The LOST Score - "The Brig"
I finally found this episode! Poorly named yours truly, it's been on my drive/s for 7 1/2 years. Originally broadcast in May 2007 this was an episode where we managed to look at Locke's theme in new ways (thank goodness). The shows hope and intent was always to showcase theme evolution, and by...

The LOST Score - "Confirmed Dead"
After 4 seasons of flashbacks of Jack, Kate and Sawyer it was nice seeing the "Chopper Crew" get their day in the sun. My adoration of Rebecca Mader began with this episode too :) I look at a series of theme progressions over Seasons 2 to 4 in regards to John Locke's Theme. My "2008 LOST Theory…

The LOST Score - Ji Yeon
Though "Ji Yeon" itself wasn't my favorite episodes, it did present the chance to examine the use od dramatic accents in scores. So this episode looks at a series of the shows more dramtic moments, and point out just where and how the music can enhance the scene. Play List: Assorted…

The LOST Score - "Flashes Before Your Eyes"
A popular episode, especially with the Penny/Desmond "Shippers". There were a few new Themes and we dipped into a bit of David Lynch's "Dune". It's always fun to listen to any Desmond centric themes or soundbites :). Play List: Assorted Tracks/Artists LOST Season 3 - Michael Giacchino - Music…

The LOST Score - "The Man Behind the Curtain"
I was particularly fond of this episode as it produced new themes. Some of them lasted throughout subsequent seasons. It was also a great tie in to "Tricia Tanaka is Dead". Play List: Assorted Tracks/Artists LOST Season 3 - Michael Giacchino - Gerry Goldsmith - "The Searchers" from Planet of the...

The LOST Score - Mid Week "Retrospective"
I woke up the morning I made this show at around 3.00am and basically just reminisced about the pilot. If I remember rightly the motivation was that the coming episode ("Expose") was rumored to be a "Pilot Flashback". This was my take on what we may expect. Play List: Assorted Tracks LOST Season…

The LOST Score - "D.O.C." Mid Week Show
I had a couple of weeks break from the show, and then ended up doing a Mid Week show that followed the episode "D.O.C.". Music aside, this was one of my least favorite episodes of Season 3. Mainly as the Jin and Sun stories usually bored me to death. Somehow I found things of interest to talk...

The LOST Score - "Par Avion", "Expose" - Mid Week Show
By now the show was getting some traction on iTunes so it was decided a "Mid Week" show might add to the content. This was the first of such shows. I got to play around with some Brian Eno/Nikki Paulo mashups, and had a lot of positive feedback from this episode. .The Mid Week shows generally...

The LOST Score - Enter 77
The original "Enter 77" file cannot be found so I dug out a version with a short intro. I distinctly remember this episode of LOST annoying the hell out of me. I had begun to figure out that the show was never going to answer many of the questions put forward. The John Locke character began to...

The LOST Score - Tricia Tanaka is Dead
One of my favorite episodes as far as fan response. Everyone "appeared" to get a kick out of this one. It took an age to edit, but I turned it around in about a 10 hour period. We only had approximately a day to turn a show around from the time LOST aired and the time we threw a podcast up. . The...

The LOST Score - What We've Learned So Far
I was as sick as a dog when I recorded this "What We've Learned So Far" Episode. I had the worst cold. I'd been in bed for about 3 days straight, and though I was supposed to be reviewing "The Cost of Living" I ended up doing a recap of the last 5 episodes. It was still fun to do, if I remember...
-
The LOST Score - Every Man for Himself
The "Everyman for Himself" Episode, as presented originally on the "Dharmalars" feed. At the time, this was a favorite episode of mine. And not just musically. Dive in and reminisce about a Sawyer centric flashback, whilst getting carried away by the strings... A great episode. Play List…

The LOST Score - The Glass Ballerina
The "Glass Ballerina" Episode, as presented originally on the "Dharmalars" feed. Please note: It's fairly obvious that I didn't think much of this episode musically. It did give us the chance to talk about "Ostinati", and how that technique is used so often to denote periods of time and tension.…

The LOST Score - A Tale of Two Cities
The 2nd Episode of "The LOST Score", as presented originally on the "Dharmalars" podcast sometime in October 2006. Please note: The show concept was still in it's infancy, so once again the audio could be better. But "A Tale of Two Cities" introduced us to new musical themes that became integral…
