It's happening!
Category: Music
Well, guys, you've been asking for it for so many years, and I am happy to finally come back with a positive answer to the question: "Can I buy your music?"
Globus has taken some of Immediate Music's grand orchestra and choir cues and, after a year of recording and mixing, have emerged with the album EPICON. Some recognizable trailer cues are on the 14 song album, among them a new, extended and glorious version of LACRIMOSA (new title "Preliator"), which, as some of you may know, was heavily featured in the SPIDERMAN 2 theatrical marketing campaign. There is also LUCIUS DEI (new title DIEM EX DEI), featured in THE ISLAND and DA VINCI CODE, sung by two powerful female vocalists along with the Abbey Road choir and a slamming rock band. The album will enjoy a broad release in the UK on July 24, 2006. The album will also be available on iTunes and other online stores worldwide on or around this date.
I'm excited about sharing this music commercially for the first time, but Globus isn't really just about selling CDs. I've always felt that some of today's compelling orchestral music is produced for films and trailers, and that there should be ongoing possibilities to see and hear this music performed live. Globus will be performing the album, plus a few Immediate Music trailer favorites, live at Wembley Grand Hall just outside London, on July 26. We would love to greet some of our fans at this exciting event, which will feature large orchestra, choir and band, featuring world renowned musicianship! Tickets will soon be available from
