My Bond marathon continues. I'm watching Goldeneye. One thing I always loved about the film that gave it a certain atmosphere, was a specific background sound effect used through out the film that was also used in Leon/The Professional. It's hard to describe the sound, but it was also used in the Goldeneye videogame and probably other 90's films and shows. But I remember hearing it first in Leon and then Goldeneye used it through out the entire film even when there was no music, just that sound in the background. I had no idea it was the same composer either.
The sound it's like a hammer hitting a tube or something in the background. It's a very Russian sound even though it's not Russian at all.

Leon
Another film that uses that sound is The Fith Element. Guess who was the composer...
Same guy.
I think it was also used in The Crow.
