His synth-heavy compositions for Rocky IV and Transformers: The Movie helped to define the soundscape of a generation, and now for the first time in his career he’ll be creating a totally original song with one of his industry proteges. Kaufman, who grew up on Transformers and listened to ‘Hearts on Fire’ from Rocky IV “so many times that his walkman gave out,” says that this collaboration is a “lifelong dream coming true.” If you’re a music lover, [NUREN] gets more enticing by the minute.
