Bsg
I recently acquired the soundtrack for the second season. Mindblowing stuff it is. It's one of those rare albums, eclectic yet with staying power. It evokes emotions and stirs the soul which is a good thing, especially since I adore the series. Some favourites:
Allegro: Haunting. Listening to pure violin tunes like these brings to mind reading regency romance novels. Heh but seriously, this is an awesome piece, really touches you in good ways.
Lords of Kobol: Beautiful vocals, great piece. She is singing in some African dialect and it's quite good.
Pegasus: Mellow and spacey. Don't quite know how to classify this but whatever it is, it made it on my faves list.
Something Dark is Coming: In my playlist this makes the logical continuation of Pegasus. Perfect follow up to it. Maybe it should be before…eh, works either way.
Scar: For the percussion and a play on my fave bsg staple tune.
Epiphanies: 'Cause I love ze violin and the way it sounds. Really good one.
Roslin and Adama: It's romantic, what can I say and I love violins as I've mentioned.
Prelude to war: My personal favourite. It doesn't get better than this one and it's the second longest running track in the album, the first being SDiC. Epic and the percussion/violin combo, dear god in heaven. It's the coolest thing I've heard since…well, since I saw the damn episodes.
