By the time I pass, I will only have heard a small fraction of everything out there that might hold my interest anyway. It's better to enjoy what is rather than obsessing over what isn't. Wise words, Thor. I feel likewise.

Or have A.I. compose in the "style" of your fav composer. Who needs A.I. Just put the "Danger Motif" on repeat. That would be Enemy at the Gates.

Better still: improve your sound ("Hi-Fi" ?) set-up ... you'll find it's like having a new collection of works where you know the music but it now sounds better than it ever did. We played George Garvantenz' Triple Cross (an excellent CDr transfer from vinyl, now ripped to a NAS drive and streamed back to the Hi-fi) ... I've known this score, every note, for approx. 50 years ... this time it sounded different, richer, more realistic. This happens time and again: our "new" streamer is a little over 2yrs old and most albums go 3+ years between plays. Yeah, I know what you are saying. I updated my HiFi setup few years ago, first I exchanged my trusty old Technics setup with a modern streamer/amp, and later exchanged my floor standing speakers for a new pair. Sometimes when I put in an old (often Varèse Sarabande) album of something, I am amazed at how good the recording sounds. I just listened to MEDICINE MAN the other day, obviously for the first time in years, and it sounded amazing.

I am a BIG fan of Horner. I have 90% of his stuff. I of course lament there will never be any more new music from him. Best I can hope for is never-released stuff to be released. Anyway - Today I put on In Country (which I bought and listened to 3 years ago) and not only did I not remember how it sounded, I really enjoyed it. If you liked Dad, Searching for Bobby Fischer, Field of Dreams, etc, its in your wheelhouse. My point is that for all intents and purposes, it was brand new to me. So instead of wishing for the next release of your favorite composer, go back and listen to those that you're not really familiar with. It will be give you a very similar experience of enjoying "new" music that you might like a lot. That's what I've been doing since last year - and it really made me appreciate many scores I did not give enough time and respect to before.
