Star Wars: A New Hope Soundtrack - 04. The Death Star/The Stormtroopers*

- It begins with The Death Star, which on Williams' score is humorously entitled "Is It a Bird?" The cue underscores the sequence where the Millennium Falcon is helplessly drawn into the battle station, a destiny-defining moment that brings all of the characters together. The opening progression of dissonant brass chords evokes the same technological relentlessness of "Destruction of Alderaan." Strings then double the brass in a more tonal section and lead to a majestic trumpeting of the Rebel Fanfare. Its use here is noteworthy, since the obvious approach would have been to apply the Imperial theme and the Death Star motif. The Fanfare instead keeps focus on the resourcefulness of the heroes and helps avoid unnecessary grimness. The action continues with The Stormtroopers, a previously unavailable section which begins with three bass notes as the group emerges from hidden smuggling compartments, Ben's theme follows, played by English horn and bassoon, and then the Imperial theme returns with flutes and muted trumpets as a scanning crew approaches the docked freighter. A percussive thump marks the overpowering of two Stormtroopers, and the Imperial theme is played once again as duty officers in a nearby control room investigate. They too are overpowered, and the group, with Han and Luke disguised as the Stormtroopers, takes over the control room with an explosion of brass and a brief statement of Luke's theme.

2:05 classic from lego star wars
2:08 This was just in the Bad Batch
When they said: "They're a bunch of clone troopers, but... they upgraded their armor" and then this theme played was shocking for some reason
@@alejo2k awesome musical foreshadowing and a great nod to OT fans
It's officially the stormtrooper leitmotif now.
2:08 I love the old imperial theme so much...
I like the imperial march, but the old imperial theme is the best
They reused it in the Bad Batch series, especially in episode 14!
It’s the stormtrooper theme
0:55 That moment when the Falcon is being pulled into the Death Star, all you're thinking is 'How the hell are they gonna get outta this?'
Every time tbh
I’m also loving the music at that part.
"That's no Moon, it's a space station"
Much better than a Starkiller Base.
@@andresgamer6741 yes it is indeed
"It's too big to be a space station."
That’s no moon, that’s your mom
@@wernerreiner1343 i have a very bad feeling about this (and chewie said eararagahaar at the same time)
"You can't win, but there are alternatives to fighting."
Like GETTING THE HELL OUT OF HERE!!!
+DLAbaoaqu that's no moon...
+Emperor Palpatine lol Blue harvest
Suicide Squad AKA Whatsittoyaplays I sithed my pants. I need to take a darth doodie. My pants have went to the dark side. I got a whole list of these i can keep going on.
+tuxedo trooper Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen.
"Chewie, lock in the auxiliary power! Chewie, lock in the auxilary power!!"
"Aarrhhggnn!"
+Vincent Choi you cant win, but there are alternatives to fighting
+The Clashinator LIKE GETTING THE HELL OUTTA HERE!
auxiliary power *intensifies*
Why are we still moving towards it?
We're caught in a tractor beam it's pulling us in
When you're heading to school

Istiel Dawn agreed, the whole "when you're..." comments died a long time ago.
disagreed. It's just a quick laugh, it's not like this one comment is going to fill more than 5% of your screen
Istiel Dawn oof
0:54-1:20 I like to play this music in my head when I'm parking a car very slowly. I like the juxtaposition between the slow landing of the Millennium Falcon and the loud, fast-paced, heroic music.
**pictures garage door opening and car entering slowly at the pace of the music**
I've done this several times with my car going into my garage before. Glad I'm not the only one lol
"Bring a scanning crew aboard, I want every part of this car, er ship, searched."
We once had a concrete mixing turck part in to your yard, and it had a narrow path. I tought of this music too :D
I wanna be a stormtrooper standing and watching while millennium falcon enters, it's feel good.
Luke: You know, between his howling and you blasting everything in sight, it's a wonder the whole station doesn't know we're here!
Han: Well, bring ‘em on! I prefer a straight fight to all this sneaking around!
Loved hearing this in the new Bad Batch episode!
the part going from 0:39 to 0:59 has to be the best part of this theme
Kotal Total
I know right
Climatic
0:55 driving the maus in war thunder
0:55 the B-29 about to drop 12,000Lb of explosives on your head.
0:38 - 1:22 When you slowly walk toward the girl you like...
W
@@therookie9276 L
Think about this for a minute, the music between 0:39 to 0:50 picture a huge giant battleship unexpectedly entering Earth's atmosphere smothering the entire planet, does that sound scary or what?
0:38 - 1:28 Star Wars Battlefront.
Why are you everywhere?
+_ESS83_ Because the Force is strong with me. Also where else do you find me xD
+Emperor Palpatine Basically every Star Wars video I click on.
+_ESS83_ LOL XD
it is unavoidable
2:08 in Rogue One.
I was hoping they would use this motif in the film and they didn't let me down. I was so excited when I heard it.
I was ecstatic.
Dale Tuck when did it play? I don't recall it
***** When Vader was in the bacta tank.
Lego star wars
"Hangar Bay 327...We are opening the magnetic field........."
Ayhan Celebi it says "Hangar Bay 327" but yeah
lol whoops! Thanks for the heads up.
@@juri5624 I could have sworn it was "Clear Bay 327"
"To your stations, you follow me". BEEEP "Yes" "We've captured a freighter entering the remains of the Alderaan system. Its markings match those of a ship that blasted its way out of Mos Eisely." "They must be trying to return the stolen plans to the princess, she may yet be of some use to us". "Marker 1,5,7, and 9 discharge"
1:22 Imperial Officer: "Get me a scanning crew here on the double, I want every part of this ship checked!"

