Blog Recommendation

Just came across another blogger with so many music recommendation. More in-depth than mine. Please enjoy.

Soundtrack

The best way to find your type of music is listening to the soundtracks. A movie usually needs different types of music for different scenes. So there will be some slow one, so rocks one, romantic one, or just for intermissions etc. “Twilight”  series has a various of choice, and definitely for R&B, Urban and Hip hop, we can find them from all “Step Up” series; modern and pop like “Sex and the City” series, seasonal but also warm and harmony one, can be found from “Love Actually” etc. I guess the most smach hit recent years is the theme song by Hugh Grant and Drew Berrymore from the movie “Music and Lyrics” – “Way Back into Love”.

Quick share – Step Up

Ok this is the song I am listening now, “Show me the money” by Petey Pablo. This song has chosen as one of the background music for Step Up 1, a movie talking about a girl pursuing her dancer dream by her final year project at art school; and how she met Tyler the dancing talent at school when he was giving the community service.

 

I think as a song for dance, the arrangement is pretty important; massive violin backups pushes the song as the perfect one for a group of dancers gathered on stage and doing the group dance. And this is quite a special song because how a rap song like this would have such orchestra ?
