Here is the April dose of fresh trailer music! Although, with 51 albums, lagging somewhat behind the record-breaking month of March, it doesn't fail to deliver a wide variety of genres. Whether you're in a triumphant mood and celebrating, or, on the contrary, more of a melancholic mood and in need of some uplifting tunes, this post definitely has something for you. But most importantly, the month of April marks the return of J2 – the master of epic covers! It's been 4 years since his last trailer music release and 6 long years since the last entry in the Iconic Series, after having produced no less than 8 albums in this series just between 2014 and 2019 alone. The brand new 9th volume offers a fresh batch of trailerized remakes of a dozen oldies ranging from late 1960s to early 2000s, so everyone will probably identify a song from their childhood on this album. Let the belated Easter egg hunt begin!

With the summer vacation season in full swing and the usual slowdown in the production of new music this time of the year, I think having found 45 new trailer music releases from July can be deemed a success. The selection offers a broad range of genres, so whether you're looking for something epic or not so epic, I'm sure you'll find something to your taste. Hey, you'll even find a couple of epic Christmas music albums, if that's your thing to listen to in the middle of the summer. With that said, I'm sure you can't wait to go ahead and explore the new releases, but let me do the usual introduction of a first mention on Trailer Music Hub. This month it's Twelvetones Production Music, a Hungarian label with nearly 80 albums in their catalog. In 2023, it was merged into Schubert Music Library, which is where you can find and listen to Twelvetones' entire catalog. Unfortunately, not a whole lot of their music is available for streaming, but I'll keep an eye on any future public releases and report them. Enjoy the new music!
Ready for another dose of trailer music? The month of May saw the release of many new albums, 54 of which you'll find in this post! That's a long list to go through (second longest this year, in fact), so I'll keep the introduction short. The only newcomer to Trailer Music Hub that I have to announce this month is Dodged A Bullet, a UK-based production music company. Since its launch in 2021, DAB's library has grown to 64 albums, so if they keep up the pace, I think you'll see new releases from them fairly regularly in these monthly blog posts.
A great variety of genres awaits you among the 48 April releases introduced in this post. Besides the usual menu of epic, suspenseful and reflective trailer music, you'll find here albums incorporating synthwave, neofolk and world music in a cinematic fashion, as well as the first Christmas trailer music album of this year! But before I let you explore, let me make a few introductions to the blog. Two composers, who should need no introduction among trailer music fans, release their debut solo trailer music albums: Nick Phoenix, one of the two founders of the legendary Two Steps From Hell, the era of which is now, sadly, officially over, and Paul Dinletir, the co-founder of Audiomachine, another legendary trailer music company. Another newcomer to Trailer Music Hub is the Swedish composer Ron Morina, who releases his second solo album, 9 years after his debut "Days of Tomorrow".
