There are 53 new trailer music albums waiting for you in this March post. You'll find here the usual mix of epic and hybrid music, ranging from action to mystery to inspiring drama. If you seek something closer to mainstream but still cinematic, there are several albums of epic pop and hip-hop, as well as some symphonic rock/metal, dark synthwave and cyberpunk music here and there. And if you're just hoping to relax to some cinematic music, you won't be disappointed with the selection of reflective drama and ambient albums! Finally, I have one quick introduction to make. The trailer music company 3db Music was founded in 2022 and has released one album per year so far. Only their debut album, Ddaear, is available to the public as of now, with the other two being industry-only releases. You can still check them out on 3db Music's Source Audio page though! Have fun exploring all the trailer music below!

Entering the vacation season hasn't changed anything about the rate of trailer music coming out this month, so there are 48 albums waiting for you to be explored below! After last month's four introductions of newcomers to my blog, I only have one for the month of July, despite the number of new releases in this post. The Spanish composer José Manuel González Núñez has been composing cinematic music under the name "Sounds of Neptune" for almost a decade now. After two solo piano albums earlier this year, he now releases a 3-track EP of reflective cinematic music that I encourage you to check out. And actually, there is a second introduction I should make too: The Lorne Balfe Collection, a brand new Audio Network trailer music library (or "collection", as Audio Network calls it). However, since this library didn't just release one debut album, but six of them, I thought I should write a separate short post on it. So stay tuned!
Exciting news: there are exactly 50 new trailer music releases waiting for you in this post! That makes May the second most fruitful month of this year so far. But, before you start scrolling down and listening to this bounty of new music, let me briefly introduce Maximum Impact, one of Audio Network's libraries, created in 2017. The library boasts 13 albums composed by the likes of Mark Petrie, Erick DeVore and Harry Lightfoot, with the most recent one released just this May. Most of their albums are available on streaming platforms, so check them out if you have any spare time remaining after listening to the 50 albums below. Enjoy!
This April's post features 45 new releases, spanning the entire spectrum of trailer music genres, from epic/hybrid action, to inspiring/reflective/emotive drama, to fantasy adventure, with some albums offering a fusion of cinematic music with synthwave, Nordic neofolk or world music. This time around I only have Florian Bur to introduce, a Swiss pianist and composer, who previously also produced cinematic music under the pseudonym Tunes of Fantasy. He released his first couple of albums back in 2013, but his newest release, I'm a Dreamer, comes after a 4-and-a-half-year hiatus. Glad to see you back, Florian! That's it for the intro, have fun exploring new music!
Get ready for 49 brand new trailer music albums from the month of March! This year so far has been incredibly productive on the trailer music front, so much so that I have a hard time keeping up with all the new music, and have only had little time to explore new labels and catalogs. I still have three new introductions to make! Giant Apes Music, a label published by Really Slow Motion since 2014, released the first public album – an almost 90-minute compilation of tracks from several of their previous industry albums. Similarly to RSM, Giant Apes Music albums unfortunately don't get released to the public, not even years after being released to the industry, so this is the best we can hope for, I suppose. Next, Scorched Score is one of those labels that only produces albums sporadically, and this time they released three albums at once (first new music since 2020). Scorched Score, established in 2011, is a label under the UK-based Deep East Music, which was acquired by BMG Production Music a few years ago. Finally, I found a new release from Tenth Dimension, a Sencit Music catalog with its first album dating back to 2009. Go ahead and immerse yourself in epic and cinematic music!
It doesn't come as a surprise that in December music production slows down drastically, thanks to the holiday season. I still managed to find 29 new trailer music albums released in this last month of 2022 though! Among them is one new release each from Iván Torrent and Mattia Turzo, neither of which is an entirely new name on my blog, as they compose music for various trailer music companies. Iván Torrent has previously composed music for Audiomachine and Really Slow Motion, among others, and Onyria is his third solo album that came out almost exactly 5 years after his previous solo release. Mattia Turzo, on the other hand, has released several solo albums under Tony Tobolt Records and contributed music to the catalogs of Colossal Trailer Music, Glory Oath + Blood, and several others, including Position Music which released his most recent solo album, Prateria. Enjoy this last collection of new trailer music from 2022!
