Apocalypse Scoring Age of Apocalypse - The Soundtrack/Music Thread

[JP]

You know the percussion is loud when the video feed of the conductor is vibrating so hard that it's blurry. #XMenApocalypse

Awesome news.

That first part of trailer music for the second trailer really does sound like Ottman's X-Men theme slowed down and simplified. Not only would that music really fit Apocalypse as a character, with the heavy electronic sound with some classical instruments mixed there.

The only thing is, Ottman hadn't even started recording the score when that trailer was released. If it's music from the movie, it must be a demo.

If it is, He must have done at least a demo of it by the time that trailer came out, they can't leave it all to this final recording session.. quite late to record the score for the first time. I think it sounds a lot like the X2 theme.

The cover art for the X-Men:Apocalypse soundtrack has been revealed on amazon. However, track list and samples of the score aren't available yet.

Love it.

 

[EnDz0n3]

Can't wait!

Apparently I can wait.

It's good. It means fans get to experience the soundtrack for the first time together with the movie, as it was meant to be.

 

[Smilodon]

I never thought of it that way, but you're so right.

It's wishful thinking, but I do think it'd be cool to hear the Logan and Rogue theme again. Maybe use just a bit of it somewhere and turn it into a love theme or something.

 

[psylockolussus]

It's wishful thinking, but I do think it'd be cool to hear the Logan and Rogue theme again.

Only if they feature those two together in a film again.

I never thought of it that way, but you're so right.

A wise man once told me that so I'm just repeating it.

It does make sense.

 

[Takato]

Can't wait to hear Ottman's soundtrack within the film.

 

[Leo Zelinsky]

Is there anyway possible to get the TAS theme remixed for the end credits?

June 10th? D=

Ugh. I wonder if he will keep the X2 theme like he did in DOFP.

No question about it. Ottman and Singer like musical continuity, and have mentioned before about keeping the same feel.

DOFP had some 70's flare, can't wait to hear what Ottman comes up with for the 80's

They would need to ask Marvel since they own the cartoon series.

I love listening to the score before the movie arrives... love to imagine the scene with the music. Im very very curious about the score..

Im listening First Class..there are really great themes here. Sometimes on soundtracks there are one or two themes and the rest is just to fill the scenes.. but in First Class almost every track is a theme, and good ones.

 

[siberia82]

Does anyone know if the early '80s-sounding electronic music playing in the background of this clip is an actual song, or did Ottman compose it?

Ottman Interview, some light spoilers from the beginning of the film, but nothing shocking IMO.

[psylockolussus]

Well at least Psylocke's name is used in the name of a track.

 

[Blackout]

i wonder if they put an Egyptian element into the X2 theme!
