Islands will blow you away to start, especially in 4K. Watch them in the order they appear on the discs. ![]() Can't wait to put images on a score I regularly listen to. Just bought the 4K BR (imported it from UK). It is moving and inspiring, and sort of uses hints of that theme from the suite. Again, Jungles isn't my favourite episode score-wise. Very quick and exciting, supporting the fast moving insects creeping about the forest floor.Ī majestic piece symbolizing the beauty of bioluminescent organisms. It sounds like raindrops, as is shown during this scene, and the underlying vocals give texture and add beauty to this track. Humans need to look at this and say "We should be this kind". The raw beauty and sheer genuineness of this track is great, as a loving father spider monkey saves its offspring from climbing to high in the trees. The jitteriness (for lack of a better word) of this goes well with the quickly beating wings of the hummingbirds. All this music is very befitting of the scene. I can also picture the scenes for some of my favourite scores, so listening to them is like a super awesome listening experience with the movie playing in my head!Ī very lively piece, bouncing along with some great string strikes. I think I mostly prefer soundtracks from movies I like in the first place. I don't quite like this Jungles as much as other episodes, but it satisfies. Cities is interesting in that way too! Mountains was always a mediocre one to watch. Probably because it wasn't an episode in Planet Earth. ![]() The opening sequence is similar but then Klebe and Shea add their own mark to it. Musically, my feelings so far are the same as the first - pleasant music, tense when it needs to be, but not something I tend to buy or listen to much outside of the documentary. Jungles so far has been very much my speed. Outside of the goats on the rocks, Mountains didn't really hold a lot of interest for me to be honest. ![]() We now watched "Islands," "Mountains," and half of "Jungles." Islands was across-the-board very good - the sloths, the komodo dragons, the snakes/iguanas, etc. Glad you like them to! I was beginning to think no one on these forums knew what I was talking about. I am happy to own both series on DVD as well as their scores. I love Planet Earth, score and series, yet I feel Planet Earth II's recency makes it better in my mind. It is similar to Planet Earth by George Fenton, yet very different I find. Everything else was the just the latter two. Well Zimmer composed the main theme (Planet Earth II Suite and Epilogue ) alongside Jacob Shea and Jasha Klebe. Kind of weird that they spent so much of their budget on getting a big fish like Zimmer when the end result was very similar. Just started watching this series on Netflix to unwind before bed, are about halfway through the first episode (just saw a volcano explode).Īt this point, the biggest surprise musically is that it doesn't seem too dissimilar from what was done before, sonically or quality-wise.
