Really looking forward to Pegasus Disappears- that's a lovely little cue.
I love how Barry likes to conclude a lot of his cues with the same kind of low, sustained string chord :D
Yes, I love that chord! :)
May I ask, after Pegasus, which I'm very much looking forward to, do you have any plans to look at the cue where the airship is approaching the bridge at the climax of the film? It's maybe my favourite cue in the film, although I can imagine it might be pretty challenging as it's got the full force of the orchestra going.
Classic Barry touch.
Yes.
Thank you. I don't have plans to work on that one at the moment. I have a limited selection of cues from the film that I want to reconstruct, and the sinister motif in that cue is already represented in the album, in the track Bond Escapes Roller.
No, it's a different melody. Hard to make out, but I think it's two alternating notes. A-G-A-G-A (pause) A-G-A, then repeat 3 more times. Played on flute and clarinet just like KGB Pipeline.
But, of course, there are other scores less likely to get expanded releases. I've also got to complete my own fan-made Bond mini-soundtrack for an imaginary film.
Pegasus Disappears is coming along nicely.
For these covers, I have used the 4K Blu-Ray editions for most of the Daniel Craig films from Casino Royale to Spectre as my guide. For the earlier films in the series, I referred to the most recent Blu-Ray covers. Although some of these were less than ideal (Licence To Kill's cover, for example, did Dalton dirty...), I do have a fondness for a few, like The World Is Not Enough, which evokes a Man on Fire vibe. I also created covers for the unofficial films Casino Royale (1967) and Never Say Never Again in a similar vibe, as their Blu-Ray covers were particularly lacking.
I did toy with making some versions based on the Blu-Ray steelbooks with artwork from the main title sequences. Might come back to this at some point.
When it came to the video games and other specials, the resources were more limited, but I did my best. I might revisit these to create a tone more aligned with the films in the future.
I hope you enjoy the artwork. This is my first time creating covers like this, so if you spot any errors or have any feedback, please let me know!

Feedback:
- Some of the credits text can be hard to read because it runs into white parts of the background images. Maybe some shadow in those cases?
- Instead of the TND game cover, you posted the TND film cover again.
- For TWINE, I think Don Veca composed the PS score, and Neil Baldwin the N64 score.
- The Nightfire score was composed by Steve Duckworth and Jeff Tymoschuk.
Any chance you'll ever release the mystery cue from No Time To Die that shows up as Bond is driving the plane to Felix's boat and also the plane to Safin's island? :D I would really appreciate it!
You really do spoil us, @mattjoes. Thanks so much for everything you do for the Bond music community :)
I don't like the official Blu-Ray covers too much... (what happened with some of the actor's face... !)
But this is a great job at making everything more cohesive, especially with the Craig films.

My music reconstructions will return tomorrow with another cue!
Thanks :x

It's an orchestral rendition of Chopin's Nocturne No. 8.

(I was planning to release it closely after these last two tracks,
but it'll take longer to finesse, so it'll come a little later.)