Ready for a fresh batch of trailer music? Although we are slowly approaching the end of the year, with 42 new releases, November shows no sign of music production slowing down. In fact, this month you will even see 4 first mentions on my blog! First off, one of the very first trailer music companies I ever listened to, Future World Music (founded by Armen Hambar back in 2004), finally released a new album after two years. A much younger trailer music company that I only recently discovered is Jolt Trailer Music, started in 2018 and distributed by BMG Production Music. The next introduction is Gabriel Brosteanu, who just had a sequel to his 2019 album Supernova released by Position Music. And finally, I came across a new release by PP Music, a once very productive trailer music company with only a handful of albums from the last decade though, and this latest one came after a three-year break. I wish you a wonderful voyage through the sea of epic music that lies ahead!
This September post continues the streak of 40+ new trailer music releases per month, so you'll again have a bunch of music to explore! Besides the usual menu of epic action and adventure with dramatic thriller and investigative drama, among the 43 albums below you'll also find some Nordic neofolk and world music influences, as well as an album or two with cinematic rocktronica and classical crossover music. The primary representative of the latter two genres is the fifth album of Tatsuya Oe's award-winning Dark Model project of orchestral-electronic music, which debuted with its eponymous album back in 2014. I also report a new release by The Hit House for the first time, although this company has been around since 2005, so you could certainly call them a veteran on the production music scene. Alas, there are only 24 hours in a day, and a man has got to work, eat and sleep, so I suppose there will always be trailer music companies out there that I only discover a decade or two later. Good for you that you have someone discovering epic music for you! ;)
Whether at home or on vacation, you're probably here for a re-up of epic music. And I have plenty of it for you this month: 43 new albums! Among them you'll find a couple of new albums by Audio Attack, a production music company founded by Michael Maas in 2020, offering three separate catalogs titled Production Music, Trailer Series, and Epic Single Series. Another first mention on my blog is that of Neogarde, one of BMG's more recent trailer music labels introduced also in 2020. Finally, July saw the release of four albums by Inon Zur, a video game composer probably best known for his award-winning score for Dragon Age: Origins and its sequel, scores for multiple installments of the Syberia and Fallout video game series, as well as Crysis, among many others. But enough of introductions, let's listen to some music now!
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!
With the spring in full swing, trailer music is back in bloom and I have 38 new albums for you to check out, coming in a wide variety of genres ranging from the usual epic and hybrid orchestral music to synthwave and rocktronica. I hope you find something among them to quench your thirst for cinematic music!
In this March post, I bring you 33 new trailer music albums. I know, that's a drop from the January and February numbers, perhaps because of spring break travels. Moreover, a half of them were released for industry only, at least for now. I expect at least a few of them to become available on streaming services sooner or later, and I will make sure to update the post with links accordingly. In the meantime, you can still preview these albums in their full length on the licensing websites linked throughout the post!
Being the shortest month of the year, February certainly exceeded my expectations with the 39 new albums I discovered over its course. You'll find the usual mix of genres among them, as well as a few new names that I never wrote about in a previous post: Sybrid, World Beyond, and a solo album by Or Chausha, whom you might know as a composer for several different trailer music companies. Without further ado, here is the music you've been waiting for!
This month I'm introducing 41 fresh trailer music albums and EPs, with the majority being the usual epic and hybrid orchestral action/drama/adventure, but you'll find a great deal of more subtle reflective, emotive, investigative and ambient drama too in the collection. Help yourself to the music of your choice below!
Kick off the summer with 45 new trailer music releases! Whether you like action and adventure, or suspense and mystery, or emotive and inspiring music, there surely is something for everyone in this collection of fresh cinematic music. Now, go on and put some music on!
