Joe Hisaishi - Journey (Dreamy Flight) from The Wind Rises

FILM SOUNDTRACK

)

Joe Hisaishi composes for Hayao Miyazaki's films for the last time in The Wind Rises since it is Miyazaki's supposedly last film. 

The mandolin is wonderful and reminiscent of Nino Rota's composing. The song really kicks up at 1:50 with the added percussion and tuba. Loving what the tuba low frequencies do to the piece.

I also suggest "Journey (Wind of Italia)" for some more of that liveliness. 

Ah, yes. And the film was marvelous.

(Hellraiser) Christopher Young - "Resurrection"

FILM - HELLRAISER (1987)



Hellraiser (1987) has a hair-raising soundtrack by Christopher Young who has also written scores for other horror movies like The Grudge (2004) and Fly II (1989).

It's very 80's sounding but its use of sound effects put it ahead of its time. 

"Seduction and Pursuit" , used as the song for the box, is another favorite from this film.
