    When you first hear the Mandalorian theme, it’s almost jarring and gritty. It’s also so alien. The dissonance is so unique, yet masterfully harnessed. I honestly hated it after the first 1 and a half episodes until I started immersing myself in the series and character. He captures the wilderness of the outer rim and the western sci-fi vibe so well. Now I can’t imagine not having this piece of art in Star Wars forever. It is a piece worthy of sitting next to John Williams scores for sure.

      @@Ken-vl4wk The show is a pastiche, and it goes at its source materials HARD. What prevents it from tipping over to a parody of itself is this music which glues all the parts together into a believable seamless narrative. The theme song is itself a synthesis of Morricone and John Williams that is so well integrated that it’s greater than the sum of its parts. It’s a rare work where the influences are so clearly present, yet is 100% original.

I did like the new movies, for the most part, but they suffer from the baggage that the original movies placed on them. The Mandalorian wisely mostly stayed away from the original characters, the Jedi, and the Force. That's all still there, but it's not front and centre. The stories would still work in a Western or a Samurai, with all the Star Wars elements stripped away, which I don't think you can say the new movies would entirely manage.

      AND it has a signature TONE! Recorders immediately make me think of the Mandalorian the same way the harmonica makes me think of Once upon a time in the West. Few people can do that real well(Bear McReary pulled it off with the hurdy-gurdy and the amazing soundtrack he did for a very underrated series: Black Sails) so thats pretty amazing!

  • @takewithfood

    Dude knocked it out of the park. This is one of the best theme I've ever heard. And it's especially important for The Mandalorian, since for the first several episodes we have just one main character who seldom speaks and whose face we never see, and a puppet. The music shoulders a huge burden for setting the tone and feel of the show and setting, and it nails it. It's also so distinct and easily recognizable. Just amazing.
