 Hans Zimmer Provides A Brilliant Continuation For The Trilogy, Not A Reincarnation Of Badelt's Score To The First Film Jul 06, 2006
By Kaya R. Savas
The first Pirates Of The Caribbean score is one of the most popular adventure scores of all time and I can't believe it was not nominated. Klaus Badelt composed the score with very little time to do so, which is why Hans Zimmer helped guide him through the process. If you look on the back of the CD case of the first score, you will see that the score is "over"produced by Hans Zimmer. Zimmer did write some stuff for the first film, but Klaus helmed it and it turned out simply amazing. Now the master takes over for the apprentice and Hans Zimmer delivers an excellent but very different score for the sequel.
I think the major difference between the scores is the tone. Badelt's score was much lighter and had an epic feel to it while Zimmer's score is darker and much heavier. Since we are dealing with a trilogy I am assuming that the three films will be different in tone as well. Zimmer's score is a full-blown synth/orchestration that borrows themes from the first score as well as add a whole new feel. We are in the belly of the whale here, and the score definately suggests that. A lot of people will probably say that they enjoyed the first score versus this one, and I can understand that. Hans Zimmer doesn't really establish the main themes that we heard in the first one. Instead he only brings them in once in a while just to remind us that this is a continuation of the first movie and not a reincarnation. The highlight of the album is definately track 2 where we hear some signature Zimmer. He uses a structure that reminds me of his work on King Arthur. I absolutely loved this score and can't wait to hear his score to the trilogy's final installment next summer.

 Zimmer's "Dead Man's Chest" Swashes a Fine Buckle Jul 11, 2006
By G M. Stathis
First foremost, and above all Hans Zimmer's score for "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" is a perfect fit for the film, and the soundtrack album is a fine representation of most of the music for the Disney epic. Sure, a good deal of it is based on themes from the first "Pirates of the Caribbean," and surely all of the themes thus far will reappear next summer with the third and final chapter, but it is good stuff and almost everyone loves it. We still have some lingering questions about how much of the original themes were Zimmer's work and what should be credited to Klaus Badelt, but by now that is all rather academic. In this score Zimmer makes new use of the original themes, the true foundation of this musical voyage, and pops in new themes and motifs, especially his music for the Kraken and Davy Jones, and a few hornpipes for fun. Darker and more menacing in places with apt use of chorus and organ (or electronic organ) that work particularly well as motifs for the Kraken and Davy Jones (including a rather sentimental music-box theme that is quite touching and foreboding). Captain Jack Sparrow, Will Turner, and Elizabeth Swann are all remembered by musical signatures, both in the earlier themes and some new variations, but so are the Caribbean natives. It is all swashbuckling fun, and on that level could not be much better. One thing though; obviously the album was cut before the final version of the film and there is some music that did not make it to the album (much of the opening)...too bad, because we could have done without the Tiesto bonus. Good produciton values and packaging by Disney.

Bloody Good Music!!!! Jul 10, 2006
By TJ
I'm not going to ramble on and give a track by track review. I'm just going to say, if you enjoyed the score to the first movie composed by Klaus Badelt, then you will most defintley enjoy this one.
Hans Zimmer here takes over as the main composer, and he thoroughly and effectivley creates new and wonderful music for this second pirates movie, while still bringing to the table the themes that we heard in the first. One major difference you will notice is the music for this soundtrack is much darker and that is because the overall theme and story for this second movie is darker than the first.
All in all, Highly recommended!! 5 stars

Dead Man's Chest a worthy follow-up Jul 10, 2006
By P. Smith
I am somewhat of a connoisseur of soundtracks and Pirates of the Caribbean has been one of my favorites. The first score was unique and exciting and I didn't realize Klaus wasn't doing the new score until just now. I bought this CD before I saw the movie, but waited to see the film to get the full impression.
The second movie has a very different tone than the first. The score keeps much of the same sound of the first, however, which is a good way of tying the two together nicely, in my opinion. Hans Zimmer handles the soundtrack for this movie, and although I am personally a bit more of a fan of Klaus's, he does a nice job.
We are introduced to a revision of Jack's theme, which I find fits the change in character in the movie. The theme is a little darker, a little more unpredictable, but retains the essence we expect. The undertones from the orginal remain.
The Kraken is deep and dark, fitting for the monster portrayed on screen. Begining slow, but steadily increasing, it is fast, overpowering, wild. The organ music associated with Davy Jones is also featured in it, because of the connection of the two. I believe there are electric guitars in the piece as well, which is a nice touch. The theme itself holds the traditional sound for "monster".
I personally find the theme for Davy Jones one of my personal favorites. The track on the score begins with the music box theme featured in the movie. It is fitting for the sad past we are given for the ruthless ruler of the pirate afterlife, and gives him that certain melancholy air. Then the organ music comes bursting through into a sweeping theme that is very much "pirate-y" although organs may not be classic to the pirate sound. The choral work is impressive and the beat is strong, very much fitting for a dark pirate like Jones. Finally the track returns to the music box, a sad quiet closing.
The other tracks, labeled after their scenes in the movie, feature the Black Pearl theme with an electric guitar (I believe) twist for DAvy Jones's crewmembers. The same sweeping introduction for Jack remains. The theme music for the native tribe is, well, tribal, powerful and gutteral. We are also exposed to the waltz-like theme for the scene with the cages. Tia Dalma is given a slight twist to the theme from when Barbossa is killed in the first movie. The theme for Tortuga is the traditional pirate sound yet again.
Overall, the music is fitting for the dark tones of the film. It has transformed from the unique themes of the first film. However, you will notice familiar themes running like undercurrents. My one qualm is with the "bonus track" which is odd and, I personally believe, doesn't fit in with the soundtrack. But I would strongly recommnend it for pirates fans, although it has received mixed reviews.

