[Notes]
When it comes to original soundtrack composer-legends, we often overlook one
of the greatest. Take Vince DiCola for example, he's left a legacy of truly
inspirational synthesiser music scattered over a non-linear timeline.
Although it bares a fractal resemblance to the sound of the 1980s, his work
sounds timeless, making him a true 21st century renaissance man.
Now the legendary figure is reissuing a remastered version of the
Transformers: The Movie Soundtrack. No, not the recently washed-up billion
dollar Hollywood production but the true original rockin' feature length
cartoon movie, released in 1986. An epic work of adventure to say the least.
Although his original scores for Sylvester Stallone's Rocky IV is arguably
the work he's most well known for, the Transformers soundtrack is a sublime
tour-de-force and can been seen at his most career defining work. Needless
to say his fans are creaming their pants (your author included) that this
work is finally available, complete with bonus tracks and a recomposed
medley.
DiCola was one of the first to maximise the capability of the Fairlight CMI,
the first Computer Musical Instrument based on digital sampling. An honour
and privilege, usually used by multi-instrumentalists, because only the
greatest of the great got to work with the revolutionary Fairlight CMI
machine. (We suspect hipster-house producer deadmau5 has one in his living
room asa piece of furniture). Nonetheless, we're talking about unpretentious
talent here and his actual usage of the Fairlight CMI cements his name among
the greats such as Keith Emerson, Jan Hammer, Mick Fleetwood to name but a
few.
Coming back to Keith Emerson. If you listen and understand DiCola's music
you can tell he's truly inspired by Emerson. When he's asked who his
influences are, DiCola will mainly name The Beatles and Keith Emerson. His
crazy time signatures and complex melodies not only pay tribute to one of
his biggest musical heroes but are strong enough to stand out on his own.
Try it at home, it's not an easy thing to do at all, yet it all feels
natural to DiCola. Combine the authentic Emerson sound with even more
science fiction and adventure, a healthy dose of orchestral stabs and ass
kicking hard rock and you've got the true Vince DiCola sound. You, dear
reader, don't want to miss out on this adventurous reissue of Transformers:
The Movie (1986).
