Elevation
Our rating, out of 100 — and why.
AI-generated from five scored dimensions. An opinion, not a measurement.
A tightly arranged funk score whose recurring themes and sharply contrasted cues give it shape; its instrumental passages carry more weight than its vocal material.
What we noticed
- The title theme opens with a hard, repeating brass-and-percussion figure; the end theme returns to that material to close the sequence.
- “Hung Up on My Baby” slows the pace into a spacious guitar-led groove, while “Run Fay Run” answers with a brisker, string-driven chase feel.
- The nine tracks move between recurring crime-film themes and shorter character cues rather than building around a run of vocal songs.
- Composition 25% of the score

Significant within its genre. Reported but not counted — how far a record travelled describes its reception rather than the record, and a newer release has had less time to travel than an older one.
