The September Sessions by Jack Johnson/Original Soundtrack (CD - 12/17/2002)
"The September Sessions" (12/17/2002) Soundtracks Johnson, Jack, Universal DistributionOriginal score composed by Jack Johnson. Personnel: Jack Johnson (vocals, guitar). Audio Mixer: DJ Greyboy. Recording information: KFOG, San Francisco, CA. Photographer: Scott Soens. Unknown Contributor Role: Mike Weitman. Arranger: DJ Greyboy. An interesting hodge-podge of tracks used in singer/songwriter/erstwhile beach bum Jack Johnson's 2000 surfing documentary of the same name, THE SEPTEMBER SESSIONS manages to convey a laid-back, groovy atmosphere that perfectly evokes the film's subject. The opening track, a live version of Jimmy Buffet's "Pirate Looks At 40" performed by Johnson himself, sets the tone for the entire album, establishing a melancholy mood that clearly resonates with the aging ex-champion wave rider. Other highlights include an unusually soulful contribution from G. Love & Special Sauce and a vintage Indian Bollywood-esque track lifted from 1999's must-have BOMBAY THE HARDWAY: GUNS, CARS & SITARS compilation. The album's best track, however, is the other contribution from THE SEPTEMBER SESSIONS's main man; "F-Stop Blues," is a breezy, wistful delight worthy of Nick Drake or Tim Hardin, and makes a fitting conclusion to an album as warm and engaging as the pacific waters pictured on the disc's cover.

Over the Hedge [Original Soundtrack] by Original Soundtrack/Rupert Gregson-Williams (CD - 05/16/2006
"Over the Hedge [Original Soundtrack]" (05/16/2006) Soundtracks Original Soundtrack, Epic/SonyComposer: Rupert Gregson-Williams. Personnel: Ben Folds, William Shatner (vocals). Audio Mixers: Frank Wolf; Joe Costa; Alan Meyerson; Michael Brauer; Ben Grosse. Recording information: Air Lyndhurst; EMI Abbey Road Studios, London, England. Arrangers: Paul Buckmaster; Rupert Gregson-Williams. With bright, brassy songs by Ben Folds and Rupert Gregson-Williams' playful but surprisingly tense orchestral score, the soundtrack to DreamWorks' film adaptation of the comic strip Over the Hedge strikes a good balance between traditional film music and pop. Gregson-Williams' pieces capture a lot of moods, sometimes all in one track: the twinkling, bustling feel of "The Family Awakens" evokes the manicured suburban jungle that the film's former forest creatures find themselves in, while "Play?" is a brief but lively piece of comical chase music. "Let's Call It Steve" is a standout, moving from quiet and slightly spooky to full-blown action music. Consisting of mostly energetic pieces like these and "Hammy Time," Gregson-Williams' score is remarkably unsentimental. In fact, most of Over the Hedge's emotional moments come from Folds' songs. "Family of Me" and "Still" are well-written and sweet without being saccharine, even if the strings on both tracks are a little overdone. Folds could've been picked to contribute songs to this soundtrack just because of his hit "Rockin' the Suburbs," but his quirky mix of humor and sentimentality works well here, especially on the more upbeat songs like "Heist." Versions of the Clash's "Lost in the Supermarket" and his own "Rockin' the Suburbs" -- which features a Has Been-like cameo from William Shatner (who voices Ozzie the Opossum in the movie) as a frantic suburbanite -- add a dash of hipness to the album. Over the Hedge is smart enough for parents and fun enough for kids; it's refreshing when a family film soundtrack like this comes along every once in a while. ~ Heather Phares

Honey by Original Soundtrack (CD - 11/25/2003)
"Honey" (11/25/2003) Soundtracks Original Soundtrack, ElektraThis is a Hyper CD, which contains regular audio tracks and also provides a link to the artist's website with the help of a web browser. Original score composed by Mervyn Warren. This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. Personnel: Nate Dogg (vocals, background vocals); Ghostface Killah, Missy Elliott, Saigon, Trife, Blaque (vocals); Mike Tiger (guitar, keyboards); Carlos Bedoya (keyboards); Mark Ronson (percussion); Warryn Campbell (programming). Audio Mixers: Duro; Scott Kieklak; Jean-Marie Horvat; Tommy Uzzo; Troy Hightower; Bruce Buechner. Recording information: Hit Factory Criteria, Miami, FL; Hit Factory Recording Studios, New York, NY; L.i.t.e. Recording Studios, Long Island, NY; Mirror Image Recorders, New York, NY; Record Plant Studios, CA; Sound on Sound; Studio 24, Burbank, CA; The Grind Factory, Los Angeles, CA. The movie HONEY stars Jessica Alba as an attractive, gritty, hard-working dancer determined to work her way to the top. With that plot, the advanced buzz surrounding the movie compared it to two movies of vastly differing fates, FLASHDANCE and GLITTER, both of which studied performers resolute in their path towards stardom. Both films also had high-profile soundtracks. However, in all of these films and soundtracks, the key distinction is the world in the characters live; where FLASHDANCE concerned a very 1980s rock world, and GLITTER a glamorous ultra-pop world, HONEY lives in the world of hip-hop. The soundtrack for HONEY features an invigorating mix of rap styles, kicking off with a bang as the movie's sharp co-star, Missy Elliott, shows off her primary career on the predictably clever and catchy new track "Hurt Sumthin'." Blaque's "I'm Good" features about as heady a balance of titillation and wit as one can find. The rest of the record includes some excellent hip-hop tracks such as Erick Sermon and Redman's "React," Fabolous's "Now Ride," and from the world of reggae crossover, Sean Paul's instant classic "Gimme the Light."

Big Fish by Original Soundtrack/Danny Elfman (CD - 12/23/2003)
"Big Fish" (12/23/2003) Soundtracks Original Soundtrack, Sony Music Distribution (USA)Original score composed by Danny Elfman. Recording information: Air Studios, Lyndhurst Hall, London, England; Studio X, Seattle, WA. Tim Burton's charming 2003 film relates a series of fantastical tales, as narrated by a bed-ridden father to his estranged son. As with most Burton projects, the string-laden score for BIG FISH is provided by Danny Elfman. Here the renowned composer mixes energetic, upbeat passages with quiet, elegant moments to complement the alternately whimsical and moving events on the screen. The title track juxtaposes gentle orchestral waves with a spry, down-home fiddle melody, while "Leaving Spectre" conjures up an ominous mood. In addition to Elfman's score, the soundtrack presents "Man of the Hour," a reflective tune by Pearl Jam that touches directly on the movie's themes. BIG FISH also features tracks by a refreshingly wide range of artists, from Bing Crosby (a classic Dixieland take on "Dinah") to the Allman Brothers Band (the easy-going "Ramblin' Man"), all of which contribute to the movie's pleasantly episodic vibe.
