Just as usual!

Hoy, hoy! I am not really a big fan of golf. Maybe when I am getting rich and old... Tho it's worth not swithing the TV right when you see golf broadcasting, because the main theme of PGA Championship was composed by E.S. Posthumus. The song called 'Burlingame' which is the official music of the championship available on Facebook.

Also E.S. Posthumus wrote the music for US Open for which you should turn on the TV, because matches of the championship just started and you probably catch E.S. Posthumus's tune. So E.S. Posthumus kept its good habbit to compose music for sport events. We are happy.

WoW: Not that one!

Hoy, hoy! Probably everybody is familiar with the abbreviation of WoW. Right? Yeah everybody think of New Zeeland's annual art show: World of Wearable. This is the island's well-known fashion art show featruing clothing, jewerly works of designers form all around the world.

The show which is most likely a theatrical preformance has its own music composition which was composed this year by Jo Blankenburg. The song features orchestra with choral sound that's why I thought it worth for your consideration. I realy love the piano. Its tune reminds me to James Howard Shore's Lady in the Water. Click here for a video of the recording session of the main theme.

Jo Blankenburg's music features in the trailers of "How to train your dragon", "The Wolfman", and scored several movies. He also mentioned on his twitter that he has worked on his trailer music album in the last few monthes and the recording session is going to be in this month, September.

TrailerHead:Saga Review

Trailerhead:SAGA is the second installment of public releases from the highly prolific production music company Immediate Music. The album contains 14 powerful tracks selected from Immediate’s previously studio released Themes for Orchestra and Choir series one through three. For those that don’t know or in case this is your first review of an album of such, allow me to briefly explain just who Immediate Music are and what it is they do.

Immediate Music are a production music company based in Los Angeles, California who specialize in composing and arranging music to score trailers for major motion pictures. Their music has only ever been available exclusively for studios and trailer houses. With an ever growing fan base of this genre of music, a small potential niche on the commercial market opened up. With Immediate leading the way, they released their first public album in 2008 entitled Trailerhead of which Saga is the follow up.  Read more>>

Greg's music has been featured heavily in sci-fi and action films, television shows, and recently video games, and we're incredibly excited about putting some of Greg's music out there for trailers. ADITM features 16 epic action/sci-fi trailer cues, and will also be commercially available shortly on iTunes.
