Apocalypse now 1979 Blade runner 1982 Terminator 1984 Dune 1984 I was in my 20's, fascinated by these movies and their soundtracks ! No nostalgia, just awesome memories. Thank for sharing this soundtrack.
Same here. I loved Apocalypse Now in 1979, when I was 17. And I enjoyed Dune in 1984. Watched it several times since. I'm watching it all over again before it leaves Netflix in September 2023, and I appreciate it more now that before. And I love this piece of music from it.
I was born in 79 and 4 in 84" 12/12/79 so I watched this with my dad who was the cable guy for rte he hooked up the whole of Dublin 10 and there was peace 😌⚡🙌🤓🇮🇪
Bro I was watching the extended cut of dune 1984 to specifically hear this theme and learn more about the context but its not even in it! And if that's not enough, the movie sucks too. Denni's good, lynch's bad.
@@trueromani7262 There is a fan edit on YT of Dune 1984 that adds in loads of cut scenes and lost footage. There is also added dialogue to flesh everything out. It's like the version David Lynch wanted to release. It's the most complete version out.
My favorite soundtrack of all time, it resonates with me like nothing else , it’s not meant to be ‘spa’ sounds to just relax to but more of a deep feeling it invokes which can be sadness, longing, awe of the universe. It’s meant to take the mind to places we might fear or refuse to see, vulnerability can be a good thing if we accept it. And maybe learn something about ourselves along the way
parts of the Zimmer soundtrack had hints of the 1984 soundtrack... so I kept expecting to hear it, and was sadly disappointed. There is no comparison... I searched for years to find the 1984 dune soundtrack in stores.... I only had a tape recording I made from a record I borrowed from the library. Oddly enough, I listened to the tape recording so much, I missed hearing the the little ticks from the record recording mixed in with the soundtrack when I would listen to the CD. I really hope someone re scores the new Dune with the 1984 soundtrack if possible. Best of both worlds.
Agreed the 1984 music is wonderful glorious and also to me evokes the terrifying vastness and mystery of the universe Listen and let yourself drift through eternity Genius
When this music started in the film it was like it was making me think of prophets from the Bible like lynch set it up with eno to hit like something new you recognize as familiar. Like the total insane power of being chosen by destiny to be the messiah of a people is such a crazy thing that this weird eerie foreboding and scary music is the only way to communicate that power coming to fruition.
I didn't realize just how much I liked Brian Eno until I found out he wrote this Prophecy theme. I've watched the original Dune movie so many times and, to this day, this theme is still mesmerizing to listen to and adds so much depth and fascination to Paul's messianic destiny. Just beautiful and timeless.
"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." ~ Frank Herbert
It was used by Troika for a post-apoc game that was never developed. They made a demo using this theme and the track fit like a velvet glove (th-cam.com/video/NvgSGxNTADI/w-d-xo.html). I think I want this track to be played at my funeral, together with Rhubarb by Aphex Twin. I want everyone to feel bad and cry their guts out. I'm worthy.
I love this theme. It captures the universe of Arrakis (Dune). It’s dreamy and eerie maybe even beautiful. A great piece of work by Brian Eno he definitely captures the whole atmosphere of it and the concept in general.
I'll miss the sea, but a person needs new experiences. They jar something deep inside, allowing him to grow. Without change something sleeps inside us, and seldom awakens. The sleeper must awaken.
i agree, moving away from the coast, i remember this , having said that, if you have ever been taken away from the shore, you will empathise with the atreides
@@Tommii38 you are looking at it from the wrong perspective. You have to look at it from a Lynch perspective. He tries to bury into your subconscious, which he does really well in this version of Dune.
100%. I absolutely love Dune 1984. I can watch Dune 1984 a million times and never tire of it. Lynch captured Dune's weirdness arguably better than Denis Villeneuve's version.
I live 20 Minutes away from the NAMIB DESERT/NAMIBIA.....when I listened to this Song right in the Dunes,I SWEAR I saw WORMSIGNS !!!! (Greatings from Swakopmund)
They were grossed out by the, let's say, earthier elements. It requires a higher sensibility that sees the beauty of meaning even in the arbitrarily meaningless and disgusting. Furthermore, one comes to appreciate the contrasts Lynch was trying to portray aesthetically. Lastly, there remains a camp of people who simply do not get it at all. Why? Because Dune is a religious movie that rests on certain philosophical premises that you can't understand if you weren't raised with them. For example, the people of the religious traditions that make sense out of Lynch's actual messianic Muad'dib (very very different from Herbert's largely politically fraudulent Muad'dib) are used to thinking about life as, 1) evolutionary, that humanity is evolving teleologically; and 2) that the human being is evolving toward divinity -- the convergence of the will with the natural laws of nature. This is an easy leap for someone raised in a Christian environment with the god-man Jesus archetype everywhere in their lives, it is even easier when you superimpose that image on a multicultural scientific society much concerned with universality and science fiction and material possibilities and progress. And yet even easier when you combine that with a sense of totally comprehensive natural destiny imparted by a meditative practice. Well, that was America in 1984, and it was David Lynch's deep personal experience, and those are the cultural prerequisites to understand the film. I have watched the movie with adult people who literally asked at the end, "How did he make it rain?!" They don't know what they don't know.
