Reseting the Podcast Playlist

May 6, 2020 Ken Newquist Music & Audio, Music and Audio Reviews, Podcast Columns, Podcast Playlist, Podcast Reviews

Podcasts help soothe the locked-down soul. What do I mean by that? Well, something that’s driving me buggy about the COVID-19 lockdown is the remote nature of almost every conversation we have. Aside from talking with my wife and kids,[…]

Captain America: The Winter Soldier Soundtrack

November 21, 2017 Ken Newquist Music & Audio, Music and Audio Reviews, Music Reviews

Captain America: The Winter Soldier tops two of my personal lists: best Marvel movie and best Marvel soundtrack. The movie works because it’s a tight, expertly crafted super-spy movie with a ton of heart and great action. The soundtrack works because it’s constantly carrying the[…]

Pacific Rim Soundtrack

May 14, 2017 Ken Newquist Music & Audio, Music and Audio Reviews, Soundtrack Reviews

When its time to kick ass and chew bubble gum — and knock out an impossible amount of project work — the Pacific Rim soundtrack is my go-to music. The movie’s giant monsters (kaiju) and giant robots (jaegers) are well[…]

The Stars Are Right for A Very Scary Solstice

December 22, 2009 Ken Newquist Music & Audio, Music Reviews

Winter is here. The nights have grown long, and while they’re broken by the beauty of annual Christmas and holiday light displayers, they merely hide a daker evil. Talk of Christmas stars and Hanukkah lights gives way to memories of[…]

Halo 2 Soundtrack, Vol. 2 Delivers the True Halo Experience

November 3, 2007 Ken Newquist Music & Audio, Music Reviews

When Halo 2 was released, it was accompanied by a soundtrack. Unfortunately, it wasn’t the soundtrack fans had been hoping for: instead of one featuring the music from the game, it instead pulled the old “music from and inspired by[…]

Storming to Victory with the 300 Soundtrack

June 17, 2007 Ken Newquist Music & Audio, Music Reviews

Maybe it’s having just listened to hours upon hours of the Lord of the Rings soundtrack, but I truly enjoyed the 300 soundtrack’s martial mix of choral singing, Mediterranean/Middle Eastern-inspired music and a touch of hard rock explosiveness. The album[…]
