Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0731454639026 Format: Soundtrack Label: Fontana Island Manufacturer: Fontana Island MPN: 546390 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Fontana Island Release Date: August 10, 1999 Studio: Fontana Island Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Rather than settle on a standard vacation to Hawaii, the two young friends in Brokedown Palace--played by Claire Danes and Kate Beckinsale--pick a more exotic locale: Bangkok. A few thrills later, the trip proves to be more than they ever imagined. The soundtrack for this messy adventure? Thankfully, it's just as exotic as the South Pacific. Filled with dreamy dance tunes with a dark underside, this disc is a compelling mix of mostly undiscovered tunes from the worlds of alt-rock and DJ cultures. Nelly Furtado's "Party's Just Begun" is a beat-driven folk tune, perfect for lovers of Ani DiFranco. Solar Twins contribute a perfect techno cover of the Clash's "Rock the Casbah" with dance beats, while Joi's "Fingers" is another East-meets-beats hybrid. Tricky with DJ Muggs, the Asian Dub Foundation, P.J. Harvey, and even Sarah Brightman round out this solid collection. David Newman's morsel of a score is equally globetrotting, with everything from conch shell atmospherics to dance floor rhythms. --Jason Verlinde Average Rating:
 Rating:  - soundtrack cdVery happy with the soundtrack. Very happy with the service. Cheers Karen Rating:  - enthrallinga wonderful selection of music which truly connects you to the emotions in the movie. i do, however, wish the soundtrack would have provided sarah mclachlan with some amount of credit for the song "silence" ... this is a great mixture of music to introduce listeners to the less mainstream, great sound, that is out there and to go with the collection of mixes for underground listeners. i wasn't old enough to remember but was taken to a concert where pj harvey opened for bob dylan. Rating: - emotive and captivatingthis is a stellar compilation. fits perfectly with the movie (one of my favorites) and brings you back with every listen. highlights include the ethereal "silence" by delerium feat. sarah mclachlan, the dreamy "damaged" by plumb, and the powerful "deliver me" by sarah brightman. outstanding upbeat tracks include "party's just begun" by the then-unknown nelly furtado, and the cover of "rock the casbah" by solar twins. directions: 1. watch movie 2. get soundtrack ...

ALWAYS a good idea, especially if you don't have Windows and their little sample listen-list doesn't work for you. No, I am not a Top-40, rap-loving 20 something. In my late 30s. I like electronic and moody music as much as the next person. I have a fab selection, actually - Zero 7, Ivy, Mr. Oizo (Flat Beat), even Enya (sparingly), Portishead, Lisa Hall, Rasputina, K's Choice, Cibo Matto, ...

And I fell in love with it too. You can't not feel refreshed, head to toe, and deep within after listening. It is very well ballanced and very relaxing while deep and dark. |
