Directors Cuts: Action (CD, DCD002, Extreme Music / Media Ventures)
Directors Cuts: Action – DCD002 is a specialist production-music CD created for dramatic action, adventure and cinematic media use. Described on the original packaging as “Bullet Proof Budget Blowing Big Scene Blockbusters,” the collection features bombastic orchestral action cues, suspense themes, military-style pieces and large-scale cinematic music.
Of particular interest to soundtrack collectors is the composer line-up, which includes John Powell, Klaus Badelt, Gavin Greenaway, Henning Lohner, Geoff Zanelli and James S. Levine, composers strongly associated with film, television and the Media Ventures production environment. The album includes 18 principal cues together with short 30-second versions for a total of 36 tracks.
This copy retains the distinctive Directors Cuts clapperboard-shaped hinged case, the original insert and the DCD002 CD, making it an unusual physical production-library release and an interesting collectible for soundtrack, film-score and library-music enthusiasts.
