Just wondered if anyone knows the track listing for the promo/bootleg CD Follow Your Dreams Volume 3: The Hans Zimmer Crew. I suppose it features material from the Media Ventures gang. Does anyone have copies for sale? And is this CD readily available now?
Jon
if your'e looking for something similar to the rock and crimson tide you have to get peacemaker.also check out the man with the iron mask.speed is also very good.
Yep!!! The score to Armageddon will be released this fall. This news came straight from Sonymusic.com. No lie.
I'm so happy!
This fall.
Look for it.

ALEX,CHECK OUT THE BACKDRAFT SOUND TRACK. IT HAS SOME REALLY DARK MOMENTS AND SOME PATRIOTIC SOUNDING HIGHLIGHTS.IT IS THE CLOSEST SOUNDING TO THE 2 YOU MENTIONED.BLACK RAIN IS ALSO PRETTY GOOD BUT IT TAKES AWHILE,AND THERE'S NOT MUCH.
um,
several thousand people have Regarding Henry when they bought it when it was still in print.
New Music In Films has recently gone OOP again...luckily I picked up a reprint. Certainly regretted not buying it back in 92, got it in 96.
A clip of TRKillers by HGW is on Zinfo - geez, look it up gman!
Alex - go to the Zimmer Discography on Zinfo for brief descriptions.
later,
Chrisz
Hello.
I'm not a regular poster on this page. The only Zimmer work I have is The Rock and Crimson Tide, and I LOVE both of them. I would appreciate if someone could email me and let me know which
of his other works are similar to these, and which you think I would really like, given the two soundtracks mentioned above.
Thank you,
Alex
Does anyone know where I can find tracks from the Replacement Killers soundtrack on the web? I've been looking, but haven't been finding...
I HAVE A COPY OF REGUARDING HENRY AND DO NOT KNOW OF ANY ONE ELSE WHO HAS THIS DISC. I KNOW OF AT LEAST 25 PEOPLE WHO WOULD KILL FOR IT. WE SHOULD LOBBY FOR A RE-ISSUE. ALSO A VARY RARE FIND WAS A FORIEGN DISC I STUMBLED ACROSS CALLED "NEW MUSIC IN FILM" WHICH CONTAINS THREE MEDIUM TO LONG WORKS OF THREE FORIEGN FILMS I'M SURE NOT TOO MANY PEOPLE HAVE HEARD OF. IT IS DISTRIBUTED BY THE MILAN LABEL BUT WHO KNOWS IF IT'S AVAILIBLE. THIS IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM HIS OTHER WORKS. IT IS ALMOST OPRARETIC IN FORM.
Hans does have two children.A daughter named Zoe from a previous marriage(She resides in Germany) and a new baby boy named Jake.
Hiya, you may already know this I shouldn't have waited so late heh, but about 3 weeks ago I saw the preview for ENEMY OF STATE and it did say music by Hans Zimmer, and since its a Jerry Bruckheimer film expect tons of great themes, lets hope its a good one
Does anyone know where i can find the Real Audio for "I dont wanna miss a thing"?? If you do, please E-mail me.
Well I can't wait for the movie. I expect it to be one of my favorites, but maybe my expectations are too high.
Anyways, I bought the score yesterday and it is very nice. The first and last tracks is a tribute hymn to the veterans of WWII. It is incredible!! Full chorus and orchestra grows into a classic, something that will be around forever. It brings out the tears. Sounds a little like a more mature theme that Williams would write for the Olympics.
The rest of the score is very refined. It sounds alot like William's Amistad score when John Q. Adams is talking. Very Coplandesqe with trumpet and french horn solos. It is not near as powerful as the first and last track but it is soothing. Sadly it is a bit redundant. I recommend it though.
Thats my review, anymore questions....go ahead and email.
Doug
Two Kids? Two kids! Where did Hans get off with two kids?
Can I have 'Flight Of The Navigator' ?
Please E-Mail me
Also looking for 'Uncle Buck'
if anyone has the armageddon mp3, please leave a message to where it is, i will delte it after 24 hours u know the routine
Would somebody try my soundtracks?

