He is known as the "Transformers Maestro". One of the key highlights of the Transformers Live Action Movie Series is his music. His popularity within the fandom began with Arrival To Earth. His spine-tingling score resonated throughout the Original Trilogy and he's back for the 4th time. He is none other than composer Steve Jablonsky.

The Examiner had the pleasure of interviewing this talented man, for his latest Score is now out (Ender's Game). The site did not forget to ask few questions regarding Transformers Franchise as well.

Let’s touch on “Transformers” for a minute. You composed the music for the original trilogy of films that really showcased you as a terrific action composer and I really do love the original score very much. What exactly happened with your soundtrack releases for the series?

SJ: That's a big question. I'll just say that these huge summer blockbusters are intense and complex. I personally am so focused on completing the score and making the movie as good as I possibly can, sometimes the soundtrack process gets delayed, which is basically what happened with the first "Transformers." But it was a good learning experience, I try now to start thinking about the album as soon as I can.

Do you feel they pretty much took a backseat to what the label was doing with the song albums?

SJ: I don't really have anything to do with the song albums. They are obviously aimed at a much wider audience. Score albums are for film music fans, and hopefully we create new film music fans with each project.

If you had a chance to release the great music for the series the “way” you originally envisioned them, would you do it?

SJ: Many people have asked me this, and I am interested in the idea. There are no plans yet, but I may pursue this in the future.

Of course, “Transformers 4” is coming. Will you be returning to the series?

SJ: Yes. Very much looking forward to it.

Do you have an idea of what you want to do musically with this reboot?

SJ: Not yet. I need to see more and discuss ideas with Michael. He is still shooting but we will be meeting soon.
