Having spent the last year watching FarScape featuring Guy Gross' music, I came back to Season 1 this past week in celebration of FarScape's 10th Anniversary.
It's interesting to note the change in music. Subvision's music in Season 1 and early part of Season 2 seems to have a quality that's lacking in Gross'. Not that that's a bad thing, but it presents a nice development that nicely follows the development of the series.
In Season 1, Subvision's music tends to reflect the innocence that the show still had at the time (at least, as far as Crichton was concerned) and presents a nice "long way from home" feeling. And, it helps to introduce us to this new, wacky Universe. Then, as the series grew and we became more familiar with it, Gross came in and the music changed with the tone of the series, and reflecting the hell that the characters are now going through.
Just an interesting thought that occurred to me recently.
