43 tracks, TRT: 70mins, 91kbps-256kbps (various)
This has been an ongoing project of mine for about two months now (it’s been a bit on and off), and while lurking, err…browsing this wonderful site for some fabulous goodies I came across this (Thread 73939) thread in which I learnt apparently not a lot of people have much music from this great series apart from the tracks ripped from the Track Team’s site. Well, it’s not much, but since I’m a long looong time lurker here, and wanted my first post to be something of value, I thought I’d share what little music I’ve managed to scrounge together from this frankly amazing series.
These are all from different sources, the two main ones being Grooveshark and the awesome aforementioned tracks ripped from the official website (Thread 74175).
The one thing that always prevented me from uploading this sooner is I’m frankly ashamed of the varying bitrate; most of the tracks sit nicely around 196kbps but fluctuates from anywhere between 91-256kbps (thankfully, most of the Book 3 stuff is of higher bitrate). It goes without saying that it’s not the most consistent of listening experiences, and while this isn’t the kind of score that demands FLAC or even 320kbps, to be honest 91kbps is pretty woeful no matter how you look at it.
Most of the tracks have no SFX, except for some faint footsteps in "The Lion Turtle" and some (unfortunately) MAJOR SFX in the Escape to the Spirit World tracks "Roku", "Kyoshi", "Kuruk" and "Yangchen". UPDATE: The Escape From The Spirit World tracks have been removed from this version of the soundtrack. Apart from the barely noticeable SFX in "The Lion Turtle", consider this soundtrack SFX-free!
But, this is what I have, and hopefully it’s better than nothing. Hope you enjoy, and a big thank you to everyone involved in keeping this wonderful site alive!

The Legend of Korra: Book 1
32 tracks, TRT: 74mins, 128kbps-256kbps (various)
The commercial release of The Legend Of Korra Book 1 Soundtrack marks an important milestone for hopefully future releases of music from both The Legend Of Korra and The Last Airbender. But if that’s true, why am I not just uploading the release here? Firstly, because someone beat me to it (those looking just for the commercial release as is, look here (Thread 137203)). And secondly, after pouring, analysing and dissecting the release, I’ve found that the new album doesn’t include everything that’s been released so far. Most of it, for sure, but not all of it. Not only that, but the music is not presented in chronological order, which I know is a pet peeve for quite a few people. Hence, there was work to be done.
And how much work it was! I’ve re-watched the series again, allowing me to rearranged the album’s contents in the order that they are heard in the show. But perhaps more interesting is the inclusion of music previously released from the show (through the 2011 SDCC promo and Operation Kino broadcast). While I was certain that not everything would be included on the album, some of the stuff left out did surprise me, especially the exclusion of "The Rally" cue, the three-minute motif for the villain as we first see him demonstrate his power. Thankfully, that mistake has been rectified by putting that cue into the score.
Unfortunately, this little correction of mine is not perfect. Some of the new tracks I’ve put in do not match the CD quality of the rest of the album. This is the primary reason I didn’t include the tracks from the Flash game even though they also play in the series (also because some of those tracks contain rather intrusive SFX) . I’ve also excluded some other tracks including the original version of "The Rally" (redundant), "Love Across Yue Bay" (too short) and the trailer music for Book 1 and 2 (also redundant).
If there is enough interest, I may be able to put absolutely everything into the release to form a super-expanded score, but I feel that this version will suffice most fans of this score. I guess you could call it a "Deluxe Edition" if you want (not to be confused with SonicAdventure’s amazing remasterings of the same name). Overall, it is an additional 10 minutes of music to a fantastic score. Hope you enjoy!

The Legend of Korra: Books 2, 3 & 4
28 tracks, TRT: 57mins, 80kbps-320kbps (various)
Here’s hoping that the commercial success of the first Legend Of Korra album will lead to a second for Book 2 (and 3)(and 4!). In the meanwhile, here’s the small collection of tracks from the second (UPDATE: and third!)(UPDATE: and fourth!) season that have been released so far. Five of these tracks were ripped straight from the official "Dark Into Light" Flash game, <del>two</del> <del>three</del> <del>five</del> <del>eight</del> ten are from Jeremy Zuckerman’s personal SoundCloud, one – "Nuktuk, The Hero Of The South! (Instrumental Version)" is of indeterminate origin (probably KorraNation), and two are suites played live at Playfest, 2014. A big thank you once again to tumblr user benditlikekorra (http://benditlikekorra.tumblr.com/) for constantly being on the prowl for new tracks and making them available almost as soon as they are discovered.
UPDATE: After much deliberating, I’ve included snippets of four tracks that I was able to cleanly edit together from a new interview with Jeremy Zuckerman on KorraScope, which you can find here (https://soundcloud.com/korrascope/j-zuckerman-interview). The fade-ins and outs were edited in by me, since they didn’t have any. Nor did the tracks have any official names, so I made some up according to where they play in the show and how Zuckerman described them in his interview. Normally I wouldn’t include tracks with this low a bitrate, but some of these tracks are very beautiful, particularly "Spirit World" and "Familiar Souls". All of these new additions (the interview tracks, the Soundcloud tracks, and the trailer theme) give this release a new total of 49 minutes, which is a pretty decent amount of score. New soundtrack covers are also included. Here’s hoping that a new Korra soundtrack release is in the works!
UPDATE (18/04/2015): Much like the previous update, I’ve ripped and cleaned up five (very) short tracks from the latest of KorraScope’s "Republic City Dispatch" podcasts, which featured the Track Team duo themselves, Jeremy Zuckerman and Benjamin Wynn, talking at length and featuring some of the music from Book 4. Among the five snippets are some of the finale music that many people have been very eager to get their hands on, myself included. With "The Legend Of Korra" now over, the "Republic City Dispatch" podcast seemingly discontinued (along with many of the Korra-centric podcasts), and Zuckerman having not uploaded any new tracks since the finale, this looks set to be the final update for this thread (at least for a long while). Thank you all for your support, kind words, and help over the years (wow, has it really been that long?).
UPDATE (20/12/2016): We’re still live, people! Zuckerman has slowly been uploading new tracks onto his SoundCloud. Apologies for taking so long to get the upload updated, but here are the two amazing new tracks from the Book 4 finale, "Destroy The Colossus" and "Inside / Mako’s Sacrifice". I’ve ripped them from Zuckerman’s SoundCloud in 320kbps. I’m not sure if this will actually translate into higher quality than the 128kbps version, since SoundCloud only encodes in a certain quality, but I’ve ripped in that high a format anyways. I also re-ripped all of the other SoundCloud tracks in 320kbps. Here’s to more potential Korra SoundCloud releases in the future!

