Bear McCreary Talks about nBSG music

Post by Grand Moff Yenchin »

The nBSG music composer talks!!

Legal MP3 from the station

The actual nBSG music starts at about 1:06:25 though. Most of them from the 2nd Season.

Damn, they're releasing the cd in the summer! God, I want it now for the "Galactica Attacks" track. It's so frakkin awesome!
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

I hope S2 is a little more complete than S1; I really miss the bit of music from the first attack sequence in "33".

EDIT: This really is an awesome find though, thanks.

I have the first season OST and am considering getting the mini OST, though it was a different guy (I do love the percussion combat music at the end of the mini during that final jump).

HIs combinations of various different ethnic musical types is great.

"A Good Lighter" and all the Celtic themes attributed to the Adamas I find to be my favorites.

Although the heavy percussion reminds me of Halo 1 at times, which is very good :P

According to IMDB, Gibbs and McCreary both worked on the mini-series.

It's in the linked file. You could just cut out the parts before and after it.

I'll second that.

Can anyone who has listened to the entire broadcast tell me how much McCreary spoils of the second part of season two? I've seen everything up to "Pegasus", and I'm hesitant to listen to the interview portions because I don't want to be spoiled.

Have a nice day,

Yes, I know it's in the file. Where do you think I got the title name from? :) I could cut it but usually these programs cost money and those that aren't are clumsy and they don't exactly cut where I want them to be. If you can direct me to a good free cutter, I'd be obliged.

I can't believe this guy is 26, and started working on nBSG at 24.

I guess working under Elmer Bernstein previously helps in the experience department, I guess.

Wheee! Efficiently (hey, this word violates the i before e except c rule!) cut!

Thank you, Bounty!

I suspected as much, but I couldn't figure out why, if you knew this, you didn't just cut the file to your needs. And then I got just plain confused...

Have a nice day,
