Oh boy. There's a lot of noise here. Not much of it all that pleasing to my ear. This is synth scoring set to 'average'. "The Versace Murder" creates a piano cycle a la Halloween, then with some synths I last heard from Jean Michel Jarre and an electric guitar things go speedily nowhere. The rock songs "I'll Take The Night" and "I'm So Glad" are mostly cringeworthy. The calypso of "Estoy Enamorado De Ti" and "Madera Fina" are quite out of place and repetitive. The saxophone and moog combo's of "At The Bar" and "The Limousine" are unfortunately tamed by the electronic overlays, as is what could have been a saving grace from Paulo Pinto's soprano track in "Versace's Theme". Lots of fast paced synth beats whip up some dramatic intrigue, but when they're interrupted by such unlikely inclusions as a synth sample of the Carmina Burana prelude ("Cunanan's Theme") you really have to wonder what's going on.
