Is this available anywhere? I only know one cue, and it's great!
Can't really find it any site to buy the mp3s.

Some cues are at http://www.carterburwell.com/projects/NCFOM.html ---- I have no other sources.

Love Hal Hartley!

Henry Fool is wonderful. When I first saw Henry Fool I wasn't aware that he did the scores to his films (I had only seen Trust before). I was very surprised to learn about the musical side of his life.

Yet another soundtrack that was purchased right after seeing the film.

I picked up a double disc cd set entitled "Possible Music" which features a selection of songs from each of his films (before Fay Grim). Incredible stuff.

I'm a huge fan of his.

Bernard Hermann's score for Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo is absolutely delirious...

It's interesting yes. BTW Cliff Martinez has a site with links to many more interviews and with mp3s of his scores that aren't widely available anymore

You're welcome.
By the looks of it, these soundtracks are available for legal download, right?

Well I'm listening to the Havoc sound track right now.

Good work Format and fair play Chris for putting them out there.

After having gotten the First Snow OST (I think it's his most recent work), I have listened to taht almost exclusively.
The older ones such as Havoc and Wonderland I'd never heard. So it's great to get them off this site.

In similar veins to the ones mentioned.....

I liked the soundtrack/score to Sunshine (although OST not released yet) Underworld did some of this, hopefully it will be released soon?

Also K-Pax score by Edward Shearmur
The Mothman Prophecies score by tomandandy
Code 46 score by Free Association

Another good atmospheric one, incidentally to one of my favourite movies, is American Beauty by Thomas Newman. Pure emotion.

i believe that is also David Torn's guitar ambient handiwork!

I've read that too.... that score should be released imo.
