Quartet Records, in collaboration with MoviScore Media, presents a limited-edition CD featuring two exciting sci-fi action and horror scores by Christopher L. Stone: GALAXIS (1995) and DNA (1996), both directed by William Mesa.
GALAXIS, starring Brigitte Nielsen, Richard Moll and Cindy Morgan, is a science fiction adventure about a sacred crystal believed to be the source of all life, and a warrior who travels to Earth to prevent it from falling into evil hands. DNA, starring Jurgen Prochnow, Mark Dacascos and Robin McKee, follows a terrifying genetic experiment that brings a deadly jungle creature to life.
Both films offered Stone the opportunity to unleash his energetic, rhythmically driven orchestral writing, combining relentless action, suspense and spectacular musical set pieces. Working with relatively small orchestras, the composer achieved remarkable clarity and precision in the intricate, lightning-fast passages that characterize his exciting action music. Stone particularly enjoyed the creative freedom afforded by these projects, recalling: "I love fast cars and fast music. It's all Rock 'n' Roll!"
Christopher L. Stone is an accomplished composer for film, television and video games whose credits include PHANTASM II, TICKS, TREASURE ISLAND, THE STUPIDS, WALKER: TEXAS RANGER and TALESPIN, as well as the groundbreaking orchestral score for the video game DRAGON'S LAIR.
Bringing together two entertaining examples of mid-1990s genre film scoring, GALAXIS / DNA is a thrilling showcase of Stone's exuberant orchestral style, now available together on one limited-edition CD. Limited edition: 300
Quartet Recordsは、MoviScore Mediaとの共同制作により、ウィリアム・メサ監督によるSFアクション＆ホラー映画2作品??『スタークリスタル』（1995）と『Ｄ.Ｎ.Ａ.II』（1996）のクリストファー・L・ストーンによるエキサイティングなスコアを収録した限定盤CDをお届けします。
トラックリストブリジット・ニールセン、リチャード・モール、シンディ・モーガンが出演する『スタークリスタル (GALAXIS)』は、すべての生命の源とされる聖なるクリスタルと、それが悪の手に渡るのを防ぐため地球へと旅立つ戦士を描いたSFアドベンチャー。ユルゲン・プロフノウ、マーク・ダカスコス、ロビン・マッキー出演の『Ｄ.Ｎ.Ａ.II (DNA)』は、密林の凶暴な生物を蘇らせてしまう恐怖の遺伝子実験を描いています。
両作品ともストーンにとって、絶え間ないアクション、サスペンス、そして壮大な音楽的見せ場を融合させ、エネルギッシュでリズミカルなオーケストラ・サウンドを遺憾なく発揮する絶好の機会となりました。小編成のオーケストラでありながら、作曲者は彼のエキサイティングなアクション音楽を象徴する緻密で目まぐるしいパートにおいて、際立った透明感と精密さを実現しています。ストーンはこれらのプロジェクトが与えてくれた創作の自由を特に楽しんでおり、「速い車と速い音楽が大好きなんだ。要するに全部ロックンロールだよ！」と当時を振り返っています。
クリストファー・L・ストーンは、映画、テレビ、ゲーム音楽の分野で活躍する実績豊かな作曲家であり、手がけた作品には『ファンタズムII』『ティックス』『北斗の拳』『ステューピッド／おばかっち地球防衛大作戦』『プリズン』『地獄のヒーロー／ザ・プレジデント・マン 』、そしてゲーム史に名を残す『ドラゴンズレア』のオーケストラ・スコアなどがあります。
1990年代半ばのジャンル映画音楽における魅力的な2つの傑作をカップリングした『スタークリスタル／Ｄ.Ｎ.Ａ.II』は、ストーンの躍動感あふれるオーケストラ・スタイルを存分に堪能できるスリリングな1枚です。
300枚限定盤。
