Chateau Swashbuckling - Matrix Reloaded (Original Score)

[KeirTanaka]

This track kinda sounds like it would fit in a "Pirates of the Carribean" fight scene('specially from 2:15 on)! Not a bad fit in this scene neither, but didn't Dougan also create music for another fight scene in the Matrix Reloaded!

Really good job on this track. Dunno if I prefer it to what they used but I agree with others that said it fits in with the rest of the films music better. I think they could have gone with either piece and it would have been fine.

[sgste]

I think that the beat used in the final cut is a lot more... appropriate. Don't get me wrong, for I am a MASSIVE fan of amazing orchestral music like this, but the matrix is a virtual world, so to have all the real techno beats in there really makes me remember that fact. :)

[Perceptionista]

This track gives this film a different feel indeed. It makes it epic! It also doesn't make the movie feel dated like the techno track in the film. Either way, this just goes to show Don Davis should really be scoring films more.

[Mysterious0Bob]

Awful film, good score.

[generalflood]

The track is nicely composed but it doesn't fit the pace and action of the scene that well.

[ScottyMcGeester]

This piece inspired me to write an action scene in one of my short stories. I love it when movie soundtracks do that.

[valiare1947]

I prefer this track to the one used in the actual film. This rack gives a completely different feel to the scene and I like it much better than the feeling I got listening to the other track.

[jonrellim]

Awesome piece, very funny and wierd composing techniques. Don Davis is ubercool

[KingPointy]

I prefer the Rob Dougan version. This sounds way too Superhero-y

[Perceptionista]

@KingPointy

Isn't that point though? The story has "Neo" as this penultimate superhero-y person so that's what this score created for the scene in mood.

[generatorium]

This song saved the whole movie (M2). Hahaha!

[tretztr]

but an Part of the Original Score is in it

the Part who Neo is running to the Door theres an Part of the Original Music in it.

[mpetyahun2]

It has just put onto Revolutions, when Trinity doesn't accept Merv's deal ! :) Remember?

[Pooptart19]

@mpetyahun2

Actually, the track used when Trinity says "I don't have time for this shit" is called "Time's Up," but I can see how it can be mistaken for "Chateau Swashbuckling" as the beginning of "Time's Up" is very similar to certain parts of "Chateau."

[Gokukillaah]

Probably alone in this but this sounds too desperate. Neo was never really exerting himself against these vampire things.  Chateau gives the impression that all this asskicking is just a formality. This sounds like he's fighting for his life.

That just wasn't the case.

[CorriTimigan]

Without the sound effects to distract me, I finally appreciate how awesome that kick was at 0:10!

[RichardKleiner]

You know, so many directors and producers go for techno music because it sounds cool, but when you want music that really heightens the drama, the orchestra works infinitely better.

While I found both cues good, Rob Dougan's track is better suited for montages and trailers, and Don Davis' works better for continuous sequences.

[harsh77]

This works so much better than the final film version. Amazing scoring.

[ScottyMcGeester]

This would have been more fitting for a chase scene or a softer fight scene. Maybe with just swords? Still, it sounds wonderful. Where did you get this? Can I have it? x3

[Rabbitto09]

It's a beautiful track but so NOT fitting this scene. Im glad they chose Rob since this scene just required some more spice!

Dont get me wrong, I love Don Davis but his music is mostly soft with alot of trumpets etc.(the orchestra's are quite loud though) but it just needed some techno shizzle to make this thing work :D

[DrewCameron]

Also, I prefer this to the final music.

[VampiraJen]

could never decide whether the bad guy in white is a man or a woman

[DrewCameron]

It's a guy. I thought it was a woman, but its the guy who made up a lot of the moves in the fights.

[fish2moose]

i loved the techno theme the brothers went with but i think Davis's original score captured the depth and scope of the sequences, this piece is just so dark compared to what they actually went with. wish i could hear this music with the sound effects

[Iheartnihon]

I'm kinda glad they changed it...the newer version is more hyped.

[Maj0ra]

I keep finding this random ass Harry Potter shit. I have no clue where I can find it, Pooptart.

[Pooptart19]

The track I am talking about I don't think was ever on the official Reloaded soundtrack. "Double Trouble" happens to be the name of the track in the "complete score" version I have. And yes, "Double Trouble" is also the title of the song from Harry Potter & the Prisoner of Azkaban.

[Maj0ra]

I want to DL all the soundracks too. I was wondering if ANYONE knows the song when Morpehues fights the twin things in the garage. I like that whole little part

[Pooptart19]

The track is called "Double Trouble." I have it but it is without the techno.

[KotORMusicCollection]

Oh, that can be fixed, I think. Can you put it up? The music was modified with a beat from one of the songs included in the album.

[Pooptart19]

I may just put it up. : )

[dinoapla2]

prefiero la de la pelicula, esta no combina, parece un poco Disney, lo unico que mantubieron de esta fue el final cuando meroviengio se va

[crowsharp]

sorry I still prefer the Rob Dougan version

[Pooptart19]

Me too. I think it works better for this scene.

[KotORMusicCollection]

I do think that the Wachowskis cheated Don Davis and the musical complexity of their own films by using Dougan's track. Just listen to the rest of the music that plays in the other scenes in the Chateau, and the fight scene in club Hel. They all correspond to this track. So maybe Dougan's track worked better for this scene, But Davis's track worked better for the movies as a whole.

[Pooptart19]

Yeah, I like both tracks and of course I love listening to Davis' music for the Matrix films.

: )

[OneGuyToRuleThemAll]

An excellent piece. I now find myself enjoying this more than Rob Dougan's track.

[amysaurus07]

Love this stuff! You have such a good taste in cinematic music!

[Pooptart19]

Thanks Amz. I actually have the complete scores to all 3 movies. Each score is almost 2 hours long and I LOVE IT. Just tell me of a score from some movie and I'll see if I can get it. Btw, I was able to get the missing track I was looking for from Matilda, it wasn't too big of a deal, but I HAD to get the missing track, so I I'll make you a CD soon.

: )

[amysaurus07]

YAY! Thanks XD