It's not a mystery it's a bad film. It murders the story of Dune. The film opens with a wall of text and multiple inner monologues. That's completely mental. Not even the director likes it. It's visually wonderful though.
The longer directors cut that's four hours long is the best!!! They should have made this into two movies, movie exec's are sooooo stupid. Best Lynch ever..... He really did this story justice.
@@Yiroooo the movie for its time was very good but many of the interesting parts for depth of characters were not done unfortunately a big loser at the box office I truly doubt anyone currently worldwide could do better dialogue isn't governing filmmaking anymore cgi is tragically the best sci-fi with complex characters and action scenes is EXPANSE
Legend has it he did but it was replaced by Toto's score, there are some bits of music in the film not composed by Toto that sound very similar to Brian's work, it's believed to be from that score.
Used to watch this movie a lot with my father before he passed away. Naturally when I listen to this now it makes me feel sad plus the current situation as well only amplifies that feeling of sadness.
Our memories etched into song is such an incredible ability. Your father will always be with you because music can never be taken away from us. This made me cry reading your words and I want you to know how touching it was for you to share such a raw memory paired with emotion.
My father was the one who gave me the book. And then VHS with the movie. He's gone now for two years, but his water is still with me. Sending virtual hug and hold on... they never really leave. One day we'll meet again.
@@cassattack "....music can never be taken away from us." This is sooooo true. My mother suffered with dementia for years. She lost skills, ability to perform tasks, names and faces, eventually even the ability to form coherent sentences, then her vocabulary was reduced to a three year old's. But MUSIC! A lifetime of music listening, playing and appreciating was literally bonded in her essence so well that it was the only thing not lost. Our last visit was Christmas Day. We took family photos and sang Christmas songs and played classical music. She knew all the verses better than me, still. She passed in January, and the music and memories are forever.
I was lying in the Desert listening to this and fell asleep. Upon awakening I found myself covered in Sand Trout. My Skin is not my own. I burrowed deep into the Sand and dreamed of Past, Present and Future Times for the rest of Eternity.
So much I love about this movie that keeps bringing me back. Imagine the solar system in 30,000 years if we manage to live off world! Races of people forging their own cultures and evolving separately. Eno encapsulates the sheer vastness of space and the suffering of the future generations.
That moment the bassiness (can't think of a better term) comes in at 0:47 gives me shivers and enraptures me, especially while listening with quality headphones
@@snowmansid I've actually listened to a few of their songs, nowhere near all, I know 5 I think, and thanks for telling me of the bad ones, I sometimes get discouraged or convinced that the music is not for me. Thanks :D
Dune makes me feel so small. Just the ideas behind it, the philosophy, it warps my mind. This music perfectly conveys that floating feeling, my own lack of understanding.
I find it hard to believe that Dune was written in the 60's. It looks to the future on so many levels and covers such a wide expanse in the human story. Frank Herbert must have been a visionary genius no less!!
He extrapolated the political Situation on Earth. So for nearly everything in Dune there is a real World Counterpart. One of the Things that amazed me though was his Idea about Mentats - so he forsaw that Robots/AI will be developed, will stage a War against Humanity, Humanity will win that War (kinda the Scenario from Terminator) and all sorts of AI will be forbidden afterwards so Humans have to become as competent in Mathematics as AI was before... I thought for a while if he is in the same League as a SciFi-Prophet as Philip K. Dick. While he surely had an unusual Brain and great Thoughts and was highly intelligent he might have not forseen the Future like Dick did. So I value his Work very high yet Dick seems to be the greater Prophet to me.
Carlos Fandango. He was most definitely operating on a higher level than most of us but is smart enough to dumb himself down enough to write something like we mere mortals can understand. You should just read the book man. Before the movie
@@Ezekielepharcelis It's not that simplifies. There was no war against the machines Terminator or even Matrix style . Our technology has simply reached a tipping point where we were really no longer needed for much of anything so upon becoming a type unnecessary, redundant afterthought to our technology, humanity began to fall into a state of complete apathy but lucky for humanity a segment of humanity saw what was happening, that being human extinction and what started as a philosophical, then political agenda exploded into violence and bloodshed.The Buliterian Jihad, the fanatics & their cause spread throughout the imperium and when it was all over the fanatics had won and said there's going to be new commandments if you will. The 1st and biggest, NO THINKING MACHINES. No A I. Which negated an enormous amount of our technology, including the highly advanced supercomputers that made the nano second course corrections on any given jump through space time or when they 'folded' space. Without that our empire would be lost, isolated from one another by vast distances of space. I mean you could chance it. We had already created the engine that did the actual space travel but it fell to computers to get us there safe. Without those computers you might run into a sun or some great rock in space
@@Ezekielepharcelis There's one gigantic, notable exception though, and I love what Phillip k. dick did for scifi but most of his work takes place in s not too distant future that is just a nudge or 2 from where we're at now. In the world of Dune we were supposed to have passed the technological state of most of the cyberpunk era literally thousands of years before the events of Dune rolls around. Herbert isn't writing about the year 2049 or 2160 . Herbert is writing about the year 10,1 91 and beyond. That's a pretty big difference
For me the old adaptation is a true masterpiece in all levels. When Lynch and Eno join their artistic minds and create this unforgettable rare moments while you simply watch a film ..
