Ramin Djawadi is justly famous and admired for his music to GAME OF THRONES. However, his remarkable music for WESTWORLD may be his masterpiece, so far. It is, apart from being just the right underscore to this provocative series, music that more than holds its own on its own. He uses what sound like familiar Western movie tropes, suggesting at times Copland, at other times Morricone, at all times Ramin Djawadi. It's deliciously dark music, poignant, haunting, and very lean and muscular. It has a spirituality about it, a menace at times, and a sad desolation. But it's always VERY listenable. The stride piano moments, conjuring up saloons in dusty Western towns, are especially interesting to me, for their melodic lyricism, and more than a trace of sadness. I'm a fan of vintage movie music, and I absolutely love this! And I have to mention how much pleasure I take in his setting for orchestra of THE STONES magnificent "Paint It Black." It's a revelation, and makes me wish Mr. Djawadi would release an instrumental version of the work of THE ROLLING STONES.
