Sorry if this has already been discussed, but does anyone know when we can expect the series 8 soundtrack and the Christmas special one. I have checked Silva Screens website and there is no sign of it.
Series 8 Soundtrack
1 of 4
I wouldn't expect it to be out until September at the earliest, if not later. When Silva Screen who produces the Soundtracks, has a date on their website, then I'm sure amazon will have the details, within a few days of this.
This is what Silva Screen has to offer so far, in the way of official DW Soundtrack CDs:

I'm actually wondering if Series 8 has enough original music to span two whole discs, or whether they may revert back to just one. A lot of what was used in Series 8 was actually reused from earlier series - usually to good effect, but at the cost of new material. There was some great stuff here and there though. A lot more subtle than Series 7.

what was reused? series 7 music would not fit with tone of 8. . 12 had a great theme.I heard some very orginal stuff, and the subtle background/creepier music was for the tone/tension of series 8
There is quite a bit of music from series 8 on YT,

Not so sure purely live events would affect the release date of the soundtrack CD. Only if a CD was planned for the symphonic versions.
And why isn't the UK tour coming to Manchester?

Off the top of my head, though there's probably more...
The closing scene of Death in Heaven, when The Doctor and Clara say goodbye before she walks off down the high street. A whole track lifted from The Time of the Doctor track 'Beginning of the End'.
A track from Asylum of the Daleks titled 'The Terrible Truth' was used near the ends of both Into the Dalek and Death in Heaven - twice in the latter!
The fallout between Clara and The Doctor at the end of Kill the Moon reused the track 'I Might Change My Mind', originally used near the end of The Bells of Saint John.
The track 'Somewhere to Hide' from The Day of the Doctor was reused partially in Flatline.
A track from Robot of Sherwood that's been dubbed 'May Our Story Never End' is an original piece, but takes inspiration from both Series 6's 'The Wedding of River Song' and The Special's 'Four Knocks' track.
When Clara reunites with The Doctor at the end of Deep Breath, they reuse music from 'The Leaf' which originally came from The Rings of Akhaten. The scene continues into the phone call with the Eleventh Doctor, which in turn (appropriately) reuses music from The Time of the Doctor, namely the track 'Song for Four'.
That's without new takes on Clara's theme which were heard, as well as another reworking of the Cybermen theme in the finale. And then on top of that Series 8 reused a lot of its own themes several times over (i.e. 'Fear is a Superpower' was used again in a hefty number of episodes) which is fine, though again reduces the amount of new material for a new soundtrack. Maybe they're opting for longer, fewer tracks rather than the shorter cues we've seen creep in?

Has that not been fairly common through all the series, though?

It's been done plenty before, I just don't think quite so prevalently. Series 6 for example, outside of its use of I Am The Doctor and Amy's theme, had largely original music. In fact the only piece I can think of that was reused that series was at the end of The Almost People, which reused a piece of music from Midnight.
This isn't a criticism at all - in fact Series 8 put the music it reused to better use than Series 7 did the first time around. There just seems a lot of examples of reused cues, and at more significant moments too. If you go back to, say, the second series, then episodes like Tooth and Claw, School Reunion, The Girl in the Fireplace, Doomsday...they all had a very distinct sound to them. I will admit I feel that has been somewhat lost more recently with Series 8. Although Last Christmas had some great music in it.
Some possibilities, though if they are reused, please correct me:

There's actually a fair bit there, I'm just hoping much of it will be memorable. I heard some synthesiser music used for Into the Dalek just yesterday, having not noticed it before. I'm not usually a fan of that type of music but it worked so well!
The one I'm really waiting for though is 'All of Time and Space'... my favourite music in a long time for the show, from one of my favourite scenes

The DWO WhoCast by Cameron McEwan on Thursday 23rd has the second half of an interview with Murray Gold on Series 8 & 'a new album.'
Perhaps we may have news. Hopefully.
Perhaps we may have news. Hopefully.
From Murray Gold, Radio Free Skaro Interview:
Copying these from GB as only just started listening myself.
- It's going to be THREE DISCS
Apparently my list wasn't long enough
- 12's theme is definitely called 'A Good Man?'
- The full, extended theme tune will be present and correct.
- Gold always provides a full theme - including Middle 8 - but it's up to the BBC on how they use it.
- 'Don't Stop Me Now' won't be included, as permission was not obtained.
- The album is supposed to be out before the Symphonic Spectacular, though it has taken a lot of work. But he is very proud of the end result. (Happy to have been wrong on this - get it on the shelves!)
- Gold enjoys searching YouTube for the Unreleased Music videos as they give him an idea of what people are responding to most.

Capaldi was the first Doctor Who actor to visit the recording sessions. The orchestra charged at him to get his autograph Around nine hours of new music was wrote for S8, apparently. Gold does sound very, very pleased with it
Missy's theme is described as a "creepy love song" - but the version with the actual words wont be on the album - just the broadcast version. One line was "tenderly the night will come in your sweet embrace."
He didn't know she was The Master when putting it together.
Hopefully out by the end of May, then.

Thanks for the updates, CD93. I look forward to the actual release!
P.S. I hope there are no iTunes only "bonus tracks" this time, though I fear there will be.

The Doctor Who channel have posted a cleaner 30 seconds from A Good Man @ the Spectacular.
Though I'm sure many of us here know that the full thing is already around

Blogtor Who are linking to this site for pre-orders, and they guarantee all pre-orders through their site will carry the extra booklet.
Thanks for the heads up. Ordered, but no indication whether or not I've got that extra booklet.
Edit: I suppose I must have because it says all pre-orders from that site will get the extra booklet!

Just ordered it so I can get that booklet. Does anybody know how to get confirmation of receiving the booklet?
