[Nils Jacob Holt Hanssen]

Scores from a TV movie (DISASTER ON THE COASTLINER) and a miniseries (CONDOMINIUM) from the tail end of the 70s disaster movie era.

This was more or less a blind buy, but I have a soft spot for that lean 70s orchestral TV scoring sound, so I took a chance on it after listening to a couple of samples.

I’ve listened to only DISASTER ON THE COASTLINER so far, and indeed, this shouts “70s TV scoring”, but that’s fine. Quite listenable, usually melodic, with a great mix of energetic action cues (often with jazz leanings), loungy romantic music and some more gritty tension stuff.
