SOCL Posted June 3, 2003 Author Share Posted June 3, 2003 Is it really stupid if I say I have never heared (of) it? You've never heard of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture?! Formally: Ouverture solennelle "1812", Op. 49. Look it up and buy/download it!

SOCL Posted June 3, 2003 Author Share Posted June 3, 2003 Well, I may have heard it but I do not recognise it by its title...Yes, most people know it if they hear it, but aren't quite sure of the title. The last few minutes of the song are the most famous. I would hum a few bars, but this is a forum and you can't hear it.

Jahled Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 I'm shocked! How can anybody not have heared the 1812, it's about one of the most famous pieces of music ever! You've got to hear it live as well, they roll a tank into the concert hall....  Anyway, go get Miles Davis 'In a Silent Way.' It's not 'jazz' as you'll expect it, in fact you'll begin to realize where Pink Floyd came from... Trust me! http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trejiuvanat Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 I must say I don't remeber having heard it, at least by name. But I added it and "In a silent way" to the downlload queue http://www.swrebellion.com/~jahled/Trej/banner.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SOCL Posted June 4, 2003 Author Share Posted June 4, 2003 I can perfectly imagine SOCL humming the song in front of the monitor all alone... If you only knew the truth...  You've got to hear it live as well, they roll a tank into the concert hall.... You're not that far off, Jahled. When I lived on a Naval base in Virginia, one year they used real cannons and the another year they used the cannons of a recently decommissioned battleship (that was the greatest!). Here they use real Howitzer cannons and, last year, they used a real M60A3 Patton tank! This, of course, was all outside, though.... I must say I don't remeber having heard it, at least by name.

She does a lot of music for anime and is considered a genius in her work. Jahled, she did some AWESOME jazz for the anime COWBOY BEBOP. Here's a site of her's where you can listen to her music (in MP3 format) for free! Be sure to check out the COWBOY BEBOP music!http://www.jameswong.com/ykproject/Here's a more specific link that'll take you directly to the site's music:http://ykp.hindsightproject.com/music.php Edited June 6, 2003 by SOCL SOCL: Putting the BE in BEAK.Read the Forum Rules - Welcome the New Members - Rebellion Reloaded - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Scathane Posted June 6, 2003 Share Posted June 6, 2003 Kanno's track Space Lion reminds of music to the movie Blade Runner... If you ever want to listen to that, be sure to get the orchestral version... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOCL Posted June 6, 2003 Author Share Posted June 6, 2003 Kanno's track Space Lion reminds of music to the movie Blade Runner... If you ever want to listen to that, be sure to get the orchestral version...Never heard it, but I'll be sure to find a way to do so. Space Lion is quite a sad song, especially if you know the events that surround it in the episodes. I was listening to the Turn A Gundam music on her site last night and OH MY GODD!!!! IT IS AWESOME! I would consider it on the same level of quality as Tchaikovsky, Mozart, and Bach but modern! IT IS AWESOME! If you listen to only a little bit of the Turn A Gundam music, listen to "The Concert" CD music! IT'S AWESOME!!!

Jahled Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003 (edited) ...honestly guys...ITT are one of the biggest multi national corporations in the world...Fela Kuti, as an African, wrote the tune to point out it's methods of trading are slightly unfair to his fellow Africans...etc etc...(Please note Jahled is not trying to start a debate on international methods of trade, he knows very little...it's just one god damn funky piece of music...)

I know what you mean. Every time I try to bring up a point or point something out I end up starting a debate, usually over politics, where everyone thinks I'm the evil/wrong one!

Jahled Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003  Such is the fate of being an entity on the internet!! You complained earlier about not having exposure to any of this stuff, you want me to rumble up some CD compelations; i'm sure i've got samplers lying around of my world groove shit, interested? http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
