Vaiana : original motion picture soundtrack

"For me this music feels a bit static and I wouldn't say slow, but a bit boring. There's rarely any moments with true pleasure. I wouldn't call it without soul, but it sure won't light up my world. I did ask for some tribal music and there is, but to me it doesn't feel heavy enough or fun enough. It definitely needs to push it quite a bit because as it is, it's just not very enjoyable. It's strange and I don't know what happened exactly, but for me, it's just not fun. Maybe I have to see the movie to fully enjoy the score, but to be honest, that shouldn't be a requirement".

"A Polynesian girl embarks on a rite of passage in Moana, a scrappy sweetheart of an animated joyride, rising on the tide of a terrific score by genius Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda, iconic Disney composer-arranger Mark Mancina, and the rhythmic chants of Opetaia Foa'i, the lead singer of the South Pacific fusion band Te Vaka. Sound plays as crucial a role as visuals in replicating an authentic culture to drive the storytelling".
