We removed the music from this Return of the Jedi scene… and the difference is unreal.
The Emperor’s arrival on Death Star II feels empty without his ominous theme… a perfect reminder of how essential film music truly is.
Thanks for the suggestion, @vtohiercomposer !
Which film scene should we try next?

Today, 27 April 2026, marks exactly 111 years since the Russian composer Alexander Scriabin passed away. In his late works, including the symphonic poem «Prometheus – Le Poème du feu», he anticipated harmonic developments that, according to some musicologists, paved the way to twelve-tone music. In my orchestral piece »Prometheus 111« I use Scriabin's mystical chord and some other motifs to recall the composer’s contribution to musical modernism. The lyrics and groove by James Gruntz , Nina Gutknecht and Klu bring the cosmos of this remarkable composer back to life in today’s world.
