Do any other movie scores compare with Danny Elfman's Batman soundtrack? Danny Elfman's Batman soundtrack is magical - as a 12-year-old comic book fan when Batman came out, I went expecting a great comic book movie, but what I wasn't expecting was to instantly become a Prince fan for life, and to hear some of the most wonderful, haunting orchestral music I'd ever heard, from Danny Elfman.
I've tracked down a few of his other scores, and nothing has quite the same feel. I listen to Danny Elfman's Batman score a lot when writing my novel, and I'm wondering if anyone has other suggestions for movie soundtracks or traditional classical pieces that would provide the same feeling of tension and adventure? | |

Danny Elfman who got his start with Oingo Boingo, has been doing the Tim Burton Soundtracks bout forever.
He also I think does the theme to the Desperate Housewives television show. The Most Important Thing In Life Is Sincerity....Once You Can Fake That, You Can Fake Anything. |

The score for Bram Stoker's Dracula and The Lord Of The Rings soundtracks for example.  | |

John Williams is the God of movie scores. Check him out. "New Power slide...." |

Indeed, his 70's and early 80's scores are awesome. occasionally he's still great. |