Thanks!
sigh,
George, I emailed you the answer the day you posted your message. Either your mail is terrible, or you didn't believe me.
Yes, Julius has the correct answer - no difference in music between the 2 pressings. I feel the European version (used in movie) has the better cover.
Chrisz
Hi,
Just saw in the stores the cd 'Music from the Films from Sean Connery'. It had also a track from the Rock (Hummel Gets The Rockets) on it, but it was a different version than the original. It sounded pretty good, not as good as the real one, though, but it was fun to hear. It had a little louder and more percussion on it, what sounded alright. Track was a little over 5 minutes.
Julius
PS. I think that the both K2's are the same, because they both contain two tracks called the Ascent and the Descent, and are both about 40 minutes. But I only own the American (inspired by)
I have mailed this in June but there don't seems to have any
reply for this.. does that means that no one knows?????
Question:
Is there any difference between the album
K2( skier picture cover ) and the album
music inspired by the film K2 ( snow mountain cover )???
Both albums composed by hans zimmer..
Thanks.
hi ho,
well...I've advised against this elsewhere before, and I will again. The commercial version is available for $14:
Click
The oscar promo has NOTHING different in terms of music, and anything at all really. You have been advised. So, be content with a bid of $14 (inc. postage), unless the words 'oscar' on the cover gives you joy. Maybe a different case if it was autographed.
PONReturn:
Lawrence, why bother with a fake email address? just leave it blank.
it's on the CD titled HATE, but is a different recording than that used in movie.
you can buy it from here:

still a 'bitching' track.

i have a copy of the very limited-release promo of zimmer's score to "as good as it gets" that was distributed to members of the academy of motion pictures arts and sciences for oscar consideration. the cover is slightly different from the commercially released cd. cd goes to the highest bidder.
you probably have the answer to this by now but I was looking around for the answer to the very same question & learned that she is married to Danny Elfman's nephew.
looking for good deal on a Fairlight CMI IIx.
Just like to one Hanns , or Peter Gabreil uses
I would like to get this CD, but only if it has the music at the beginning of the film that had a female singing over some heavy metal guitar. I think the track might be "Devil's Kitchen," or something to that effect.
Hey,
Both albums are great. The broadway one has hardly any Zimmer music but it has Mark Mancina.
The Rythm one has both Mancina and Zimmer tracks with Lebo M singing most of them.
Both are very good. Wait a little while for my review coming soon.
Alicia
Looking for "The House of the Spirits" soundtrack CD. Please email me with a price and condition. Thanks.

Hi Zimmerites.
Want to read something funny about Hans Zimmer? Check out http://us.imdb.com/Name?Zimmer,+Hans. Guarenteed laughter.
On the side note, the same page has Lebo M down as recieveing the Razzie award for worst song. I'm so pissed off I could just find out who wrote that and send them a note from one of my computer hacking pals.
Also, I will be sending BT and Yumbo a htmlized review of Power of One, and other Lion King stuff about the music.
I hope you all will like it.
Hi folks
I'm looking for a copy or three of the CD "Follow Your Dreams 2: The Hans Zimmer Chronicles". I have volume one if anyone is interested in a dub-trade. As far as I'm concerned, volume one is the rarest one with only 100 copies or so worldwide.
Best
Jon
yo!
been a while.
ok, reflection in life time...anyway...Yumbiosis' RA sound library has been cooking for the last month with over 14 titles and 30 full length clips...and there's another 6 titles and 10 clips lined up.
The most recent 10 titles are indexed here with the 21 latest entertainment and Macintosh stories:

Q:
I'll be adding 3 album reviews on Harry Gregson-Williams; would you prefer to see a whole 'page' for the reviews, ie. HGWinfo/etc. or just a review summary page?
He recently co-scored Armageddon (no album apart from theme), and is currently (co-)scoring Antz - Dreamworks NOW first (digital) animation.
After adding more RAs, and the new HGW reviews/page, along with Chicago Hope (and hopefully High Incident, by then)/Jeff Rona page (please choose), I'll TRY to add one article a week (I have about 8 of them), and then finish my MV visits page.
Note also that I can provide CDR services, with proceeds going toward the upkeep of Zinfo etc, currently $100 monthly.
I'll probably add one RA clip/montage for each Zimmer title as well, as a slow ongoing thing.
zoodles,
Chrisz
Well Doug, this is really great news. I have hoped that Zimmer would score Enemy Of The State ever since I heard about this film, but until today I have not seen any facts that he would score it. Even on th IMDB there is no composer listed. Let's just hope he delivers a dynamite score like he has done for the 4 other Tony Scott films he's been scoring.
Jon
I'm not happy I have to do this, but I feel forced that I
have to blacklist a MR. DOUG FRIEND of OKLAHOMA.
I have done probably fifty trades over the past year, all
over the world, and have never had a single trade go bad or
get lost -- except for my trade with Mr. Friend.
I should've known better. The first trade I did with him six
months ago was a disaster -- paid him for a compilation, took
a month to get (though he was sure quick to cash it), then it
took several more months for the artwork.
The current trade he says he never received (possible, but
unlikley), then he takes weeks to return emails, then when
he does return them, he doesn't even know/or remember what
the original email was for.
I've had enough dealing with him. Anyone else choose to
trade with him, you do so at your own risk. AND IF HE EVEN
THINKS OF ATTACKING ME, I HOPE THAT PEOPLE ON THIS BOARD WHO
HAVE HAD SUCCESSFUL TRADES WITH ME AGAIN AND AGAIN WILL RALLY
TO MY SUPPORT.
All the best,
Richie
Can someone tell something about the other scores of the Lion King
I have the original score with the Elton John songs
And like the songs of Zimmer/Mancina both instrumental and the vocal tracks
There also are albums called ³rhythm of the pride lands² and ³Lion King on Broadway²
Can someone tell me something about this CDs?
Is it worth to buy some of this albums, maybe both?
Greetings Samme
Just thought I would let you know that it is a terrific soundtrack by James Horner. It was just released today and I have been listening to it over and over. Mixes in some of his best. A little Rocketeer, a little Braveheart, a little Krull....and also adds some Spanish flavor (i.e. trumpet quartet and Flamenco Dancers) About 75 minutes long with a pop song at the end which will surely hit the radios soon. Go get it....so far I think it is one of his bests. Nothing beats "Field of Dreams" for me though.
Just a side note, I was watching Armegeddon last Wednesday and I noticed the Enemy of the State preview had Zimmer on its credits. Was this the first concrete release of this info b/c before I only heard speculation? Will he have time to do it what with Prince of Egypt and A Thin Red Line coming out too? I love that he is doing alot now because it seems like he really hasn't done anything big since The Peacemaker. (AGAIG was ok)
Doug
Bad news. Yumbo says that Trevor Rabin has said "no score release." Too bad a news for me, partially because Harry Gregson-William co-composed half of the score and I like his action-scoring style, ever so present in the movie. And because I like the score itself and Rabin's work on the movie, especially his patriotic theme.
If anybody here like to be able to do something about having a voice on the score release to this good score, there is a petition going on at Movietunes.com for you all to check out and sign up.

As far as I know, there is only one Soundtrack-CD of Armageddon.
It contains only one score track called the 'Armageddon Theme'.
C'ya.
Florian
I was wondering if anyone knows for sure whether or not there will be a score CD released for Armageddon. I sure hope so!
Thanks!
saw it yestersday and it is simply amazing. Trever Rabin's score is also good, very themetic , very emotional, especially in the last half an hour. strongly suggest seeing it, both for the music as well as the movie itself.
