Well, Williams' Superman Theme actually "sings" SUPERMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN...
So, yes, one could easily notice that it was the Superman theme...

It´s not an attack on Zimmer´s music if I state my disappointment with the snippets of music that you can hear on the amazon-site.
Again, I hope that the full tracks will be better. But if you did not put up the title "MAN OF STEEL" for those samples - would you be able to say: this is the music for the new Superman movie? Would you even be able to say: This is a new score by Hans Zimmer, not a mix of all those Zimmer-scored blockbusters from the last decade?
That's exactly right. Again, they're just samples, but these could be samples from ANY of his scores.

Actually, very little synth - Moog here, a Zebra there...but the electronic sounds are eight pedal steel guitars joined by some titanium sculptures Chas Smith build for us. Bass pedal steel's where all strings are tuned to unison playing the bottom "A" on the piano. I wanted to keep it homemade, not electronic. Upright piano, nothing fancy.
But you will be able to download an app that lets you hear it all in DTS Headphone-x, which is full surround and height on your headphones by modeling my ears and how the score sounds through them with me sitting in my chair.
Always pushing the technology....
And there might be a few other nice things on there....
The cello is Ann-Marie Calhoun on her Stradivarius...

I certainly didn't expect to hear a cello from looking at the cover art.

Nah! It is pretty funny here.
And where else could YOR change messages with Butthead himself??

Recent in-"joke" with the board, David! Keep up, man!

A reaction to my complaint that a recently released David Newman score did not have a fully orchestral sound that I expected to hear based on the cover art having a Hellocopter on the front.
To some extent though, one would not expect to hear slower cello passages in a zimmer score based on some of his recent works. There is certainly none of that in Inception. This gives me hope that this film won't be as hopelessly dark as the Batman films.
Were you really expecting to hear a Zimmer score without a reprise of the Cello Army from PotC or Dark Knight?
