KILL IT BILL.......YOU DID WITH NO 2!!

Advantages: Great party music, very chilling and quite ethnic
Disadvantages: Spoken songs!! how annoying...

AHHHHHH. what can I say the k.b film number 2 is about as enthrawling as the album. What a dissapointment, I expected fast tempos and classic string music..due to the final death you expect the highs and lows right !!! ??? I still dont recall some of the album musc being in the film!? The album starts with opening lines from the film, talking for ages it seems to go on for hours!! Then as the CD progresses you start to hear the mexican and spanish ...
...but this was just toooo mummys and daddsy tacky, towards the end of the album you even get a fake elvis sound alike...strange. The CD was played at a party and seen as everybody had had a few anyway then people thought they were in a cheesy bar somewhere in Spain!! What a let down is all I can say, you do get enough tracks for the money and seen as I got it for 3.00 then yeah I suppose I will dig it out one day again at the end of the night. If ...

Downtempo & Breakbeat Matrix Anthology

Advantages: higly complementary with animated movie, carefully chosen tracks
Disadvantages: not for everyone

...has NOTHING to do with MATRIX OST, because ANIMATRIX is whole different project. Although it grounds tastily in MATRIX, this one spins around Matrix's major plot. But we got to get down to its music. :) When I saw Animatrix for the first time I was stunned by its music. As a great fan of Japanese animation and instrumental tunes I just couldn't break away from its atmospheric and carefully chosen tracks. As in The Second Renaissance sequence, where ...
...Supermoves just rock. Human bodies ripped by androids with massively fast paced breakbeat puts you there :] Opening sequence Final Flight of the Osiris, screened by Wahowski Brothers and deveopled by Square Co. with Juno Reactor's Conga Fury during the action it's just impossible not to cling to! Like in A Detective Story with Blind Tiger by Layo & Bushwacka, after seeing which, I just find their album i got it for myself:) In my opinion The Animatrix ...

Outstanding Soundtrack

Advantages: Keeps the mood of the film
Disadvantages: None whatsoever

This album is every bit as amazing as the film itself. It doesn't matter what music genre you're into, this soundtrack will appeal to you. The thing I love about this album is that every song on it, you can remember hearing it in the film. Let's be honest. There is nothing more annoying than buying a soundtrack to find that the songs you like aren't on it. Or worse, it has songs you didn't even hear in the film. Well don't worry about this one. ...
...group, Leftfield. It also happens to be the first song of the film. There are two songs in the compilation which I feel helped create the ambience of the entire movie. These being 'Pure Shores' by All Saints and 'Porcelain' by Moby. I don't think you can listen to these songs without immediately thinking of The Beach as they fit in so well with the whole setting. One track in particular, for me anyway, really gives you the feeling of being on the ...

Once Upon A Time In Mexico Soundtrack

Advantages: Amazing music, brilliant songs and good vocals.
Disadvantages: Some of the songs could be a bit longer, but other than that the whole things amazing.

Once upon a time, in a land far, far away...a teenage boy sat down with his family to watch Once Upon A Time In Mexico on DVD. The dashing, young chappy had never seen or heard of this film before, although his parents said they enjoyed it very much. He sat down with some pringles and a glass of orange squash and enjoyed the whole film. The next following days he couldn't help but talk about it to all his friends, many who hadn't seen it were persuaded ...
...to the album at least once a day, playing it as background music while he worked or browsed online. For, each track had either a beautiful, traditional Spanish theme or was a stylised action song representing the powerful story in the film. Directed by Robert Rodriguez, Once Upon A Time is a film about assassins living in Mexico, starring the likes of Johnny Depp, Salma Hayek, Antonio Banderas, Willem DaFoe and Mickey Rourke. The soundtrack was ...
