The nostalgia bug has finally hit the film score fan community. As long as I hear something I love from the past its all peaches and cream. Amazing!
This depends on context. When needledropping is used to imbue a sense of nostalgia, then it's a bit suspect, but if used to give new meaning to the scene and music at once, I say go for it. Frankly, there might be a bit much of stringent gatekeeping regarding whether it counts as nostalgia or not.

Tom is correct.
In fact many ballets and dance performances use pre-existing music. Not to mention ice skating routines.

I didn't like VERTIGO in THE ARTIST.
Otherwise a fine film and score.

but if that "new meaning" is because you recognize the cue and the original movie... isnt that nostalgia too (kind of)?
is DRESSED TO CUE opening cue adding a "new meaning" to the scene??
was Hason's symphony peace in ALIEN nice? sure... but made any dramatic and narrative sense along with Goldsmith score? I dont think so
That's why the accusation of nostalgia is shaky ground at best. Individual experiences/COUGHdictatesCOUGH may indicate preference, but they're not universal by any means. I was introduced to certain works due to needledropping, but due to listening to film scores outside of the films, I'm not obliged to recall instances in certain works (sometimes even if I tried really hard).

Three eps in....
The music is great. Only a few cues were recognized.
The show is intriguing but frustrating...so far.

Whether the use of needle drops is right or wrong, it doesn't surprise me this is happening, and I have a feeling we are going to see more of this nostalgic repurposing of older film music.
It started happening in the 90s, with Scorsese's Cape Fear, and has been growing over the past couple of decades -- most notably with Tarantino, but again with Scorsese in Casino (where he used old movie themes by Delerue and Bernstein) and the use of Herrmann's Vertigo in The Artist.
I imagine the producer of this series looks at the kind of film music that was being written 40-50 years ago, and compares it to the power chords, loops, drones, and temptrack pastiches (which today's composers are force to write), and can't help but notice which is more interesting.

You're probably thinking of Klute.

Here also.
The Seventies suspense cues work . Hermann doesn't (DTEST is an exception. ).
Didn't like the Donaggio cues either.

Maybe the cost of getting Julia Roberts meant they couldn't afford original music.
Ha.
When Basil Wrathbone left the SHERLOCK HOLMES RADIO SHOW the producers upgraded the music from organ to full orchestra!
