need some help finding music. wanting something that sounds "apoccoliptic" or something. you know the music you hear in movies like when the world is going to come to an end or when a big fight scene is breaking out. sort of sounds classical or something like that. its hard to explain and even harder to find. i have heard the kind of music i am looking for on videos in here be cant seem to find them. if you have any info it would be greatly appreciated

Carl Orff, Carmina Burana. Nough said.

'The Crystal Method' has many songs in movies/commercials. They are NOT classical, but have a Matrix style sound like for during fight scenes

PendragonZ

Hrm, let me go through some of my CD's at home, I know I have more apocolyptic sounding stuff, just can't think of the composers off hand.

Some other things you may want to look at are Holsts's Planets (Mars in particular), Also Sprach Zarathustra by Richard Strauss.

The beginning of "Night on Bald Mountain" by Mussorgsky
Ontological Shock from the Matrix Score
Barbarian Horde & the Might of Rome from the Gladiator Soundtrack
I agree with Pendragon about Carmina Burana.

Oh yeah and do a search for "lord of the rings trailer" and "lux aeterna". This song was adapted from requiem for a dream for the two towers trailer and it's pretty bad ***. I don't think you can buy it on a cd or anything though.

A great come down or ending piece is Adagio for strings,it was in the movie Platoon.It was a very powerful piece used in the movie and in the credits.

ACW

The Robocop soundtrack has some good stuff too