After seeing some of the comments below, I think many of Dune's viewers got the point. And this theme, from Brian Eno, is one of the most mystical/spiritual sounding pieces. It always brings tears to my eyes, as if I am listening to a lost song from ancient of ancient times.
"Tolerating oneself can be the hardest task in the universe" or so is what Duncan Idahos ghola repeated to Alia after saying it to Paul. For me this piece seems to reflect Pauls (and Alias) thought process of being trapped in the state of mind of knowing that no one can ever really understand you.
I recorded this on a shitty cassette player off of Hearts of Space in, I dunno, 84 or 85 on a Sunday night? And went to sleep listening to it until I was old enough to drive. It's one of the top tracks on "The Soundtrack of My Life."
Hearts of Space. Was that in the same period as that other program, "Musical Starstreams"? I had a hard time with that show every time the host/announcer Forest came on with his ridiculous electronically manipulated voice. I kept asking, "Why?"
Africa and into Dakar where I felt ALIVE. Every time I hear this music it takes me back to then, a time where I felt so free from anything ever, a feeling of peace and tranquillity and more that is just indescribable in words, I am so happy to experience it with my best buddy, something that we will take to the heavens and beyond when our time is up. Live Life, Love Life...LIVE.
I just watched the new Dune - and I might be alone in my opinion - but I enjoyed the 1984 version more. One of the reasons for it was the music.... I get goosebumps everytime I listen to this masterpiece of a score.
I fancy both. I liked the way they paid tribute to the original but still managed to be original. Very effing cool. Too bad is half a movie only (the new version).
The Attack of the harkonnens on Arrakis was very bland in the 2021 version. There was no tension, no explanation on wats happening. The 1984 movie prepared the viewer to something bad gonna happen and i agree the score was way better than the 2021 one. Even if i am a huge fan of Hans Zimmer, this time maybe it was his worst work...at the end of the movie none of the music parts stayed in my head, compared to the gladiator which I believe it's his best work to date.
I agree, the first (1984) was better. Although the only gripe I had on it was the casting of Paul. It should have been someone younger. That was the only thing the new one (2021) got right!
it had been years since I saw Dune, and had forgotten how awesome the music was. Growing up listening to late night Ambient radio on Double J back then, this bring back so many memories The Sleeper has awoken.
Yep, the Ambient programme with Arnold Frollows on JJ .... it was the high point of the week, a couple of hours of Astral travelling every Sunday night. Loved it!
It was tripple J by the time I was listening to his brilliant ambient program. I live in the UK now but I'll never forget lying in my bed letting his selection wash over me.
brian eno is like vangelis in a sense, they are gifted with music and sound, they are the gods of the electronic sound..., this piece is so special, this music is the sound of arrakis desert.... you know that the spice giant worms are below you as you walk in the sand......
This is the film that deserves *not* to be lost or forgotten, even when the delayed-but-soon-expected one comes out. I'm sure it will be good. But *this* film from 1984, especially its music, should *not* be just cast aside! It was perfectly cast... *yes* including Kyle MacLachlan as Paul! {Look, he might not have looked *exactly* like he was 15 years old, like in the novel, but so what? He *did* look young enough to be a Duke's son, and he *did* act the role to absolute perfection.} And it was *also* perfectly scored. Who here can honestly say they remember much of anything from the music of that gawd-awful miniseries? *Either* of them? Yeah, well, not me either. I regard *this* 1984 production as one of the 10 best Science-Fiction films of all time; even with its two large flaws of 1.) The syrupy-sweet ending, ignoring Paul's anguish at his prescient knowledge of the bad things that would be done in his name, and 2.) It being almost impossible to take the Harkonnens seriously. It's still a fantastic film. Everything from the cinematography to the acting was otherwise splendid. Critics who disliked it were biased by their training and education. And I wouldn't change that for anything. They *have* to be educated in "the classics" to do their job properly. But that background makes them hopelessly biased against the entire genre of Sci-Fi, since it's oriented in the *other* direction, the future. Therefore, they should *never* be listened to when it comes to any work of that genre. Instead, refer to the counsel of true Science-Fiction fans. I do want to see the eventually-to-be-released updated movie. And I hope it's good, and that its music is good. But even if it's phenomenal, even if it's 10 times better than Director David Lynch's work from 1984, I *still* will always *also* want to steer peple towards *that* one every bit as much as this soon-expected one...or any other that may come after.
