I had someone in a white car drive up to my street and spy on our house for 20 minutes. I was worried it was you

Or a drug dealer not wanting to spread his business.

....seriously, WTF, CaptainJackSparrow? That's just not normal. Do you know how anonymous the internet is?--And how anonymous it should remain in a lot of situations??

Was it that?

Also.. there are bigger things to worry about at the moment
S&P downgrades U.S. credit rating - Aug. 5, 2011 (http://money.cnn.com/2011/08/05/news/economy/downgrade_rumors/index.htm?iref=BN1&hpt=hp_t1)

Honestly, it's the recording companies that are the problem. I just don't know why they wouldn't want the scores released, it'd only bring them more promo and business.


I don't understand this. Why don't they want their product getting out? It's like a coke dealer not wanting to spread his business

It's not as simple as "record companies don't want to see these scores released"... not by far. It actually has a LOT more to do with legalities involving musician royalties, publishing fees, copyrights etc. And on top of that they have to be ABSOLUTELY sure they will make bookoo profit. Businesses are not in business to produce something that might not generate profit. Period.

Take the score to the original Back To The Future film for example. The biggest reason that more of the score wasn't released for 20+ years was due to how much they would have had to FIRST pay EACH & EVERY orchestral musician who played on the score recording. It was a phenomenal amount that each musician would have had to have been paid initially AND in subsequent royalties. Apparently this was due to one sweet contract that was written up at the time, but regardless...

The only reason we were fortunate enough to receive the wonderful 2 CD edition released in 2009 from Intrada was because of their commitment to only release an extremely limited number of copies (3,000 I think). Thus some one putting up money for the project (a producer iow) wasn't going to financially break them.

That's just one example, but you see it has little to nothing to do with the popular conception that records companies just don't wanna see it released. That's bullshit. They're a business. If they're sure it'll make 'em money, they'll produce it. BUT they have many legal hoops to jump through AND have to be certain it'll make 'em some bank.

This exactly. Much of the time it is the musician fees that are the cause of longer albums not getting out there. Companies like Intrada can do it because limited (>5000) releases are not bound to dues (or at least not nearly as many). Big commercial releases need to well be COMMERCIAL and that means most fucktards who want to buy the POTC4 soundtrack wont want every note (those guys are also kind of creepy in their own way) and will instead be perfectly happy listening to a couple good cues (as really much of the material is re-orchestrated old stuff) and then some techno remixes.

Wonderful!!! I am in your eternal dept!!!

Wow, what's in the Eternal Department? I've never been to that part of the store!

:p (j/k)

It must be similar to the 'Beyond' part of Bed, Bath, and Beyond as depicted in Adam Sandler's Click!

No no no, the beyond section is where you walk through the doors and float around until you find the coffee mugs lol. I was gonna post the clip from Family Guy, but cannot find it =(

Thank you for this score in FLAC

Wait, it was posted in flac?

Wait, it was posted in flac?

But user Vosk posted...

Sorry to burst everyone's bubble but the flac version of the 2-CD set is transcoded from lossy sources, most likely the mp3 320k set. I had one of my music buddies test it and confirmed it was from a lossy source.

wow, cool

I'm new to score releases, can someone please point what the notations are?

14. 2M5 Boat Leaves Harbour (1:54)
15. 2M6A Bruce Hangs Poster (0:46)
16. 2M6B Jimmy (1:33)
They start with a #, all have an 'M' (movement?), and some end in 'A', 'B', or 'S'?
Thanks!

2m5 = Reel 2, cue (m) 5
2m6a = reel 2, cue (m) 6 and I forget what a or b would equal. S = 'source' as in source music, like a song

No problem. So for example - this is from the Dark of the Moon Sessions:

5m42 - Megatron In DC (3:10)

Reel # 5, cue # 42 "Megatron in DC"

I've had so many versions of this score in expanded/complete/etc.
Found a couple in FLAC, but none of them were true lossless; only the tracks off the retail album were true lossless.
Adobe Audition views weren't promising for any lossless version.

Anyone have Audition screenshots of the lossless version posted here??
Sorry to burst everyone's bubble but the flac version of the 2-CD set is transcoded from lossy sources, most likely the mp3 320k set. I had one of my music buddies test it and confirmed it was from a lossy source.I don't know if I believe Vosk; I don't have audition but I was able to get create some spectrograms. I only chose two tracks, I can do more if you'd like. Check it out (below).

The first track (t40,CD1) is the first three images and the next (t41,CD1) is the next three images. The first image in each set is the spectrogram for the flac file, the next is the spectrogram for the mp3 version (obtained from first post in this thread), and the 3rd image in the set is the mp3 converted to flac (to test if it "adds" any details).

