    Hey, I'm trying to find a good musical motif for my villain in my film and it seems the only thing fitting right now is the Imperial March. However, I don't want to use the Imperial March since it is so trademarked by Star Wars and everything it will call attention to itself. And also I don't want to use the Isengard theme from LOTR because that will also call attention to itself and it doens't really fit the character as much. Any good ideas?

    Get someone to write one for you? Or 'Menouthis' by E.S. Posthumous may work. I think that's the title.

    "Proto Merkabah" or "Albedo" from the Xenosaga OST might work.

    Try the Main Titles from End of Days by John Debney...great evil music, really bad movie.

    'Post Op' from Alien Resurrection might work with the right visuals.

    There's always the old 'Mars - Bringer of War' chestnut.

    OK, I spent about 5 minutes (well, more like an hour, but close enough) in GarageBand. I have uploaded the song here, at the bottom of the page.

    I would look at independent instumental peices or ones from lesser known films. A good instrumental CD that I use is Freedom by Micheal W. Smith.

    Hey, what should I use to open your files? I can't seem to be able to listen to them.

    Maybe you should use the techno version of the Imperial March. LOL, I'll look around and let you know if I find a good one.


    P.S. I love The Movie Spoof: The Movie, can't wait for the sequel.

    Hey, what should I use to open your files? I can't seem to be able to listen to them.

    I have two types of files... the ones on the left are AAC files, you have to have iTunes to listen (its a free download). The files on the right are the data files for GarageBand, for those techies that want to see what I did!
    hope this helps!

    I actually used Quicktime to play them. (Just click File, then open, and find the file) It worked fine. Really cool stuff katanna. ;)
