If it is Klaus, well it sounds great, but if it is still Marco I think they've made a big mistake taking it from his hands.

I think metal can very easily have it's place within a TMNT movie, but not necessarily as music set to a scene as much as music playing on a radio that happens to be playing during a scene. Similar to this one Vol. 1 TMNT comic where one of the TMNT commented that he heard some Metallica playing on a radio where a couple of rival gangs were about to go at it.

For the movie, I want to hear music similar to the teaser and the trailer. Dark, adventurous, martial arts-esque, and somewhat epic.

I really dont want to hear songs. I really want to hear score, a good score. I really wonder if the music in the trailers were part of films' score, and if so that wouldn't be too bad. I'm hoping they really pull something that's emotional and herioc and something I would want to listen day in and day out on my iPod, and not just the run-of-the-mill phoned in movie score.

I agree with you. I'd prefer to hear 100% score and no songs at all. As for the trailer music, I believe that was covered in the "Front Lines" thread... Kevin said it was not the actual music, but quite similar to the sound they were going for. I might have to dig up that post for ya.

I would actually love it if there was a soundtrack CD AND a score CD. I'm not too picky about the songs they use for the movie - it'll be labeled as Turtle music for me, so it'll all be good. The soundtracks for the first three movies all remain a guilty pleasure of mine.

And yes, I asked Kevin about the music in the trailer.. he said it wasn't from the actual score, but something similar to the tone/feel it will have.

Hmm...I wonder if i could find that music somewhere then. Actually, now that you mention it, some of the music in the newest trailer sounded kinda like music that was used in the trailer for the first spiderman movie.

I really hope the score IS better than the triailer music, becuase it is really disappointing when the trailer music is better than the film's actual music. Example:Troy. Man, was the trailer music really good. The actual score sucked!

I would like to actually have a score CD for TMNT. I think the only score made available for the first films was the "Shredder Suite" on the first soundtrack or am I wrong?

And that score is surprising good as funny as that sounds. I wouldn't mind hearing some refferences to it in the new score, but I doubt that will happen.

Anyways, to me the score is one of the things that can make and break some movies. I've hated movies just for having lousy music before.

That score track from the first movie (Shredder's Suite) was so '80s, and I love it. I wouldn't mind bits like that, but some good epic action music for most of it would be perfect for me.

The score in the Trailer will not be the score in the movie itself, but sound similar?
Does Kevin mean a different composer did the score for the trailer but won't do the movie one, or does he mean Klaus did one especially for the trailer?
I wish someone would clear up who is responsible for the score on the new trailer, I think it sounds really good.
I just hope it is Klaus, after all he is now officially the composer after Marco got the boot.

It's probably just generic trailer music that WB has lying around.

Actually both tracks are performed by bands that specifically make trailer music. One of them is by a band called X-Ray Dog and the other is by Immediate Music. I know one of the tracks is called Heavenly Warriors. Although I can't find either to download anyway, which sucks about trailer music is that they are a pain to find sometimes

[Roseangelo]

Ah, this is news to me! Very cool!

And let us know if you ever find the tracks to download - even though they're not from the actual movie, I still really like them!

[Masked Ninja]

^ Ditto... in the theatrical trailer, the music that kicks in right as the title/weapons fly by still gives me happy-soundtrack-geek goosebumps.

[NightwatchersOnlygirl]

Some rock Raphael's kind off tunes

[Bevandera]

It's "Heaven's Warriors" by Immediate Music and "Alpha Commander" by X-Ray Dog. Immediate Music put out their first (public) CD Epicon last year under their commercial name Globus. Heaven's Warriors isn't on it though. X-Ray Dog's is probably the one everyone's remembering from the trailer...it's from the second half. Unfortunately, like most of Immediate Music's, X-Ray Dog's catalog of music is only available to movie studios.

If you'd like to hear these two songs though...send me a PM and I'll help you out when I'm not at the office.

[sgtfbomb]

I went on a heavy search yesterday to find these tracks, i found plenty of good ones, including some from that Epicon cd forthmentioned, but I didnt find either 'Heaveny; Warriors' or 'Alpha Commander', it sucks that there are no official releases of these tracks...this isnt the first time ive looked this hard for trailer music, ive been searching for some music used in one of the Kingdom of Heaven trailers for a while as well..

[Bevandera]

I'll be less subtle ...I have both of these group's industry sets and will 'help you find' the songs from the trailer. Send me a private message if you're interested, sgtfbomb.

did anyone see this post at superhero hype:

Cobra Starship has a song on the soundtrack and it was just recorded. You can go to there myspace add them as a friend and view the bulletin save the drama for your mama but heres what was said about it.



*speaking of Shredder. Did you know that there’s a new Ninja Turtles movie coming out? Yeah, but did you know that we just did a song for the soundtrack of said movie? Thought not! Yeah, yeah I know: First a movie about reptiles and now one on amphibians—mutated, teenaged, and trained in the martial arts— but nevertheless, amphibian. There was no way we could say no. You see, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (or TMNT, as I like to refer to them) were my favorite when I was growing up. I even had the original comic books (albeit the reissued graphic novels—but nevertheless, I delved deep into the dark side and past of the TMNTs). I always aspired to be an amalgamation of both Michelangelo and Leonardo’s best traits. I wanted to be a fun-loving party-dude, but also have a deep sense of right and wrong and a comprehensive grasp of philosophy. Naturally, of course, I failed at both. But I have been redeemed at last by being able to contribute to my heroes’ soundtrack! Our song is called “Bebop v. Rocksteady,” and it plays over a big fight scene in the movie. After we wrote it, I thought, “hey, this is a great song, but it feels like it’s missing something.” I felt like it still wasn’t as good as “Snakes/Bring it.” Then I had an epiphany! It was missing but one line: “Oh, I’m ready for it!” ** So I added that line, pressed the “#1 Hit Single” button on the console and WHAMMO: the song was complete.

Edit: I looked at their my space and it does say that so it looks like we have our first confirmed song for the soundtrack-'Bebop v. Rocksteady'. hopefully its as good as their snakes on a plane song.

[jezza]

I think my girlfriend will be less than pleased. She doesnt like Panic at the Disco! and I dont think she would like Cobra Starship. Oh well, maybe she wont notice.

[Raph'N'Roll]

The Snakes on a Plane song, so that's who Panic At The Disco are, they were responsible for that.
My God that song was utter crap, even their name sounds like some Abba rip off from the 70's.
God help us all, this soundtrack news just gets worse and worse by the day.

Bring It (Snakes on a plane) was Cobra Starship. Their doing 'Bebop vs Rocksteady' for the new film. Panic At The Disco is who Gray said they were meeting with but has'nt been confirmed yet

Personally i'm looking forward to hearing it, especially considering its a fight song

[Roseangelo]

Ok, but why would there be a song titled "Bebop vs. Rocksteady"? It doesn't make any sense.

I did like the Snakes on a Plane song, but the title here worries me...
