The winter is over in the northern hemisphere, and with it the first quarter of the year too. Time flies. But that's a good thing because it means another news post is here, packed with 49 new trailer music albums released in the month of March! 37 out of them can already be streamed on most platforms, with a few more albums possibly becoming available over the next few weeks or months. The rest can be listened to on the respective trailer/production music companies' websites, or those of their distributors, with links included in the post as usual. Perhaps somewhat unexpectedly, Songs To Your Eyes is tied with Amadea Music Productions for the highest number of new non-sound-design trailer music releases, with both having six albums featured in this post. Well, since I have no blog newcomer introductions to make this month, let's just dive right in, shall we?

The February batch of trailer music is here! You'll find 47 new albums in this post, with the usual mixture across the whole spectrum of genres from epic/hybrid action, drama and adventure to more toned-down, but definitely still cinematic, genres including investigative, mystery and reflective drama. One genre that I noticed to be more prevalent than usual in this post though is epic hip-hop, both instrumental and featuring vocals. And one of these albums is actually by a debutante at Trailer Music Hub – Fearless Motivation.
Happy 2026 from Trailer Music Hub! Wishing you all a prosperous year, especially in terms of trailer music! The first news post of the year features 51 new trailer music releases. Curiously, that was the case with 3 out of the last 4 January posts. As I mentioned a few months ago, I started being more picky about which albums I include in these monthly posts, so as to keep the amount of work more manageable and stop falling behind with the posts. I'm planning to stick with this strategy in 2026, so gone are the days of posts with 60+ new albums, but you can expect roughly 40-50 releases every month. You can always find more new music by browsing the catalog. I hope that sufficiently satiates your trailer music appetite throughout this year!
The month of June followed in the footsteps of the earlier months of this year in terms of trailer music productivity. With 58 new albums, this post will keep you and your ears occupied for a while, I hope! Curiously, there were a surprising number of horror- and dark fantasy-themed albums released in June... is Halloween happening early this year? Oh, and that's not the only peculiarity in this post. Amadea Music Productions had, for a very long time, been the undisputed leader (at least among the trailer music companies that I cover here at Trailer Music Hub) in the number of new non-sound-design trailer music releases month after month. Not in June though! Audiomachine took the crown with 7 new albums! Mainly thanks to a bunch of new releases in their Studio Series, but still... Finally, a quick shout-out to Inon Zur and Jon Adamich, both of whom released their first solo trailer music album in 3 years. Good to see you back!
It was only back in March that I wrote, for the first time, about more than 60 new trailer music releases in a single post, but guess what, the May post already beats that with 66! Alright, I know you're not here to read about breaking records every other month though, so let's talk trailer music! In this post, you won't find any introductions of new trailer music companies or composers, just a whole lot of new music from the usual suspects. I'll kick it off with two quick highlights though. First, Amplitude released a new album, "Epic Showdown", after one and a half years of silence. Although only available to the industry, just like the rest of their catalog, hopefully this marks the return of Amplitude to releasing new albums regularly and, eventually, perhaps a public release too. Hi-Finesse, on the other hand, released one of their recent industry albums to the public. This is a very rare occasion, considering Hi-Finesse albums can't be listened to anywhere unless you're a client, and their only other albums available for streaming are two greatest hits compilations from 2016 and 2021. Alas, let's be grateful for this unexpected public release and hope for "Hits, Vol. 3" in 2026!
Year after year, February doesn't fail to deliver an amount of new trailer music on par with the full-length months. Moreover, the collection of 53 albums in this post features a great variety of genres, including epic blues, cinematic americana and medieval fantasy, as well as some borderline cinematic genres that only occasionally make an appearance in these blog posts, such as symphonic/folk metal and synthwave, and even a few albums with strong world music influence. Oh, and in case you were missing some new blood on this blog lately, you're right, I haven't introduced any new composers or trailer music companies in a couple of months, so I'm going to make up for that by introducing two in this post!
