A month-long journey to find the best music-streaming service


The biggest ongoing problem in my technological life is when, where, and how to easily listen to music. There are two reasons why this is a problem: 1) music is a vital part of my life — I need a steady stream of new tracks and artists to listen to, and I need to be able to cue up my old favorite songs at crucial moments — and 2) I strongly suspect there is no perfect way to listen to music.

Composer Hans Zimmer: 'music is not the ugly stepsister of cinematography anymore' | The Verge

Composer Hans Zimmer: 'music is not the ugly stepsister of cinematography anymore' | The Verge | Soundtrack | Scoop.it

Hans Zimmer has scored a lot of movies over the last 29 years, even winning an Academy Award for The Lion King, but in recent years he's been most closely tied to producer and director Christopher Nolan's films. In particular, his score for Inception was seen as one of his best works, with its fusion of electronic effects and strings that were particularly well-suited to Nolan's dream world. The collaboration between Nolan and Zimmer continued with Man of Steel, and Zimmer took to Reddit today to answer questions in an AMA session ahead of the movie's release this Friday.

Christopher Coleman's insight:

"Ugly step-sister?"  It never was, my dear Mr. Zimmer.  It never was.
