Topic: Richard Band Library Cues

Someone at FILMUS posted a link to a site that has a lot of film editing software for computers. It also offers music tracks that are compatible with the software. And it looks like Richard Band went Remote Control and has a line of 6 CDs categorized by style (dramatic, comedy, etc.) that you can plug into your video productions.Although the cues have titles, I can't determine whether they are cues from various Richard Band films that are being used in this manner or whether Band composed the cues specifically for this set of library CDs.

It sounds like most (if not all) of the cues are from previous scores. But it also sounds like there's a great deal of unreleased material.The Action CD definitely contains the overture he wrote for his "Up and Down" compilation, plus some Buffy the Vampire Slayer and at least one older orchestral cue that sounds as if it might be from Metalstorm. The rest of it sounds like it may be culled from various television scores like Three and maybe Stargate SG-1.
The Horror CD seems to be made up mostly of cues from Mutant, Castle Freak, and Prison.
The Drama CD has quite a bit of House on Sorority Row and The Alchemist, and there are a couple of older orchestral cues (you can tell by the sound quality) I couldn't identify. I didn't recognize any of the newer material, but I suspect it's more of his television work.
Suspense is mostly From Beyond, Mutant, and House on Sorority Row.
On the Comedy CD I heard Head of the Family and Clayfighter, possibly In the Dog House, and I suspect there are others.
And I recognized almost nothing on the Family comp. Sounds consistent with the TV material from "Up and Down," though.

WARNING: In order to turn off the goddam music medleys, you gotta go to the Quick Mix panel and hit the goddam pause button.Regarding Band's horror tracks. Regarding a track called Grim Nightmares and the violins at the beginning: is that an example of con legno string-playing? Inquiring minds wanna know.

No, that is glissandi, probably glissandi ad lib. But accidentally, the final note in that clip is played col legno!mikael
