Re: "Space" music recommendation!

 

Here're some titles of instrumental music that could be used as "space" music:

 

 

Armada

1,000 Ships of the Underworld

Interceptors Duel

 

All by Two Steps From Hell, and

 

Tomb Raider: Underworld main theme

 

by Troels Fohlmann.

 

 

There are a few other pieces of music done by Two Steps From Hell that fit the

category of "space" music, but I can't remember their titles at the moment. The

ones that I've mentioned here can be found on YouTube, however, along with

many others.

I recently finished watching the reimagined Battlestar Galactica series, and Bear McCreary's musical score was amazing. Although some consider season three (and four) the weakest of the lot, I believe S3 had the best soundtrack. These two are awesome:

 

 

 

 

...and I don't know if you consider it "space music", but this reinterpretation of a classic rock standard (and the way they used it in the show) took guts, whether the plot device worked or not. (I'm still undecided on that point.)

For suspenseful "classic" science-fiction space music, IMHO you can't do better than Bernard Herrman's theremin-rich score for the original movie The Day the Earth Stood Still. Below is a suite which he arranged based on the score, part of the album, The Fantasy Film World of Bernard Herrman:
