Harold Faltermeyer (born Hans Hugo Harold Faltermeier; named after a US-Colonel stationed in Germany; 5 October 1952) is a German musician, keyboard player, composer and record producer. He is recognized as one of the composers/producers who best captured the zeitgeist of 1980s synthpop in film scores. He is best known for writing and composing the "Axel F" theme for Beverly Hills Cop and the Top Gun Anthem for the film Top Gun. Both works were influential synthpop hits in the 1980s.
During the Summer Solstice of ‘87, a Native American teen boy, Alexander Jones, is abducted by 3 henchmen and held captive in Fort Lauderdale, FL where he's given a very rude awakening. He is then forced to fend for his own life.
