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.

Bombast and enthusiasm are
good.
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.

Agreed. The butchery at the end of Human Nature is the worst so far I think...closely followed by Rise of the Cybermen. And of course The Runaway Bride was hardly perfection...etc.
