ThemeAnthology just mentioned Johnston's BMI page--which I have seen before. This is probably the most general & elementary question to be asked on this site--and I'm 91% sure someone must've already asked it, but how exactly does this site have access to new entrance themes that're freshly released from the producers? Does the site have an inside man in Stamford, CT and in Tennessee somewhere? It's easy to figure out that entrance themes that've been released years ago are simply uploaded by users whom already have them - but how would someone have an entrance theme that's never been released on CD in the first place - and how do we know which production libraries some songs are from?

That's something I've been unclear about since I registered here & if someone can plainly and directly explain the answer for myself & all others interested in this phenomenon, it'd be much appreciated. -ha- Thanks!

I can answer that one, some people here spend time on the production libraries searching for the themes (among other things) and after a while they seem to get acquanted to what is on what library, therefore when they hear them on the TV can track them down quicker and easier.

That definitely answers one part of it (probably the harder part, in fact). Thanks, Dean!!

No probs.

Yeah, some are from production libraries that people have accounts or can download from (obviously not affiliated with WWE), some can be obtained through the artists MySpace , Youtube or even CD (i.e. Show/Jericho and WWE Superstars theme), and some can be partially released on WWE.com from the titantrons.

Yeah and when it comes to TNA they usually let their server open

also some are recordings from when they used it none of those are full that i know of and most have unknown titles

Intentionally, you believe?

No he was just joking after the last batch of TNA themes were released on a server. They don't do that at all, normally. That was a 1 in a million chance.

Ooo wow, okay. I was wondering how "Psychotic" et al made their way onto Xylot out of nowhere. Hopefully it happens again! -ha-

Not exactly a noob question but neither an obvious one.
Well, if themes are Johnston made, we can get it from recordings on TV/Promos, from WWE.com or WWE Sites (specially Superstars Titantrons), from WWE Games and of course, WWE CDs. We try to edit the song if its full to what WWE actually used.
But with the latest resources, we can get it from other sources like the the artist itself if it wasnt Johnston (haha, its impossible so far to get something directly from Johnston).

For Production, you already got answered.

Thanks for the responses, guys! I believe "Superstars Titantrons" was the answer I was mainly looking for. That's the one I really didn't know anything about. Thanks!

Titantrons are kinda the same except you cant get them from the "artist" or from "production libraries"
edit: and WWE CDs XD

Did anyone mention the video games as well? Those are sometimes great sources for entrance themes, especially now that themes are 3:10 in length (although looped).

Yep, it was mentioned
