Filmation soundtrack to be released on CD in May!

**Fright Zone** · April 17, 2012, 04:10am

Amazing how quickly I went from pant-wetting excitement upon seeing this news on the main page to massive disappointment after reading on and seeing it was just the previously released tracks.
I will probably still get it to show support but like many others I am still clamouring for the superior later/She-Ra tracks.

Absolutely, I fully agree!

You can preorder it at amazon.fr

I think, I'll get two copies. One to finally have those tracks legally and the other one, if not for any other reason, than to keep price of purchased goods under the shipping costs (shipping for one copy would be over 2 euros higher, than the CD itself).

Will this CD be available outside of France? I can read french about as well as I can speak it.

**musclor.fr.st** · April 17, 2012, 12:53pm

I don't know if this CD will be available outside France.

The process on Amazon.fr is the same as on Amazon.com .

Those of you who may experience troubles in ordering it at Amazon.fr, should contact me.

Best regards

Amazon.fr does ship CDs almost everywhere in the world (unless the page lies).

A little disappointed because it is not what we are waiting for. But! Of course I'll get it. I hope for cd-quality sound.

**Spacedust** · April 19, 2012, 06:40am

Kinda like others, I was so excited when I first saw this news that I nearly dropped my bowl of Coco-Pops. Then as I read on and found that it's actually a re-release of the old Spanish soundtrack, the disappointment set in.

Don't get me wrong, any kinda release is welcome, but for those that have the vintage soundtrack (by fair means or foul ... ahem) will surely agree with me that, not only is it not complete, but includes a couple of little-used "durge" tracks (Meditation, for example) in place of some of those catchy and iconic scene music scores that we love so much.
Personally I hope that this release might sell well enough with collectors that it proves there enough interest to finally release some kinda more "complete" soundtrack (at least including a couple of those more famous tunes!). Oh well...

Oh? I musta missed those

Any ideas where one should not look for such highly illegal recordings?!

**oICEMANo** · April 19, 2012, 08:43am

So it wont have all the cool battle tracks?

Only if they'll really consider releasing more, if they weren't just saying that to boost the sales.

**Eternian Poet** · April 19, 2012, 11:33am

Wasn't there someone piecing all of the music together on Youtube?

Or is this thread about the same people?

Yes, there was this one person, but he was forced to remove the videos and he has now deleted his whole Youtube channel. You can read all about it, from the other (stickied) soundtrack thread. This thread is about the official re-release of the (not even close full) soundtrack, that was released in the 80's on same parts of the world.

Sweet, they're putting out a Mysterious Cities of Gold disc as well. Another one for the collection.

**DJScorpio** · April 22, 2012, 11:14am

This company probably has a licence from Filmation to release this compilation. Whoever has the copyright to the music will have to allow it to be released.

Translated the French to English and this is what the following page says:
Your cult series finally on CD!
Reissue of original 33 rpm albums of your favorite shows of the 80s
at very special price!

Filmation went out of business over two decades ago...

**jeffjaco1175** · April 23, 2012, 10:37am

Will it be on Itunes?

**EuroCoin** · April 27, 2012, 01:13pm

It seems that release date has been pushed back by one week as it's now May 21st.

Yes I just saw that on amazon.fr

There are may be 2 things that can explain that

1) In France, we have a lot of non-working days in May, so there might be some delay for the creation of the CD.
2) The pre-sales are may be so successfull, that they may not have edited enougth CD to answer the demand. (just my opinion)

**skeletorrobo** · April 29, 2012, 03:21am

It's good, but I would expect more for a 30th anniversary release.

What/ which tracks are missing? Does anyone know how many tracks there ought to be?

**EuroCoin** · April 29, 2012, 08:21am

Made my preorder from Amazon. 26 € for 2 copies shipped to Finland. I guess 13 € apiece isn't that bad. I would pay up to 50 € (+shipping) for a complete Filmation He-Man & She-Ra soundtrack.

**Tuukka** · April 29, 2012, 02:42pm

There's a little desire for me to order one copy too and I would already done it if the cover would be a little more appealing.

We'll see..

**skeletorrobo** · May 5, 2012, 08:31pm

I Googled these track names:

action (long version)
Athletic He-man
Hero Plannings (She-Ra version)
Orko's Theme (long)
Mystics
Important Travel
Evil Attacking
Carnival
Mysterious woods
Evil Plannings
Cosmos
Hordak's theme
Remember me
Snake mountain original version
Fighting He-man

Would these be thenames of the tracks missing from all Motu Soundtrack releases?

Those are the tracks SeltenSelten (a person in Youtube) had extracted and recreated, before he took all of it down, but there are a lot of more tracks / music on Filmation He-Man & She-Ra series, than those and tracks included in this upcoming CD.

If I had to guess, there probably is something like 100-200 musical tracks in Filmation He-Man and She-Ra series.