Timelord You're right in that many critics at the time, especially Gene Siskel, just didn't give the film negative reviews,they went far above and beyond their job description in their hatred for this film which tells me they had agendas. Be personal or financial or whatever, they had them. I loved this film when I was 11 or 12 & that was because I craved something more than Star Wars or Star Trek. I wanted hard sci fi, like ALIEN or
The production was a little bit cheesy, but the actors were superb. Kyle MacLachlan, Francesca Annis and Sean Young are perfect. Having read the book just before the film was released, I could have been disappointed, but I wasn't. The special effects were clearly behind, but it didn't matter too much because the actors' performances largely made up for it.
@@fixups6536 Actually some of the fx in the 1st hour were mind blowing. That shot of the entire House Atreides fucking with that massive heighliner was incredible and though dated now, those shield fx were actually one of the 1st digital cgi fx ever . Toward the end they were running out of money. I know 45 million was alot back in 84. Idk what it would be in today's dollars. My guess is something close to 110 to 125 million , but Villeneuve is getting 200 million to tell half the story. Quite a bit different situation.
I love Lynch’s version, yet it frustrates me at the same time, the first half is amazing, especially the set pieces. The second half feels like a highlights reel, the scenes are clipped and it feels like vital details are skipped over.
this music reminds me of the time i flew in a starship past Orion and the Tennhauser Gate, with moonbeams from Plexus bouncing off the iridium light waves.I was with a small crew including an alpha replicant called Roy Batty. He later escaped to Earth.
I was followed by an iridium light in central australia. It was about the size of a bowling ball but chrome. It would change directions like lightning and track your speed. Your story is great imagery imaginary however mine was not. The aborigines call the min min lights, I call it a vehicle from beyond earth.
This piece is just one of the (if not the) most powerful, yet ethereal art piece, and as said below he managed to say it all in one piece. Brian Eno is practically the inventor of Shimmer reverb, which he achieved by serializing around $30.000 of hardware. Now you can find excellent quality software shimmer reverb plugins (ex: Valhalla Shimmer), for fifty bucks... 😁
Grandiose, magical, mystical, cosmic, in a few musical phrases, Brian Eno, one of the most famous travelers in time and space, folds the universe for us and brings Arrakis to life before our eyes and in our hearts. Dune and its procession of cruelty, drama, and mortal splendors. Zimmer is so far behind that it almost becomes disloyal to try to compare them.
Apollo, atmospheres and soundtracks, is another gem by Eno. Klaus Schulze made an album inspired by and called Dune and a song called Frank Herbert in the album X.
It's fascinating to think Eno would have composed this right after, or maybe even during, his first time working with U2. That album, The Unforgettable Fire, was recorded ca. May-July 1984 (and released at the end of September/beginning of October). Dune came out in December 1984. The prophecy theme would most likely have come about between those two events
One of my favorite ambient pieces. Used to listen to this as a kid, playing the record (I still have it!), with my headphones on. So layered, dreamlike. Gives me a floating feeling...
@@JPJMando It’s a beautiful piece, don’t get me wrong, but it’s an ambient cinematic drone that repeats a theme and a narrow set of tones for 12 minutes. Tears in Rain is an orchestral synth masterpiece. The intricately arranged dynamics, musical progressions, diverse tone, and production quality are just on an other level entirely. Not even in the same universe. Emotional reaction to music is entirely subjective so I can’t compare them in that regard. Personally though, I find that this piece (along with lots of Enos music) gives me more of a zoned out and relaxed feeling while Tears in Rain has my eyes welling up for 3 straight minutes.
Greatest sci fi movie ever .. Epic ... Eno is the God of Ambient & Atmospheric music &.... Perhaps the most influential person in music the last 50 years
honestly this track is the best thing about the old Dune, whenever it kicks in the movie really becomes transcendent
totally agree
The new Dune is a shit WOKE. The OST of Hans Zimmer only is NOISE. The old Dune is better
@@Subversivo7 Surely
This captures the awe, the loneliness, the mystery, the haunting cosmic horror, and the very slight hope peeking through the infinite desolate abyss.
How y think it's desolate ,distance, that was addressed in its origins
All due respect to Hans Zimmer, I think Brian Eno's Prophecy Theme captures the spirit of the book better than anything in the new movie's score.
I agree
The new movie’s score is not memorable. Nothing-no part-stands out. Villaneuve should get the rights to this for the water of life scene.
I might be crazy, because I could swear I heard hints of the old main theme throughout the new Dune! or maybe my mind was filling the gap left by that bizarre throat chant the movie opened with

Enigmatic... Thought provoking... and profound...hauntingly beautiful as well...
One of the most fitting pieces of music to a film/scene ever.

@@estebanposadaduque6415 100%, this is also the perfect soundtrack to listen to whilst reading the book too!