Escape From The Spirit World
5 tracks, TRT: 13mins, 128kbps
I’ve always thought that the four tracks from the online flash game Escape From The Spirit World, which do not appear in the series proper, were not meant to be included on the original series soundtrack. This, combined with their disjointed feeling in comparison with the rest of the album and their suspension-shattering SFX have lead me to do what I frankly should’ve done a while ago, and group the four tracks together in their own separate release. UPDATE: Ripped and added the fifth track that plays during the opening, where Aang is talking to Yue, which I (rather appropriately) titled "Yue".
Track List:
1. Yue (128kbps)
2. Roku (128kbps)
3. Kyoshi (128kbps)
4. Kuruk (128kbps)
5. Yangchen (128kbps)

One final note: if you are able to find any of these tracks in higher quality, feel free to post here or PM me, and I’ll gladly re-upload with the higher quality tracks. Also, any cover art is welcomed; I’ve made all of the above covers in 30 seconds with Paint (yeah, Paint, you heard me right). Or, if you’re up to it, feel free to make your own!
EDIT: Apologies for posting this in the wrong sub-forum, tried to delete that post I don’t think I have enough privileges to delete it, or something. ๐
EDIT 2: Big BIG thank you to impudent urinal for sending me a stack of high-quality tracks, including two all-new tracks, one of which is an unused alternate of the opening credits, which I’ve never heard before! I’ve re-upped the soundtrack with the added tracks, plus replaced some old ones, including "The Two Lovers" which has had a huge quality jump from 91kbps to 256kbps! I’ve also included some alternate covers and updated the track list to show EXACTLY what changed. Again, thank you so very very much!
EDIT 3: Updated link. Also changed the title to be more in line with current website guidelines. Also, totally not bumping in order to get more views/downloads. TOTALLY NOT.
EDIT 4: Nothing major, hence I didn’t bump. But I’ve finally got around to adding "Firebending Training" to the Legend of Korra soundtrack. Feel free to rename it "Firebending Practice", "Final Firebending Exam", or any other name, as this track goes by quite a few. Also included is RedYoshiKing’s amazing coverart, as well as the older, crappier artwork I did (the one on this post), and even a – ahem – special coverart as a bonus. Enjoy!
EDIT 5: Legend of Korra main soundtrack finally updated with "Tenzin’s Decision", "Love Across Yue Bay" and the magnificent finale cue, dubbed "Restoration & Finale" to avoid spoilerage. Yeah, I know, I’m late as…a really late thing, so allow me to humbly apologise for taking this long. Thanks for your continual support guys!
EDIT 6: Compliments to impudent urinal once again, this time for uploading all the albums to Mediafire, after some complaints were made about having to register to use 4shared.
EDIT 7: Compliments to Tjaiko for sharing a 256kbps version of "Season 3 Trailer". Thanks for the upgrade, man!
EDIT 8: W-what? The first post looks a lot nicer all of a sudden? It’s, ah, t-totally looked like that!
EDIT 9: Tracks from the second season of Legend Of Korra added!
EDIT 10: Legend Of Korra: Book 2 release expanded!
EDIT 11 (30/08/2014): Legend Of Korra: Book 2 release expanded! Again! Also, I’m time stamping these now like I should’ve been doing since the first one.
EDIT 12 (03/12/2014): "Final Battle (Aang vs. Ozai)" added to "Avatar: The Last Airbender" upload.
EDIT 13 (23/12/2014): The final big update! Everything that has been released for both series thus far has been added. Merry Christmas!
EDIT 14 (18/04/2015): Tracks from the latest "Republic City Dispatch" added. Most likely the last update for a long time. Thanks for your continued support, guys, and hope you enjoy!
EDIT 15 (10/10/2015): Added awesome new covers by the talented Mr Gold, as well as the amazing cue "To Heal" from Zuckerman’s SoundCloud.
Screw you Nickelodeon or whoever it concerns for not releasing the soundtrack.

