Cadillac Records is a movie that tells the unusual story of Leonard Chess and the famous Chess Records. If you happen not to know about this record label, it is the one that became the home for Muddy Waters, Chuck Berry, Etta James and many other stars of the blues, soul and early rock-n-roll movement.
Sunshine OST
Sunshine is the seventh movie of talented cult director Danny Boyle (Trainspotting, 28 Days Later etc.), a science fiction epic influenced by cult movies like Space Odyssey and Solaris. While the plot itself is the circling aground huge ship and the dying sun the main thing are happening in the minds of the crew. The only bad thing in the movie is the ending the last part of the movie is like a space slasher with not much soul and ideas. Still the main part is spectacular, the movie is definitely a must see thing.

Pirates Of The Caribbean Dead Man’s Chest OST
Most people remember the Pirate trilogy for Johnny Depp’s Captain Jack Sparrow, yeah spectacular, not very deep, but very good. But for me the deepest impression was the soundtrack composed by Hans Zimmer, especially for the second part of the trilogy. Zimmer is one of the modern guys in composing soundtracks, hi still has the orchestral pieces there but he also incorporates a lot of different elements.

1996 – Mars Attacks!
As the whole movie is parodying the whole 50th science fiction the soundtrack is also a kind of parody of the retro-futurism of the early space era. Taking huge influence fro Bernard Herrmans The Day the Earth Stood Still Danny Elfman created a beautiful work switching dynamics between retro-space ambient parts and classically influenced orchestral pieces. Not forgetting the extensive use of Theremin, one of the earliest electronic instruments widely used in soundracks of the space era movies.
Kicking of with marching main titles the movie crashes into a big story of alien invasion and human resistance. While the humans are portrayed with more classical tunes with influences from classical and modern composers, the most interesting part are the Martians. Their parts include the Theremin, synths, minimal string arrangements, a bit tribal percussion and ambient stuff. The masterpiece is the Martian Lounge, great relaxing lounge, Spanish influences and a truly retro-space vibe moving into a dramatic middle part.
One of my favorite soundtracks.