We can see in t40 in the spectrogram that it starts to cut off ~22kHz+, but the mp3 version (and the mp3->flac is exactly the same as the mp3) starts to cut off ~20kHz and is missing some detail (look at the 140sec mark and at 220sec when it starts to fade out). Track 41 is less obvious, but it's still missing some.

My unprofessional conclusion, there is a true FLAC source, and the one posted (on page 3 I think) is it. However, all the sources that were used to make the compilation were not lossless, so the FLAC version doesn't sound any better than the lossy source it came from, BUT the mp3 version is a double conversion from lossy to lossy (mp3 -> FLAC -> mp3). Therefore, I'm keeping the FLAC version!

Everyone likes something different. Clearly RotF & DotM are not your taste. That's fine.

Lmao Rotf and Dotm are just as good OSTs...

i like 1 & 3 more than 2.
2 is okay.
i think the LMW&TCOPPO Trilogy album should've covered more from 1&3 than 2.

I don't know if anyone has ever posted this info so, if anyone has, never mind, if no one has, here it is.

A piece of music that isn't in any of the many versions of the score is the music used when Bumblebee is shooting Brawl from the back of the tow-truck while Mikaela drives it. While downloading a batch of tracks from X-Ray Dogs (who made one of the tracks used in one of the trailers) i found one of them very familiar. �f it's not the music used in that scene it's pretty damn close. It's called "Heavy Stuff" from the album "Hellhounds". Can anyone confirm this? :)

I thought that when I found that bit of music I'd be hearing unreleased music, as I've theorized that trailer music could be the origin of some still-missing cues. But I should have known better when you described the scene. ;) I would have suspected that the music playing there is somewhere on the album and isn't actual score. I haven't watched the movie in a while, but I'd have to agree with you that, from memory, it sounds similar. There actually is a piece of score that was originally supposed to be used in that scene. It's included in Takehiro's expanded arrangement from the score, found here: Thread 96227. It's track 18 on disc 2.

Yes, i read that it was meant to be used there but ended up not being used. The track i mentioned, as i've said, if it's not the one it is very, very close.

I have seen Transformers probably more times than anyone here. When Bumblebee is shooting at Brawl, its "Doomsday Clock" by the Smashing Pumpkins that's playing.

not quite sure about that... i have it on my PSP... so yea

but... yea... it is Doomsday Clock

Thanks a lot, one of my favorite scores.

The link to Disk 2 isn't working, any chance of fixing that? Thank you.

Doesn't look like it Jason. I was hoping someone would restore the link to disk 2 also.

There are other better versions of this same exact thing, I don't see a need for a reup as the other links are still active to my knowledge. this score is easier to find then sand in a desert xD

Would anyone happen to have "Road Reunion", the cue that's simply a sped-up version of Scorponok? It seems I accidentally deleted it cause it was in a random folder on my HD, which I thought had nothing in it - so I deleted it. I cannot find it anywhere....

I will have to disagree with you on that. While there are higher quality versions of the main score (with slight variations). However, your disc 2 contains a load of unused demos and such that I've never seen anywhere else--not the All-Spark Edition, not KaFaraqGatri's new edition, nowhere. Now, there has been some debate as to whether those demos and unused cues are actually Transformers music, but I know for a fact that "Call to Arms" is (it was used in some radio drama that can be found on the All-Spark Edition) and "Tense Action" was as well (early on when Blackout arrives at the military base right before "SOCCENT Attack").

Your disc 2 is actually the whole reason I decided to become a member here--so, I think it would be worth it for someone to re-upload at least disc 2 for those who were late to the party.

alright, Ill see if I can track it down. New computer, different files, new rules haha

thanks dude!!

Yeah. Please re-up disk 2. It would be greatly appreciated!!!

Could someone re-up the FLAC, pleeeeeeaaaaaaaasssseeeeeeeee!!!!!!!

Ummm, who posted it in FLAC/where did you see that? Besides, anything you download in FLAC--from this thread at least--isn't true FLAC. Are you one of those FLAC-heads?

Page 3, post #52, and yes, I prefer FLAC

That link is to Mega-Upload, which no longer works (as of about a month ago I believe).

great release, and thank you for the first CD, but seeing that the second cd is not working, i would like it if someone could re-upload it again :)

You know what I just now noticed about this thread title? "Official" is misspelled: "Offical". Someone should re-upload disc 2 for all the people who were late to the party.

We don't have the recording sessions of this one, right?

Yes we do, they were released some while ago.

Anyone can post a working link?

I was wondering if someone could help me out with a question. I've just started finding all these complete scores, and I'm loving it, because I'm a massive music buff. Having the originals never did enough for me. HOWEVER, I'm confused at some of the terminology.

What's the difference between Expanded, Complete, and Recording Sessions? Can there/is there one of each for every movie? Does one include everything another has? Do they each have something different? I have a nasty completionist side that is crying out right now. Thanks in advance for the help.