Interview if anyone is interested :- SoundtrackNet : Interview – The Music of Avatar: The Last Airbender (http://www.soundtrack.net/features/article/?id=252)
And very cool interview; I found it interesting how the two made very little distinction between sound design and music; they both compliment one another. Perhaps the high quality of the soundtrack is also responsible for the varying and interesting soundscape of the sound effects, especially the bending effects? Whichever way it was, they’re both amazing.
Finally some musi of it!
Oh and by the way, thanks for this. A few of these I don’t have, especially Aang faces Ozai.
Avatar is not an anime.
Oh and by the way, thanks for this. A few of these I don’t have, especially Aang faces Ozai.
No problem! To be fair, the term ‘anime’ itself is being applied a bit too liberally as of late. I always thought of it more as a specific art style instead of "it’s from Japan, therefore it’s anime". I wouldn’t say Avatar is 100% anime, but it does have anime qualities, much like Teen Titans. But I’m in no way an anime buff and I can see where you’re coming from, so I’ll try not to make the same mistake again.
Just thought I’d add my $0.02 worth!
(http://s1183.photobucket.com/albums/x464/Matt_Lambertson/?action=view¤t=folder.jpg)
Check it out!
Oh, and I made another crappy cover for your convenience. Gaze upon it and laugh at my woeful Paint skills. (Credit to the deviantartist spacecoyote (http://spacecoyote.deviantart.com/gallery/134224#/d277knh) for the original image. Go and thank him for his amazing work…NAO).
Enjoy!
EDIT: If someone were to change the title of the this thread to the new title of my first post…well, Valentine’s Day has come and gone so I probably won’t do anything. But I would be gracious; so very, very gracious! ๐
Fun fact, this thread actually started life in the Anime Music Downloads section, until I was told rather bluntly that Avatar "ain’t an anime". So there’s that.
Thanks for the detective work…I was actually just linked to these files via an acquaintance yesterday, who said he found what I thought was super-mega-ultra rare music via Google search. I’m frankly embarrassed; I swear I’ve searched Google for two hours or more trying to get a hold of this release, gave up, only to have someone else drop them on my lap. On the one hand, I am over-joyed to have received this music, on the other hand I feel emancipated. Am I just Googling wrong? ๐
I’ll upload the Korra tracks later tonight along with the two I’ve already uploaded. I think I’ll do both of them separately, just for neatness. Would be cool if this thread could get a title change though…doesn’t look very professional. And if I’m putting up the Korra tracks as well as the original ATLA stuff the old thread title is kinda misleading.
Turn off safesearch and be clear what you want using as few words as possible. I just googled "korra nation music tracks" and boom 2nd link was a winner
Would be cool if this thread could get a title change though…doesn’t look very professional. And if I’m putting up the Korra tracks as well as the original ATLA stuff the old thread title is kinda misleading.
Just ask an admin like Jessie or Marceline. They should have the means to edit thread titles.
– The ‘Escape From The Spirit World’ tracks have been removed from the main series soundtrack and given their own seperate folder (all four of ’em ๐ ) About high time I did so, I felt the inclusion of the tracks disrupted the flow of the score severely, with their tinny ‘video-gamey’ sound and distracting SFX. Plus, you know, the music is from the flash-game and NOT the series, so there’s that.
– Gave the old album artwork to the ‘Escape From The Spirit World’ soundtrack, and am using the new one for the original release. I also made this crappy alternate artwork for ‘Escape From The Spirit World’.
– I also removed the ripped tracks "The Dragon Dance" and "Energybending", simply because I felt they had too much SFX to be considered part of the album. I kept "The Lion Turtle" though, since the SFX is quite minimal in that track.
Perhaps the most exciting update, this (http://www.youtube.com/user/otakulovesjelly) guy was able to provide the tracks from Operation Kino’s #52 podcast in better quality. Here’s the track changes:
– "Leisurely Stroll" was missing a 20 second intro. Hence the track has been extended to about a minute long.
– "The Unknown" no longer has that abrupt hissing at the start of the track.
– The PROPER extended version of "The Rally", which combines the 20 second intro from the original release that didn’t feature on the podcast.
I would also like to add that the names for the Operation Kino tracks are fanmade, and came out before they had appeared in the series. However, more episodes have been released now, and every single track on the ‘Legend of Korra’ soundtrack has now been featured on the show. Unsurprisingly, the fanmade names do not match up with the situation the music plays, so let me put out a challenge to anyone reading this to come up with some new track names! For those who are unsure where the new tracks play in the series, a quick briefing:
"Leisurely Stroll": Plays straight after "Dixieland Interlude", with Mako on his date with Asami.
"Dixieland Interlude": Plays when Mako arrives at the restaurant and is given a Makover (see what I did there?!) in preparation for his date with Asami.
"The Unknown": Plays when Mako and Korra rest in the park after looking for Bolin (who’s been kidnapped) all night, Mako recounts the death of his parents and his involvement with a gang.
Oh, and a reminder that ANY album art is welcomed, particularly for the ‘Legend of Korra’ soundtrack. Notice the little Aang in the corner of the current album art? Yeah, doesn’t look quite as good now, doesn’t it?
Thanks for the views and downloads, guys!

