I thought it’d be interesting to ask the guys in Two Steps from Hell the same questions that I posed to Carol from audiomachine to see how their processes or attitudes might differ. Their albums have been top-sellers in the iTunes Classical section for over two years, and recently their Google search popularity was on par with famed film-composer Hans Zimmer– no small feat!

In the world of viral videos, the art of film and game trailers has taken on a life of its own– and there’s good money to be made composing the “cues” for those previews.īut how do you get into the film trailer game, find licensing opportunities, work with studios, and deliver quality music on a deadline? Villain Song: " He Who Brings The Night" could count.In Part 1 of this series, I interviewed Carol Sovinski of audiomachine, a boutique music production house that creates music for film and game trailers.Or how about their spin on the Superman theme?.Perhaps not surprising considering Thomas and Nick contributed additional music to the score of On Stranger Tides. They've ripped off Hans Zimmer's Pirates of the Caribbean scores not just once, but twice.
The Jimmy Hart Version: Quite a few tracks sound a lot like famous movie scores, ranging from blink-and-you'll-miss-it references to downright plagiarism.Thomas has also released a solo album, Illusions. So far, they have released two commercial albums: Invincible and Archangel. Unfortunately, they are only given to movie producers. Headed by Thomas Bergersen and Nick Phoenix.
