[.ca] Monster: Music From & Inspired by the Film

All I can say is::
I have about 500 CD's of all types of music, rock, new age, electronicia, trance etc. etc. This is one of the best CD's I have heard in years. The movie was excellent and the score was incredible. I drive a lot in my profession and I listen to this CD and it makes a great background theme for life. I am very impressed with BT, in particular the work on this album. There are no weak tracks. I dont know what else to say to convey the power of this CD.

Perhaps the best trance out right now:
This is a killer collection (no pun intended). I digged the film and have found this collection by BT to be better than the film soundtrack. Very dark and powerful, just great. This is one of my favorite CDs out right now, along with mr.deviant's "Techno Obsession" which is a killer mix of power rock and hard dance music.

Classical BT:
If you have fallowed BT and read about his past, you know that he had listened to classical from when he was a small boy. So to me, this is the album he's always wanted to do. Just waiting for the right movie, the right moment to release. This is a great CD. I would show it to my rocker friends, to my grandparents, and make 4 copies of it. So I can listen to it in the car, at work, at the gym and at home. And that's just the CD part. The DVD I got to listen to in a 5.1 sound system. Engulfing is the only way to describe it. Such good music, made for 5.1, and it shows. But if you ask me, its not 5 stars, its 6. It compares to nothing!

An Extremely Powerful Score!:
This is perhaps the most emotionally charged score I've heard in my life (as well as one of my favorite soundtracks to date). I watched the movie (at least five times) and I love it! It became one of my top ten favorite movies ever! After I heard the music from the movie, I bought the soundtrack the next day and have listened to it alot. I think this was the perfect music to support the movie as well as the perfect music to listen to in your free time. I didn't even know who BT was until his score to Fast and the Furious. And now I keep up with all of his releases and I've become a huge fan. His score to Monster is his best yet. From "The Bus Stop" to "The Ferris Wheel" to the "Courtroom" track, this is by far the best soundtrack, I think, so far of 2004! You need to get this soundtrack as well as the movie! This was a unique soundtrack because of the DVD feature which is really awesome too. Trust me, buy this soundtrack because it's worth every cent!

A stunning film score from one of trance's hottest djs:
I have been eagerly anticipating the new BT cd for some time now. His new cd is based on the terrific film "Monster" which was one of my favorite films from 2003. What really stood out for me in the film was the amazing music composed by BT. It was nothing like I heard on his previous cds. The music from the film is much moodier and more like legendary composer Brian Eno. It has that same moody, ambience feel. Listening to the second disc (one of these days I will have to get a dvd player to check out the first disc...when I have money that is), the music takes me back to the particular scenes from the film even if I can't seen them. I particularly got the chills from listening to the title sequence as well as the love scene on the Ferris Wheel. The intricate melodies of the madman speech hearkens back to BT's first album "IMA" but overall don't expect anything like from his last two albums. If you loved the film "Monster" as well as the music, then this cd is definitely worth checking out.
