Timerider is an
electronic disco project from Tess (alias Fancy or Manfred Alois Segieth) who
takes his sound into a hardcore instrumental. “Cocoon” uses the logo from the
1985 film and although the composition has no affiliation to the soundtrack
from the film this piece still soars as if we were missing a part of the film.
The sequencers in this production give way to robotic sound that becomes
invigorated with beautiful synthetic strings and horns. It was as if a new
score had been recreated by Manfred for the films purpose. This track may
remind you of the old disco movie soundtrack themes that either Barry White or
Meco would have worked on with this arrangement using more electronic
percussion and drums to pound out the melody. It is one of my favorite
instrumentals from the time.
I have taken the
12” version of “Cocoon” and recreated a new ReStructure Mix using the sequencer
bass synths as a new riff throughout. It is a bit more of a dub version however
the synthesized horns and strings remain intact.
