Sure you are itching to see Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince and the opening day, July 15th, is just too far away.  You can’t stand it anymore! Well, AOL Radio Station might have the next best thing for you to keep you appeased while you go through the dreaded waiting pattern — the movie soundtrack online!

AOL Radio Station has an exclusive premiere for the new Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince soundtrack. The only snare is that you need to go on the hour every hour to listen to each song on the soundtrack album, one song per hour. I’ve enjoyed listening because Harry Potter soundtracks are unique and clever, each part of the story can easily be “seen” through the music. The music plays an important role in this movie as it does in every movie. To take a listen — just click on Harry at the top of the hour and go to Move Scores.

I always take great pleasure in listening to movie soundtracks. John Williams is on my top five list of music composed and conducted for film.

Lucus Film recently re-released all the original movie soundtracks to the Indian Jones franchise: Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.  

All three feature Oscar-winning composer John Williams’ soundtracks digitally remastered from the original tapes, plus unreleased music from each respective film. Previously available only as part of last year’s highly successful box set release Indiana Jones: The Soundtracks Collection, these reissued CD’s will be available individually for the first time. The chance to finally hear that minute of Indy toppling the Anubis statue in ‘Raiders’ is what music soundtracks are all about, seeing the movie in your mind with music.

 Now with just about every bit of Indiana Jones music on deck here, listing to some of John Williams’ greatest achievements for the popcorn cinema has never sounded more fun, or fresh. I’ve been having a blast listening and connecting the scenes with his music.  This set is worth a place in your library and iPod.

I encourage any Indian Jones fan or John William’s music lover to get the series – listening to the music is like seeing the movies all over again with the mind’s eye.
