Best music

[Celeste]

There used to be a fantastic site called Star Trek in Sound and Vision. They had all sorts of screen shots and audio files of music, dialoge, wallpapers, desktop themes, and anything else Trek related that you could ever want. But it got shut down quite a few years ago cause of the bandwith problems. Sad really.

Well, I'm still a sap for the Inner Light/Ressikan Flute theme.

As for more recent stuff, there's always The Picard Song and The Worf Song. Definitely worth a download.

STISV was a great site, but these days all you'll find are references and dead links to it that are like ten years old. Another reason that I wish that webmasters were required to update at least once a year, be shunted to a site clearly marked as being archival sites, or be dumped. Furthermore, there's gotta be a way for a message to be sent to a webmaster "oh yeah, this link was tested, and the site's gone. You should remove it."

There's some terrific music in the movies. One of the first CDs I owned was the Generations soundtrack, so I have a soft spot for that one. First Contact had a gorgeous Jerry Goldsmith score which was poorly served by the soundtrack album -- some of the most memorable themes, like the one that plays while Picard and Worf's teams silently approach Engineering, aren't on there at all. On the other hand, Insurrection's soundtrack album gets it just right. My favourite track is "Children's Story," a beautiful two-minute piece that doesn't get its due in the actual film.
