i agree. i just saw the matrix and the soundtrack was absolutely apalling. it seems they're willing to put big $ in special effects/etc in movies these days, but these futuristic types of movies always have the same crap music: noisey beats with plenty of guitar a la ministry, rammstein, rage against the machine, marilyn manson, etc, etc, etc. dammnit, how can they be so clueless when it comes to putting together soundtracks these days? it's hard to appreciate a movie's visuals when they're accompanied by formulaic pap like that. andrew John wrote: > Alex said: > >where is our generation's wendy carlos? > > Well Aphex Twin's already half way there at least digitally with his face > appearing on everything from school girls to beach-girls.
