Ladies and gentlemen, today I want to share my love for one of the most impressive original motion picture soundtracks ever created. It comes from an amazing movie adaptation of James Fenimore Cooper book. When I listen to music from "The Last of the Mohicans" I feel immediately transported to the mountains and forests of Native Americans without leaving my home and timeline^^ Into the world full of wonderful wildlife, incredible sceneries and threatening dangers, where brave, honorable men are going through heroic adventures. Listening to this music makes me feel as if I was looking from the top of the mountain with a hawk eye^^ That's how it works for me. I invite anyone who wants to find out about it to join me on this musical journey.

Lately I listen a lot to the music I know for years. One of the singers that I love to come back to is Enya. Her music is soothing and reminds me of simpler, peaceful times.
Hope this new year will be fascinating, inspiring and creative for everyone. Just like her music is.

Is there any more moody, full of melancholy atmosphere and drama, but at the same time beautifully moving, magical music in spirit of Christmas/holiday season, than Danny Elfman compositions from Tim Burton movies? I personally think there is not.
Merry Christmas. Good will toward men... and women.

There is this band which records absolutely phenomenal renditions of well-known hits of popular music, giving them a new, different, mysterious character. It's called Death in Rome. I'm delighted with the style in which they do it (the Neofolk genre). Listening to them is unreal. These recordings have dark, pensive mood, full of melancholy and emotions. They use black and white scenes from old films to illustrate their covers. It deepens the perceived impression of music. Scenes from Andrei Tarkovsky movie "Ivan's childhood" were used in two videos which I chose. I appreciate him very much as a filmmaker. In his films you can find beautiful cinematography and the depth of the message. I invite you to get acquainted with the legacy of this outstanding director if you don't have a chance before.

It's again this time of year when everything is more bleak, stranger and scary. I think that Type O Negative music has the perfect mood for October and Halloween. I found on youtube fanmade music videos with scenes from movies that I appreciate a lot. They all contain horror atmosphere which I consider the most imaginative, haunting and beautifully dark.

Let me take you on a time travel to the times of my childhood, through the magical music of Clannad. These were times when brave "Robin of Sherwood" helped the oppressed people in the fight against evil and tyranny. Of course I didn't come into the world in medieval England (: What I'm writing about is the most magical and mysterious series about Robin Hood, preserved in the atmosphere of medieval mysticism and magic. It was created in the eighties. I was fascinated by the atmosphere of the show. Probably then my love for mysterious side of nature and mystical forests were born. I have always followed Robin's adventures with great excitement. It's hard to explain what exactly I felt when I was watching it. That was the feeling of wonder and of dealing with something unique and unusual, a touch of magic. It happened to me sometimes when I was a kid and I'm still trying to see it in the world that surrounds me. Music played a significant role in this. Take a listen and find out for yourself if you haven't heard Clannad before.
