Interesting that you have KRULL as no. 1. I’ve had the 2CD forever, but except a track or two, it’s never done anything for me (it’s exasperating; and too much ‘horror’ material). But I’ve recently re-programmed the tracks into the old Southern Cross programme (the short, original one), and have high hopes that this new presentation will lead to a new appreciation of this score.

Good selection, Malte. Stefan Nilsson is genius. PELLE THE CONQUEROR is one of my favourite Nordic scores of all time, and I treasure my Nilsson compilation dearly.

Frans Bak I know personally; I particularly loved his recent score for the series DISPARUE.

Halfdan E is a friend of mine too, and he regularly does good stuff, although he’s missing that one big breakthrough assignment.

Fläskkvartetten is a group that doesn’t get the credit they deserve. Their score for the Norwegian movie EGGS was great; one of the best Norwegian films of the 90s.

Jacob Groth I’m familiar with, but haven’t really taken the time to check out his work.

I love Søren Hyldgaard’s work, as well as Björn Isfält — two composers that were taken from us way too early.

Brilliant, thanks for the recommendations!

Anyway, we all know Philip Glass should get the gig… ?

I’d pay good money to see and hear that!

I think McNeely has shown he’s not up to the task with Shadows of the Empire.

Really? I love that album.

I just wanted to state the obvious: C&C releases are a blessing and make the world a better place.

Ha! 😉

Thanks for popping in, Volker.
