| 解説 | The Speed of Heat is a musical depiction of the adventures of a fighter pilot， specifically an F-22 Raptor pilot. Rambunctious and daredevilish in nature， this work takes the listener through a series of events which are all based on fighter pilot ”slang”. Even the title is pilot slang for Warp One， or very， very fast. The opening is ”The F-22 Raptor” itself and from there we go on an adventure in musical sections as follows: Meas. 39 - ”Fangs Out” - When a pilot is hot for a dogfight. Meas. 52 - ”Let’s Dance” - Targets are sighted and we are in active pursuit. Meas. 115 - ”Padlocked” & ”Beaded Up” - ”Padlocked” - To have a Bogey firmly in your sights. ”Beaded Up” - Worried or excited Meas. 148 - ”Heater Shpanked” & ”Flashbacks” - ”Heater” is a heat-seeking missile. ”Shpanked” is soundly getting defeated in a dogfight. ”Flashbacks” is the musical description of the pilot seeing his life flash in front of him in slow motion. Meas. 168 - ”NFOD” & ”Punch Out” - ”NFOD” - No Fear Of Death. ”Punch Out” - eject. Meas. 211 - Back in a ”Zoombag” - After a near death experience， the pilot gets back into his ”flight suit.” Meas. 229 - ”The Speed of Heat” - Let’s just see how fast we can go. Meas. 294 - ”Breaking the Sound Barrier” - in this section the brass represent the sound barrier and the woodwinds depict the Raptor. Meas. 304 to the end - ”GAP” - Gauges all pinged (at max). |
