Thanks bud

 

[FN Spider-man]

No problem man

 

[SM71]

Nice find, dude. Thanks.

Is it weird that I held back in tears when I heard the main theme switch to a more piano voice? #whocares

It hit me in the feels at that point, too. Nicko, you're not alone.

Right there with you guys... as soon as I noticed that intro theme switched over to piano.... man, that was beautiful. I pray that's what he's planning on using in the film

 

[SM71]

Even the part right at the end, like when the text comes up at the end of the video. That part alone sounds pretty haunting and great... He really does never cease to amaze me

edit: if the score from that video is any indication, it may make it a little easier for me to let go of Horner's beautiful work on TASM. At the very least, his Peter/Gwen stuff which was outstanding... That's the one area I was worried about with Zimmer coming in, but the piano parts in that video...? Fantastic

Awesome. Good to know I ain't alone haha. Yeah man Zimmer is one of the greats.

I don't think the piano part at the end is Zimmer's? Not saying the track wasn't great, but does attaching attaching Han Zimmers name to something give the perception of being greater than it would've been otherwise? Same thing with the music used in the SDCC trailer. Sounded like Horner's theme but redone with a more electronic sound, so people assumed it was early work by Zimmer and claimed it an improvement over Horner (I think someone confirmed that it wasn't Zimmer's track though).

The video was done in collaboration with omaze for charity. It could've been a random ambient piano track that you could find a thousand times over on the internet.

The piano part is in the middle somewhere. It replays the main theme.

 

[Picard Sisko]

I wonder if the website music is the main theme?

 

[FN Spider-man]

sounds like it is

 

[Picard Sisko]

I can picture it being used in the opening titles. I love it, but I'm going to miss Horner's theme. I'm already used to hearing it whenever I see the Columbia Pictures logo.

 

[Nicko-Ray]

Pretty sure it is.

 

[SoNicRaDiATioN]

I liked what I heard there. Pretty sure the whole thing was part of the score.

I wonder what the opening titles will be like?

its not, Hans said on his twitter it was the first youtube video he's scored.

i think i missed that part, or wasn't really paying attention to it as I was more focused on what Hans was saying. This calls for a re-watch most definately.

 

[SM71]

Yeah the piano part we were referring to was in the middle of the video, and was a slower version of the main theme for sure. And it's obviously Zimmer bc he scored the video... The only question now is, was that just for the video or previews of what we'll see in the film

 

[Picard Sisko]

Could be a hint of what we get on film. Just wish they would confirm if its the main theme or not….

 

[White_Knight191]

I'm loving that piano piece right there. Great stuff. This is why I really like Zimmer, while he can score big bombastic action sequences, he's still outstanding at making quiet, beautifully light emotional stuff too.

Not saying Horner wasn't able to achieve that, but this just sounds really good already.

Zimmer is going to bring this movie to a whole new level imo.

 

[Marvel Spider]

I still think the main theme could be way better. The other bits of music sound good, though.

Agreed. Interested to see what he's going to do with the big action sequences since he claims he's gonna try to approach it differently this time.

 

[Picard Sisko]

I also think its great that we have a supergroup doing the score. More great musicians to inspire each other.

Yeah. Musicians with all types of backgrounds. Woo! I'm excited. Yay for diversity.

 

[Spideyfan117]

That music... wow. I want to learn that piano part now.

 

[SpideyK]

Wow. Gotta say Zimmer's got me pleasantly suprised.

'Dis gon be guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuud.
