DC Comics Animation - Soundtrack/Music News & Discussion Thread, Part 2 (Possible Spoilers)

[ShadowStar]

That's awesome that you are going!

All that great DCAU music performed live...It sounds amazing. I'd love to see a concert like this in the US. I would go in a heartbeat!

I'll be interested to see what you thought of it afterward.

Thanks, I'm really looking forward to this! As you say, it will be great to hear their music performed live... Not to mention that I'll get to meet them! I'll definitely post my thoughts when I get back from Poland!

The Mystery of the Batwoman soundtrack is coming out on the 29th March!

I'll definitely be getting this. Maybe Chase Me will be included in it too...

Hopefully this will sell well enough to guarantee complete releases for Return of the Joker and Sub-Zero. This is a nice tie-in for Batman v Superman, anyway.

Maaaaaaybe...

 

[Riddler]

I will certainly pick this one up! Thrilled to see any and all DCAU music get released.

Been a long time since I watched Mystery of the Batwoman, will have to revisit it in the next couple weeks.

 

[Spider-Man]

I was hoping we'd get to see the score to Sub-Zero released soon but this is also good. I don't remember alot about the movie's score as I haven't watched this movie in years but I do remember it was synth and not an orchestra I think. I also noticed the cover art inaccurately tags this as a DC Universe Animated Original Movie, which its not.

 

[ShadowStar]

Lolita Ritmanis must have been teasing this release when she said last Summer that there was "some amazing stuff coming up soon". I guess Batwoman was meant to be released in 2015 but was postponed.

I can't make any promises at this time, but Michael McCuistion's SUB-ZERO score is DEFINITELY something we want to release in the future!

The "DC Universe Animated Original Movie" copy is, to the best of my knowledge, simply a branding thing. Though MOTB was produced before that precise phrase was in use, it does remain DC, animated and an original movie.

The BATWOMAN score uses synth for many of the orchestral parts, but also features piano (performed by Lolita Ritmanis) and an array of live solo woodwinds (performed by John Yoakum).

To add to what Mr. Takis said, that was the branding for DTVs before the DC Universe one came along included the likes Brainiac Attacks and MOTB. They still use it on movies like the Batman Unlimited. It's just weird nomenclature. Like Warner Home Entertainment is sometimes still going by Warner Home Video.

La-La Land Records has provided the track listing and additional details on the forthcoming Batman: Mystery of the Batwoman soundtrack release. Click on the image below for further details, including the track list.

Stay tuned for additional coverage.

 

[ShadowStar]

Glad to see that Chase Me is on there too! I'm looking forward to this, and to other DC animated releases that hopefully aren't too far off!

 

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

I'm thrilled that they are releasing this one. I have always enjoyed this movie and in particular it's score. I can already hear the opening credits music as I type this. Back in 2003 when our animated Batman was mostly running around saving the world from annihilation, it was so nice to get sometime a little more intimate and light.

It would be a crime if Sub-Zero is not released as soon as possible, along with an expanded Return of the Joker to complete the DCAU movie releases.

I would have liked 'Betcha Never' to have been included, although I'm sure many aren't too upset it's been left out.

 

[John Takis]

I'm very pleased that we were able to release "Chase Me" alongside MOTB. It's a marvelous short score!

Just in case anyone here was not aware, "Betcha Never" has been commercially available since 2004. You can find it on Cherie's self-titled CD, and digitally through outlets such as iTunes and Amazon.

This is great news! Hope they keep them coming non stop

Easter egg surprise for all

Coming this spring

[ShadowStar]

I'm grateful for La La Land's effort in releasing the rest of the material from the first 65 episodes! Thanks, John!

And I like the sound of 'Arkham Archives' - creative name!

 

[Riddler]

FANTASTIC! Very happy to see Vol. 4 confirmed.

In the same FSM thread, MV Gerhard of La La Land confirms that STAS Vol 2 isn't happening any time soon: http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/boa...5&forumID=1&archive=0&pageID=156&r=166#bottom

As a fan of the DCAU I want it all out there, but as a business man I need to look at the sales. BTAS performed exceptionally well, but Superman barely broke even. We do have plans to release other DCAU titles this year and beyond but I don't know if another volume of the big blue boy scout is in the cards.

MV

To be honest though, I'd rather see releases for The Adventures of Batman and Robin and Justice League first anyway. So I hope those shows will get their due before long. And I'm thrilled about BTAS Vol 4!

It goes to show that it's never a good idea to take these releases for granted. Your support is vital. Additional releases of Shirley Walker's THE FLASH and SPACE: ABOVE & BEYOND might have happened, had the titles sold better. We could easily fill four more CDs to the brim with phenomenal SUPERMAN music -- really tremendous stuff, including several Batman crossovers. Will I get the chance? I don't know, but if you haven't yet picked up the first volume, it certainly wouldn't hurt! Please consider adding it to your order of BATWOMAN or BTAS Vol. 4.
