Cartoon music...

raphael90 · 11-25-2002, 09:16 PM

This may sound strange, but I think the background music on the cartoon (or at least the first few seasons) is cool. I love that 80's synthesizer vibe.
If they ever compiled it onto a cd (which I doubt will ever happen) I'd probably get it. There's some great portions of music that I could probably play over and over. Some of the greatest music is off the first episode 'Heroes In A Halfshell' which they of course recycled from then on.

There's one piece I love in particular...you can hear it the first time on 'A Thing About Rats' when Baxter is arriving at his shop after leaving Shredder and going inside before the foot soldiers approach...

Yeah, I'm weird with my musical tastes...

Dude, I know exactly what you mean when you say the background music is cool. And all these years, I thought I was the only one who felt this way.

I hum the background music from the Ninja Turtles ten seasons all the time. I sing it while I'm walking to and from classes; I hum it to myself when I'm working or at work; I even go a little crazy when I'm doing homework. I have often wondered if someone out there in the world has been able to download every theme that ever aired on the show and has the ability to make a CD of it. If an official one ever came out, I would definitely pick it up!

I loved the background music to the Ninja Turtles cartoon. I loved every season of it. I thought it was cool how they would introduce new themes every year, but they would still use some of the older themes occasionally, too.

Long live Ninja Turtles cartoon music!

I could capture the BG music from the eps (which i also think was great

i liked the technodrome music... ) but after a while the characters start talking so i'd end up with an either short version or one that has speech on it.

**Karpo_007** · 11-26-2002, 06:23 AM

Yeah the First Season had the best music, some of it was used in later seasons, some wasn't.

i agree with Nickokapo
, the technodrome's background theme was the best,

I wonder if there is some way to extract the talking out of the background music? I suppose there probably is, but I'm not sure if any of us know how (or have the equipment) to do such a thing.

There isn't. It's one sound stream, you cant take parts out of it.

Ninja Turtles Cartoon Fan · 11-26-2002, 08:31 AM

Aw, nuts!

It's official - I hate sound stream now.

raphael90 · 11-26-2002, 09:30 AM

Nice to see I'm not alone!

Yeah! I hum those pieces to myself all the time...probably the one I do the most is the beginning of 'Heroes In A Halfshell' where the gang chases April then the Turtle's rescue her.

And yeah, the Technodrome music was GREAT! Those were wonderful vibes...

I think because I watched those cartoons as a kid, they're ingrained in me so much it still
wows me when I watch them...

**Karpo_007** · 11-26-2002, 10:00 AM

Ther first episode is called "Turtle Tracks"

raphael90 · 11-26-2002, 10:16 AM

I forget to include the episode name.

~Actually, I think you can. It would require one of the more pricey sound editing programs, but even though there are no longer separate tracks, certain bandwidths or tones can be muted down so they can't really be heard.
Not that I personally could do it.....

I have a bunch of quotes and stuff on my computer. I just put a boombox up to the TV speaker and captured the sound on tape. Then I recorded it onto my computer. Cheap, not very clean, but listenable nonetheless.

I also really like the ending credits music...that's just great. But its only 30 seconds long! I could listen to that over and over on repeat.

If it is possible, it would take a pro to do it.

The ending credits music, that i could get!

Since it has no speech over it or anything..

It'll be in vain if you do; it's already available for download on the main site.

raphael90 · 11-26-2002, 09:46 PM

Where? I looked around in a few places but didn't see it...

**Krang** · 11-27-2002, 03:26 AM

Right here: http://www.thetechnodrome.com/sounds/
It's the third link from the top. Also, the eighth link from the top is about 12 seconds of the Technodrome background music from the cartoon.

*Jephael* · 11-27-2002, 07:40 AM

My favorite background music has to be the chase scene tune they would play. I know they had it in "The Mutagen Monster" and "The Big Blow Out", but it was the best in the cab scenes from "Raphael Drives 'Em Wild"

Ninja Turtles Cartoon Fan · 11-28-2002, 03:31 PM

I liked all the background music from the series. I also liked it when they tried something different. For example, there was cowboy-type music in "Mutagen Monster" and "Unidentified Flying Leonardo."

The many variations of the original cartoon theme were cool, too.
