Ninjago Soundtrack

The music of LEGO Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu is composed and produced in conjunction with the development of the TV series based on the LEGO toy line. The series' score has been written by Jay Vincent and Michael Kramer since it began in 2011, with Jay and Michael having written the scores for all eight seasons and a TV special.

Initially, Jay and Michael composed leitmotifs such as the overture, which is reprised frequently throughout the series, as well as themes for the Serpentine, the Green Ninja, and Lord Garmadon. As the series progressed, the themes evolved, with each of the primary antagonists also receiving their own themes.

Despite the popularity of the series' score, little of it has been officially released through soundtrack albums. Albums for the first and second seasons were released in 2014 and 2016, respectively. Jay Vincent began releasing the score on his YouTube channel in August 2012, but stopped doing so in November 2017. Michael Kramer started a YouTube channel in September 2017, and has released many tracks since.

The Overture
The overture was introduced in season one; it is often played with a flute, and has had various renditions with horns, strings and other instruments. It serves as the most iconic and reprised theme in the series. The overture serves as the theme for the Ninja, and is often played during their scenes, regardless of what is happening. Triumphant renditions of the theme have been played during action scenes, while more mournful, sad versions have been played in tracks such as "What Powered Zane".

Serpentine Theme
The Serpentine theme was introduced in season one; it is often played as a harpsichord and evokes a more mysterious and sinister vibe. The theme was reprised numerous times throughout the first four seasons, although it has not been reprised much since.

Green Ninja Theme
The Green Ninja theme was introduced in season one; it is often played with a flute or horns, and doubles as a theme for Lloyd Garmadon, who is the Green Ninja. The theme has been reprised numerous times all throughout the series, up to and including season eight. Various renditions have been used, including a sad and mournful version, and a triumphant and uplifting version. The track "Revealing The Green Ninja" embodies various versions of the theme.

Lord Garmadon's Theme
Lord Garmadon's theme was introduced in season one, and serves as one of two themes for Garmadon; it is often played through strings. The theme was reprised numerous times from seasons one to three. Garmadon's leitmotif is shorter than other themes, and evokes an evil and sinister vibe for the King of Shadows.

The theme was frequently reprised in season eight, which focused on Lord Garmadon's resurrection. The main notes of the theme were used as the basis for the Sons of Garmadons' theme, which is essentially a more fast-paced variant of Lord Garmadon's theme.

Garmadon's Theme
Garmadon's theme was introduced in season one, and serves as one of two themes for Garmadon; it is often played through strings. The theme has been reprised numerous times all throughout the series, up to and including season eight. The theme represents the good side of Garmadon's character, which breaks through at the end of season two. The theme has often been reprised through sad renditions, in tracks such as "Horns of Destruction", "Battle at the Fire Temple", "Something's Gotten Into Lloyd" and "Cursing Chen's Army". The theme has also represented the conflict between Lloyd and his father when he was evil. The theme was more frequently reprised towards the end of season eight, to showcase the return of this conflict following Garmadon's resurrection.
