Thank you very much!

I have to agree with you. Originally upon hearing the new TCI arrangement I was elated at the return of the bridge, but after living with this theme for a year and a half, I'm starting to downright
hate it. It's
way too bombastically orchestral, and the timing (and in fact the whole mix) feels awfully imprecise to me. I'd much prefer more balance between the orchestra and the electronic elements -- perhaps 60/40, instead of the more 90/10 thing he has going on right now. And I really wish the orchestra would calm down a little bit! They're not supposed to be so enthusiastic... dark and mysterious would be so much better.

Not Murray Gold's fault, but again, I agree with you -- very incompetently done. They could probably give it to Murray to do and he would finish it in the same amount of time but it would sound a lot better.

I'll try and get on this for you tonight when I'm home. If not, then certainly in the next couple of days.
