THE SCORE by Heiko Maile<br />

THE MUSIC<br />

Heiko Maile is a musician, composer and founding member of Camouflage –<br />

internationally known from hits like "Love Is A Shield" and "The Great Commandment" –<br />

with whom he has released seven albums and numerous singles over the band's 25year<br />

history.<br />

Heiko freelances as a producer, composer and keyboarder in Stuttgart, Berlin and as<br />

part of the Frankfurt composers' collective "Gutleut.tv".<br />

His musical forte is composing and creating electronic music. Working closely with the<br />

director, he crafted a film score for THE CROCODILES heavily influenced by<br />

contemporary youth trends.<br />

THE THEME SONG:<br />

Apollo 3 - "Superhelden" (Sony Music)<br />

"I believe in you, just like you believe in me!" raps Marvin, 12-year-old MC of aPOLLO<br />

3. Driven by Dario's energetic guitar riffs, Henry makes it clear in the refrain: "You can<br />

be, you can be a superhero!" And that's not only what the theme song is about, but the<br />

whole movie as well: Courage and friendship, and how together they can make you a<br />

superhero.<br />

Just like the NASA missions they get their name from, aPOLLO 3 consists of three<br />

crew members. Henry, the thoughtful singer, has a voiuce full of depth and emotion. MC<br />

Marvin adds the requisite coolness and street cred to their tracks with his stylish raps.<br />

And with his jagged-edge, massive guitar riffs, Dario supplies the adrenaline-heavy rock<br />

backing.<br />

The three 12-year-olds have been on their mission since 2006, when they met in school<br />

and began locking themselves into Henry's basement to make music. More or less by<br />

accident, their teacher found out about their band and introduced them to a music<br />

producer she knew: Niko visited the kids at school, sat down at the drum kit with them<br />

and started jamming with them – and was totally exhilarated by his find. Niko and the<br />

kids worked on their tracks for a year until playing "Superheroes" for the filmmakers,<br />

who were so excited they immediately turned it into the title track of the film.<br />

After the film release on March 26 th , 2009, the single hit the stores April 3 rd and has<br />

been in the German Top 100 ever since, putting the kids one step closer to their idols<br />

like Linkin Park and Green Day, and their goal of being the world's youngest rock band.<br />

aPOLLO 3 are three kids on a mission.<br />
