Enzo Carlino - the wood of the mists and other tales (2008)



8.8

/Soundtrack, Classical music, Mood music, Orchestrated music, Chill out/


Comment: An epic drift between jubilant, heartbreaking harmonies and kitsch-y, synth-programmed beats (indeed, it is very nicely balanced - without sticking out like a sore thumb). Mostly all of that is created in dominating minor key reminding strongly of Ennio Morricone`s monumental tunes. Powerful orchestrated sounds stick out like the philosophy written in chords instead of bare, deteriorating words. The heart-throb of mine is The Marvellous Voyage of Captain Knob which originally was composed as Concerto for oboe, theremin, electronic and orchestra.
