Die Hard: Rest Now! Motion Picture Soundtrack is a compilation produced by electronic music label Rest Now!, as an attempt to re-score the original soundtrack by Michael Kamen. The result is a 21-tracks release made by various artists that contributed to the creation of a brand new soundscape for the 1988 masterpiece by John McTiernan.
Listen to the compilation
LA. 1988. Christmas Holidays. There’s a big party at the Nakatomi Plaza, the sumptuous sanctuary of a Japanese corporation in Downtown LA. Determined to crash the party are the charming East-German terrorist Hans Gruber and his crew of thugs, who set their eyes on looting the rich vault of the Nakatomi after taking hostage all the party’s guests.
Little did they know that one of the guests is married to NYPD detective John McLane (Bruce Willis), poised to thwart the terrorist plot from the moment he steps into the Corporation’s premises. Nonetheless, McLane will have to rely more on his wits than on brute force to get out of his predicament as Hans Gruber is firstly an intellectual. The cultural superiority exuding from Hans Gruber in his first encounter with McLane, whose portrayal as a crude cowboy sets the tone for the climactic catchphrase “Yippee ki-yay, motherfucker!” The presence of a Japanese multinational on American soil in the 80’s is also a clear symptom of the forthcoming Asian economic greatness. This confers too the movie the credibility of a screenplay informed by the knowledge of contemporary global developments. It is this thorough attention to detail that makes the movie such a masterpiece.