Never could understand people's dislike for this movie.
many people have a limited ability to imagine alternatives that could exist elswhere, maybe, hopefully :))
They were grossed out by the, let's say, earthier elements. It requires a higher sensibility that sees the beauty of meaning even in the arbitrarily meaningless and disgusting. Furthermore, one comes to appreciate the contrasts Lynch was trying to portray aesthetically. Lastly, there remains a camp of people who simply do not get it at all. Why? Because Dune is a religious movie that rests on certain philosophical premises that you can't understand if you weren't raised with them. For example, the people of the religious traditions that make sense out of Lynch's actual messianic Muad'dib (very very different from Herbert's largely politically fraudulent Muad'dib) are used to thinking about life as, 1) evolutionary, that humanity is evolving teleologically; and 2) that the human being is evolving toward divinity -- the convergence of the will with the natural laws of nature. This is an easy leap for someone raised in a Christian environment with the god-man Jesus archetype everywhere in their lives, it is even easier when you superimpose that image on a multicultural scientific society much concerned with universality and science fiction and material possibilities and progress. And yet even easier when you combine that with a sense of totally comprehensive natural destiny imparted by a meditative practice. Well, that was America in 1984, and it was David Lynch's deep personal experience, and those are the cultural prerequisites to understand the film. I have watched the movie with adult people who literally asked at the end, "How did he make it rain?!" They don't know what they don't know.
@@kevbridges3387 Such as Gene Siskel, who also gave a thumbs down to Silence of the Lambs. Yikes.
It's not a mystery it's a bad film. It murders the story of Dune. The film opens with a wall of text and multiple inner monologues. That's completely mental. Not even the director likes it. It's visually wonderful though.
@@GrimJackal IMHO it's a better story than the novels, and inner dialogue storytelling is excellent.
Ce morceau de Brian Eno pour Dune reflète parfaitement le voyage dans la solitude de l'univers.
One of the most underrated sci-fi movies ever made. So good
The movie itself wasn't really good. Let's hope Villeneuve makes something out of this masterpiece
The longer directors cut that's four hours long is the best!!! They should have made this into two movies, movie exec's are sooooo stupid. Best Lynch ever..... He really did this story justice.
@@spiritwardiaries They are making it into 2 movies and its being done by Denis Villeneuve so its in good hands.
@@Yiroooo like it reads below...the 4 hour version is a whole different experience. ..
@@Yiroooo
the movie for its time was very good
but many of the interesting parts for depth of characters were not done unfortunately
a big loser at the box office
I truly doubt anyone currently worldwide could do better
dialogue isn't governing filmmaking anymore cgi is tragically
the best sci-fi with complex characters and action scenes is EXPANSE
By far the best track out of all the movies, and Hans Zimmer knocked it out of the park for the new ones
I really, *really* hope Zimmer makes use of this track (a cover likely) for Part Three, it’s just *gotta happen.*
The soundtrack held the movie together and elevated Dune to an ethereal mystique place in cinema.
Friggin Brian Eno.
Brian Eno should have been asked to compose the entire soundtrack of DUNE.
This piece is PERFECT for the film!
TOTO composed as well a wonderful soundtrack masterpiece
Legend has it he did but it was replaced by Toto's score, there are some bits of music in the film not composed by Toto that sound very similar to Brian's work, it's believed to be from that score.
this is perhaps the most calming and comforting piece of music ive heard. its like a breathing, deeply and slowly
Transcendental. I am in awe of this music and it’s impact on my thoughts, soul and spirit.
Brian Eno once again the greatest of all time, no one can make soundtracks as beautiful and chilling as this master
Used to watch this movie a lot with my father before he passed away. Naturally when I listen to this now it makes me feel sad plus the current situation as well only amplifies that feeling of sadness.
Our memories etched into song is such an incredible ability. Your father will always be with you because music can never be taken away from us. This made me cry reading your words and I want you to know how touching it was for you to share such a raw memory paired with emotion.
@@cassattack Thank you for your warm kind words :)
My father was the one who gave me the book. And then VHS with the movie. He's gone now for two years, but his water is still with me. Sending virtual hug and hold on... they never really leave. One day we'll meet again.
@@cassattack "....music can never be taken away from us."
This is sooooo true. My mother suffered with dementia for years. She lost skills, ability to perform tasks, names and faces, eventually even the ability to form coherent sentences, then her vocabulary was reduced to a three year old's. But MUSIC! A lifetime of music listening, playing and appreciating was literally bonded in her essence so well that it was the only thing not lost.
Our last visit was Christmas Day. We took family photos and sang Christmas songs and played classical music. She knew all the verses better than me, still. She passed in January, and the music and memories are forever.
@@vendingdudes Such a beautiful life she had, friend. What a great way to remeber her too.
Absolutely majestic! The soundscape created here is beyond comprehension!
Brian Eno 's music is always so beautiful, evocative and atmospheric! I've listened to the new album which is amazing.
I was lying in the Desert listening to this and fell asleep.
Upon awakening I found myself covered in Sand Trout.
My Skin is not my own.
I burrowed deep into the Sand and dreamed of Past, Present and Future Times for the rest of Eternity.
"FATHER, THE SLEEPER MUST AWAKEN!"
