Ssss. This may come off as egotistical, and it’s not meant so, certainly: it’s really interesting, and yes amusing, when people assume something countre to their opinion is meant acidically. Yes, I’ve heard K-dude. Naturally, since someone mentioned him on myspace, I went and looked him up. Even before I studied music I could tell you it was an endless run of 4/4 bars with little to no harmony. In more technical words, K-dude doesn’t use any formal musical structures - even self-designed - he just takes sounds from some device, uses filters to alter them, sequences simples rhythms, stacks various textures, and then repeats until the next set. Kids can, and do, do this. Doesn’t take any ‘craft’.

Sorry for your bitterness. Although todays popcul may not really know what music is, they are the ones who buy the tickets to see films.
Have you actually heard Kromaticmans music? It doesnt really matter whether you like it or not because he’s already known in Europe and Japan. And those are the countries that matter anyways.

peace and may your day not be so bitter.

Sadly, no. In popcul, there’s an inability of the general populace to understand what music is. Stuff like Kromaticman isn’t music. But likely this ‘movie’ won’t really be a story, either, so good riddance.

Sorry Steph, although I do see your point that the music for Tron 2 should be orchestrated at top notch, I have given Kromaticman a listen and i do believe this composer has potential and ability to go far in his music career. I also feel that this future generation needs to hear something new and exciting.

Kromaticman…who ever you are…keep it up
this is something you were truly meant to do.

Um, I would hope not. That dude is just one of your average wanna-be techno-electronica wanna-bes. A real composer who understands orchestration, and doesn’t need repetition (like in the original, Wendy Carlos) would help ensure this remake isn’t an adolescent beast.

If they do make a sequel to TRON, kromaticman should provide the music score for the film.

I just heard his music on myspace.

thanx for the info.

Logun’s Run, another great film of its time. Another film that should have Kromaticman playing its soundtrack. Maybe someone in the movie business or Walt Disney will read this and wise up.
Kromaticman is not a band, but a one man solo artist. No one would believe it by listening to his music.
One day Kromaticman will be BIG. But who will be the one to discover him? Are you listening world of film?

I believe that the next “Tron” movie should have some futuristic sound to it. Who better to deliver that sound but “Kromaticman”
If Steven Lisberger or Sean Bailey is reading this then they should give a listen to Kromaticman. The name alone says it all.
Kromaticman has been a big fan of Tron since the movie first came out in 1982. In fact, you could say that Kromaticmans sound was greatly influenced by the movie TRON.

By “extensive computer generated graphics and effects,” you mean about 15 minutes? :)

yes, by 1980s metric, that was a large amt of CG, but i think many people are under a false impression about exactly how much of Tron was actual CG.
