Music For Films - Goran Bregovic

Advantages: A sublime fusion of roots and more modern music
Disadvantages: Not as good as some contemporaries

...pleasant sound. The track Gurbetski Tango is an undoubted hit, a soothing and musical masterpiece, Duj Duj has a very turkish oriental sound, Dvojka starts off with a bit of mellow Drum and Bass before moving on to a very classical sound, whilst more upbeat tracks like Papusha, Komedija and Mozzarella add classy clasical vitality to the album. Undoubtedly one of if not the best Serbian roma band currently but not as good as fellow musicians who focus more on the roots side of things like Bengas, Bregovic, Redzepova, Puceanu or Taraf Haidouks in my eyes. The majority of the songs can be found either on www.myspace.com/romakal or through youtube, this may help you decide whether or not you wish to purchase the album! 1. Duj Duj 2. Dvojka 3. Lili 4.

Advantages: Its music from the film, not music that the actors like.
Disadvantages: All tracks have levels of similarity

...Fight club the film may be one of the best extravert films to appear since the winter of 99', but is the soundtrack up to the same expectations. For me Fight club the soundtrack is nothing out of the ordinary, The music all of which is performed by the highly talented "Dust Brothers", is the music that is heard in the film. This does, however,beat some of today's soundtracks which have music selected by the cast rather then that shown in the film. Most of the songs have alot of scratching and heavy dance styled beats, which together give the film a sence of heart beat and the viewer an all inspiring feeling of being Tyler Durden! As a general rule if you like Mix music and liked the film then you are going to like the soundtrack!... Read review

Advantages: Great cover, some good music
Disadvantages: Much of the music does not stand up to this listening

...The Carry On Album is a CD of music from the wonderful Carry On films, which spanned three decades. It is played by the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra & is really only for huge officianados of the films. Some of the music is instantly recognisable & evokes all kinds of great memories about the films, but other tracks do not stand up so well as pieces of music, away from the films they were written for. The music from the Carry On films - Camping, Sergeant, Teacher, Nurse, Cabby, Cleo, Jack, Behind, At Your Convenience, Up The Khyber, Doctor & Doctor Again - does not stand up well as an album, but the art work on the cover is great....