Also, here’s a link to a new track! Entitled "Final Firebending Exam", it’s in HD! I downloaded it as soon as I discovered it using a video to mp3 conversion site. Sounds AMAZING! ๐
The Legend Of Korra Soundtrack:Firebending Training! HD! – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIETTOdNqOw)
The site is a bit slow at the moment, but it does eventually work.
A re-upload elsewhere is not needed.
I tried all 3 links and they all work.
btw i love
leaves from the vine
the two lovers
Iroh’s Speech
last agnikai – hope you can get the full version
peace
and the various version of the main theme
Thankfully, the first track, "Air Temple Island", is actually the track fandubbed "Tenzin’s Decision", which a lot of people have been after. It’s also a bit longer than the others at 1.20 min so I decided to put in the main soundtrack. The rest have been uploaded separately in their own folder. The new release also allows me to continue my proud tradition of creating awful cover art for this amazing series of soundtracks. Behold!
Another small track I found, but not from the Flash game, fandubbed "Looking Across Yue Bay" or "Love Across Yue Bay", depending on who your OTP is, has also been added to the main soundtrack. Yeah, it’s a rip from the show, and I’m usually against putting those rips amongst "official" tracks, and it’s a bit on the short side, but it’s SFX free and sounds quite lovely.
Phew, can you believe we’re almost at half an hour of clean, crisp and crazily amazing music from this awesome series? Here’s to more amazing tracks being released in the future. Stay tuned!
Here’s the video, and there are download links!
WARNING: TITLE OF VIDEO IS A SPOILER! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASm-IROX_R8)
Original Book 1 Highlights Video: Contains MASSIVE amounts of spoilerage (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dZb7lPNBUs)
When I went on, the track was unfortunately unavailable as it had reached it’s download limit on soundcloud.com. Not to worry, brothers and sisters! I, of course, will be uploading the track into the main series soundtrack, but I’ve also made a separate link available. UPDATE: Minus, the file-sharing website I’ve previously used, no longer allows multimedia uploads. They haven’t deleted previously updated files (yet), so I’ll kept this track up for now. But, if it gets deleted, I won’t be reuploading it. It’s included in the main Legend of Korra album in higher quality anyway, so I highly recommend grabbing that.

I’m so stoked, you guys. The finale music, it’s here! I totally geeked out when I found out, hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
Also, thanks to the person who gave me rep, whose name I missed. Not you, impudent urinal, although you’re awesome too.
I agree it is a shame that there is no official releases of these soundtracks.
Let’s start with the most exciting news, a brand spankin’ new track from the original series has surfaced! "White Lotus Raid", a minute-long cue that plays in the finale when the various members of the White Lotus retake Ba Sing Se, has been added to the main series album. Many, many thanks goes to tumblr user benditlikekorra (http://benditlikekorra.tumblr.com/) for posting the track on the avatarsoundtracks (http://avatarsoundtracks.tumblr.com/post/30950795413) tumblr page. You rock, sir.
Secondly, I’ve ripped the track that plays in the introduction to the Flash game "Escape From The Spirit World", where Aang speaks to Princess Yue. I’ve titled the cue "Yue" and put it with the other four tracks in the Escape From The Spirit World album. Like the other tracks, expect SFX.
Thirdly, a couple of updates for the Legend of Korra album. First, the tracks "Tenzin’s Decision" and "Restoration & Finale" have been updated to higher bitrates. "Tenzin’s Decision" no longer sounds really quiet in the second half of the track, and the finale cue has a big quality leap from 48kbps to 128kbps. The missing "oomph" when the glorious Avatar theme begins playing is back, people! Also, new crappy artwork by me!
Exciting things are happening in the musical world of the Avatar. Stay tuned for more updates, and thanks for kind words and support. Until next time, chaps!
Thank you so much for all the hard work getting these up, the music in the Avatar series is always so beautiful. ♥
I’ve just checked it out, and yes, you do unfortunately have to register to download the files. As we’re all too aware of, it’s getting more and more difficult to upload/download content these days. I previously hosted these links on Minus before the change only allowed the upload of image files. 4shared is one of the only semi-reliable hosting services left available. It’s a shame it requires registration before allowing you to download but I’m left with very little choice. If you have any suggestions for other reliable file-sharing services that eliminates this problem, I’d be happy to set up shop there.
And to everyone who has posted and checked out the music from these incredible series, thank you for your kinds words. I very much hope you’re enjoying it, and as always, stay tuned for more updates in the future!
Rapidshare is going through a variety of shake-ups at the moment that make it one of the least ideal services to use. As quoted directly from Rapidshare:
On November 27, RapidShare will start putting a tight cap on outbound downloads for its free users. Paid members will still have 30 gigabytes in outbound downloads per day, but everybody else will be capped at one gigabyte. This will apply to public downloads, whereas direct Dropbox-style sharing between users won’t be affected.
And you can read more about it here (http://techcrash.net/rapidshare-downloads-limitations-apply-to-expel-the-pirates/).
Mediafire, who already has a limitation of 200MB per file, is now limiting the amount of downloads of split files. Inactive accounts also have their files deleted after a pretty short period of time, and like most of the major sites have a variety of bots that search out and delete copyrighted content.
Of course, it’s all to try to distance themselves from the Megaupload debacle, and they are suffering heavily in terms of traffic because of it. In short, neither service can offer a satisfactory storage experience. Hence, for now, 4shared is one of my best options. Sorry for the inconvenience, but in terms of online file storage, things look to be getting worse before they get better.

