My major favorites are Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops renditions of various Soundtrack classics and new classics.
It helps that the Telarc discs are well recorded.

I like some of Hans Zimmer's scores such as, Gladiator, Crimson Tide, and Pirates of The Caribbean.
Some of James Horner's scores are pretty good as well, Braveheart, and Titanic. And of course, The Lord of The Rings, get the complete recordings. |
i listen purely to soundtracks. i've done so for the past 2 to 3 years. i like epic sounding trailers. iTunes has some good albums: Epic Score has an Epic Action & Adventure series [11 volumes]. Position Music has some. Brand X Music and Future World Music each have an album. Two Steps From Hell has two albums out, both are excellent. Thomas Bergersen (from Two Steps From Hell) has an excellent album on iTunes, also. Most companies cater only to businesses for use in production of movies, etc... but there's a company called Shockwave-Sound that you can buy from for private use. unfortunately, their albums cost anywhere between $90 to $140. I have their Massive Impact series. Very good.
