TMNT Nick Soundtrack
 
Just over two years ago, I presented the first-ever extensive soundtrack to the 4Kids TMNT series. Well, I'm back, this time with a soundtrack to the Nickelodeon series. The score to this show is composed by Sebastian Evans II, and there has been no official release of it thus far (I doubt there ever will be). This soundtrack was made through the use of the show's 5.1 surround sound mix, which for the most part isolated voices in the center channel. You'll probably hear a couple voices if you listen carefully enough, but it's nothing distracting.

I present to you now the first-ever soundtrack of the Nick series, containing 19 tracks compiled from the show's first four episodes.

Tracklist:
Spoiler:

(Rise of the Turtles - Part One)
1) Training Session
2) First Night Out
3) Meet April
4) The Dude That Had a Brain
5) Hand Symbols
(Rise of the Turtles - Part Two)
6) Snake Escapes
7) A Bold and Daring Plan
8- Breakout
9) Snakeweed
10) Heatbeat
(Turtle Temper)
11) Surveillance
12) Spiders
13) Raph Returns
(New Friend, Old Enemy)
14) Xever and Bradford
15) Mittens
16) Mikey Wants a Friend
17) Chris Bradford
18- Frenemies
19) Unfriended


You can download it all here. Thanks goes out to evan2000 for providing me with the necessary sound files.

If you do download, please thank me. It gives me a nice warm and fuzzy feeling inside when people thank me for my hard work.

I can take requests from you guys as well! Sometime later I plan to release another album containing popular requests from season one, so let me know if there's a track from the the first season you especially like (make sure to let me know which episode it's from). I guess you can consider this 19-track album a sneak-peek at what's to come.

No album art is provided (I'm awful at that stuff) but feel free to make your own! I'd love to see what you come up with.

Enjoy! :)

Glad to help and very efficient of you to get it done so quickly! The quality is excellent!

Also, your new sig is cool! Seems like Mikey has always been the one who enjoy music the most, regardless of either 4Kids or Nick universe :tlol:

Raph 11-04-2014 11:30 AM

Wow, love this. And what an excellent job! Much respect for making this!

Powder 11-04-2014 01:06 PM

If there are Gods of the universe, may them bless you with magical powers & infinite love! I've wanted this since the first episode. Thanks so much for making it happen.

Been waiting SO long for this...you're awesome.

TheSkeletonMan does it again! I honestly find each series unique with its own soundtrack stance. The Nick series soundtrack wouldn't sound out of place on the original Movie Triology along with some more modern, yet orchestrated cue. 4kids sort of feels similar, though with more familiar theme cues similar to the OT, which obviously sounds dated in spots but obviously has some classic cues. I feel that the OT will be tough to do since that was created prior to the 5.1 sound era and much more difficult to separate.

PangolinFeets 11-04-2014 02:01 PM

Thanks dude! I can't wait to check this out!

IndigoErth 11-04-2014 02:05 PM

That is so awesome, thanks guys! :D

I do have something planned for the OT (;)), but as you said - the material is dated and rare (and in stereo). If I do end up doing a soundtrack for the OT, it definitely won't be as extensive as this soundtrack or the 4Kids one.

Glad you guys like it! Again, you all can request your favorite season one music cues so I can have some ideas for a more comprehensive Nick soundtrack.

If you can ever get that score that plays during the real emotional scenes:

- Casey talking to April about his friend to in ("Target: April O'Neil")
- Karai seeing the Dojo for first time (Wrath of Tiger Claw)
- The turtles as they're leaving the lair to get out of the city (The Invasion)
- April in the most recent episode talking about her mom being gone again (Which was the full score with the two openings)


That melody, if you could find a way to get that score done, I may very well be the happiest man on the face of the Earth. :D

BubblyShell22 11-04-2014 05:41 PM

That's awesome, dude. Kudos to you for being so dedicated. The music for the Nick show is awesome, and I love listening to it when I'm watching the series.

Mind giving episode titles to any of those? Though for the full version in Buried Secrets we'll have to wait a few months for Nickelodeon to release that episode on DVD (probably around next summer, if not later). That's the only source of 5.1 audio for this show, unfortunately.

Off topic, but when I first joined these boards, it totally irked me that people didn't have matching avatars/names. Like, there's Shredder, but his avatar is some anime dude. Or you'd have a guy named Mikey & he's rockin' Spiderman or something. I'd think "You were lucky enough to get the name of character X, why aren't you using their photo?!" :tlol:

pennydreadful 11-05-2014 12:02 AM

Very cool of you to spend so much time putting this together for your fellow fans - it's definitely appreciated. :)

Shark_Blade 11-05-2014 12:02 AM

Omigoodness, I remember the 2k3 ost, and now Nick? YES! :o:D

Pity they don't release it on itunes or something, but I'm still grateful for this. Thanks a bunch!

Have I ever told you I love that picture (in your signature)? :lol:

Shark_Blade 11-05-2014 02:12 AM

I love your signature too! :tlove::tlol:

evan2000 11-05-2014 02:44 AM

Shark Blade, the pic in your sig is a pretty good choice to be used for the album art! Do you have a higher resolution source for it?

Thanks for the hi-res sample! Here's my first attempt:

What do you guys think? Any suggestion to modify anything? The background? The text? Feel free to comment! :tgrin:

TheSkeletonMan939 11-05-2014 02:24 PM

Definitely looks great! The only thing that looks off is that the white outline is visible around the turtles.

Thanks! Hmm I'll see what I can do about that.

Retro-Specs 11-06-2014 08:17 AM

Awesome Awesome AWESOME! I've been searching and looking forward to this for so dang long! Thank you so much, guys, this made my morning.

As for future tracks, volume 2 - I'm definitely looking forward to the tracks from "I Think His Name is Baxter Stockman" (Which I would guess is next on your list anyway?).

Especially hoping to hear, from that episode:
-The song that plays while the turtles run on the rooftop looking for a skate spot (And Donny discovers that the T-Pod is downloading music on its own)
-The first fight with Baxer
-The intense fight with the Stockmanpod later on

All great tunes, along with the rest of the episode.

There's another song I'm looking forward to. It plays in "A Foot too Big" during the first part of the fight with The Finger. However, I know the same song was used in previous episodes as well, I just don't have time to look for it now.

Thanks again so much, looking forward to what else you put out.

evan2000 11-06-2014 10:22 AM

Take two, I made it higher resolution as well. Better?

Figured out how to add drop shadow. Which color is better?

Looks great! My favorite is probably the bottom left.

Alright! Here's full resolution (I also made room for bigger texts by shifting the turtles a tad lower):

Awesome cover art, Evan. Good job.

Yo, this ish is tight. Good work, man. The cover art is good work, too.

Those pics you made look great, evan. Two thumbs up. :tsmile:

evan2000 11-11-2014 12:00 PM

Thanks! Glad that you guys like it :tgrin:

I've updated a little by adding "Volume I" in one of the hexagon cell:
