The score for the new Star Trek movie Michael Giacchino (Speed Racer) occurs at a difficult legacy. And certainly you can, as with all things, to argue about whether it has succeeded him Jerry Goldsmith (Star Trek - Insurrection) to a worthy representative. I think so, because the score is very moving and dramatic at the same time. The new main topics seems to match the movie and the action elements are well elaborated. Rest breaks, there are few: The spherical erhu sounds in "That New Car Smell" or indeed that sounded beautiful laced with cool-elegiac strings harmonies "Labor of Love" can durchschnaufen shortly. But Star Trek is first and foremost an action score and so the music over long distances from the massive action tableaux bestimmt.Man is noted from the first second one, which has begun a new Star Trek and airspace. With this score, therefore, does not need Giacchino behind Goldsmith or who has made music for Star Trek films to hide. For Giacchino himself it was probably the big Druchbruch in Hollywood.Und all old Trekkies do not need to be sad, for it the last track of the CD is determined.
Conclusion: Strong score for the new Star Trek universe.