The last month of 2024 saw a surprising bounty of new releases, considering December is the winter holiday month. Well, I'm not complaining to have been able to listen to 47 new trailer music albums, I just hope folks from the production music industry got to take some time off and spend it with their families! Speaking of holidays, don't miss Thomas Bergersen's "A Christmas Carol". Besides that, the December selection offers just one magical fantasy album and a couple of epic fantasy ones. Honestly, I feel like some of the earlier months (including July!) had more to offer in terms of holiday atmosphere. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the final batch of trailer music releases from 2024!
As we entered the holiday season in North America, November saw a marked decline in the amount of trailer music produced. You'll find 47 new releases in this post nonetheless, which I hope satiates your trailer music thirst for the next month. November being the Thanksgiving month, you'll have no trouble finding albums with reflective, uplifting and inspiring music here. At the same time, with the approaching winter holidays, it is no surprise to see a couple of epic Christmas trailer music albums in the selection below either.
With the summer over, we're back to over 50 new trailer music releases this month, 51 to be precise. The month of September brought us the first non-sound-design release from Liquid Cinema this year, and the first cinematic release from Noise Refinery in two years. Among the rest of the albums, you'll find some rather unusual genres, such as cinematic funk, as well as horror renditions of Christmas classics. But before you scroll down searching for these, let me quickly introduce Montage Music, as this is the first time I'm writing about this boutique trailer music company. Although they specialize mostly in sound design, a few of their albums are actually suited for listening, with the latest EP also being the case. Alright, go on now and explore September's goodies!
The summer continues with 47 new trailer music releases from the month of August. Besides the usual genres, you can look forward to discovering some albums incorporating cinematic americana, neofolk, neoclassical dark wave, and a couple of epic hip-hop albums as well. This time around, I would like to introduce Kerry Muzzey, an American composer who has written music for movies, TV shows, documentaries and even a ballet. In addition to that, he has released several contemporary classical and trailer music albums over the past two decades, including a series of "Trailer Music" albums debuted in 2007 and with the fourth and the latest installment released in 2019. His most recent album – the second volume of the "Docu" series, released in August – is a compilation of tracks that ended up not making it into any visual media, but I would say the music is no less worth a listen. Anyway, check out for yourself!
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".
Are you ready for a trailer music galore? February brought us an exceptional bounty of 60 new releases, especially considering it's the shortest month of the year (although, admittedly, it was one day longer than usual this year). The vast majority of these new albums is available on streaming platforms, and I expect at least a few of the remaining ones to become publicly available too in the near future. It's a lot of music to explore, so I'll keep the intro short. Let me just quickly introduce 3 new names to Trailer Music Hub, and you can then dive into the sea of trailer music below.
Welcome to the first trailer music news post of 2024! Curiously, just like last year's January post, this one also brings you 51 new releases, which I think is a fantastic start to a new year of cinematic music! Amadea Music Productions had a particularly productive month, having released 9 albums, which must be the most I've ever seen a trailer music company put out in a single month. Another highlight of this month is Jo Blankenburg's Dune-inspired album Sirocco, somewhat bizarre, but mesmerizing and definitely epic, and a perfect listen to get yourself pumped for Dune: Part Two coming soon to theaters! And it seems like some trailer music companies started releasing albums of triumphant and anthemic music geared towards the Olympic Games taking place this summer.
Here is the final batch of 2023 trailer music releases! December being a major holiday month, trailer music production slowed down substantially, but you'll still find 36 brand new albums in this post. And 3 of them are by trailer music companies I never mentioned on Trailer Music Hub before! The first among them is Epic Soul Factory, launched by Cesc Vilà and Fran Soto all the way back in 2011. December saw the release of Alpha, Epic Soul Factory's first album since Sigma, their successful 2015 release. Next introduction goes to Synapse Trailer Music, which has been around only since 2018, but already boasts a catalog of over 100 albums. The Blue Devil, along with the sound design release Dr. Tick Toxic 2, were Synapse Trailer Music's last releases of 2023. And finally, let me introduce Omniscore, an exciting new collaborative project of Antti Martikainen, with the first release from December – Crimson Saga – being a stellar collaboration with Ian Fontova. Hope you enjoy the new music as much as I did!
