I have an old Fender Rhodes keyboard, the keys are nearly broken by now. But just about all of those early tracks with David were composed on it. He came to my office and the first thing we wrote was ‘Laura Palmer’s Theme.’ Whenever we started something, I would always tell David, just write me lyrics. You never have to write me a complete lyric, but give me a title, maybe one or two lines, and that’s enough for me to compose a piece of music. So David would sit next to me at the keyboard. If he had an idea or a project in mind, like in the case of Twin Peaks, he would talk about the possibility of music in very simple terms. For ‘Laura Palmer’s Theme,’ he described a lonely girl coming from out in the woods, and the sycamore trees calmly blowing in the wind, and then make me start on a melody. He would always speak very softly in my ear, and I would play something the whole time while he was speaking. Oh, Angelo, we’re in the dark woods, that’s good, that’s good. Play it slower. De-da-de-da-de-da. Play it slower, okay. Angelo, yeah, that’s good, you slowed up, but play it slower. I would say, ‘David, how much slower can I play it?’ ‘Play it slower!’
As a side-note, the drummer, Grady Tate, who was in our sessions for most of the Twin Peaks stuff, would joke they I played on two tempos: slow and reverse, which is so true. Anyway, David kept talking in my ear to create the music for Laura. Keep it going, keep it going, keep it going. A beautiful teenage girl is coming, she’s very lonely, she’s got tears in her eyes, and she’s in trouble. So I changed it from that woods theme and segued it into another major key, and it flowed out and I started on a unifying theme. As David heard the music and the theme, he kept talking to me, that theme’s beautiful, let the theme build slowly, keep it going, she’s coming closer and closer to the camera. I kept playing the same notes. She’s getting close, you can see her face, Angelo, she’s in pain, reach a climax. Now come back slowly, take it back and come on down slowly. That’s the ticket! I went down slowly and came back into the dark woods. That was it.
David has the cassettes in his vault of what exactly happened. I remember after that, he was in tears, he thought it was so beautiful. He said to me, ‘Angelo, you caught the whole mood of Twin Peaks.’ Before he even shot anything! I said, ‘Well, David, I’m going to go home and work on it.’ He said, Angelo, don’t touch a note, you better not touch a single note. And I didn’t. I improvised every note of the song just by him talking to me. ‘Laura Palmer’s Theme’ is probably the most famous theme of the whole show. When you hear it, everybody knows it. It perfectly covers the darkness of the show.
