walls and visible insulation. Ah, no need to complain really. At least I don’t have to share the space with anyone. One day this will be a beautiful fully furnished edit suite/man cave. It could be much worse! Anyway, enjoy the show!