Thank you so much for your contribution! This thread is very much a group effort, and my oh my how far we’ve come since its inception! It means a lot, especially since things have been a bit slow around here due to very little new information about the new season of Korra, which has honestly surprised me. Hopefully things will pick up once the show is back on the air, and we may even receive another album promo like we did last season (although I’m not holding my breath).
I’ve already updated the first post with a new link to the updated album. Thanks again for your contribution; every little one adds up!

The Legend of Korra – Teaser Trailer (fixed version) (http://www.mediafire.com/?8famokd1f3q71vp)
I was aware of the whole trailer controversy, and my decision to include the sped-up version was deliberate. The proper version of the Korra trailer music that you’ve provided is basically the Season 3 Trailer music, except it’s missing the 30 seconds of music between .55 and 1.25 from the full version. I don’t like including material that I feel is redundant.
The sped-up version, on the other hand, sounded wicked-cool in my opinion, so I included it despite being lower quality and "messed-up". Of course, I could be wrong on this, so if I get enough calls to put this in over the sped-up version, I’ll definitely consider it.
That said, thank you very much for you contribution, always glad to see interest in these amazing series of scores. Hope to see more from you in the future!
In the mean time, here are two lovely alternate covers done by teews666 (http://teews666.deviantart.com/) over at Deviant Art, who has kindly allowed these specific pieces to be used for CD art ๐
http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2012/281/8/4/avatar_the_last_airbender_ost_alt_cover_by_teews66 6-d5h80on.jpg
True, it’s basically an edited version of the TLA Season 3 Trailer music. I wouldn’t have posted my mp3 for that very reason if not for the fact that it’s higher-quality than the mp3 for the Season 3 trailer.
Hopefully there’ll actually be an official release so we can get it all in FLAC and be done with it. ๐
First off, new covers, courtesy of the wonderful artists of deviantART! Thanks to Full Circle (http://forums.ffshrine.org/f92/avatar-last-airbender-expanded-score-legend-korra-97989/3.html#post2295583) for finding some very regal covers for the first series by user teews666 (http://teews666.deviantart.com/), who I personally thanked for making them. Don’t be put off by the number of the beast, check out this guy/gals gallery out for some more unique album art! NerdyGeekyDweeb (http://browse.deviantart.com/art/Avatar-TLA-Musical-Score-Cover-341068799) also offers up some art of his/her own. Thanks for the amazing art!
I also made some more album art, although I decided to do something a little different. Three covers for the three books! I’ve included two sets (I didn’t make the second set, unfortunately I can’t credit whoever made them because I’m unsure who did). If anyone is able to find who is responsible for the second set, let me know so I can properly credit them for these great covers!
I’ve updated all of the links in my first post. Corrected a small error in the tracklist after rewatching some episodes; "The Avatar State" doesn’t play until Book 2, and "Ocean Spirit" comes before "Princess Yue". I shortened "Princess Yue Becomes The Moon Spirit" to just "Princess Yue". Sounds nicer, methinks.
That’s not all! I’ve also included a short, 25-words-or-so summary in each track, saying specifically where the track plays and other titbits. For those of you wondering where these tracks played specifically in the series, look no further!
This update ain’t done yet! Also, here’s a not-quite-so new track (http://www.mediafire.com/listen/ihwqhw3qh3y1pys/Peace_(Alternate).mp3). It’s the version of "Peace" that plays in the series proper. Basically, the only difference between the two versions is that this one has an extra 10-second bit from 1.28 onwards when Ty Lee reveals herself as a Kyoshi Warrior and the string work gets a little frenetic. Interesting, but not necessary, hence why I haven’t included it in the main series soundtrack (and hence why I don’t call it a "new" track). Worth a listen, though!
For most of us, the wait for the new season of Korra has been excruciating. That said, there’s been some interesting…developments over the past couple of weeks. First was the announcement and upload of two brand spanking new tracks for the Legend of Korra, which sent the fanbase into a frenzy (myself included)…until it was quickly debunked by Jeremy Zuckerman and Benjamin Wynn on their Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/thetrackteam), who said they did not compose the tracks. Check out the two tracks here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJm4VykfupY&feature=youtu.be) and here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmLAMsoBQtk). While this was happening, Jeremy and Ben had been cryptically alluding to "something big" on their Facebook page, which many fans have speculated to finally be the announcement of an official soundtrack release. It is as yet unconfirmed, although both Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Legend-Korra-Original-Music-Book/dp/B00D6I7EMU) and Barnes & Noble (http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/legend-of-korra-original-music-from-book-one/26323981?ean=888837444620) have this intriguing entries.
What could it mean? Could it be that the numerous petitions to Nickelodeon have finally paid off?! I know I’ll certainly be staying tuned!
…phew, that’s about everything, for now. Thank you all once again for contributions and support. Here’s hoping for some more amazing music from this series in the future.
And voila, they’re doing it. ‘The Legend of Korra: Original Music from Book One’, 26 tracks long, releasing July 16, so it’ll follow up the DVD/BluRay release of Book One on July 9.
I think I may explode with excitement, frankly. My guess is that they’ll hold off on announcing more information on Book Two for that release.
…perhaps you’re waiting to hear my analysis of it and whether it includes everything that’s been previously released yet? If so, check out my updated first post with the full run-down on my extended version of the official album here (http://forums.ffshrine.org/f92/avatar-last-airbender-expanded-score-legend-korra-97989/#post1836940)! The short version? My edition includes 10 extra minutes of Korra goodness, presented in chronological order of course, along with my usual plethora of custom covers. I’m certain that you’ll enjoy it!
If that wasn’t enough, Book 2 has recently premiered!
Unfortunately, we didn’t get a promo release of music like last season. We did, however, get another Korra Flash game, featuring music straight from the new season! Here for your listening pleasure is the short but ethereal main titles music for the Flash game featuring a lovely rendition of the main theme, as well as our first exciting action cue from the new season that plays as Mako chases down some hooligans through the busy streets of Republic City!

