They gave Farwell Aragog at 7, and it was amazing. Sad too! at 8 they gave Malfoys Mission, sent chills down my spine. I wonder whats next!

In Noctem was just played at 8 (CST). Creepy choir. I love it! Cannot wait to purchase it!

In Noctem sounded weird, kinda. I like it, though! lol. I wish I heard the previous two!

They just played, "Harry & Hermione" its kind of a solemn repeating melody. I liked it a lot!

I have heard "Slughorns Confession" - They Play it strangely... Everyone gets other songs...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-29 20:56:09

I dont think Im doing this right - Ive been listening for ages and there was nothing at 9 or 10...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-29 21:03:26

Oh, never mind, Its working now. Im listening to Harry & Hermione.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-29 21:04:59

Maybe youre not listening to the right station... Its Called "Movie Scores"... I Have just heard Farwell Aragog, and it was beautiful!!!!! I love this soundtrack, and Im in love with this composer LOL :)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-29 21:08:49

At 10 they played "Into the Rushes" it was VERY cool. :D

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-29 22:06:20

They just played "The Story Begins" for me! I thought the piano ending was cute! You can tell when it starts getting all mystic is when Dumbledore repairs Slughorns house!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-29 22:08:10

Theyre playing "Opening" right now, and its 11. Sounds great. It starts out really pleasant, but then it gets a dark twist and starts getting really violent. It was AMAZING. I honestly cant wait for the soundtrack :)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-29 22:13:09

They played "Slug Club" for me. Cute, but really short! XD I felt gypped after waiting for an hour... Im debating whether to stay up to hear more! :D

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-29 23:04:32

"Journey to the Cave" starts off kind of slow and sad and then develops into a really suspenseful strings melody with interspersing bass and chorus, followed by a sweeping orchestral piece (brass, percussion) that is both strong, tense, and sad/sweet at the same time. Its great...I think this scene (barring any screw ups from Michael Gambon) will be wonderful.

And midnight rolls around and "When Ginny Kissed Harry" was played, for me at least. It was not the best... A really annoying guitar played in the background and I think the music would be better without it. It was essentially - or rather, completely - some string chords with a guitar playing a repetitive melody up front.

"The Friends" was awesome. So excited for the full soundtrack !!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 00:52:56

hooper like to add guitars and crap to his music like fireworks for instence

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 01:08:50

Ive so far stayed up for 2. I heard "In Noctem" and "Slughorns Confession". In Noctem is amazing! I would listen to it over and over again. Really haunting. Slughorns Confession is ok, mostly standard background music with flute and french horn over it. Its pretty, but not as remarkable as the other and not near any of the other standouts from previous soundtracks. I plan on hearing a few more, not many though, Ill need to go to bed. Yay night shift!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 02:04:27

I just heard "Inferi in the Firestorm". Very bone chilling! Triumphant strings at the end lets you know Dumbledore has saved the day.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 03:03:55

At 3 I heard "Farewell Aragog". It was pretty. Sad though, sounded like a funeral dirge, with earthy strings. I loved it. Just heard "The Story Begins". It was fun. Started out with pretty strings, got ominous, then turned really triumphant and cute. I have faith in this soundtrack. I feel it might rank just under my favorite of the existing ones, which is POA. This one sounds so good.

Just listened to "When Ginny Kissed Harry" very calm and romantic. I like this soundtrack very much, rather then Order Of the Phoenix.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 08:04:29

Listening to The Slug Party now, it reminds me so much of a soap opera tune, haha. Listening to the one at 10, then going to pick up HBP game (:

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 08:54:58

Its not working for me...but Im going to try again. The snippets Ive heard from the soundtrack already are bloody brilliant!! :D

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 10:09:18

at 10 (AM), I heard "The Friends," which sounded great, and at 11 I heard Drink of Despair," which actually freaked me out of my wits when I first heard it.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 11:43:28

Awesome! So far Ive only heard "Opening" at 11pm and it was sooo touching and brilliant! I got chills from it! I cant wait to hear the whole soundtrack. I wonder which song theyre going to play next?!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 12:13:30

This is shhh. Its really uninspiring and simple. I hate the awful tracks with the guitars in the background, its just not Harry Potter.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 12:27:50

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 13:20:58

Ive only heard Farewell Aragog and Slughorns Confession and they sound good... i will definately buy the soundtrack as soon as it comes out... but i really miss john williams. wish he was coming back for the last film, it really needs his awesome touch! :(

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 14:02:57

Im listeing to "IN NOCTEM" right now and OH MY GOD!! ITs amazing! Its hauntingly beautiful. I cant even breathe its so good!! I love the choirs voices!! I cant wait to hear this whole soundtrack! :D

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 14:05:59

Does anyone know if John Williams will return for the last film(s)? Regardless, I just heard "The Story Begins", which started with a simple cello doing some sort of a strange rhythm, continuing on with a rather dark catch, and finally ending with a beautiful "The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, its a beautiful day" kind of music. From what Ive heard, this soundtrack will beat Phoenixs (which in my opinion was the worst of the series) and just come short of Goblet and Prisoner, which are absolutely BRILLIANT scores.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 15:21:41

I LOVED the OOTP soundtrack. Its the only one that Ive purchased so far. I think Nicholas Hooper is brilliant and I cant wait to hear the full HBP soundtrack. But I know John Williams has said he would love to return for Deathly Hallows and I know he still works with the current composers, but since Hooper has been on since OOTP...I think hes going to be the one to finish the series. But Im not complaining cause I love him.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 18:03:15

I just listened to "The Friends", and it sounded OK, but then, before it was over, I accidentally pressed some other station so, I didnt get to finish the song...argh lol.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 19:03:02

Just heard "The Slug Party." Its amazing what Hooper can do with just a few instruments!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-06-30 19:47:53

I heard when Ginny kissed Harry! people dont like the acoustic! But i think it is wonderful! I bet it matches the scene beautifully!!!! I heard "School!! " it was o k! i bet it fits the movie then i heard "Dumbledores Speech!" It uses the possession theme!! Man i am glad he is bringing that back!! Dumbledore seems to have his own theme too which i have heard in "Dumbledores farewell" and in opening!! so it seems like Hooper is slowly but surely developing themes for the characters and i love em!
