As I allude to in this thread, I’ve always had any issue with a lot of the dissonant music that is used in horror, especially tropes like tenuto strings (“sneaking-around music”) or stingers. Needs to be darkly romantic somehow. Or lots of synths.

Indeed this topic was meant as a kind of more specific follow up. I agree, I like those scores best that are not totally dissonant or “noise”.

Still, picking just five is incredibly difficult.

Absolutely and I just picked what I thought of first. Good list too. Although I don’t know a few of them.
