This is a continually updated playlist of my favourite pieces of film, television and game music, to basically to give you an idea of what musical styles I like and so the kind of opinions you can expect to find on my site (much like with my favourite scores list but a tad more specific).
Feel free to hit play on the adjacent Spotify playlist to listen to some of my all-time soundtrack greats, or alternatively see below for a few of my more recently discovered/released highlights or my Cue Of The Year Awards, where I highlight my favourite pieces of score for each year that may not have gotten the attention they deserved in my yearly “Best Of” posts.
Either way, you’ll dive straight into a magical world of soundtrack music.
Apologies about the wacky formatting, WordPress is great.
