On that note ... after snakes in Raiders, various bugs in Temple Of Doom, rats in Last Crusade and army ants in Crystal Skull I wonder if Dial Of Destiny will have any 'EWWW, critters!' stuff in it.   

I've got a few ideas:

 

The Dial sends the main characters back in time 250 million years to a beach swarming with... horseshoe crabs!

 

 

 

Alternatively, they're flung into the far future in which earth has been taken over by giant.... tardigrades! (They can survive in space dontchyaknow)

Short of an actual tracklist, I'm almost surprised we've got an entire thread out of this!

 

I say 'almost' because JWFan is fully capable of exciting discussion based on the most mundane of headlines 'Composer makes album' and precisely zero additional information.

Not if they have spoilers 

[Jay 35,467]

No I'll start a new thread

[Smeltington 1,315]

I just wanna know the release date!

[Jay 35,467]

Why is there any reason to think it's anything other than Friday, June 30th?

Nice. Well I will keep checking this thread until we know for sure! Otherwise I'm opting out of Indy 5 threads. Too much info about the movie out there!

This one specific thread is meant to be completely free of film spoilers, even after the film is playing everywhere

Isn't that the release date of the MM complete JW Star Wars boxed set?

 

I heard someone's birth year as being in 2027 last night, no maybe time is more fluid than I think.

I need this album. Gonna be crazy when it comes out

Seems that one of the album tracks will be titled "New York, 1969" and one of the trailers used a snippet of it.

[Cerebral Cortex 3,338]

"New York, 1969 (From "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny"/Trailer Version)" might be the clunkiest Williams album track title we've ever gotten. I haven't even listened to the track yet, but going off the title alone combined with the minute of action music in that one clip that was hard to hear, I'm ready to call this score a complete disaster. Very disappointing effort from the Maestro!

To clarify, I jokingly asked what this was because it popped up randomly on YT

[Jay 35,467]

Funny thing is its on John Williams "official" (?) channel, which I thought was run by Sony (?)

 

Is this this not a channel "run" by anyone, but where youtube automatically puts certain uploads?

Yeah I believe the way Topic channels work is that music credited to that person in YouTube's backend copyright database get a video copy automatically uploaded to the corresponding channel. That's why "Various Artists - Topic" is a nightmare with tons of random stuff by unrelated people, anything with more than one creator in YouTube's backend gets uploaded there

[Jay 35,467]

OK that makes sense, thanks

If we had to post a single JWFan post to Reddit, that one would have the best chance making it to /all. And while I realize now that might not seem like a compliment and/or might not make any sense, do know I find it fucking hilarious. Legitimately iconic.

Sounds like a note-for-note copy of the Raiders March! Man, I've had it with all the self-plagiarism. Seems like Williams just couldn't help himself!

 

On a more serious note, this recording seems to have a lot more "punch" than the KOTCS one. I also can't hear any trace of the C major chord for the violins and violas which the latter begins with.

[Loert 2,423]

Peak film-music fanatic moment. We have a short clip from 40+ year-old concert piece which has been played and recorded to death by professional and amateur orchestras alike, and someone decides it's worth taking up 17 seconds of Youtube's video storage just because it was in a trailer. It even has an out-of-tune timpani to boot. Just because you could...doesn't mean you should. </rant>

[Jilal 561]

Weird how it's titled "New York, 1969". I'd expect the Raiders March to be presented as a standalone "Raiders March" track or as part of an "End Credits" track.

The title is the biggest clue that it's real.  Why would they call it anything else?

[Jay 35,467]

There's a lot of weird stuff in the youtube description:

What does UMG have to do with this, since the OST album will be on Disney Records?  Does UMG still distribute Disney's titles overseas, is that why?

[Taikomochi 1,098]

My feeling is someone just made up the title because they knew the movie partly is in NY and takes place in 1969. Could be wrong, but it’s as easily made up as it isn’t.

All recent Disney Records titles were distributed by UMG.

 

Examples:

 

 

 

 

All of those mention Universal Music Group.

I ran this sample through AudD and AHA, a couple of Chrome music recognition tools (like Shazam, but recognise non-commercial tracks too) and both came back with this exact title but no album cover, which tends to happen with library music. Hence the track it's from is in some music database somewhere.

 

If this is a sample of the last track on the album, that makes sense, but why 'Trailer Version' is in the title is just weird, unless Williams has bizarrely opted to name an album track like that.

Maybe its for an upcoming TV spot.

Pretty sure it is. The credits look legit, Shawn Murphy, Patricia Sullivan, Ramiro Belgardt, the usual JW crew!

[Archive Collection 203]

My guess is that it’s a segment from the soundtrack album that has been designated for people to use in TikToks, YouTube shorts, other short-form social content. I.e. it would be available on these apps as a sound that can be used. That would certainly explain its short duration.
