And probably the most memorable of all is his use of the low trombone crescendos. Also in the song is his powerful use of percussion, synth gate patterns, and his stylistic ostinato string patterns. I can't believe he can just use two notes to make a theme so memorable. He introduces his simple but powerful two-note theme in this track. A classic is his "Molossus" track from Batman Begins. And my favourite example is the music he did for Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy. He keeps revolutionalizing the way that film music is produced. I’m a huge fan of film music, and even more a fan of Hans Zimmer. So start taking this style of music apart and see how you can compose your own slant on trailer music. This can include a mix of orchestral and synthetic elements. So often the key with trailer music is getting to the point fast and adding as much impact and dynamics into it as you can to hold the viewer's attention and sell the story. Later in the track the solo female vocal adds a softness to the manic elements. And it's crazy how they get so much pace from this track with the instrumentation used. There are awesome dynamics in this track. Then there is a breakdown, and then it kicks back in with a male choir and an even faster strings ostinato. It starts with an awesome string ostinato. Brass stabs are also used to heighten the intensity. The track includes huge string sections that build up at around 1:10, and big boomy percussion is introduced to increase the intensity. Take a listen to the following track to get an idea of their level of music composition. They put together the Two Steps from Hell albums, which are collections of their trailer music compositions.
For action and adventure types, for example, you'll find short high-intensity tracks are used to help drive these trailers. And that's because different tracks are used for these trailers. You'll often hear different compositions in trailers compared to the actual movie.
