Same here. The cue I want the most is “We Strike First”.@Edmund<br>I can’t agree enough. These remakes suffer from the issue of being inferior to the original source material, mainly because they rely so heavily on copying the originals so heavily. I’m not necessarily against Disney updating their classics if they are willing to do new takes on the material. Take Jungle Book for example; they were able to do something fresh with the concept while keeping elements of the animated film. Even Maleficent, which I’m not crazy about, tried something new. <br><br>Another BIG issue I’ve noticed is the fact that they lean towards hiring actors who cannot sing, or at least cannot sing on the level required. Emma Watson, Will Smith, Chiwetel Ejiofor, etc.Best shot <br>It wasnt meant to be<br>Home invasion<br>Ahab waves (0:39-end)<br>Permission to come aboard?<br>Ask the sea<br>Ahab waves (0:00-0:38)<br>Saving pops<br>Swimming lessons<br>Kingdom of atlantis<br>Legend of atlan<br>Ring of fire<br>What does that even mean?<br>Ocean to ocean<br>Obligation<br>Dunes<br>Map in a bottle<br>Black manta<br>Mera montage<br>Between land and sea<br>Trench engaged<br>What could be greater than a king?<br>Suited and booted<br>He commands the sea<br>Reunited<br>Everything i need<br><br>"Arthur" and "Atlantean Soldiers" are probably suitesJust want shrike death cue!I feel as though Menken did a bit more to differentiate his 2017 Beauty and the Beast from the 1991 one. The major pieces like "Prologue" and "Transformation" were left relatively intact but otherwise the rewrite was a bit more substantial than what Zimmer and crew did here. Compare the final battle music from the original (which consists to a large degree of upbeat instrumental versions of "Be Our Guest") to the remake (which is largely serious, straightforward orchestral action music). I haven't heard his new Aladdin so I'm not sure what the old:new ratio was there.<br><br>I'm not necessarily complaining, this is basically what I expected the score would be from the moment it was announced. The problem lies deeper, with the entire premise of these pointless remakes that allow very little wiggle room for freshness or creativity. Of course, I have no doubt this movie will make north of a billion dollars and give the Disney execs further license to print money. Maybe by the time they've remade every single film in their vault enough time will have passed that they can just start from the beginning again and nobody need ever be subject to the indignity of an original story ever again.
It's a variation of the theme Anthem from the first Top Gun film by Harold Faltermeyer.whats the name of the song being played in this trailer?<br>is it available onlineThis is the perfect companion piece to the original. It is like the high level concert version that Zimmer never did with the original Lion King.Is there any form of chronological order to the original with the deluxe tracks?Looks like your wish was granted ;)<br>
It's out for me and "Ask The Sea" is exactly the cue I wanted :D It's so good! I actually tweeted at him asking if he'd consider including it in the release - he didn't react to my tweet then and now I wonder if he read it or he planned to include it all along. <br><br>I've only seen the movie once and I haven't listened to the score much so I need to revisit it soon.Thanks, that's great!!<br><br>Hooe those sessions will be here soon. Still a lot of music music. Would have liked it better if those remixes, were actually score tracksMera Montage is the big rock vocal cue used during the Sicily Battle & the Wine scene.<br><br>Home Invasion the opening soldiers barging in to capture Atlanna, as well as a part of the Black Manta / Orm negotiation scene.<br><br>Saving Pops is... the saving pops scene...<br><br>Ahab Wave is the tsunami scene + and when Aquaman arrives to the sub to fight Manta's gang.<br><br>Ask the Sea is when Aquaman refuses to help Manta's dad.<br><br>Olbigation is the soft piece in the plane when Aquaman & Mera talk.<br><br>Dunes is the comedic Dunes slide scene...I just want the Sicily Battle music!Having seen it I can say visually it is incredible, definitely a work of art on that level. What sets it back (for me personally) is the lack of a strong emotional core. The choice to make the animals realistic looks great, but doesn’t have the same range that the hand drawn version had in terms of giving the animals the facial characteristics like the original. Soulless might be kind of harsh, but I didn’t feel anything throughout. Also doing a shot-for-shot remake probably wasn’t the best approach. <br><br>Musically though; this definitely was a great reminder as to why the original score is still a classic. Like everyone has said, it’s a perfect companion piece that actually fixes some minor flaws and fleshes out some ideas much better. Some important cues missing though.
“Ask The Sea” <br>Oh please be the cue I want...Deluxe edition releases tomorrow<br>http :// filmmusicreporter .com /2019/07/18/aquaman-deluxe-edition-soundtrack-to-be-released /Didn't Menken do much the same with Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast? I think the only ones who have been the most original with the scores to these remakes have been Danny Elfman and John Debney.<br><br>My personal view is this serves as a great compliment to the 1994 soundtrack, not an outright replacement. If you combined the two you'd get quite the meaty soundtrack.<br><br>As for the film itself, I highly doubt it will be as 'great' as the original, but that's not to say that it deserves the slating critics have given it either. I personally can't say - I haven't seen it yet.Recently in China, a movie was released called Looking Up, and the soundtrack was released with Steffen Thum's score and main theme/additional music by Lorne Balfe.I have to agree. It's a stellar score and I love it, but it was written 25 years ago, nevertheless.<br>Still, credit where credit's due, as you mentioned, the new 'Stampede' is a beast of a track, really added to the original, as well as the 'Battle' cue, awesome stuff for sure. <br>Haven't seen the movie yet, but I really hope it measures up, at least in the same way the score does.

