Klaus Badelt歌手简介:
Klaus Badelt,德国人,2000年被他的老乡Hans Zimmer看中并带到了好莱坞,在Hans的MV工作室工作,协助Hans完成了《The Pledge 誓言》、《Hannibal 汉尼伯》、《Invincible 纳粹制造》等电影的配乐。2002年,Klaus Badelt第一次独立完成了电影《The Time Machine》的配乐,依靠一曲曲气势磅礴的乐曲,一鸣惊人,确立了自己在好赖坞的地位。随后,Klaus Badelt再接再厉,在近几年里谱写了《K-19: The Widowmaker》、《The Recruit》、《Pirates of the Caribbean》、《Constantine》《无极》以及今年的《Poseidon 新海神号》。
Klaus Badelt 是近年来电影配乐的有名作曲家,先后为电影 Pearl Harbor(珍珠港), Hannibal(汉尼拔), Mission: Impossible II(不可能的任务2)以及 Gladiator(神鬼战士)配乐。可谓是大有来头。The Time Machine 的 OST 可以说是非常的雄伟壮阔,有些地方可以用惊天动地来形容(动态很大)。是那种典型的好莱坞管弦乐风格,这也继承了 Klaus Badelt 作曲的风格。比如 Gladiator(神鬼战士)和 Pearl Harbor(珍珠港),第一首曲子 01.Professor Alexander Hartdegen 一上来就是气势恢宏的法国号群奏。从 Gladiator和The Time Machine 这两张 OST 来看,Klaus Badelt 不但擅长管弦乐的配器,而且擅长穿插民族乐器,特别是打击乐。另外,人声合唱也是这两张专辑的一大两点,不过这点看来在 The Time Machine OST 裏表现得尤为突出,听听 08.Eloi 和 15.God Speed 就知道了,洒脱而感人肺腑的旋律简直让人欲罢不能...整个配乐基本上是围绕两个旋律在进行,一个是 01 中就可以听到那段法国号群奏的旋律,另一个就是 08.Eloi 中的女声合唱实在让人动容。整张 CD 音质应该非常好,用来做试音碟都绰绰有余了。另外,提醒大家一下,听 07.Time Traval 的时候小心不要被吓到了。
