Transformers: The Score
Steve Jablonsky\'s Transformers score may sound deceptively like it was written on autopilot to fit the Bruckheimer model of action scoring made famous in Bad Boys, The Rock and Pearl Harbor, then parodied in Team America: World Police. And in some ways, it does follow this newly clichéd sound. However, this sound is perfectly appropriate for Bay\'s Transformers and yet Jablonsky\'s score has an impressive depth to it. To start, he wrote a half dozen themes for the film. String solos over electronic percussion and an impressive choral presence make this score a bit more than meets the ear on the first impression.
Reviews of this score have been mixed, often criticizing the traditional Bruckheimer/Zimmer sound for a summer blockbuster and lamenting the lack of any musical ideas from the \'s cartoons. On the first point, Jablonsky was hired to compose a score for a Bay science fiction action picture; Bay clearly has certain sounds in mind when hiring someone for this task. What Jablonsky did was take a more organic approach than necessary, using a choir and live orchestra when a synthesized score would have worked fine for the productio
Let&#;s Talk About Steve Jablonsky&#;s &#;Transformers&#; Scores
First of all, as we begin, let me emphasize that I&#;m no music expert. I have no background in music. I can&#;t speak to any technicalities regarding chords, melodies, or music theory. I&#;m just someone who deeply loves musical scores from film and listens to them like it&#;s their job. If you&#;ve ever listened to the podcast, you&#;ll know that it&#;s something that I talk about regularly. So, with that in mind, it&#;s time we recognize Steve Jablonsky&#;s Transformers scores as some of the best we&#;ve heard from any major blockbuster in the last thirty years.
Perhaps they&#;re not widely talked about because Michael Bay&#;s Transformers are not highly touted in any way, shape, or form. They made a lot of money, sure, but not many are claiming them to be among the better franchises we&#;ve seen over the last 15 years. So it&#;s understandable that certain aspects of those films will be overlooked. However, I&#;m going to make my case for why Jablonsky has earned his spot among the top tier of blockbuster scores. And it all starts here with &#;Arrival to Earth&#; from the first Transformers.
