This really is a great song. Vince DiCola is a great musician and made some of the most iconic songs of 1980s films. The training montage in Rocky 4 single handedly ended the Cold War.

One thing I did notice in this song, which I find kind of interesting, is the little bit at 1:12 and 1:28. Really reminds me of the NES Jaws game, specifically the Airplane sequence.

Don’t misunderstand, I’m not trying to say it is ripped off or anything, it’s just what that part makes me think of. Gives me somewhat fond memories.

Loved it. Didn’t totally feel the Picardy 3rd at the end but if you were then more power to you. This track displays your ability to really key in on such a unique genre and to maybe even progress it beyond what it was back in the 80s, dare I say it. If you ever made an album in this style (granted that would be hard to do without becoming repetitive) I’d buy it in a heartbeat.

That sounds awesome, a great Dicola sound alike.

Keep up the great work!

Excellent, the Vince DiCola sound reproduction is perfect. :)

Like you, I think Vince DiCola is an inspiration. I was mortified that they got some other punk to do the music for the live-action Transformers movie.

I love your track, it feels like your channelling the great man himself. Til all are one!

Ooh, I like this one. I like the Jan Hammer feel it takes on, later in the song at about 3:10.

I’ve ran laps on my University’s track with this song on repeat all last week. It totally works; it totally rocks!
