Amsterdam

Have you seen the film Amsterdam yet? The song Time by Jvion Evans, which appears in the movie, has been getting a lot of buzz.

The film is set in the 1930s, and the melody matches that era with a jazz-like feel.

Since Evans usually works mainly in R&B, many fans probably found it refreshing.

Also, the lyrics portray the characters’ friendship and love, so listening to it is sure to warm your heart.

The Fabelmans

Steven Spielberg’s semi-autobiographical film The Fabelmans was released in November 2022.

The music was composed by John Williams, the composer who has partnered with Spielberg on numerous classics.

The film also marks the 50th anniversary of their collaboration.

The main theme, The Fabelmans, was recorded as a solo piano piece, and its warm sound—capturing even the surrounding air unique to acoustic instruments—is especially appealing.

Anri Kumaki is a singer who has released many folk songs.

One of her works, Hanamuke no Uta, was created around the theme of what we wish we could tell those who have passed away.

If you, too, feel there’s something you want to say, you’ll surely relate.

The song also gives voice to what the departed might want to tell those left behind.

Of course, we can’t actually exchange words, but listening to this song may bring you a bit of comfort.

Ghostbusters: Afterlife

Have you all seen Ghostbusters: Afterlife? It’s a true successor that respects the world of the original Ghostbusters while adding fresh elements.

The role of Phoebe, Trevor’s younger sister, is powerfully portrayed by Mckenna Grace.

Remarkably, at just 15, she not only starred as a main cast member in this major film, but she also performed the ending theme, Haunted House.

Even more surprising, the track is her debut single! The slightly horror-flavored music video is a must-see.

“Uptown Vibes” is a track by American rapper Meek Mill, included on his 2018 album Championships.

Created with full determination following the legal troubles that had kept him incarcerated around 2017, the album—with plenty of buzz—debuted at No.

1 on the U.S.

charts.

The song was featured in the trailer for the 2023 live-action film Blue Beetle, based on an American comic-book superhero.

Its track, with a striking melodic riff that repeats, sticks in your head for a while after just one listen.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse

CallingMetro Boomin, NAV, A Boogie wit da Hoodie, Swae Lee

For those who like mellow-sounding rap songs, I also recommend “Calling.” It’s a collaboration by DJ Metro Boomin and rappers Swae Lee and NAV, and serves as the theme song for the film Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.

The lyrics portray the protagonist’s feelings as he loses his sense of identity and struggles.

Whether you’ve seen the movie or not, you’ll likely relate.

The music video, which uses footage from the film, is also a must-see.

An essential element of a moving cinematic experience is the music that plays within the film.

Mike Oldfield’s signature work is known for a tone that embodies the eerie atmosphere of The Exorcist.

Listening to it, you can vividly picture the tense scenes on the screen along with its distinctive resonance.

Released in February 1973, the piece was composed when Oldfield was 19, with him performing almost all the instruments himself.

Deeply tied to the film, this theme has continued to linger in viewers’ minds and is still beloved and talked about today.

It’s a highly recommended track for everyone who loves and is interested in film music.
