Trailer Music News presents the third and final chapter of the interview with Kaveh Cohen and Michael Nielsen; composers for the Full Tilt Library, distributed by Groove Addicts.

In this part Kaveh and Michael discuss the aspects that make composing for trailers unique, and what other projects outside of trailers they have worked on. They conclude with a message for their fans.

The cue "The Fallen", from their newest release Full Tilt: Rising, is used in the video. You can listen to more of their music on Facebook or Kaveh's MySpace.

You can watch the interview in HD below, on Vimeo, or on YouTube. (Part 1) (Part 2)

We did the interview at Kaveh's studio, but Michael was kind enough to send some pictures of his studio, and you can check them out below, by clicking to enlarge.

Groove Addicts has updated their trailer music website, to feature their new album Full Tilt Rising. As you know, Michael Nielsen, and Kaveh Cohen were working hard on it, and it appears that it's now officially been released. The artwork is stunning, and from the tracks that we've heard already in trailers, on Facebook, and on MySpace, the music is as well.

The website now has an 'Our Work' section where you can view trailers that have Full Tilt's music featured.  One listed is the Japanese trailer for Avatar, which uses the cue "End Game" from Full Tilt Rising.  Also listed are the trailers for The Wolfman, and Prince of Persia.

(On a separate note, I should say that the third and final chapter in the Full Tilt interview series will go live this month.  So sorry to keep you guys waiting.) [UPDATE: My computer broke a couple weeks ago, so it will take a little longer, as it's getting fixed.  Looks like it'll have to wait until the new year. :( ]

Here it is!  Tell your friends!  Spread the word!  The second part of the interview with Michael Nielsen, and Kaveh Cohen; composers for the Full Tilt Library, distributed by Groove Addicts.

In this part Kaveh and Michael discuss how they approach new releases, and the differences between custom work, and library cues.  Kaveh Cohen also shows a mock-up of a cue, and describes the process from composing to live recording.

The cue "Salvation", from their upcoming release Full Tilt: Rising, is used in the video.  You can listen to it in its entirety on Facebook or Kaveh's MySpace.

You can watch the interview in HD below, on Vimeo, or on YouTube.

If you missed the first part, you can watch it on here on YouTube.

Thank you Kaveh and Michael for taking time to do the interview!  Thanks to Ray Borda who conducted the interview.  Thanks also to Collin Perry for the awesome scoring session footage used throughout.  Sorry for the delay in getting it up, but I hope it was worth the wait. (Part 3 should be up within the next two weeks)

It looks like the fan support of the trailer music companies and composers is paying off.  Future World Music announced Aug. 20th on their Facebook page, that they will be coming out with a commercial release available to the public:

"Thank you all for your comments and inquiries.  Currently we are only liscensing music to the movie studios and trailer production companies.  However, we will be releasing music for sale in the near future.  Thank you again!"

It also looks like Kaveh Cohen and Michael Nielsen will be releasing an album with some of Groove Addicts' trailer music in the future as well. Kaveh said this in a post dated Aug. 14th at the Chasing the Frog forums, in regards to a public release of Full Tilt tracks:

"I can't tell you when it will be.  But... There will be one.  All the best, -Kaveh"

This is great news for the fanbase and general public, who would love hearing more of the tracks in their entirety.  Two Steps From Hell should be coming out with a public release later this year as well.

Hello everyone, and welcome back!  Read Tyr's post below this, if you haven't already. ;) While the site was under maintenance, we went live with the first part of a long overdue video interview with the composers of the Full Tilt trailer music library.

I'd like to apologize for the delay in getting this up, but it would take days to describe the technical difficulties I experienced. However, it worked out for the best, because Kaveh, and Collin Perry, sent me some tracks, and new HD footage from their most recent recording session in Seattle, for their newest release "Full Tilt: Rising". You'll find a bit of that at the end of this, and there will be more in the next part. Speaking of which, because I'm extremely busy right now, moving back out to California, the second part will go live next week.

Hoy, hoy! As you probably remember we mentioned that we organized an interview with Kaveh Cohen and Michael Nielsen. This time Michael Morone teamed up with Ray Borda to have a conversation with the composers of Full Tilt music library. Michael and Kaveh talked about their background, about the trends of the trailer music industry, about their musical aspirations, about some of their recent projects, and more. For some unseen technical issues Michael finished a teaser for the upcoming interview just today. Just for you. Just for now. Here on TMN:
