Wait a minute, This guy stole it from the modern remake of
War of the Worlds. That is also where Mass effect got it in my opinion. Its effective but no more than a score of trombone and tuba blasts.

The Inception trailer is still one of the best trailers I've ever seen. I actually cringe when I hear the Bramm in other trailers. Same with Sunshine's adagio.

In fairness, the music from the main (non-teaser) trailer is "Mind Heist" composed by Zack Hemsey, not Mr. Zimmer. I'd say that Hemsey's score is the most popular one, with its singular BWAHM beats, rather than Zimmer's BAHM-BAHM (one-two) punch. Most trailers from other movies copy the single, drawn out pulses that Hemsey used.

Actually, "The New Yorker" (Online 3/29/13) credits Mike Zarin with composing the original "booms" in the teaser trailer released in 2009…

One amusing fact is that the trailer for Sunshine actually used Lux Aeterna for its soundtrack.

Years before Inception came out, though, the band This Morn' Omina had released the song "One-Eyed Man" which opens with pretty much exactly the same sound.

Go to youtube and enter "this morn omina one eyed man" in the search and check it out.

Oh we're pretending Inception/Nolan was the first to use this sound? Ok then….

I felt like after Inception, there was something of resurgence of using that type of musical strike for a trailer. I made a little compilation too: http://youtu.be/830I9w7I7wM
But, yeah, I agree with your tone, JWILL123.

You're all forgetting about mass effect

This is a PERFECT example of how video games also use the BRAAM phenomenom:

Well, too bad that you mention Zack Hemsey in the article. Yet you still interview Hans Zimmer instead of Zack Hemsey. The Braam's are copied from Zack Hemsey, because he used them in the trailer. Aside from that he used a single Braam instead of the one that Hans Zimmer used during the movie. So imo you gave the credit to the wrong person.

Haha it was even done in a Capella…search "inception trailer a Capella" on YouTube. The BRAAMS are spot on and it's just so awesome

It's not like these Bramms sound the same though. They arent all blaring horns. We're hitting a very dubsteppy age too, which has completely integrated itself into the trailers. Inception had it in its score, but the origin of these trailers sounds are inspired by more than a single place. Some stingers have the same sound and they've been used for ages.

Dubstep, electronic music and horn-ish synth blasts have been done for a while before it was used so prominently in a single film.

He wasn't so unhappy about collecting money off of every tuba player in the world.

Still think it should be clarified that the Inception trailer didn't CREATE this style, but it did it the best and pushed it into cliche territory for everyone else. I remember the first trailer for Transformers 2 had that WOMMMP/dubstep-cutting style that gave me chills when I first saw it. Now it's a joke.

Captain Phillips stole the entire Inception soundtrack. That movie was a 9/10 until I literally heard "Time" by Hans Zimmer for the last 5 minutes of the movie. Infuriating. Hope Henry Jackman is out of work for the rest of his life.

Hi! .I\’m musician. I loved Hans Zimmer until I realized that TIME (Inception) is a blatant copy of ADAGIO IN D MINOR John Murphy (Sunshine). What a shame …

What a hypocrite and a liar. He didn't create that sound. Mike Zarin did along with the help of several others of which he gives credit. There's lying and then there's Zimmer's lying that's on a whole different planet!

People Zarin and Hempsey were 'inspired' from Zimmer – Zimmer composed "528491" which has the now 'popular' bramm' sound in it.

Guysâ¦ we're all forgetting "Good artists copy, great artists steal." Pablo Picasso
And this quote was even stolen and re-worked a few times lol. I say it's all good as long as it servers to convey the story.
