Recording session footage of Brian Tyler conducting his score to "Battle: Los Angeles." / briantylermusic briantyler.com / briantylermusic / briantylermusic
I have always been a sucker for a good soundtrack, and this is partly why I enjoyed the movie. It reinforced how real everything looked and felt for me. What I wish I could find on youtube is a clip of the scene where the Marines are flying into LA and landing at the FOB. When I was watching the scene in the theaters showing the overhead battle in santa monica with the music playing, I was frozen on the edge of my seat with goosebumps. There hasn't been too many movies that do that for me. :)
Ever notice how crappy movies usually have amazing scores. All these dumb people overlook the entire epic score because all they pay attention to is the story. Give credit where credit's due though! Brian Tyler is absolutely incredible
I can't speak for anyone else, but back in 2011, I purchased the movie soundtrack as soon as it was released, but never got around to buying the movie. I liked the movie the first time I saw it because I wasn't expecting any of the realism or authenticity. But the second and third time, that's where I started noticing the shortcomings; but still enjoyed the score. It's very rare that I'll purchase a movie score, but not the movie.
For sure. When I first discovered Brian Tyler, I looked at his discography and thought: "Well, he only does generic action-y soundtracks to shitty blockbusters". But now actually listening to his work, he completely blew me away. Brilliant composer.
I've always admired how Brian Tyler is able to combine the more propulsive, rhythmic, and muscular styles of most contemporary composes from this day and age and the more traditionally symphonic and/or orchestral styles of composers like Alan Silvestri, Jerry and Joel Goldsmith, David Arnold, Marvin Hamlisch, David Holmes, Lalo Schiffrin, and (on occasion) John Williams into each other, as if they're virtually, if not totally, one and exactly the same. He's practically one of the greatest composers, if not the greatest composer, of our time. I'd totally hire him to do the scores to film and/or television versions of my work if I ever get or got the chance to adapt my stuff.
It's coming sooner than you think. Write down what you want, read your list to God, ask him ONCE for every thing you want, then trust and believe it's coming everyday. Stand in it, picture yourself getting it, and trust God with all your heart that you will receive it.....then just WAIT!
BTW, did you happen to notice the composer's name is Brian also, and if you look deep in his last name, TYLER...you could put your name in its place by removing the first and last letter of his name, unscramble it and add a L&S (Love Song) and there you have it....Brian Lyles, Composer of "Love Song" from the hit movie.......????? Start composing and be ready!
Know your music theory and know it well. Get Ear Master 6.1. It costs as much as a video game, but is something all conductors need to know. Distinguishing intervals and chords. Rhythmic Training by Starer is good to get as well, but be careful, because it's easy at first, but get VERY difficult from chapter 5 on. You have to set a metronome to a slow tempo, and switch from quarter notes, to 8th notes, to triplets, to 16th notes, to sixlets, septuplets, octoplets, duplets,and the difficult septuplets, and then switching back, Using a metronome will make sure you don't get ahead or behind when switching from say, septuplets back to 8th notes, which is VERY difficult not to do. Linda, it's hard work, conducting, especially counting rhythms ahead of time and being able to switch from conducting in 8ths to conducting in quarter notes. Know your music theory well, or your orchestra will not take you seriously. :)
LOL! Check out the choir scene starting at 2:23. In the front left, with the black hair and the gray button down shirt. Hahaha, his facial expressions when he drops his hand and eyes the camera are like: "Are we done already? Damn next time I'm gonna call in sick." Hahaha, it's obvious he loves his job...
do you know what Brian Tyler need? An A class Peter Jackson sort of director. Honstly most of his movies are "okay" or "good" but never more than that (except Bubba Ho-Tep). His scores are better than the actual movies! I say that because he's such a fantastic composer. He really deserves a movie which compliments his talent!
Know your music theory well, and I mean REALLY well. Conducting is more than just waving arms around, it's being able to lead the orchestra through simple rhythms, to syncopated rhythms, to hemiola rhythms, You have to hear every chord, understand every melodic line, and understand the cadence structure, phrase structure, period structure, and sentence structure, while also being able to hear when a musician makes a mistake. Leading an orchestra is tough, but when you know your theory, it makes it a hell of a lot easier. Get Ear Master, it costs as much as a video game but is essential to a conductor. Also, get the "Rhythmic Training," by Starer. Chapters 5-7 are the most difficult and require you to think of beats ahead of time (switching from triplets to 8th notes). It's hard work, but if you have the determination, go for it. Good luck!
Pretty cool, i wanna buy it. haha Im a music major, so I'm going through all the ear training now haha. Id say i know my lower levels of theory very well. lol
NevadaWPFan I have a Bachelors and Masters in music education. The things you mentioned are true. I need the foot in the door. Until then I'll keep building my brand and making the masses aware of my ability.
While the movie was a tad bit overrated, the music is UNDERRATED. :) I bought the soundtrack and it is incredible. The sounds of the movie mask alot of the music, but it goes great with the scenes. The calm part of "Abandoning Los Angeles is awesome. These songs play in my head alot when my life becomes fast paced. heheh
This 5:00 clip and the audio CD soundtrack are better than the movie. I have a great imagination so when I listen to the diff tracks I can visualize the movie as it shoulda been. Its wierd...but that's me. There were scenes I liked in the film dont get me wrong, but the movie rarely moved at the pace it does in this clip. :)
Bryan Tyler: one of today's top, albeit under-appreciated, film composers :)
SPECTACULAR MUSIC !!! THANKS BRIAN TYLER . FROM U.K. (2022).

Brian Tyler is one of my favorite composers of all time...

I need him to score my life. :P
I believe in venom 2
Hans zimmer and Brian Tyler.....best in the business.
"Music can have more meaning than spoken words; music can hold more emotion than a face can show; music is what drives our imagination, limitless."
One of the best war movies I've seen, without a doubt, music attracts you in battles and moments of tension