So much I love about this movie that keeps bringing me back. Imagine the solar system in 30,000 years if we manage to live off world! Races of people forging their own cultures and evolving separately. Eno encapsulates the sheer vastness of space and the suffering of the future generations.
That moment the bassiness (can't think of a better term) comes in at 0:47 gives me shivers and enraptures me, especially while listening with quality headphones
When I close my eyes and listen to this, I can feel myself travelling through space without moving.
THIS is the SPICE.
Haunting. I love this type of stuff especially while driving late at night or raining.
Do you know any other types of songs that you would put into this genre? O:
probably some church shit
@@dinosaurcj Tangerine Dream produced some good tracks, just need to look between the bad ones.
@@snowmansid I've actually listened to a few of their songs, nowhere near all, I know 5 I think, and thanks for telling me of the bad ones, I sometimes get discouraged or convinced that the music is not for me. Thanks :D
@@snowmansid Out of curiosity, what are your thoughts on "The Big Sleep in Search of Hades - Stratosfear" ?
My wife and will be watching the movie again, cant get enough. the music is sureal.
This was way way better than thr modern soundtrack..
Dune makes me feel so small. Just the ideas behind it, the philosophy, it warps my mind. This music perfectly conveys that floating feeling, my own lack of understanding.
I find it hard to believe that Dune was written in the 60's. It looks to the future on so many levels and covers such a wide expanse in the human story. Frank Herbert must have been a visionary genius no less!!
He extrapolated the political Situation on Earth. So for nearly everything in Dune there is a real World Counterpart. One of the Things that amazed me though was his Idea about Mentats - so he forsaw that Robots/AI will be developed, will stage a War against Humanity, Humanity will win that War (kinda the Scenario from Terminator) and all sorts of AI will be forbidden afterwards so Humans have to become as competent in Mathematics as AI was before...
I thought for a while if he is in the same League as a SciFi-Prophet as Philip K. Dick. While he surely had an unusual Brain and great Thoughts and was highly intelligent he might have not forseen the Future like Dick did. So I value his Work very high yet Dick seems to be the greater Prophet to me.
Carlos Fandango. He was most definitely operating on a higher level than most of us but is smart enough to dumb himself down enough to write something like we mere mortals can understand. You should just read the book man. Before the movie
@@michaelscott7916 i only listened to the audiobook, but oh boi was it a ride. its just so full of wisdom
@@Ezekielepharcelis It's not that simplifies. There was no war against the machines Terminator or even Matrix style . Our technology has simply reached a tipping point where we were really no longer needed for much of anything so upon becoming a type unnecessary, redundant afterthought to our technology, humanity began to fall into a state of complete apathy but lucky for humanity a segment of humanity saw what was happening, that being human extinction and what started as a philosophical, then political agenda exploded into violence and bloodshed.The Buliterian Jihad, the fanatics & their cause spread throughout the imperium and when it was all over the fanatics had won and said there's going to be new commandments if you will. The 1st and biggest, NO THINKING MACHINES. No A I. Which negated an enormous amount of our technology, including the highly advanced supercomputers that made the nano second course corrections on any given jump through space time or when they 'folded' space. Without that our empire would be lost, isolated from one another by vast distances of space. I mean you could chance it. We had already created the engine that did the actual space travel but it fell to computers to get us there safe. Without those computers you might run into a sun or some great rock in space
@@Ezekielepharcelis There's one gigantic, notable exception though, and I love what Phillip k. dick did for scifi but most of his work takes place in s not too distant future that is just a nudge or 2 from where we're at now. In the world of Dune we were supposed to have passed the technological state of most of the cyberpunk era literally thousands of years before the events of Dune rolls around. Herbert isn't writing about the year 2049 or 2160 . Herbert is writing about the year 10,1 91 and beyond. That's a pretty big difference
This is so beautiful and timeless.
For me the old adaptation is a true masterpiece in all levels. When Lynch and Eno join their artistic minds and create this unforgettable rare moments while you simply watch a film ..
Experiencing original Dune and Prophecy Theme, as a young boy all those years ago, had a profound impact on me, almost as the spice itself.
This movie made me want to become the Quizat Hadarat! And this beautiful tune inspired me to believe that it was possible!
Listening this after seeing Dune 2.
Bro... that was apotheosic 😭
Damn, I had to search the meaning for that word. I AGREE
Extraordinary Eno work, I've listened many many times; it has unexpected melodic-harmonic movement yet completely inevitable...
After seeing some of the comments below, I think many of Dune's viewers got the point. And this theme, from Brian Eno, is one of the most mystical/spiritual sounding pieces. It always brings tears to my eyes, as if I am listening to a lost song from ancient of ancient times.
So true
This is a world class piece.
with Brian Eno soundscape sci fi is a pleasure to travel with , the fear is etherised
Ancient Music from 10,000 years into the Future.
@@RIXRADvidz Same feelings
Goosebumps!
"Tolerating oneself can be the hardest task in the universe" or so is what Duncan Idahos ghola repeated to Alia after saying it to Paul. For me this piece seems to reflect Pauls (and Alias) thought process of being trapped in the state of mind of knowing that no one can ever really understand you.
