Vince Dicola's WAR (from Rocky IV) recreated

[@CallousCoder]

Vince DiCola is a genius! Him, Jean Michelle and Vangelis made learn the keys. And then I left the keys for 26 years to solely go the guitar route. And now I combine the two. For that ultimate 80s sound. They seem to be a match in heaven. Like a cello and a viola.

[@juliancroot]

Vince, Jean and Vangelis all inspired me too.... Each are different but geniuses in their own way. Keep on creating 👍 and thanks for commenting.

That guy is super good!" He was talking about you recreating "War" and before I told him where this song comes from, he says "Now I want to hear Minions do the 'bum-bum-bum' with this song" I couldnt say anything for a bit and I told him, "... Now that sounds interesting! I want to hear it too." 😂

Great job. Would love to see you tackle Escape or Autobot/Decepticon Battle from DiCola's Transformers score, and yes, tutorials for the instrument sounds would be amazing.

[@juliancroot]

Thanks. Yeah, I've listened to Vince's Transformers score and its in similar style. It's a cover candidate for sure. It's difficult to do a sound tutorial because there are so many parts, and most of them are a blend of multiple sounds. The main synth brass lead is blend of about 4 or 5 synthetic and real brass sounds, and a little synth strings thrown in to help stitch it together.
