Original music composed by Ramin Djawadi for the critically acclaimed sixth season of HBO's Game of Thrones. Based on George R.R. Martin's fantasy book series A Song Of Ice and Fire, the Emmy Award-winning drama series Game of Thrones follows kings and queens, knights and renegades, liars and noblemen who are engaged in a deadly cat-and-mouse game for control of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros. The epic series storylines of treachery and nobility, family and honor, ambition and love, and death and survival have captured the imagination of fans globally and made it one of the most popular shows on television. The series recently broke HBO ratings records, averaging more than 19 million viewers throughout season 4.

    I'm slowly catching up with my seasons of Game of Thrones (still in the 3rd) but I do have all of the soundtracks and have enjoyed Ramin Djawadi's work throughout. I'd have to say that this particular score for season 6 is truly the highlight of them all however. Djawadi has certainly given the score some pretty epic moments, as well as, emotionally heart wrenching spotlights too. There is a lot of moving music to be found here and I love the variety in instrumentation and choral effects throughout the soundtrack.

    I had a hard time moving past the second track, "Blood of my Blood", because I kept hitting the repeat button so much. Those dancing pulsating strings, chorus, percussion, and big crescendos are hard not to go back and enjoy again. Once you hit the third track, "Light of the Seven"....wow. What a great piano and string piece that is just amazing. The "dramatic pauses" throughout the piece are cleverly handled by the composer and the piece just bleeds with musical emotion. I think I'll have a Game of Thrones marathon tonight (if I can stop playing this soundtrack) just to catch up to season 6 and see what in the world is happening here because it must be intense. Halfway through the piece, vocals and strings pick up the pace. The vocals, at times, are slightly off key but the effect comes off quite beautifully in the context of the music. Djawadi then throws in a pipe organ that will just make the hairs on your arms stand up too.

    "Needle" (track 4) is another great little piece where Djawadi adds some more variety to the instrumentation. The piece consists of some great string and percussion work which work together in creating a very uplifting piece. One of the stringed instruments he uses is really cool and I'm not sure exactly what it is. It might be a Sarod (stringed instrument from India) but I'm not sure. "Hold the Door" (track 9) is another massive cue that begins like something you'd expect to hear in a horror film. Sporadic and terrifying sounds are inserted during the first half of the cue to keep thing interesting. I can imagine running from something very frightening for sure. Djawadi surprises again about half way through the cue as the music begins to slowly change into another movement that just becomes brutally mournful. It's as if you are watching the soul of a person slowly ascend into the afterlife. The score is wonderfully imaginative as you listen to it and I absolutely love music that can conjure up the theatre of your mind.

    Another favorite is the marching and powerful "Khaleesi" (track 10). The music and chorus is definitely fitting for the warrior princess...or queen. "Winter has Come" (track 17) provides the composer the opportunity to add a great variation to the popular main theme. "Winds of Winter" (track 19) is another very cool piece that features a chorus singing something very ancient sounding yet equally mesmerizing. The final six tracks are bonus tracks and I have to extend a big thank you to WaterTower Records for providing a downloadable code for those of us who like to purchase physical CDs. The CD contains an insert with the code but it has to be downloaded to a PC or Mac computer and not your phone or tablet. It was very simple to do and it was great that they included that because the bonus tracks are not just second hand fluff filler. There are some wonderful tracks to be found there. "I Need You By My Side" (track 22) and "The Tower" (track 23) are some great pieces that you just don't want to miss.

    With the bonus tracks, you have 26 tracks with a running time of 1 hour and 31 minutes. The CD contains an 8 page insert with photos from the show, production credits and a special thanks section from the composer. This is my favorite score from the show so far and I recommend it highly.

    I'm a fan of soundtracks in general. Always have been. While feature films tend to have larger budgets -- and as such, bigger sounds -- television can occasionally trump films in terms of building recognizable themes for characters and situations. That's one of the strengths of being a fan of serialized fiction: where you can get a single album of mostly good content from a film like Kingsman: The Secret Service, you'll find a much richer tapestry of sound in something like Doctor Who (a series for which the soundtrack releases have reached the double digits).

    Game of Thrones is an example of a series with a sound that hasn't evolved as much through the years as some of its television brethren (the aforementioned Doctor Who comes to mind), but it has always made very good accompaniment to the images on screen regardless of listenability in isolation. I'd only purchased the soundtracks for season 1 and season 4, both of which featured a number of tracks that are immensely enjoyable when stripped from the images for which they were composed.

    Today marks the purchase of my third Game of Thrones album, and it's money well spent. Season 6 is another shining example of music that is highly effective even when divorced from the show. There are moments of sweeping grandeur, harrowing regret, and even spine-tingling horror. The season finale in particular features a piano driven score that's reminiscent of Murray Gold's work in the penultimate episode of season 9 of Doctor Who last year in that it stands out from anything else that had been written for the show throughout the rest of the season.

    I think Ramin Djawadi's film scores are extremely hit-or-miss, but his TV work continues to be fantastic. He's right up there with Bear McCreary and Murray Gold as one of the best television composers working today. If you like his work on Game of Thrones in general, this is required listening as it fantastically utilizes themes and motifs that have been raised and nurtured throughout the last six years of the series, and features far less filler than there seems to have been in seasons 3 and 5.

    Generally I'd suggest picking up the physical copy of the album -- lossless music is the best music -- but in this case I'd recommend the digital album as it comes with seven bonus tracks, none of which are as memorable as the 19 tracks proceeding them, but all well worth a listen regardless.

    I've purchased all of the previous Game of Thrones soundtracks, and I think this one is by far the best. This further develops many of the themes from previous seasons.

    My favorites include:
    Main Theme (because who doesn't like that one)
    Blood of My Blood: a theme associated with Daenerys
    Light of the Seven: a nice piano piece... reminds me in tone to the London Calling from Star Trek Into Darkness (Music From The Motion Picture)... very different from the rest but great, especially with the way it was used in the show.
    Needle: associated with Arya's story with the Faceless Men
    The Red Woman: theme associated with Melisandre
    Khaleesi: another Daenerys theme
    Maester: really like this one. played when Sam was entering the library in the finale
    Reign: yet another Dany theme (there are a lot of them). I think this was the one played during the battle of Meereen/Slaver's Bay/Bay of Dragons.
    Winter Has Come:
    The Winds of Winter: played at the very end of the season finale

    One of the themes that seems to be missing is the Greyjoy/Ironborn themes (first heard in What is Dead May Never Die from Game Of Thrones: Season 2)... Maybe we'll get it in Season 7.

    Per chi ha seguito la serie ed è in possesso di un buon impianto HI-FI, questo vinile è dotato di alcuni pezzi davvero notevoli. L'incisione e la stampa della copia che Amazon mi ha inviato è perfetta e l'imballo quasi maniacale.
    Davvero soddisfatto. Consiglio l'acquisto di questo triplo vinile dotato di un bellissimo contenitore.

    Qué decir de esta banda sonora de Ramin Djawadi que no se haya dicho ya. Desde el inicio de la serie ha creado una banda sonora épica con identidad propia. En esta temporada aparece la que podría bien ser su pieza más increíble, Light Of The Seven, en su versión sin cortar. Ponla, túmbate y disfruta.
