Free Music Notes for GoldenEyeFree Music Review: Dark, rich, fascinating, exotic . Thanks Eric Sierra!
I really don't understand any less-than-pleased reviews for the Goldeneye Soundtrack. Yes, if you are looking for John Barry's sweeping orchestral themes you WON'T find it here - you can find it on the other dozens of Bond films before Goldeneye. Although there are some very beautiful orchestral arrangements, the orchestral 007 theme is absent. And for good reasons: A) John Barry didn't score this, and B) this is 1995 and the brilliant Eric Sierra scored it. The songs alternate between romantic orchestrals and brooding electronics. The mixture works; it's lush and intoxicating. Sierra has done a terrific job of creating a Bond score with an electronic pallet. He gives you the same mystery, thrills, and eroticism as an old orchestral score would, except with newer, bolder, more interesting sounds. The best examples are "The Goldeneye Overture", which is probably the best track on the album and is both Bond-sounding and unique enough to stand on it's own. A somewhat-remix appears on track 14. "Ladies First" is probably the strongest example of his electro-techno style. It's quirky but fun. "A Little Suprise For You" is another great song. Sierra's willingness to experiment with sounds gives it a unique feel that perfectly exudes the dark unsteady, mysterious landsape of post-cold war Russia. The album ends with an atmosphereic love song with Eric on vocals. It's mushy soft rock, but it's a nice, woozy sedative conclusion to the record.