I recorded this on a shitty cassette player off of Hearts of Space in, I dunno, 84 or 85 on a Sunday night? And went to sleep listening to it until I was old enough to drive. It's one of the top tracks on "The Soundtrack of My Life."
Hearts of Space. Was that in the same period as that other program, "Musical Starstreams"?
I had a hard time with that show every time the host/announcer Forest came on with his ridiculous electronically manipulated voice. I kept asking, "Why?"
Same here, I still have the tape!
Genuinely one of the best pieces of music ever created imo.
Africa and into Dakar where I felt ALIVE.
Every time I hear this music it takes me back to then, a time where I felt so free from anything ever, a feeling of peace and tranquillity and more that is just indescribable in words, I am so happy to experience it with my best buddy, something that we will take to the heavens and beyond when our time is up. Live Life, Love Life...LIVE.
I just watched the new Dune - and I might be alone in my opinion - but I enjoyed the 1984 version more. One of the reasons for it was the music.... I get goosebumps everytime I listen to this masterpiece of a score.
I fancy both. I liked the way they paid tribute to the original but still managed to be original. Very effing cool. Too bad is half a movie only (the new version).
You are not alone brother
The Attack of the harkonnens on Arrakis was very bland in the 2021 version. There was no tension, no explanation on wats happening. The 1984 movie prepared the viewer to something bad gonna happen and i agree the score was way better than the 2021 one. Even if i am a huge fan of Hans Zimmer, this time maybe it was his worst work...at the end of the movie none of the music parts stayed in my head, compared to the gladiator which I believe it's his best work to date.
I agree, the first (1984) was better.
Although the only gripe I had on it was the casting of Paul. It should have been someone younger. That was the only thing the new one (2021) got right!
@@tejasjo "the first (1984) was better." Lynch would disagree with that, he hated his movie.
I was truly hoping this piece of music was in the new Dune film.
Unfortunately not.
Such a masterpiece 👏
I join your with a wish they use this theme in new version. Maybe in Part 2? Lets hope. :)
it had been years since I saw Dune, and had forgotten how awesome the music was.
Growing up listening to late night Ambient radio on Double J back then, this bring back so many memories The Sleeper has awoken.
Yep, the Ambient programme with Arnold Frollows on JJ .... it was the high point of the week, a couple of hours of Astral travelling every Sunday night. Loved it!
@@Maclabhruinn wow, two other people who know and remember this! You are awesome!

It was tripple J by the time I was listening to his brilliant ambient program.
I live in the UK now but I'll never forget lying in my bed letting his selection wash over me.
"We shall kill until no Harkonnen breathes Arakeen air."
this is such a spiritual piece. stunning, something that makes you wander the universe and meaning of life
brian eno is like vangelis in a sense, they are gifted with music and sound, they are the gods of the electronic sound..., this piece is so special, this music is the sound of arrakis desert.... you know that the spice giant worms are below you as you walk in the sand......
This is the film that deserves *not* to be lost or forgotten, even when the delayed-but-soon-expected one comes out. I'm sure it will be good. But *this* film from 1984, especially its music, should *not* be just cast aside! It was perfectly cast... *yes* including Kyle MacLachlan as Paul! {Look, he might not have looked *exactly* like he was 15 years old, like in the novel, but so what? He *did* look young enough to be a Duke's son, and he *did* act the role to absolute perfection.} And it was *also* perfectly scored. Who here can honestly say they remember much of anything from the music of that gawd-awful miniseries? *Either* of them? Yeah, well, not me either.
I regard *this* 1984 production as one of the 10 best Science-Fiction films of all time; even with its two large flaws of 1.) The syrupy-sweet ending, ignoring Paul's anguish at his prescient knowledge of the bad things that would be done in his name, and 2.) It being almost impossible to take the Harkonnens seriously. It's still a fantastic film. Everything from the cinematography to the acting was otherwise splendid. Critics who disliked it were biased by their training and education. And I wouldn't change that for anything. They *have* to be educated in "the classics" to do their job properly. But that background makes them hopelessly biased against the entire genre of Sci-Fi, since it's oriented in the *other* direction, the future. Therefore, they should *never* be listened to when it comes to any work of that genre. Instead, refer to the counsel of true Science-Fiction fans.
I do want to see the eventually-to-be-released updated movie. And I hope it's good, and that its music is good. But even if it's phenomenal, even if it's 10 times better than Director David Lynch's work from 1984, I *still* will always *also* want to steer peple towards *that* one every bit as much as this soon-expected one...or any other that may come after.
Timelord You're right in that many critics at the time, especially Gene Siskel, just didn't give the film negative reviews,they went far above and beyond their job description in their hatred for this film which tells me they had agendas. Be personal or financial or whatever, they had them. I loved this film when I was 11 or 12 & that was because I craved something more than Star Wars or Star Trek. I wanted hard sci fi, like ALIEN or
Look for the SpiceDiver's DUNE REDUX fan edit. It will blow your mind!
