Hi all! I “think I know” quite a few of you here, from your FSM Board posts. Some of you will thus “think you know” a bit about me, for better or worse. But in case you don’t, a short introduction –
I’ve been into film scores since my early teens. Now in my sixth decade I feel comfortable as a kind of archaeologist, delving into so much material from my favourite time period (very roughly from around 1955 until about 1985). I have very little connection with the present. I am a man out of time, a bookish, serious old fellow with a beard and glasses, and very little patience for modern fads.
I’d say that my favourite composers are Goldsmith and Williams, but I also love Rózsa, (some) Herrmann, Alfred Newman, Leonard Rosenman, Jerry Fielding, Lalo Schifrin, Alex North, Hugo Friedhofer, Basil Poledouris – and of course I have an unhealthy fascination with mavericks from the world of jazz, especially the amazing output of Gil Mellé and Basil Kirchin. And Oliver Nelson too, but he seemed to be more human than both Mellé and Kirchin, who actually came from another planet.
Hello everyone!
Well my name is Fanny, I’m probably the youngest over here and FSM (yeah I’m a millennial sorry 😂) that I joined a few days ago, even if I was checking the boards since like two years ago, I’m French Canadian living in France so my English is not the best, please pardon my grammar and syntax mistakes.
Was invited by Thor from the FSM boards to join this forum, so thanks to him for the invitation.
I’m a huge fan of film music scores since a few years (got interest about it when I was 14yo, so it was 7 years ago now), particularly synth and horror scores, my favorites composers are likely: Graeme Revell, Jerry Goldsmith, Tangerine Dream, Elliot Goldenthal, Daniel Licht, James Newton Howard, Goblin, Marco Beltrami, Paul Haslinger, Vangelis, Steve Moore, Tyler Bates, Charlie Clouser and John Carpenter.
Then I’m collecting scores on Cd’s and digital since that time, also into trading of recording sessions and complete scores, and I basically joined those places to share about scores since I have no one of my generation in real life to share about it, and well I guess that’s all for an introduction yet.
Good to see you here, Fanny! You might very well be the youngest; I think Edmilson is also in his 20s, but he hasn’t posted much. It’s refreshing with younger eyes and ears!

@Fanny: Reading that list and your comment about horror scores I immediately wondered, no Christopher Young? And is this because you don’t particularly like him? Or are you too young to know him? On the other hand Goldsmith and Carpenter are even much older veterans in that area.
Hello all. Some of you will know me from other forums, good to see you here and looking forward to diving in!
Yup, welcome, James! Hope you chime in in a few threads….we’ve had some new members recently that have popped in, but then disappeared off the face of the earth (Bregt, Graham Watt, Richard, Fanny….).
Hi Thor! Thanks for inviting me here. I hope the atmosphere of this forum will not be similar to the one in FSM… (That was the main reason I left there).
