A Comparison of the 2 "The Force Awakens" Soundtracks, Parts 8-14

FYC Track 8: The Rathtars
0:00-0:09 = OST track 9, 1:21-1:31

0:10-0:25 = OST track 9, 1:46-1:59
Sorta. Mostly.

0:26-0:41 = OST track 9, 1:33-1:46
Loosely, not precisely.

0:41-1:01 = OST track 9, 2:07-2:29

1:01-1:19 = not in OST


FYC Track 9: Snoke
0:00-0:12 = not in OST
big horn riff as intro

0:12-1:04 = OST, track 17 0:00-1:02
Not exactly, but same melodic patterns in the low voices. FYC has some extra (string) bass notes around 0:26 not in the OST, but largely the same musically.

1:04-2:07 = not in OST
The basso profundo voices heard in the first minute of the track continue in the FYC, where in the OST they are replaced by instrumental playing.


FYC Track 10: You Got A Name
0:00-1:31 = not in OST
A salient romantic “Beauty and the Beast”-esque horn passage opens this track. I don't believe it's heard in the movie – something to listen for on my third viewing. Rey's melody is heard at 0:25 played softly by a flute, then again at 0:47 by the same instrument but a bit faster and with more presence.


FYC Track 11: I’m No Hero
0:00-0:53 = OST track 10, 0:00-0:53

0:53-1:06 = not in OST
Where the OST transitions, the FYC holds and concludes.


FYC Track 12: The Starkiller
0:00-1:52 = OST track 12, 0:00-1:52


FYC Track 13: Kylo Ren Arrives at the Battle
0:00-0:33 = OST track 13, 0:00-0:33

0:33-0:46 = not in OST
A few extra seconds of incidental/transitional music. This is another case where it's likely the film needed a few more/less seconds of score, so one of these takes is probably a revision/edit of the other.

0:46-1:02 = OST track 13, 0:33-0:50

1:02-1:10 = not in OST
Again, one of these tracks is probably a revision of the other to accommodate the timing needs of the movie.

1:10-1:21 = OST track 13, 0:50-1:02
Same music, different timings suggests that these are two different takes of the same cue.

1:21-2:15 = OST track 13, 1:04-2:02
Slight differences in timing again suggests different takes.


FYC Track 14: The Resistance
0:00-1:35 = not in OST
This is the Resistance March, comparable but not identical to parts of track 16 of the OST. This clip is very likely used in the film at the 76 minute point as the first appearance of the Resistance March. This is something for me to listen carefully for during a third viewing.