Aww Yeah….

What? All of the tracks that have been released so far from the second season of the incredible Legend Of Korra? You must’ve been a very good boy/girl this year!
That’s right, the main post has been updated with the small collection of tracks from Book 2 of Korra. Maybe if we’re all extra good, we might just see another official Legend Of Korra album released for Book 2!
Happy Holidays!
Wow, how did I not notice this before? Fixed up the link for you. Hope it works!
Thank for telling me! My MEGA account was flagged a while ago and I lost everything on it. I’m pretty sure I updated all of my links, but somehow this one fell under the radar. How did I miss that?
Anyways, hope you enjoy the music!
By the way, I’ll be updating Book 2 of Korra with some new goodies in the next couple of days, so keep your eye out!
Man, why does this keep happening?! Too many late nights editing these pages, most likely.
Fix’d!

Wow, you joined this site just for my thread? Golly!
Thanks for the offer of help; a lot of these cues come from a variety of different sources (which I would’ve surely lost track of a long time ago if not for me labelling them) so I always get paranoid that maybe out there I’m missing an amazing cue or two. It’s not just new tracks I’m looking for either; higher quality versions of the tracks posted here are also high on my priority list. So any help in scouring the web for anything would be great!
I think PM’ing me here on this site would be the best course of action, since I don’t have a Twitter account, or upload videos on Youtube, etc. If you still want to contact me via PM, just follow bishtyboshty’s advice and post another comment; that’ll allow you to send PM’s.
In the meantime, I didn’t see if you’d updated the Avatar soundtrack with a new (cleaned up?) version of Iroh’s Speech that Jeremy put on his soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/jeremy-zuckerman/irohs-speech. You might have and I missed it.

Ah yes, I took a quick listen to it a while ago. Is it actually cleaned up? Or is it just playing faster? It doesn’t sound much different from the previous version other than sounding a little higher pitch, but I have very little musical expertise so I’m not sure.

Good news! Jeremy Zuckerman has released the full theme on his SoundCloud!
https://soundcloud.com/jeremy-zuckerman/balance-legend-of-korra-book-4-trailer
anyone been able to get on that yet?
so the game ‘Legend of Korra’ uses music from the show I heard
anyone been able to get on that yet?
Trust me, I’ve been thinking (and hoping) the same thing, and I’m keeping a close eye on the situation. I haven’t found any information that confirms or denies whether there is music from the show in the game, though if I had to be pessimist I would say it’s likely not the case. Probably the best we can hope for is some remixed themes here and there. I’ll post more info when it comes to light!
the korra one even has some awesome Avatar Wan material
For now, check out this nice piece of music (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyGckycDsJ0&index=2) from the game that I’m going to double-check whether or not played in Book 2.
I uploaded the Korra game music and voices (Thread 181556), not sure if it’ll have anything new, but some are multi-layer.
and there is definitely new season2-like music in there
this made me think something new had happened
also Korra is officially over today
soundtracks when ๐
so probably never
a new track was posted on JZ’s soundcloud, but thats hardly enough
Here’s hoping, too, that an official release for the music from Books 2, 3 & 4 of The Legend Of Korra will also see the light of day. Until that time comes, I present to you quite possibly my last big update for this thread, including pretty much everything that has been released from this amazing series thus far. There are a slew of new tracks from Zuckerman’s SoundCloud (bless him for making available the finale music for pretty much every Book of Korra thus far) as well as suites from the 2014 Playfest event. New covers are also included, since the previous release only really had covers suitable for the second Book (back when the second Book was airing).
This isn’t to say that more updates aren’t on the way, but in terms of new music from The Legend Of Korra, with no new games on the way it all rest on Zuckerman’s shoulders to either release more music on his SoundCloud or for the executives at Nick to greenlight another album (or three).
As this is the last big update, I would like to thank everyone for both their kind words of encouragement, and in many cases their own help in helping compile the music for these incredible series together. This thread really is a collaborative effort, and the fact that it’s the most popular thread I’ve ever made is really a testament to how strongly we all feel about these shows. Thank you all, hope you’ve enjoyed the ride, and Merry Christmas!
I hope you guys can smash something together, perhaps a proper labelled and timed soundtrack, so here you go:

I am actually thinking of going over these files again and grabbing whatever music I haven’t already gotten (Aang vs. Ozai, Korra vs. Unalaq, etc.) from these but I don’t know how to convert the .ogg files. I usually use foobar2000 when converting FLAC and WAV but it says "converted with major errors" when I try to do these ones. Any ideas how I might be able to get around this, or perhaps I should be using another program?
You have to use revorb. (http://steamcommunity.com/app/281690/discussions/0/613939841557620206/)
Here’s hoping that they see the demand for an official release of the entire series soundtrack and decide to release it ๐
except then I start getting paranoid it will work against possible future releases somehow

Some music from the main menus might be able to be ripped cleanly ("Airbenders To The Rescue" is from one of the Book 3 Blu-Ray menus).
the bottom two have the music free of most soundeffects and voices
but in return it also sounds less natural (drums especially lose some power)

Would you be able to get one of the "previously, on korra…" segments that plays before each episode with the radio announcer guy recapping in that manner? That’s the piece I’ve always wanted.
still better than nothing
Last Time on Korra (http://www.mediafire.com/listen/gd5m7aig3rv3bd7/Last+Time+on+Korra.mp3)
on another note
here is an example of how the bottom channel sounds once (taking a small bit from episode 10 of book 3)
310 Desert Ride (http://www.mediafire.com/listen/62wyw2jox4x24m3/310+Desert+Ride.mp3)
There were some weird omissions on the album. I guess they assumed everybody already had "The Rally" and "Amon in the Shadows" anyway.
If leaving out "The Rally" and "Amon In The Shadows" meant they were able to add more unreleased material then I’m fine with them leaving them out. Still would’ve been nice to have them in high quality, especially "The Rally" since that cue had to be stitched together from different sources.

My apologies. Was enjoying the cue too much for me to upload it straight away. But allow me to add now…oh my goodness. And it wasn’t a throwaway cue like "Sleeping…Not Waking" either, but a major cue many people have been looking for. Here’s hoping this is a sign of things to come, with Zuckerman potentially releasing new cues periodically. I’m so excited about this.
Anyways, thanks for linking this in my laziness-induced absence, Kadron!
and yeah this a bigger cue
parts of it also played during the metal healing scene and when korra bends the spiritlaser/opens a new portal (albeit rearranged)
Heck looking back, part of it was used way back in season2 when the Harmonic Convergence ended

You’re 100% right. I love how it also includes the "Korra Alone" subtheme. I feel like Zuckerman really hit his stride musically in Books 3 & 4, especially in terms of thematic development (love that Bolin ended up with a theme). Such a shame about the album situation, but Zuckerman did say that another album wasn’t completely dead yet, so who knows? I’d love another Korra game to be released so we could perhaps get some more music from Books 3 & 4.

We really have nothing from Book 3, don’t we? We have the trailer theme, the ending music and one short cue ripped from a DVD, and that’s it. Here’s hoping we can get Korra Vs. Zaheer released someday!
Has anyone ripped the menu music from the Blu-Rays? As I recall, volumes 2, 3, and 4 have tracks that haven’t seen any sort of release.
"Airbenders To The Rescue" is ripped from a Blu-Ray menu, I believe. I’m not sure if the other menu music is new music.
Oh, and Merry Christmas to all!
including an excerpt from ‘Venom of the Red Lotus’ the massive final battle track of Korra season 3
I really hope this is a sign of things to come
Anyway it could be re-uploaded someplace not media fire?

Along with this, I’m also wondering if someone skilled enough will create a FLAC re-release now that we’ve got lossless 24-bit 48KHz audio tracks on the new Blu-ray. So far Dragon Ball Z’s Bruce Faulconer score has not seen unreleased FLAC versions since its respective Blu-ray release, but that doesn’t mean the same should be the case for ATLA.

I’m not sure where the "edit 60" comes from, but the first download I found that compiled unofficially released music had something "Scarf Dance" as the 6th track misnamed "Scraf Dance," and this youtube video dates to 2008. According to the fan wiki, it was meant to accompany a deleted scene from "The Headband" of Sokka dancing on his own, but I find nothing to verify that. The track itself is a library cue by Jonathan Geer (who, as far as I know, never worked on Avatar) from 2006 (you can find it in the AudioSparx production library’s database) and they’ve monetized this old video. I don’t know how it every became associated with Avatar, but it’s probably just some filesharing mislabeling.

Unfortunately, the Blu-Ray is still just 2-channel audio.
Thank you very much for sharing ! The music for both The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra are amazing !

