What's New At G-POP.net:
El Complot Mongol - Melissa Minners reviews the soundtrack of the dark comedy also known as The Mongolian Conspiracy.
Excerpt: "...As I listened, I equated the detective noir/jazz with Filiberto Garcia. I noted the Chinese influences in tracks like Canton Coffee Shop and The Golden Dragon and Opium House and the Russian influences in The Russian Waltz. I laughed at the bad guy piano flourish found in old silent films that made its way into Friends and Foes and I loved the Conspiracy Mambo, Action Mambo and other Latin-inspired music found on the album..."
Saving Meghan - Melissa Minners reviews the medial thriller from D.J. Palmer.
Excerpt: "I recently received the opportunity to review a medical thriller, something different than what I usually read. Sure, I’m into reading thrillers, but this one caught my interest and had a basis in the medical world, something I would rarely select. So, to expand my reading interests, I decided to check out Saving Meghan by D.J. Palmer..."
Wonder Park - Melissa Minners reviews the soundtrack of the computer animated adventure film starring Jennifer Garner and Brianna Denski.
Excerpt: "...This is the first animated feature Steven Price has worked on, but he relished the opportunity, being a father of young children. The Wonder Park Soundtrack features a score that is mainly upbeat orchestral with horns, strings, woodwinds and percussion. There is a great deal of excitement and wonderment expressed thanks to the creative nature of our main characters. Much of the music is playful and wondrous with soaring music and awe-inspiring choir pieces..."
Sirens - Melissa Minners reviews music inspired by story of The Odyssey.
Excerpt: "On June 1, 2018, Varese Sarabande released Sirens, an album by Craig Safan, available digitally and on CD. The album featured music inspired by the classic Greek myth known as The Odyssey and the numerous locales in which the story takes place. Being a fan of Greek mythology, I decided that Sirens might be an interesting album to check out..."
Assassin's Creed: Black Flag - Melissa Minners reviews the Oliver Bowden novel based on the popular video game.
Excerpt: "I love Assassin's Creed for the fact that the video game combines a great deal of real history with the fictional events placed in them. In other words, this is a historical fiction video game. Now, granted, I haven’t played the game yet…I’m ashamed to say that I haven’t had much time for video games on gaming systems lately and thus, my copy of Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Trilogy has sat on a shelf, unopened. But I have read the novel series based on the games and my latest foray into the Assassin’s Creed novel series is Black Flag..."
Cobra Kai - Melissa Minners reviews the soundtrack of the YouTube Red television series that continues the events of The Karate Kid.
Excerpt: "...The Cobra Kai: The Karate Kid Saga Continues Soundtrack features 28 regular tracks and nine additional bonus music tracks for just under 45 minutes of incredibly enjoyable music. The contrasts of the main characters’ sound blend together when tournaments take place and the frustrations of both characters are also evident in the score. The composing team of Robinson and Birenberg did not only create one slamming musical score for Cobra Kai, but they got to the heart of the main characters and what makes them who they are..."