I didn't post it first to tease anyone (not in a bad sense anyway).

I just posted it because a couple of "covers websites" had revealed it before...

But basically I don't add secret stuff to H-Z.com, not being the first at least...

@Andrew

That's right, a bit weird, as the guy says he's been asked not to share it and at the same time is asking to drop him emails...

Maybe he just wants to be beheaded by his source...

@kakashi

... And I don't want to be beheaded myself... :)



And, as for the eternal question, 2 CD or 3 CD ? Let me tell you, the original bootleg (you can see it's actual tracklist on a cover at LostScores blogpost) is 2CD indeed, but it's the complete score as heard in film (including 25 min of (sometimes TERRIBLE) source cues/songs), so didn't contain all the unused/suite material featured in the OST...

So the 1m4 Dirty Cash (Unused), 2m13 Halfaway To Hong Kong (Unused), Interrogating Schiff (Alt intro), Batmobile Chase (well, I should have added it to the bonus as "New Batman Theme", it's actual name, I might change it someday...), End Credits from OST CD 2 & the Joker / Dente / DK suites are from the OST and not in the bootleg... What I basically did here was to compile so sort of ultimate thing... Simple as that...

Yes they are...

I've got the sheet music of TDK and a friend capable of "reading" music, so he confirmed those cues were where I put them !!


As for Batmobile Chase, as I said, I put it there as it sounded it should have been there, but it's not... It's not even an unused cue, it's a theme suite called "New Batman Theme" or "Action Ice Theme v7". If you watch the chase with "Like A Dog Chasing Cars", it just doesn't work ! :P

Damn I sound like Jack Sparrow... :O

Wait so Dirty Cash, Interrogating Schiff and Batmobile chase are on the OST?

Is Batmobile Chase in the correct place?

I know Hybrid is always hiding something. :)
And I also know how he feels about these bootlegs, I would do the same.
For us "minions" we should be lucky that such bootlegs even exist, and have the rare oportunity to get
our hands on them.

Enough said. Or maybe someone else.

Hi. People, I never offered to share it here. I know thats against rules. Hybrid, go back and read my comments. There is nothing there.

All I am offering to do is confirm to people that this is indeed real, once I get it. I dont have it yet, and I have been actually been told not to share it.

Do people need any confirmation ?

I added it to the site 4 months ago, even added extracts myself... I've never fooled anyone on this site ! :P

As for a leak, it's not up to me, sorry... There's nothing I can do from this point... I just know that now, a lot of people have it as well... I'm actually surprised it's not "out" yet... Looks like for once people followed orders... But as always, it'll be all around sooner or later anyway...
