  • Full Track From Hans Zimmer’s Man Of Steel Soundtrack For Your Ear Holes

    Will anything be greater than John Williams’ Superman theme in terms of comic book movies? I will say no, but I’ll be damned if Hans Zimmer is not making a case for his theme from Man of Steel. Now you can go listen to a full track from Man of Steel. It is the music that was heard in the last trailer which begins with a piano solo and works its way up to a finish worthy of Superman.

    You can listen to the track here

    Man of Steel releases June 14th and the [amazon_link id=”B00C2U6G7C” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]soundtrack[/amazon_link] will be released on June 11th.

  • Rock Band Store Dies At 5 This April

    While the release of new music games has pretty much been put six feet under Harmonix has been releasing weekly content to their ever expanding library. Now, it seems, that it can fight no more.

    April 2nd will be the last week of content release for the Rock Band store bringing to an end an impressive five year run that saw the release of over 4,000 songs over 275 consecutive weeks. They are currently having a sale on over 1,100 songs at 50% off so people can keep filling out their Rock Band libraries.

    The company released a small statement on the Rock Band forums:

    “We hope that you’ll all agree that this has been a tremendous run, and you should know it’s a ride that we at Harmonix have been thrilled to be a part of. We’re going to continue to support the forums and RockBand.com and hope to still see you rocking out online, in photos of Rock Band parties shared on Twitter and Facebook, or here on the forums. Whether you waited in line for a midnight release of Rock Band over 5 years ago, or you just joined the party with Rock Band Blitz… whether you’ve downloaded every single song we’ve ever released, or you’ve just played on disc songs until your neighbors moved away… whether you’re a metal shredder, or a bubblegum pop singer… thank you for being a part of our band.”

  • John Williams Would Like To Compose The Next Star Wars

    Legendary film composer John Williams has thrown his hat in the ring and gone on record saying he would like to work on the next set of Star Wars films. He said this found on jwfan.com:

    “We’re about to play Star Wars [audience interrupts with cheers] and each time we play it, I’m reminded of the first time we played it decades ago. Neither I, nor George, nor anyone else involved thought this would go far or in a few years there would be a sequel and I’d have to revisit the themes…and years later another trilogy. Now we’re hearing of a new set of movies coming in 2015, 2016…so I need to make sure I’m still ready to go in a few years for what I hope would be continued work with George…[more cheers].”

    I hope by continued work with George he meant Disney and J.J. Abrams since George Lucas is probably at most going to be an advisor on the next set of films. We all know Abrams is a huge Star Wars fan and getting John Williams would seem like a no brainer, but let’s not also forget his relationship with composer Michael Giacchino who has worked with Abrams on Alias, Lost, Fringe and 2009’s Star Trek. He also won an Oscar for his score of Disney’s Up. Fanboys would cry bloody murder, but I am pretty sure they would get over it. And who’s to say that having some new blood wouldn’t yield greater returns?

    Send your hate for that last paragraph.

  • Amazon AutoRip Gives You Free MP3’s Of Your CD Library Since 1998.

    Amazon_logo

     

    Amazon has just added a literal ton to my cloud player. Today they have announced their new service called AutoRip. The basics of it are that for every CD you buy on Amazon.com you will have a free MP3 copy sent instantly to your Amazon Cloud Player. This means that while waiting on your CD you can listen to an MP3 version of the album instantly and then transfer it to any of the Apple or Android phones or tablets you happen to own.

    The real big deal of this new service is that Amazon has decided to reward longtime customers and give them MP3 versions of albums they have bought since the beginning of Amazon Music way back in 1998 for free. So for people, like me, that have had Amazon accounts for quite a while (2002 for me), you will now have every CD you have bought delivered to your cloud player for no charge. This is a great bit of fan service that amazon did not have yo do but I am very thankful they did. Go check out Amazon.com/AutoRip to see exactly how the service will work.

     

     

  • Listen To The Hobbit Soundtrack In Its Entirety

    Middle-Earth Music For Your Ear Holes.

    December 14th is quickly approaching which will see the release of Peter Jackson’s return to Middle-Earth in The Hobbit. Now you can listen to the entire soundtrack thanks to Rolling Stone.

    The soundtrack is composed by Howard Shore who did the music for Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings Trilogy as well. I have been listening to it all morning and have had a smile on my face the whole time. It is good to hear the music and remember back to how wonderful the LOTR trilogy was and it has me even more ready for The Hobbit.

    The Hobbit opens on December 14th and the soundtrack will release on December 21st.
