I just wanted to pass along how much I enjoy Hans' music, as well as the website. It's a wealth of information for his fans, and it's also nice that there are profiles on some of the key musicians who Hans collaborates with as well.
One artist in particular, guitar virtuoso PETE HAYCOCK, has always been a favorite player of mine, and I applaud Mr. Zimmer for his great taste and judgment in choosing Mr. Haycock to add his considerable guitar talents to the several soundtracks they've worked on together. It was also great to hear many of these artists perform LIVE with Hans for the "Wings of a Film" concert; a lovely sampling of his great soundtrack work.
I was fortunate and blessed to have Pete Haycock provide all of the music for a documentary featurette I made recently about the Hollister Independence Rally, an annual motorcycle rally that has attracted more than 120,000 people to this small central California town for a 3-day celebration of "The Birthplace of the American Biker". The DVD is entitled "HOLLISTER 2005 -- THE OFFICIAL RALLY DVD", and Pete's music really raised the bar for the visuals to aspire to match. The DVD helps raise donations for a local Hollister-based shelter for abused women and children, and we were indeed grateful to Pete for his kind involvement.
Equally cool was the fact that this DVD project inspired Pete to go back to the studio and extend some tracks -- and add some others -- which resulted in his amazing recently-released 13-track CD entitled "BIKERS' DOZEN"!
For those of you who have enjoyed Hans' scores for "Drop Zone", "K-2", and "Thelma & Louise", among others, you'll likely recognize the sounds of Pete Haycock's magic fingers working the fretboards on several tracks. If you like that (and who doesn't?), then you should check out "BIKERS' DOZEN" -- it's a dynamic collection of some of the best guitar-driven compositions out there, and a must for any fan!
For more information about the Hollister Rally DVD, you can go to the Pelicam website at: http://www.PelicamProductions.com
And, for more information or to order Pete's "BIKERS' DOZEN" CD, you can go to his official website at: http://www.PeteHaycock.com
Thanks again, Hans, for all of the amazing soundtracks you've produced -- and that we've enjoyed -- over the years! Keep up the stellar work!
May I ask a question? Could a man have no self-respectful heart? Why? Thank for answering me. Could a man has no self-respectful heart when he was born?
Is e-mail for new information out of use ? I could not find it in your site. So, I wrote here.
I found interviews.
Mark Mancina interview ( Japanese ) http://anime.excite.co.jp/blood/iv/iv_mark.html
He came to Japan for promotion ( Blood+ soundtrack ). This soundtrack have a good reputation in Japan. CD shops often pick up this CD by composer's name ( Hans Zimmer and Mark Mancina ). It is rare in Japan. I wish many Japanese know RC's music by this CD. Regrettably many Japanese people don't care almost about soundtracks. They don't even know composer's name.
Klaus Badelt interview ( By M-AUDIO.com ) http://www.m-audio.com/index.php?do=artists.interview&ID=a5d0f97525f4fb6ab32b1d5db48a0f16
People, you will not believe what horrific foundings came to me. I heard this song by Gustav Holst called Mars. A part of it sounds exactly like the battle theme in gladiator. Say it isn't so Hans. I had so much respect for you. Somebody please listen and tell me im wrong cuz i really liked Hans. Here is the link, listen to it all and you will be shocked! http://www.aquarianage.org/lore/files/mars.mid
we should create this page in german too, because Hans Zimmer is german nationality! I'm from Switzerland and can speak and write german, french and english. Maybe I could help you; creating Hans Zimmer Page(s) in german/french.
Truly loved the score, we purchased the DVD & "standard" OST CD! (it unfortunately leaves out alot of the songs & incidental music we really wanted to hear from several artists - Badly Drawn Boy, Maroon 5, Charles Trenet, you, etc - why was that?) Any plans for a "complete" expanded release of the OST?
Would love to get our hands on the expanded version, if at all possible. Please email responses to: ursammg@optonline.net.
I am a twelve year old pianist and guitar player. I write music a lot, I have never heard music that has moved me as much as Hans Zimmers' "The Well". This music is beautiful and makes the movie so much better than it already is
not a feedback but more a question. does anyone know if sheet music is available for the theme song to the Contender. i can't find it anywhere. thanks.
why is the biography written in French? it will take me ages to translate it! I can't find a biography as big as this one. I need it for an essay.
does anybody know where to find it perhaps?
thank you.
Dear HZTeam,
The Team of RC Prods has been a great inspiration to me. As a composer myself, RC Prods has motivated me in many ways. The music the team has created has been very close to my heart since a young age. Hans Zimmer of course is a hero and role model to me. His music comes from his heart and thats what i admire. I have been composing since i was young on the piano. RC Prods has motivated me to learn the tech part of music. The RC team has shown me that through music production, composing music can expand and mold into different cultures, styles, colors..... I am currently in process of getting a personal production studio so that i may take my music to the next level. Your music has influenced and touched me greatly.
Thank you RC Prods Team!

I am beside myself now that I have found this web site. I was listening to The Last Samurai soundtrack and I was wondering why I was so mesmerised and satisfied by its hypnotic content. I decided to surf the web in search of anything Hans Zimmer, low and behold I came across Remote Control Productions. Now I know that all the music I was fasinated with like Gladiator, Hannibal, The Lion King, The Last Emporer, Prince of Egypt all came from the genius of Mr. Zimmer. As an amateur composer, I draw intense emotional inspiration from his works. From one Virgo to another, Thanks for the enjoyment!!!
OMG! I was checking this feedback comments on this page and read the comment by Shadee Nassar below. I am amazed on how beautiful his music is. People u must check out his link. If his music was orchestrated it would be magnificent!. Shadee i give you my props. You will go far with your talents. Sorry Hans, now to compliment you. Your music is excellent. I wish your bio was in english though. Im a great fan of hans. I can't wait for Divinci code soundtrack.
Yoshiki is one of the greatest composers and and musicians of the probably the past 20 years. He created a social phenomenon with his break all the rules hard rock band 'X Japan'. Since then he's produced many original artists in both asia and the US and Europe.
He was asked to compose and play a song on the KISS tribute album. He's also received many honours in Japan such as writing and performing a song for the Emporer's 10th anniversary and more recently the 2005 Aichi World Expo theme song.
He is now perparing to unleash his talent on the world music market with his long time in recording "--VIOLET UK"--. A project more ambitious than Axel Roses Chinese Democracy album.
You will hear and see more of this man very soon~ so stay tuned
