This discussion made me pull out some other stuff I have on tape composed by LoDuca. Now this guy JUST claims credit on Xena, Herc and Young Herc right? Well, he's full of it. If anyone else out there has copies of "American Gothic" pop in "The Plague Sower" for one ep off the top of my head. Listen carefully to the music. You'll hear some stuff I'm sure you'll know. In that ep there's two scenes with music that uses the same instruments we've heard on Xena and Herc and also, these two pieces sound VERY similar to other scores we're heard. I think one of them sounds like a piece from "The Price" and defiantly other things I've heard. I have all the Xena and Herc CDs and listen to them all the time. Trust me, the music in this ep of "American Gothic" is along the same lines (though, of course, different cause they are VERY different shows). I think I'll rewatch "Evil Dead" and "Spy Game" too to check more of Joe's music, but as far as I'm concerned, this other guy is a quack. BATTLE ON XENA!

"Musical cue sheet for Blade Runner : The Director's Cut 0.00.00 Ladd Company logo music begins as Ladd Company logo comes on-screen. 0.00.23 Ladd logo music fades out as logo fades on-screen. Black screen and silence. 0.00.29 Title music in as first credit appears on-screen. Orchestral percussive note (sounds as if struck on huge drum) as first credit fades onto screen. Note is struck when letters reach full intensity on-screen. Note fades out slowly, lasting 9 seconds and ends when next credit (Harrison Ford) appears on-screen. 0.00.38 Second percussive note, slightly louder and deeper as BLADE RUNNER title appears on-screen. 0.00.43 First notes of Main Titles fade in slowly as second percussive note is finishing. Notes played softly on a single, high-pitched synth, gives the tune a lonely, personal feel. Drum notes act as percussion to the tune but come in multiples, as if with quick-echo effect. Other credits come on-screen, one at a time 0.02.00 Cross-fade music to 'electronic' noise as the prologue text scrolls up the screen. 0.03.59 Begin very slow fade-in of 'electronic' noise over the music. 0.04.06 Music fades out and 'electronic' noise up as the counter shots of the eye are replaced by shots of a silhouetted figure standing in a smoky room within the Tyrell building. Shots of the city get closer and closer to the Tyrell building, eventually zooming in on the same room from outside. 0.04.20 'Electronic' noise down as an establishing shot shows the smoky room's interior in more detail. A soft, but impersonal, feminine computer voice announces Leon's arrival at the interview room. Holden conducts the Voight-Kompff (V-K) test on Leon, the noises of the V-K machine become the background noises but other noises continue faintly throughout, as does the 'electronic' noise. 0.06.00 Very fast, strong heartbeat sound, getting louder and more dominant, takes foreground to signify Leon's emotional reaction to the test, slight echo on Holden's voice also shows Leon's reaction from his own point of view. Fades out as Holden moves the test on and Leon relaxes slightly. 0.06.56 Leon shoots Holden, who spins round from the impact. Single, ominous synth note to mark the violence of the event, note ends with Leon's second shot and cut to next scene. 0.39.07 Music and background out as Pris and JF enter JF's apartment and JF's 'friends' sing a welcome rhyme. 0.39.35 First notes of 'Deckard's Dream' play. 0.39.44 Scene changes to Deckard's apartment. He is slouched on his piano, slightly drunk and pressing the same note repeatedly and slowly, this blends into the 'Deckard's Dream' tune itself. The tune at first consists of minimal, slightly random piano playing, the notes are prolonged (as opposed to staccato) to reflect the 'cerebral' nature of the scene. Piano plays as the camera pans across Deckard's apartment and a full, warm sounding string section fades in as Deckard at his piano comes into view. 0.40.12 The strings blend into the main, emotive part of the tune as Deckard dreams of a beautiful, white unicorn running through unspoiled forest. This is a choral section with a mood of ''wonder' to it. 0.40.28 Picture dissolves back to Deckard's apartment. 0.40.36 Slightly more unsettling notes mark the point where Deckard looks over at the photos lying on his piano. This is indicative of the connection of these photos to the replicants, thereby bringing the focus out of the dream sequence and back onto the narrative. 0.40.57 Music fades slowly out as Deckard picks up the photos and moves over to his photo-analyser. Background noises come back in. 0.41.56 'Trail of discovery' tune fades in very slowly as Deckard examines Leon's photo. Gets slightly louder as the women in the photo is slowly revealed. Music is slightly similar in style to 'Tales of the Future' (although less intense) in that it has a slightly sinister, enigmatic feel to it. Consists mainly of long, slow synth notes with vibrato. 0.43.34 Ominous piano chords mark our discovery of her, they get louder when her image is printed out." i hope this is helpful. it was to me. would i ever love to see a cue sheet for xena! i suppose now we never will. poop! md ========================================================= This has been a message to the chakram-refugees list.
