Eerie, Ethereal, Moody, Involving Soundtracks

I think the soundtrack to "Kafka" qualifies quite nicely. Very spooky and dramatic in that eastern European kind of way. As previously mentioned, I'm also quite fond of the "Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me" soundtrack - Angelo Badalementi (sic?) got this one right. Good listening.

I've been *reminded* of many good movies my wife has been renting from the library thanks to you Audiogoners.
I'll be doin a lot of searching !!

The soundtrack to the movie "Yol" has a Middle Eastern flavor that transports me. Also the electronic soundtrack for "Chronos" by Michael Sterns. For the more adventurous, I suggest the electronic SDTK for the 1956 sci-fi flick "Forbidden Planet" and the Tangerine Dream SDTKs for "The Sorcerer" and "Wavelength". Stomu Yamashta's SDTK for Paul Mazussky's "The Tempest" takes you out there and brings you back with Dinah Washington singing the old standard, "Mahattan".

I made a small contribuion above and have been following this exchange with interest.

What a great thread! Informative as all getout and hi-class entertainment to boot.

Wrayray, thanks for your interest and contribution !!
If you get a chance, let me know what you think of the Asche & Spencer's soundtrack.
