> Ok where can I start, well Danny's music is good but (ok shot me for

> Danny elfman from Batman, Scrooged our Dark man. Now don't get me wrong
> here the music he composed for Spy Kids is good, just not the best he can

> has done our help alot for this score with his acoustic and really
> distinkt sound that a fan will spot right when he hears it. One of his
> best songs on the album has to be #16 "The Spy Plane" in wich he
> is teamed up with John Debney. In this song you can really hear Danny at
> his best... his Famous soft choir and deeply moving themes such heared in
> "Edward Scissorhands, Black Beaty and The Family man" is gonna
> bring out those emotions within you and is worth buying the album all by
> itself.
> And after there is John Debney... Now we all know John from his early
> career when he took us off garde with the help of "the London
> Symphony Orchestra" and gave us one of the best score ever produced
> "Cutthroat Island". well in this album he did help out alot...
> he got togeter a massive orchestra with the help of Danny. And if that
> wasn't enough, he help compose some of the best songs on this album such
> as "Pop chase and The Spy Plane" but you can hear him better
> with the help of Danny Elfman in #5 "Parents On Mission".
> Film and album producer Robert Rodriguez called up Hans Zimmer for help...
> and what did Hans do? he assembled 3 composers to score the film, Harry
> Gregson Williams (one of my favorite), Gavin Greenaway and Heitor Pereira.
> There is no dought about it, they all played there parts in the score and
> pretty good parts to, for Harry, he has 3 songs on the album... He
> composed the #1 Cortez Family (I think the main title of the album witch I
> think sounds alot like what Mark Mancina would make) with the help of
> Gavin and Heitor. Then theres #7"pop Chase" witch he co-wrote
> with Danny Elfman and John Debney, I think its one of the best song of the
> score. And lastly he composed on his own #18 "Final Family
> Theme" and did a really good job in scoring it.
Gavin and Heitor
> have composed togeter 5 songs in total... in witch theres #6 "Kids
> Escape House", I think they maid on of the themes of the film, you
> can hear it in the beginning and end at about 22 seconds in the song and
> after at about 1:21 seconds into the track its a small theme but good all
> togeter.
> Los Lobos... well he is a talented composer that I remember from the Score
> to "Desperado" he's composed 2 songs for the album and one of
> the 2 I think is the highlight of the album. "Spy Weeding" The
> main instuments being some flamenco guitars and then here comes the
> chorus! my god that song left me breathless.
> Even Robert Rodriguez and his brother Marcel Rodriguez composed some of
> the good cues and songs on this album...
> Well to finish with, the Score to the movie Spy Kids is really good on. I
> think projects that involves lots of composers like this one, is good for
> the scoring indistry because it makes composers that you would never even
> imagine would work togeter actually work togeter. Hey think about it, Hans
> Zimmer and Danny Elfman working togeter on something! who thinks that
> would be a great idea?
what I say is in all the score is good and each
> of the composers who participated did a really good job, but the only
> thing about this album is that its to short, only about 30 minutes of good
> songs.
I recommen this album to everyone who likes Elfman's and
> Debney's fans and to everyone who just wants to hear some of the wildest
> music from a really good cast of todays hottest composers.
**** stars