I think its more like the left and right channels were separated into their own music files for some reason. I just pasted them together (for those where it was possible) in audacity
Unfortunately, the Blu-Ray is still just 2-channel audio.
I actually verified that, and the complete series Blu-Ray set is 5.1.
Interesting…
Although if I were to be completely honest here (controversial opinion incoming), I prefer Zuckerman’s work on ‘Korra’ over ‘Airbender’; there’s more of a mind towards themes and the sound feels more fleshed out with less of an emphasis on ‘Mickey-Mousing’ (which is not always a bad thing but is a little distracting over the course of a whole series). I also feel that I’ve got all the cues I really wanted out of ‘Airbender’ already, whereas ‘Korra’ is still missing a handful of really important cues, particularly Book 3 (seriously, where’s Korra vs. Zaheer? WHERE IS IT).
Anyways, that’s my $0.02 worth.
When I checked it still only showed 2 channels of audio and 4 empty ones.
But then I dont know if I have the right source.
Just download the Book 1 soundtrack from here and delete the extra tracks if you don’t want them. The tracklist lays out where each track comes from.
Thank you, I will keep it compiled with the bonus tracks. I wanted to know what happened to the multibook soundtrack release of The Legend of Korra.
The fb post of the composer has vanished since.

Thats annoying to hear. I wish he could just do what the Voltron composer was doing on his soundcloud.
https://www21.zippyshare.com/v/4GEJFf14/file.html
I extracted the music with audacity, nothing fancy
That’s weird, I always wonder how he can do that. Composers are bounded by contracts, to release soundtrack in any way they must have an approval. I have been requesting from a composer a full score as the one Brad Breeck shared on his souncloud. The composer said "My hands are tied, I can’t do anything if my boss say no, it’s no" even with an authorization letter it didn’t worked (14 years). Regarding Sir Zuckerman, he did not answered me, when he saw the printscreen I had sent. And since he deleted his post from his official page I suppose it must have been canceled since (I think he really wanted to release the multibook soundtrack, but something happened)..
Steven Universe was also decent at it, until they actually started releasing soundtracks (wtih just songs mind you)
The big execs just treat background music as trash.

I extracted the music with audacity, nothing fancy
Oh no, I’m too late. The link’s dead.
Pretty sure the Book 1 menu track is just "Firebending Training," which is on the Korra CD. And, as someone else said in this thread, Book 4’s track is "Airbenders to the Rescue," though it looks like that track from this thread is only at 180kbps, so it’d be nice to get a higher quality version of it. And I can’t place the menu themes for Books 2 and 3 at all. Maybe I’m just not recognizing them, but I don’t think those two themes are released anywhere else. I own the Blu Rays, but I have none of the necessary hardware nor technical know-how to rip the tracks myself.

My thanks to both of you.
I’ve just finished watching the series (only TLA, I don’t have plans for Korra yet) and I was searching for some of its music.
All we have from TLA is just those 43 tracks, right? Or there’s more?
Anyway, I just looked in Zuckerman’s Soundcloud and found this, a live performance of a suite: https://soundcloud.com/jeremy-zuckerman/avatar-the-last-airbender-suite-playfest-2014-malaga

Just those tracks, unfortunately. For a long time a few tracks would come out here and there through SoundCloud, various podcasts, etc, but the flow has somewhat been stemmed the past couple of years. Tbh, I’m quite happy with the amount of music we have for ATLA, at least for me it has all the tracks that I want and consider important. Korra is the real tragedy, since it’s more thematically complex and there’s less balance in it in regards to released materials. That is to say, ATLA has a pretty even distribution of songs across its three books but Korra has the majority of tracks from Book 1 (because they released an album) and Book 2 (through the various videogames) but scarcely anything from Books 3 and 4 except through SoundCloud. Especially Book 3: just the trailer music, the ending music "Service & Sacrifice" and two very brief snippets. Pretty much nothing else. The music for the Korra vs. Zaheer fight is, in my opinion, the holy grail of unreleased Avatar music, and I really would like to see it surface someday. I held out hope that Zuckerman would put it up on SoundCloud like he did for a lot of Book 4’s finale music but not so much a peep for the last two years. Bleh.
Also, the live performance suite from Playfest 2014 (there’s two btw, one for ATLA and one for Korra) are included in my second Korra compilation. The ATLA one is just the opening titles and the "Peace" cue together, but the Korra suite is more interesting and dynamic, and includes some unreleased material.
Glad you enjoyed the music for ATLA (and the series too I hope). In my opinion you should also watch Korra. It’s shorter so its not as much of a time commitment, and the music is, again in my opinion, a significant step up from ATLA.
While I felt that Book 1-2 were just nice (I always felt that the pacing in each episode was way too fast for its own good, but it allowed for a lot of progression in a small amount of episodes), Book 3 is decisively the best one. Almost every episode is a step up in many ways, they managed to do many compelling things.
Overall, I found it good, but not one of my favourites as for many others (like my friend who first recommended it to me).
The music… I never managed to pay too much attention to it, unfortunately (again, the pacing is too far, key scenes are delivered in a shorter time and musical moments end up being too short and too many). But I hope with a separate listen I can appreciate it much more.
Also, I didn’t really like the synthetic sound of the music but it does its job. Am I wrong or in the last episodes of Book 3 they hired a real orchestra to performing the music?
As for Korra, I don’t know.
Many (if not all, as far as I heard) of the characters are long gone and I keep hearing mixed reactions to it.
Considering that I didn’t really have a passion for ATLA in the first place, I doubt I’d want to watch the entirety of Korra as well.
