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.

This summer continues to be very productive, as far as trailer music is concerned, allowing me to write about another 42 new releases this month! August saw the release of four debut albums by History Tones, Extreme Music's new label oriented toward historical documentaries. Similar to its sister docudrama labels Earth Tones and Space Tones, the music for History Tones is produced by Hans Zimmer's Bleeding Fingers collective. In addition to that, J.T. Peterson released his second album this August, after his debut in 2019. This is also the first time I introduce an album by Mama Dance!, a South African production music company founded in the 1990s (with their catalog published under the name Afro Musique outside of South Africa). Finally, Non-Stop Producer Series is another veteran in production music, whose music I only started listening to recently and have thus a lot of catching up to do, nevertheless I introduce their most recent album in this post. I hope you have fun exploring new music, including the above newcomers to my blog!
To start off an epic summer, you'll want to check out the 34 new releases of trailer music from the month of June that I compiled below, including this year's first (and hopefully not last) album by Two Steps From Hell! Everyone knows TSFH, but let me introduce a couple of new names on my blog. Jack Trammell, who releases music on the Position Music label, is back with a new epic album after two years. After an even longer break – five years, to be precise – this month brought us a new album by Les Friction, a project of Evan Frankfort and Helmut Vonlichten (the latter of whom you may remember from E.S. Posthumus, formed by Helmut and his late brother Franz back in 2000). The music of Les Friction – infused with rock, pop and electronica, and featuring vocals (which Les Friction refer to as "rock opera") – is somewhat different from the albums I typically mention in my posts, but epic nonetheless! Enjoy!
Here is the April trailer music update! I'm keeping the more structured format of posts for now, which allowed me to compile a summary of over 40 albums for you this month, across a wide range of genres from reflective drama, to fantasy adventure, to hybrid action. Check it out!
