Michael’s score for the feature film “Into The Wild”, was written and directed by Sean Penn. The score was nominated by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for a Golden Globe award for Best Score. Michael’s powerful compositions for the film are available via Lakeshore Records and exclusively on Itunes.
Press reviews
“Featuring the entire 36-track score by guitarist and composer Michael Brook, this punchy and daring piece of work does more than just evoke the emotions of the film; it pulls the listener into a world of loneliness, intrigue, and pure musical expression.” -hubpages.com
“With a mix of guitar, harmonica, some drums, and a dash of violin (among other things), Brook has created a veritable masterpiece of audio presentation, matching the film’s intense portrayal of Christopher McCandless’s memorable tale frame for frame… Michael Brook’s Into the Wild is still a strikingly original piece of work.With muffled drums and a moaning guitar, Brook succeeds in both celebrating and mourning the passing of a rebellious legend.” -hubpages.com

Thank you for creating this music. It brings out all the emotions from the movie, which has opened my eyes wider to this life and its core issues. “Best Unsaid” is simply incomparable!

Just caught the end of the film but was captivated by the sound track during the credits. To help answer similar question above I am guessing the last track and song was by Eddie Vedder (of Pearl Jam).

and the rapids for the second place).
Great job !

On a rainy friday night, I saw the best film I had ever seen: “Into the wild”. The scenery and acting prestations deserved nothing but chocolate chip cookies. But where I am here for is the music ofcourse. I was so stunned by this magical composition, that I did something I had never done Before in my life. I looked up who made this heaven of music. I came out on Michael Brook, and I had never heard of him before. You’re CD is not coming out of my stereo installation anymore Mr Brook, it found a nice place there and its staying there, i hope i can soon find some other CD to put next to it, so they can make wonderful babies to throw me over.
Waiting for more,
Arne

Hi. what is the song that plays when When Katherine Keener gives Emile a ride out of Slab town/city?
April 8th, 2009 at 5:45 am
Marque,
I’m also wondering what that piece of music is because it isn’t included on the soundtrack which is a real shame as it is really beautiful. Great music Mr. Brook. Absolutely wonderful use of banjo, guitars, etc.

anyone know what chords are played in the “waking waterskier” and “arriving at the slabs”? they are the same chords and are repeated throughout the movie and they’re very beautiful.
April 11th, 2009 at 5:12 pm
One of the most beautiful scores I’ve ever heard. I’ve been listening to it non stop for more nights than I can count now.
Is there any possibility to get tabs for guitar or just the notes from somewhere?
I would love to learn some of these amazing pieces.
Pure beauty.

Thanks for be an artist of the music… things like this can let us to fly. Thank you for bring us this oportunity by the music way

Hey Mr. Brook,
You wrote a song for the movie called “I Saw It” and it is not iTunes for download. I think is the song that is played in the scene when Ron Franz is driving Chris McCandless right before he asks to adopt him. I was wondering if there is a place where I can buy that song because its amazing.
Thanks

brilliant album but i was wondering (like a couple other people)…what is the track played when chris is leaving slab city??? its not on this album or on eddie vedders and is possibly my favourite in the movie?? was really disappointed when it wasnt on this album but a great album anyway!
June 11th, 2009 at 9:03 am
This score is just incredibly beautiful…! I’ve been looking and searching every where to get it on CD but without any results. I can’t wait to have it in my stereo so I would like to ask: HOW DO I BUY THIS ALBUM ?
June 18th, 2009 at 10:14 pm
I couldn’t really get into some of the other soundtracks Brook has done but this one is returning to the ‘old form’ of Michael Brook, really, really nice. Kind of an updated Cobalt Blue. Second to this, that extract from Cobalt Blue used in the Michael Moore movie Heat. Wow!
June 28th, 2009 at 7:10 pm
Incredible movie and score. Thanks Mr. Brook. The answer to the question about the music playing as Chris and Jan are leaving Slab city is “Doing the wrong thing” by Kaki King. Like you guys I love that part.
July 11th, 2009 at 5:05 pm
Why the music of Into the wild it’s not disponible in CD for buy??
July 16th, 2009 at 2:34 pm
Love it, but how do I get the song “I Saw It” ???
August 1st, 2009 at 11:05 am
We need this on CD Michael! Please! Keep making wonderful music :)
August 1st, 2009 at 9:37 pm
I listened to excerpts of this magnificent score for what I consider to be one of the best movies of all time. One plaguing question though; the haunting guitar track played during the scene where Chris/Emile is laying in his dark bus after consuming the poisoned potato root.. clutching his rifle… the same guitar music that segues to last scenes with Ron Franz in his laundry room and in the truck…. I can’t find that piece anywhere…. can anyone assist?
October 18th, 2009 at 11:02 am
I have to say…Every song in this album put my on an emotional roller coaster. I am in love with this album and I will buy it with sooo much pleasure! Respect to Michael Brook and Sean Penn (And of course Eddie Vedder.)
October 22nd, 2009 at 9:17 am
Thank you so much Travis :) as I was scrolling down these posts, I was dying because I thought no one had the answer. I love this song.
Amazing score.
October 25th, 2009 at 8:51 am
what is the track played when chris is leaving slab city??? its not on this album or on eddie vedders and is possibly my favourite in the movie?? was really disappointed when it wasnt on this album
Could somebody please answer this question I really want to know the name of this song as well…..
November 1st, 2009 at 1:17 am
Which song is playing at the very end of “Into the wild” before the credits are rolling just as hes dying in the “Magic” bus
November 11th, 2009 at 1:41 am
The tract when Chris is leaving Slab City is
doing the wrong thing
by Kaki King
One of my favorite songs, aswell as one of my favorite scores
so beautiful!

I saw this movie several times downloaded the Eddie Vedder Soundtrack on itunes. Then I found on You Tube the Song called Best Unsaid, that title is such a Power Melodie, so i got the entire CD on itunes the Original Score.
The Movie - The Sound Track and the Original Score is amazing.
If i want drown in minds get quiet I listen to your Soundtrack it make me calm down consider what is the real life made for to get a distance from the society that always fence me in.
