For those who want to know which parts of the soundtrack are from Billy Martin:
(thats not all, you can imagine the rest)
Also the tetris level and music from the e3 2011 demo are cut, aren't they?
edit:
Another interview with Hearl about Rayman, Tintin and BGE. Not much new, but some intressting details can be found:
Think I definitely prefer Martin's music. It's a lot more true to the music from the original game, whereas the Heral stuff could be from any game.

Rayman won several new fans? Yes. He lost a lot of older fans? sadly, yes, because they're idiots.
Yeah, those retrofags who don't accept Rayman's change and say "NO WAY, I HATE RAYMAN NOW, HE'S A CHILDISH PERVERT, THE RABBIDS JUST RUINED HIM ADSFSAFA" or those who say "I would have prefered a serious 3d rayman game, like rayman 2 or 3, this game is just a crappy flashgame". I know tons of Rayman fans that left the franchise just for this, and believe me, they're missing an incredible gaming experience.
I lost interest in the franchise when the third game came out, so I definitely didn't want another 3D adventure, serious or not. I had played
Rayman 2 and although it was a good game, I couldn't help but feel disappointed that it was so disconnected from the first game, both in terms of gameplay and story. Then
Rayman 3 came out and I was again disappointed that it was 3D. I played the game once or twice but quickly lost interest. Obviously I had almost completely written off the Rayman games when the Rabbids entered the scene, but I'd already lost interest in the franchise by that point anyway.
But then they made this game, which is a real return to form. It's packed with characters and features that were present in the first game, it features the same 2D gameplay as the first game and some of the music is very similar to the first game. It's not as good as
Rayman 1, but I never thought it would be.
Rayman 1 was released during the early to mid 90s, which was a very special time for gaming and I doubt that will ever be replicated.
Rayman 1 will always be the greatest, for this reason and many others.
I can't imagine why any sane person would want to leave the franchise now, of all times...
