Premiere release of full-length soundtrack by Don Davis for first in wildly successful sci-fi franchise, directed by The Wachowski Brothers, starring Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne. Davis scores for orchestra with emphasis on wild action, dynamic clusters of sound. Intense! Neatest device: no matter how aggressive & dissonant the music gets, Davis often anchors with ringing major chords in high trumpets, French horns. Resulting tonality amidst the orchestral chaos is striking, thrilling! Powerhouse recording made by Armin Steiner at 20th Century Fox another big asset. Don Davis conducts Hollywood Studio Symphony, scores a bullseye! Limited edition of 3000 copies.
