Audio samples from film based on J.R.R Tolkien's
"
Lord of the Rings"


Tolkien (1892-1973) was an Oxford professor. He was the first to make a fantasy story, still considered the greatest of them all. Tolkien's profession gave him good knowledge in ancient nordic folklore, its language and the ASA-belief (ASAR: The nordic gods) that the Vikings believed in.

He did not only create a dazzling story. He made detailed maps over Middle-earth; he also created several
languages for each of the races that lived in Middle-earth. It is said that what intiated his story, was that he every night told his childreen a bedtime story.

Added some new audio samples.
Audio Samples 
Audio samples were recorded in 1995 with a SB 8.bit, from a VHS-video cassette. So don't expect any high quality Audio was later converted to RealAudio format.
I have samples as streamline audio, ie. you listen to the files as you download it.

 

 
The beginning

Ringravers  
Since I don't have a degree in English (You might have noticed already)
I can't really make out what he says..is it RINGRAVERS ? (Do they dance alot !?)
Update 971009 It's Ringwraith(s) ! (Thanks
Dirk & Sigilind)
Anyway it's the story about the nine
ringwraiths, whose only mission is to find the one ring.

Come Back  
Ringwraiths invites Frodo to Mordor for a cup of tea.

Gollum

Smeagol becomes Gollum I
Smeagol becomes Gollum II
Many years after King Isildur lost the ring, Smeagol took the ring from his friend Deagol, after Smeagol having killed his friend.
Smeagol became more and more posessed by ring and evil. He became an outcasted by his own people and settled down in the mines of Moria, where he became Gollum.

Cautious my precious  
Gollum the the thing with serious personality problem. He always talks with himself in third person.

Trapped Gollum  
Gollum is caught by Frodo and Sam.

Happy Gollum  
Gollum is absolutely delighted, when offered to tag along with Frodo and Sam.

Trustworthy Gollum  
Gollum promises to be loyal to the ringbearer.

Pathfinder Gollum 
Off we go, follow Smeagol !

Stealth Gollum  
Gollum, as always sneaking around.

Safe & Secret Gollum 
Gollum knows a safe and secret way to Mordor..

Orc

Bed & Breakfast  
Merry and Pippin has been captured by some bad-tempered orcs.
Pippin asks when they will get bed and breakfast.
The orc cmd informs that b&b is only available in Isengard.

Waste of arrows  
Orc cmd is to say the least a bit crossed, when his soldiers shoots away arrows when the enemy is out reach.

Orc March Song  
The orc hordes comes marhing over the hill. The sky sky is blodread and dark orc-silouttes in thousands comes visible. Combat is near.
(A great party-song, to be played in repeat-mode ! ;-))

Gandalf

The war of the ring has begun 
Gandalf makes the sad conclusion.

Balrog 
Gandalf faces the "Not your idea of a cozy pet": Balrog !

Gandalf: Servant of the secret fire
Gandalf commands Balrog to go back to the shadows

Gandalf gets more clear in his demand 
Balrog didn't seem too impressed with Gandalf's: "Servant of the secret fire" phrase, so Gandalf gets more precise in his demands.

Dark roads  
Gandalf speaks of his struggles after he defeated the evil Balrog. Balrog and Gandalf met in fierceful combat in the mines of Moria.

Gandalf Stormcrow, troubles follows him.
Gandalf, by some considered the ultimate party-crasher.

 

Other

Treebeard  
The tree-herder Treebeard isn't entirely on anyones side, since nobody is entirely on his side.
(We should need Treebeard with us now,..cut a tree in the Amazon's and meet the wrath of Treebeard. Treebeard looks like a mutation between a tree and Santa Claus)

King Theoden feels heroic
King Theoden and his men are trapped at Helms Horn.
