Hello all

Just tripped over your forum by accident, as it says on the tin (and the logo) it seems a friendly place so thought I'd lay my blanket down here for a while and say Hi. :hey:

Been doing the hifi forum thing since 1997 (Yes I'm that old) and are a "well known face" in some of the well known UK based forums.
My system has gotten a little more to the higher end recently and like a lot of us I'm always looking to move on up, so this place seems a good fit for me.

Musical taste wise, Mozart to Motorhead (Adele to ZZ Top?) but a big BB King fan, love the blues, Zep, and have a particular penchant for Movie Scores.

Recently rediscovered the joy of glowing glass bottles...300B SET done right...sublime. (Even with Rock!)

So uhm, hi and stuff.


Gaz.
 
:hey::wave::hey:

If you have just started your journey with 300B, you better start another funds account for the glass side of your system, the rabbit hole is deep. ;)
 
Welcome Gazjam! If you like movie scores I´m going to take the liberty of recommending the following:

Romeo & Juliet - Abel Korzeniowski
Cyrano de Bergerac - Jean Claude Petit
Hell´s Belles - Les Baxter
The Chorus - Bruno Coulais
Kikujiro - Joe Hisaishi (check out his other stuff too Takeshi Kitano films especially)
The Thief Of Bagdad - Miklosz Rosza (check out his other stuff too Ben Hur, El Cid...)
Meet Joe Black - Thomas Newman
Cloud Atlas - Johnny Klimek, Reinhold Heil
The Best Years Of Our Lives - Hugo Friedhoffer
Le Grand Bleu - Eric Serra
The Intouchables - Ludovico Einaudi
Suleyman The Magnificent - Omar Faruk Tekbilek, Brian Keane
Searching For Sugar Man - Rodriguez
The Crimson Wing; Mystery Of The Flamingos
Kings Row - Erich Wolfgang Korngold (this will remind you of something else far far away)
Broadchurch - Olafur Arnalds

Hope there´s at least some you haven´t heard :)
 
Thanks Narayan,
Nice to hear from a fellow soundtrack nut.:audiophile:
Thanks for the list, a few I haven't heard there will check them out.

Do you know any of Max Richter's stuff?
Listening to his score for the HBO Series "The Leftovers" and its sublime.