A well-thought follow-up... Aug 07, 2006
By Tee
"bass girl"
As soon as I heard that Hans Zimmer was going to be composing this score, I knew it would be "monstrous" with vibrant strings set against the background of a giant brass section. Klaus Badelt did a wonderful job with the first Pirates soundtrack, and, of course the two soundtracks are going to sound similar because Badelt is part of Zimmer's Media Venture entourage. Zimmer merely took what Badelt had already installed into the Pirates montage and expanded upon it.
1. Jack Sparrow--This song starts out with stringed basses and cellos. It evolves into a more defined string section and adds the brass instruments to reintroduce Jack's theme from the first Pirates movie. The theme does not stay completely the same as the first, though, and creates a new theme for a renewed Jack Sparrow.
2. The Kraken--This theme is, by far, my favorite throughout this soundtrack! The track starts off with bass and cello, again, and builds its way to violins, a brass section, drums, and some distant voice sounds. The track slows down a bit and plays a part of Davy Jones' organ piece, tying the Kraken to Davy Jones. There's another turn in the track where the rhythm changes a bit and gives one the feel of the Kraken approaching. The heavy drums in the background also help to fuel this sense of urgency. There's also a little bit of electric guitar mixed in for a sound that's gnashing and hardcore. The entire piece builds back up to Davy Jones' theme and ends with the organ and a heartbeat.
3. Davy Jones--The track starts off with a musicbox sound of Davy Jones' main theme. The strings come back in, but only very subtly at first. They slowly start to build through the track and lead to the organ piece. The track continues to build upon the organ by adding more drums, cymbals, brass, and strings. Drums continue on, as a repitition of the heartbeat in The Kraken, and the track ends with the musicbox of the theme.
4. I've Got My Eye On You--This track has a similar pattern to Davy Jones, in the beginning, then, about 3/4 of the way through, turns into the Pirates theme established in the first Pirates movie. The theme from Jack Sparrow can be heard finishing out the track.
5. Dinner Is Served--Heavy drums, violins, brass, and a tribal voice start out this track with a "boom!". The track leads up to the point in which Will and the rest of the Black Pearl Crew are swinging in the ball cages. This theme is very waltzy and whimsical and ends the track.
6. Tia Dalma--Another Pirates 1 theme is repeated in this track. That theme evolves into a combination of itself and the already established Davy Jones theme. It evolves, yet again, into a theme that was familiarized with Barbossa in Pirates 1. There's a reason for that and it's a good foreshadowing mechanism on Zimmer's part. The theme then becomes its own with a tribal voice in the background along with the heartbeat from previous tracks.
7. Two Hornpipes (Tortuga)--This track is very light and full of whimsy. One can simply imagine the people around these musicians dancing jigs with large smiles on their faces.
8. A Family Affair--The violins make up the melody of this track, followed by a vibrant brass section. The Davy Jones theme is touched on here and moderated a bit to fit the scene of the movie. One can, once again, here the musicbox sound of Jones' theme playing softly against a background of strings.
9. Wheel Of Fortune--This track starts out as a variation of a Pirates 1 theme heard earlier in track 4. It evolves into a large combination of instruments and sounds. One can hear bits of already established Dead Man's Chest themes and recurring bits of Curse of the Black Pearl themes. The track turns back towards Davy Jones' theme and the musicbox theme is played briefly before turning into elements heard in the Kraken. It then turns right back into the theme from Pirates 1. Again, the theme is back to the Dead Man's Chest version and parts of the Jack Sparrow track. The track ends with the Dead Man's Chest version of the main Pirates theme with some bits of The Kraken mixed in.
10. You Look Good Jack--This track is a bit slower in rhythm than the others and starts off very dark and melancholy. Elements of Tia Dalma are reinstated within this track, as well as the main Dead Man's Chest theme. Again, one hears the electric guitar ripping out power chords as the melody of the main Pirates theme. The theme ends with a brief revisit to the Kraken.
11. Hello Beastie--This is another very melancholy and reflective theme. Themes from Davy Jones' and the Kraken can be heard, as well as a distant heartbeat every once in a while. The track bulids towards the end and ends with the same the Dead Man's Chest version of the main Pirates theme.
12. He's A Pirate (Tiesto Remix)--This is a really cool remix of some sounds and themes from Curse of the Black Pearl. If you don't like trance/techno, you won't like this song very well. If you do, enjoy!
