Hans Zimmer started on INTERSTELLAR

I've been listening to the score in anticipation of the film. Well really I've been dragging my fingernails down a chalk board. I figure the effect is similar.

Another possible instance of Zimmer music in the video on this page. Might be spoilery (concerning visuals at least). At the end it segues into what we heard in the teaser, which we know is part of one of his demo suite thingys. Seems like it might be more from that.

I hear a trumpet... and woodwinds!

We already know the organ stuff is him from the teaser (which is what you hear at the end of that video) and the IMAX trailer. What isn't as clear is the stuff for the earlier part of the video. But as I'm listening to it I'm getting convinced.

So, to recap.

This is Zimmer:

This is 99.99999999% Zimmer:

Hmmm the first half sounds more like trailer music then Zimmer. Or at least it doesn't seem to match up with what we've heard so far...

Honestly, I'm really pumped for this score.

I thought it was trailery at first too (first minute and a half), but listen to the way the lower chords are voiced... it's classic Zimmer! Plus that piano sounds like one of his, the synthy string ostinato sounds like Zebra... and the simple harmonies are treated just distinctively enough to sound like more than generic library music.

That choral line at 2:38 is very nice....

Gettin' a little excited here. I'll laugh my ass off if neither this nor the IMAX stuff is his though. :lol:

Didn't Hans say he wanted everyone to hear the music first in the theater?

Yeah. Seems that he changed his mind or the studio had other ideas. Or my musical judgement has become radically impaired and someone is doing a great Zimmer impression.

I take back what I said. It does sound like trailer music (the bit with the ostinato). Someone pointed out that that section was used in an earlier, shorter version of this featurette, and hearing the rest of it, it is incredibly generic. So either Hans had a lapse in judgement or it's some random piece shoehorned in. But I do believe the rest of it is Zimmer.

OST CD is up for pre-order on Amazon UK

http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00OTB14SI/

Can't find it on Amazon US yet.


Anyways, looks like they are choosing to drop the CD 2 weeks after the film's release, rather than before the film is out.

He is.

He's jittery in front of crowds. Guess what, so am I! I've seen him play in less public settings and he is good. He's not a virtuoso or anything, but it's not like he's totally inept. Come on. The man has been around keyboards for nearly his whole life. Let's not assume things just because we're not fond of certain composers.

"For oomph, drama and all-important awe, meanwhile, the director is falling back heavily on the gifts of a long-time collaborator, Hans Zimmer. The film alternates the actual total hush of dead space – take that, Gravity – with the vast sounds of a composer set loose on his grandest ever assignment. But it relies less on Straussian majesty à la 2001 than something rather more pointed: the hypnotic, metronomically surging, and oddly sacred homage Zimmer gives us to Koyaanisqatsi, by Philip Glass."

No excuse!!


It should be pointed out that the iTunes listing says "Deluxe Edition" and the total running time of all those tracks is 1:26:29, which is longer than fits on a CD, and we know from the Amazon listing that the physical OST is only 1 disc.

So either a 2CD Deluxe Edition is forthcoming, but not up on Amazon yet - or, the extra music is an iTunes or digital-only exclusive.

If it's a case of iTunes only material, my guess based on the titles is that 1-16 represent the score in (roughly?) chronological order, and the rest are the "bonus" tracks which are drawn from different parts of the film. Just a guess.
