Okay, the title may be a bit of comedic overstatement. What I really mean is I love the Lower Decks soundtrack and think Westlake may have been meant for Star Trek. I don’t know what it is, but it truly evokes TNG era background music but on steroids.
I can’t wait for the second volume. RIP Lower Decks - may the next few years prove to be the “Search for Lower Decks” (minus the butchering of a good Vulcan character, the pointless death… okay, maybe that wasn’t the most apt comparison).
I need to give those a harder listen. I do like how the Prodigy theme combines cinematic and TAS vibes. Also, I like how SNW riffs on the TOS theme.
Also, my “call” is indeed a tongue-in-cheek way to say I hope that Westlake can continue in Star Trek. Admittedly, I probably should have communicated that in a more precise, less melodramatic mode.
