Awesome! She's been on a roll this year! Sucks we won't get to hear her music for Batgirl :/
Natalie has had such a brilliant past year! Looking forward to seeing what she comes up with next, the music in Loki was so refreshing and unique.
And she did it 🔥
I would like to get a release for Knifgtfall series, it has such a great music composed by her.
liked and subscribed
While I loved her work on Loki (it was seriously amazing), I personally felt her work on Obi-Wan was a let down. It felt very 'generic sci-fi' and didn't feel like Star Wars.
I liked the music in Loki that is for sure. It really felt weird at times and showed that composer got a higher creative freedom while working on it. Main theme is great. I would totally love somewhat similar direction for something like Doctor Who.
However... Obi it was quite a forgettable score except one theme for inquisitor. I have no idea why such a fan service/flagship title could not allow the original imperial march/vader themes or some renditions of them for when they were truly needed. I do not know who's idea that was and at which level or stage of production, but that really did miss the mark. Then again it did not have Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni for such an important title so i would imagine it was at higher production level who did not understand what they were doing. Obi needed either a homage style soundtrack or something totally wild. It was neither. Sounds to me like the producers got Natalie on board, but did not allow for proper freedom.
