Free Music Notes for Miami Vice
Free Music Review: Some very good songs and some not so good
Hit: 3 Stars
While I thought the actual movie tried too hard to come off as moody and stylish without succeeding there were a few songs that were intriguing. I particular liked Patti Labelle's voice on the meaningless lyrics of "One of These Mornings". Once I actually listened to the words I had to laugh. Three sentences repeated over and over but only Patti could make that work. I also enjoyed Emilio Estefan's song and a few others. A lot of soundtracks can stand on their own for musical interest but not this one. You really do need the movie for some and others are just not interesting movie or no movie.
Miami Vice Poster
Like the film itself, the soundtrack to Miami Vice is no 1980s retro-ride. Sure, it opens with "In the Air Tonight," but it's a cover by n? metal band Nonpoint taken from their 2004 album Recoil. Director Michael Mann's slick revisionist aesthetics are confirmed on two types of tracks. First, there are the dancefloor-friendly ones like "One of These Mornings" (a collaboration between Moby and Patti Labelle) and a house remix of Nina Simone's "Sinnerman" by Felix da Housecat. Then there are the more atmospheric offerings, such as a couple instrumentals by Scottish band Mogwai and the last four tracks, that suggest the kind of steel-blue ambiance Mann is so good at creating (especially John Murphy's "Mercado Nueva" and Klaus Badelt & Mark Batson's "A-500"). Odder is the lack of local flavor: there's only a pair of Latin-flavored tracks, Arranca and Emilio Estefan, for instance. Not to mention that if ever there was a soundtrack that should have included at least one Miami bass song, it's this one. As for those who still associate Miami Vice with pastel colors and the 1980s, they're better off checking out the soundtrack to Grand Theft Auto: Vice City--a video game that's actually more faithful to the spirit of the TV series than the movie that bears its name. --Elisabeth VincentelliAlternative Rock Music CDs
