David Holmes's soundtrack to Out of Sight. Much more engaging than the Pi soundtrack IMHO. I felt Pi as well as the Soundtrack were pretty mediocre, even though it was low budget. Even with a low budget they could have picked better tracks. Most of us have all the stuff on that soundtrack. To me it sounded blasse. I felt like the guy who made the movie wanted to include IDM-ish tracks to be cool, not to reinforce the film; to me this is evident in track seletion. And they kept re-playing that one song with the amen break and the really generic synth lines...it really got on my nerves. I was pretty bored throughout Pi. But I know I'm a minority on that one. IMHO there have been much more well done low-budget films.=20 Plus I think D. Holmes is dope as hell. all MHO... anyhoo Nate On Wed, 14 Apr 1999, Chester Blaze wrote: >=20 > ---------- > >From: xxxxx.xxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx (Weavers, Simon) > >To: xxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx > >Subject: (idm) Psilonaut > >Date: Wed, Apr 14, 1999, 4:37 PM > > >=20 > > Does anyone have any info on Psilonaut?
