Music from Troy Trailer

[KainG]

Does anyone know the name and writer for the music for the trailer of Troy? I saw the trailer the other day on TV again, and it kept bugging me that I felt I knew that music from somewhere else.

Thanks.

Nope, but I did note that the music on their flash site in the Achellies section is pretty darn intense.

I'll download it later and listen to it. I've kinda developed a strange obsession with movie music over the last few years. Most movie trailers use soundtracks from previous movies. The Gladiator soundtrack has been very popular lately, for instance. Last of the Mohicans has been played on a fair amount of recent trailers (The Missing being the latest one I noticed). A few years ago you couldn't go see a movie without hearing the Dragonheart theme in some trailer.

I seem to remember it being Gladiator(yet again) for the preview in the theaters...don't know about TV ads though.

Dead Can Dance and Lisa Gerard of DCD (since DCD broke up) have had a lot of their music in movies lately. Lisa Gerard was all through Gladiator, and has been the music director for many movies of late. I also remember hearing DCD's Host of Seraphim in the trailer for T3.

For those of you who don't know about DCD they were mainly the duo of Lisa Gerard and Brendan Perry. They did sort of the world music or new age stuff, that mainly Goths rather than middle-aged yuppies liked.