His name's khurgee
I thought Vader said that.
Someone pointed out, most composers would have the music be full of dread and fear when the Falcon is being pulled in, but instead we get this energetic take on the rebel theme. It's like Williams is saying "This is bad, but hold tight, our heroes aren't finished yet!"
This Theme is so awesomely sinister. I'm surprised Williams didn't use it for the second Death Star.
+NateElias9328 Everybody went crazy with Imperial March and that was it :/.
Too true. 😐
0:56 that was (and still is) my favorite soundtrack from a new hope
Lowkey wanna find someone or make it myself an extended version of this part of the song
1:09 The horns!
"That Walker is defenseless take it down!
0:54 to 1:21 shit gets real!!!
2:44
The soundtrack to Jedi Outcast/Academy on Jedi Master difficulty.
John Williams pure genius. His use of slow progression ever goose stepping march. It makes the approach to the Death Star sound as if you are entering the very heart of the Empire. Many want Williams to be listed as the twentieth centuries greatest American composer.
There is really a Gustav Holst vibe to this theme especially the beginning
Mars - the bringer of war
Appropriate that Williams jokingly named it "Is It a Bird?", given that he'd score a film one year later about a guy who consistently gets mistaken for both a bird and a plane.

"That's no moon... that's yo mama!"
+Echelon Anthony Yeah? Well yo mama's so stupid she spent an entire day saying "Am not!" to R2!
+Noble VI well yo mamas so stupid she thought LIGHTsaber was lower on calories......
*__*
+Echelon Anthony Yo mamas so stupid she went to thailand to get a thai fighter
Yo mamás si fat she has her own gravity well
"Look at the size of that thing!"
2:44 the song you hear when you die in the Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy campaign!
+Froy 2001 1:28 Dash Rendar has died.
MISSION FAILED
YOU HAVE DIED
I'd like to see the Death Star motif return in Rouge One. Granted, it's more low key than the imperial march but it'd be great for nostalgia.
^This.
It did, as well as the Stormtrooper theme.
ROGUE JESUS
@@Slechy_Lesh ah yes, my favorite musical of all time, Moulin Rogue ;)
That's no moon. It's a space station. Watching the Falcon being pulled towards the Death Star was with this soundtrack WAS/IS PURELY CINEMATIC MAGIC!!!!
I always love to imagine in my head how cool those shots of my ship slowly getting into the hangar looked
Clear Bay 327...We have opened the magnetic doors!
**field**
Officer: "Cortosis removal unit, stand by to board transport ship"
Stormtrooper: "Affirmative sir, cortosis removal team standing by"
0:55
+TheD3rp the best part - la mejor parte
This soundtrack is absolutely phenomenal.
Man and people say music doesn't give you goosebumbs
BIG YES!!!! This is brilliant!!!!
whenever I hear this song on battlefront I go into beast Mode and start dropping rebel scum
The Troll So true
Supposedly, the Imperial motif featured here (and throughout New Hope) is back in Rogue One, thanks to Michael Giacchino.
logicalfallacy234
You can also hear it in Solo during the train heist.
Cant wait for the swb Death Star DLC
me too man
Fuck oath
It's gonna be awesome bro
its out
yeah can't wait to waste $50 for something that should already be in the game (I'm late I know)
Love the sly nod to Bernard Hermann’s three-note motif from Psycho at 1:40.
Best comment, thanks
1:01 "Clear bay 327, we're opening the magnetic field."
2:07 FRICK I LOVE THE STORMTROOPER MOTIF!!!
0:55 - 1:28 should be the transition theme from ground to capital ship phase on battlefront 2 if they ever release capital supremacy for the OT
Absolutely STAR WARS.... 10000000000000 %. Wooo.
At 0:30 things start HEATING UP RAPIDLY!! I just love original star wars!!!
very underrated song imo, especially the first half
I'm in love with SW😍😍

+jakeola10 well a lot of people hate it like my friends🙁😕
+David Lange Only assholes hate Star Wars.
+Steve Rogers haha!!! Yeah they do but I don't care if they do or not I only care about the ones who do like it
Hunter Level 40 have they seen it ? Cause the only people that i know and say they hate star wars are the ones that have never seen it 😂
1:21 ...Stravinsky? Is that you?
Gives the perfect intimidation and feel of helplessness
Nice, insightful commentary in the description!
When the horns kick in...wow!
If you strike me down, I'll become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.
"Y-Wings inbound"
Who's here after the newest bad batch episode?
Me!!! I can't remember this song ever being played after the original movie. I can't believe it finally came back!
@@sivad1025 Aside from A New Hope and The Bad Batch the original Imperial theme also appeared in Attack of the Clones, Revenge of the Sith, Solo and Rogue One.

Can we just appreciate that jediking12 took the time to write a small essay about all of the tracks in the description?
0:39 - 1:30 off new Star Wars Battlefront
+James's public transport videos yeah i love that part
I hope you realize that this isn’t ripped off or anything they took it, besides ANH came out in ‘77 and SWB came out in ‘15. Thank you thank you very much
And before that too
I've got a baaaaaaaaaad feeling about this!
iconic
The minute Han said "Yeah I think your right" I was like "oh no this isn't going to end well"
Best song of star wars!
When you play battlefront and you want to win and this plays you get relaxed 😎
Ive got a good feeling about this.
We captured a freighter entering the remain of the Alderaan system. It marking match the description of a ship the blasted its way off Mos Eisley
DarthVastVader They must be trying to return the stolen plans to the princess. She may yet be of some use to us.