The production was a little bit cheesy, but the actors were superb. Kyle MacLachlan, Francesca Annis and Sean Young are perfect. Having read the book just before the film was released, I could have been disappointed, but I wasn't. The special effects were clearly behind, but it didn't matter too much because the actors' performances largely made up for it.
@@fixups6536 Actually some of the fx in the 1st hour were mind blowing. That shot of the entire House Atreides fucking with that massive heighliner was incredible and though dated now, those shield fx were actually one of the 1st digital cgi fx ever . Toward the end they were running out of money. I know 45 million was alot back in 84. Idk what it would be in today's dollars. My guess is something close to 110 to 125 million , but Villeneuve is getting 200 million to tell half the story. Quite a bit different situation.
I love Lynch’s version, yet it frustrates me at the same time, the first half is amazing, especially the set pieces. The second half feels like a highlights reel, the scenes are clipped and it feels like vital details are skipped over.
ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНАЯ КОМПОЗИЦИЯ !!!!!!! БРАВО !!!!!!!
This music will be eternal.
this music reminds me of the time i flew in a starship past Orion and the Tennhauser Gate, with moonbeams from Plexus bouncing off the iridium light waves.I was with a small crew including an alpha replicant called Roy Batty. He later escaped to Earth.
I wonder what happened to him
I was followed by an iridium light in central australia. It was about the size of a bowling ball but chrome. It would change directions like lightning and track your speed. Your story is great imagery imaginary however mine was not. The aborigines call the min min lights, I call it a vehicle from beyond earth.

Masterpiece the film
Masterpiece the theme
One of my favorite pieces of music ever. Don't underestimate
One of the most beautiful themes ever 🧡... I love reading the Dune book while listening to this and also great for relaxation ☺.
I listen to it also while reading. It complements some of the chapters in Dune so well
This piece is just one of the (if not the) most powerful, yet ethereal art piece, and as said below he managed to say it all in one piece. Brian Eno is practically the inventor of Shimmer reverb, which he achieved by serializing around $30.000 of hardware. Now you can find excellent quality software shimmer reverb plugins (ex: Valhalla Shimmer), for fifty bucks... 😁
The music must flow!

Yes ,agreed comin from a atheist

The power of sound
This is an epic movie great cast, visually very realistic raw... nice music, great story
Legendary song for a legendary movie!
Grandiose, magical, mystical, cosmic, in a few musical phrases, Brian Eno, one of the most famous travelers in time and space, folds the universe for us and brings Arrakis to life before our eyes and in our hearts. Dune and its procession of cruelty, drama, and mortal splendors. Zimmer is so far behind that it almost becomes disloyal to try to compare them.
Apollo, atmospheres and soundtracks, is another gem by Eno.
Klaus Schulze made an album inspired by and called Dune and a song called Frank Herbert in the album X.
Yes, this very much reminds me of parts of Apollo.
This is a stunningly beautiful piece of music. Absolutely love it.
good man ,you have a good taste in music
He who controls the spice controls the universe.🪐
Loved this movie. No one else could have carried off the theme so well.
matt, straight to the point - ahead of time - generations!
this sound make me nostalgic from a time for ever disapears .... ahhh the 80's
It's fascinating to think Eno would have composed this right after, or maybe even during, his first time working with U2. That album, The Unforgettable Fire, was recorded ca. May-July 1984 (and released at the end of September/beginning of October). Dune came out in December 1984. The prophecy theme would most likely have come about between those two events
Timeless ... and always inspiring .
This song gives me the Weirding Way!!
One of my favorite ambient pieces. Used to listen to this as a kid, playing the record (I still have it!), with my headphones on. So layered, dreamlike. Gives me a floating feeling...
Try his Apollo, atmospheres album.
SvenTviking yeah I know, thanks. Do you know The Pearl, with Harold Budd? Amazing...

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.....
Not even comparable..
@@R3VICTION State why.
@@JPJMando It’s a beautiful piece, don’t get me wrong, but it’s an ambient cinematic drone that repeats a theme and a narrow set of tones for 12 minutes. Tears in Rain is an orchestral synth masterpiece. The intricately arranged dynamics, musical progressions, diverse tone, and production quality are just on an other level entirely. Not even in the same universe.
Emotional reaction to music is entirely subjective so I can’t compare them in that regard. Personally though, I find that this piece (along with lots of Enos music) gives me more of a zoned out and relaxed feeling while Tears in Rain has my eyes welling up for 3 straight minutes.
Brian Eno is a genius. No two ways about it.
It is rumored that Eno did an entire score for the movie, but it was all tossed out except for this bit.
Absolutely beautiful piece of music. Both evocative and serene in equal measure.
Still one of my favorites.
A timeless classic!!!
These frequencies align us with a higher vibration...
Greatest sci fi movie ever .. Epic ... Eno is the God of Ambient & Atmospheric music &.... Perhaps the most influential person in music the last 50 years
