hey all :) with regard to john carpenter's soundtrack to 'sentinel returns', which is/was a Playstation (+PC?) game, a remake of a classic and very weird old 80s title where you had to get to the top of a virtual hill without the sentinel seeing you, i believe.. i once spoke to someone musician-related at Psygnosis, where the title was produced, and I think he said that John Carpenter sent them a tune or partial tune and endorsed it, and they sorta 'constructed' it from there. so maybe music 'in the style of John Carpenter' might be closer ;) So, umm, caveat emptor and stuff.. They gave away an mp3 of one of the tracks on some PC magazine around the time, tho, I did have it at some point but have no idea where it is now.. i'd imagine he hardly has time to do entire videogame soundtracks right now, anyhow (I quite liked "Vampires".) so what john carpenter stuff _is_ available? I think i saw an "Escape From.." CD with music from both movies floating around? hm, did a quick search on CDDB (or 'Gracenote', as it is now..) and they claim about 18 albums, including a compilation with the "Assault On Precinct 13" stuff on it - but some/all of that may be bootlegs, which is the only downside of CDDB. regards, h0l :) ps - ftp://mirror.support.nl/pub/mono/98/m_ewi.zip is an old Mono211 .MOD release which is, coincidentally enough, a tribute to John Carpenter by Linus - it's called "Ewiges Eis".. apologies for subliminal plug, it's just relevant. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
