In 1995, film composer Jerry Goldsmith composed a short piece of music to accompany the Judge Dredd teaser trailer. The music caught the attention of many film music fans, including myself, and inevitably inspired me to write my own take on the trailer on my humble Yamaha PSR-500 keyboard. It's one of those pieces that I always meant to come back to and "fix up" when I had the chance. Well, it's almost 14 years later and I finally got around to remaking the piece. It was definitely an interesting experience revisiting my own music after so many years and reworking it. I hope you enjoy it. Please let me know what you think.

This piece is dedicated to the late Jerry Goldsmith for his many contributions to film music and for inspiring me to write this piece in the first place. In 1999, I was lucky enough to attend his 70th birthday concert at the Hollywood Bowl, and it was a rare treat indeed.

Instruments:
- EWQLSO Gold
- Motif XS
- PSR-500 ...still ticking... couldn't leave out my old workhorse from all the fun, now could I? :)

Sequenced in Cubase AI4

P.S. If you're looking for the original Goldsmith music, film composer John Beal has a fantastic and extremely faithful recreation on his trailer music album:

  • Thanks! It was inspired and pays homage to the original Judge Dredd trailer music composed by film composer Jerry Goldsmith. I was gonna link you to a sample, but I couldn't find it any more on youtube.. there are other Dredd trailers posted on youtube, but they all contain edited versions of his music.. covered up with dialogue.. oh well.. Glad you enjoyed it!

  • Great job, i love the fast pace to it. Its like a epic race to the finish.
