Note: this is a mix created from utilizing the 25th anniversary box set album and its bonus cues with the Bluray isolated score to fill in the missing pieces. Those who have "endured", for lack of a better word, the previous complete scores ripped from the DVD and Bluray isolated scores should be aware of its volume fluctuations to complement the images on screen. I pain-stakingly went in and re-mixed the 5.1 isolated score to fix any volume fluctuations that I noticed and seamlessly integrated those cues with the album tracks to create a consistent listening experience. I hope you all enjoy!

Update as of 10/31/13: new link available which includes all compiled bonus material from the original album and Burton/Elfman box set.

Is this the DVD rip or the newly released version from the boxed set?

Both. My own custom rip with a mixture of the isolated score and the box set version. For those who just wanna hear the new album, I've included that as well. It's still incomplete hence a separate rip but with the way I've balanced the new complete score you can't really tell alot of the time what source was used for which segments except for the parts that obviously aren't on the album and plus some of the tracks on the album are extended from the film version which appears to actually be trimmed down so it truly is about as complete as you can get.

Thanks for the box set version.
eeh, thanks for both versions! -)

thanks for the share.

tank you

Thanks a lot, that's my fav' Elfman score !

Fantastic, can't wait to hear your mix... and thanks!

... I guess joint stereo helps to uniform things that way.

I got the isolated score AC3 from the Bluray, and I dont know, is it just me or does it seem a lot quieter than normal?
I've listened to a lot of isolated scores and none of them were so quiet as Beetlejuice.
I had hoped that it would've been in a lossless format being on bluray.
Even though it was @640kbps, it just didn't seem all too great for 640 with it's current volume levels.

The isolated score is the actual film mix. And a lot of times (especially with Burton) the film mix of the score is very uneven in overall volume. A lot of dialing up down to complement what is going on visually (at least in someones opinion)

Hey Spartank, Can you post it (in Flac), here or by PM ? I love that score and I would have great pleasure to fix all the levels issues. Actually I hate what they've done with the box (and I don't have it anyway) and I really feel sticking with the film mixing is the best way. Thanks very much if you do.

... And I'll repost it of course.

I was actually thinking of finding an AC3 cutter that doesn't transcode the files then just post the cut up AC3 files, as is.
FLAC would be pretty pointless for an AC3 source.
Then people can do what they want with them.

But that's on the to-do list.
There's a few other things I'm still working on.

AC3 will do fine (I believe Audacity can read it). Thanks.

Thanks!

That is actually an edited version of Obituaries hence why I left it off. No new music, just trimmed down. And ironically the whore house music in this release came from the boxset. I think they got lazy and ripped it from the isolated score and just fixed it up.

Thank you codyap09!

What does this have that the original soundtrack (the one released before the box set) have?

i have the original disc & always thought it had everything.

There's about 15-20 minutes of score missing from the original album. The boxset version is still sadly incomplete but does offer extended cues that are edited down and suffer from volume fluctuation issues in the isolated score featured on both the DVD and Bluray. Some of the missing music is excusable since it's not all great but the extreme trimming of the wedding sequence on the album is inexcusable. Also, on the album, on the track "The Wedding" (about 22 seconds in) the music is different from what you hear on the isolated score (compare the two and you'll see what I mean). The mixing is slightly but noticeably different and obviously not the film version. Also the album version of "Aftermath" is a COMPLETELY alternate version of the one used in the film. I've included both as bonus tracks on my custom rip. The box set version features a few bonus tracks but on a few they are also only fragments of the complete pieces. It's a shame.

wow lol after all the waiting, officially its still not complete. that is a shame. im not just talking about Beetlejuice. But in general. There's incomplete stuff, remixes but not what we really want u know?

On the particular Beetlejuice subject.....i got the original ost because it had that song....i think its the only lyrical/non classical track. forgot the name (cd somewhere in my attic). i think its heard at the end of the movie or towards the end. Also its funny how the title of the movie is Beetlejuice but his name is spelled differently in the film lol.

Yeah, I'm pretty disappointed in this new Music Box version... What's the length of the ENTIRE score anyway, about 45 minutes long? So they didn't want to release the complete score, fine, but why, for example, truncate cues that are already under 45 seconds in length to begin with?

Also, I was actually shocked to find that the same screwed up track markers from the original CD release were still firmly in place! Really? That aspect needed to be remastered, restored and duplicated on this release? Maybe it wasn't a true remastering after-all?

It is still a fun score

Tim Burton has gone on record to say that they changed the spelling of the name because it would repel an audience since they wouldn't know how to pronounce it.

Absolutely, it'll always be a favorite and I'm not trying to complain. It just didn't expand on anything or improve it like say, Alice in Wonderland etc... so I was really underwhelmed after being so initially hyped.

Can anyone upload this please?

Your better off just listening to the Elfman/Burton 25th Anniv. Box Set version.

You should ask it there: Thread 113650
The author of the thread said he has the Isolated DVD Score of Beetlejuice in FLAC.

How so? It's far from complete (relatively). At least the DVD Isolated Score track gives a clean, complete representation.

Life is never complete, so you want complete with inferior sound just so that you can thump your chest and say I have a "complete" score, that's your call.

DVD isolated scores are seldom very satisfying in the long run in my humble opinion, I have been listening to isolated scores from LaserDisc and DVD for years and very few have caught my fancy.

On Burton films (and a lot of other films as well) you'd be right about the isolated scores seldom being satisfying but if it's the only way to have your favorite cues that they left off of the album I mean you've gotta cut corners somewhere. With my rip, I knew right from the get-go that the wedding scene was going to be a combo of the Bluray isolated score and the box set album and I had my doubts at first but in the end you'd be hard pressed to tell the two sources apart since I went in and messed with the individual channel's levels to create as consistent listening experience as possible and I also evened out the stereo field since sometimes music in the left channel was mixed too low to complement the right channel's sound. Luckily the box set version was just incomplete by a few minutes so I didn't need to utilize the isolated score too much. I'll work on getting it re-tagged and re-uploaded tomorrow.

Wow dude, I was just making conversation... You know, on a board for discussion that's what ya do. :) No need for insults of "chest thumping"! Was merely asking for your reasoning and perspective. And I certainly never said that I thought anything less than complete was inferior or anything.

tee hee

Now look who's overreacting!!! lol

I am still looking at my post to locate the "insult" I hurled at you, I have a team working on it and when I find it, I will address it.

New link up!

At least you admitted you overreacted first :D. Look, maybe insult wasn't the right word, but you did assume something negative about me for no reason other than I asked a question and made a comment. Jeeez I really miss the days when you could have civil conversation/discussion on a message board.

That must have been before I joined.

Bravo! I enjoy your mixing.

Thank you!!

Thread 163874

Oh, it seems to be working. Thanks!! PS- This makes me look like a fool, but I was so desperate to get the soundtrack I messed up and did not check the URL carefully. The OP's piano site - pianofiles.com has banner ads and one of those has a green button, easily avoided if you know better, and I should have but mistook it for the download button on a site that I guess has no option to download? Anyway, it leads to mediakegs.com which is a total scam and gives you a "Free" trial you have to pay to cancel. My stupid, but others should be warned. What's the point of pianofiles.com? It doesn't show notation or have download links or anything... but others should be warned about the banner ad there. Don't fall for it. Thanks again for the new link!

Does anyone still have this?

Plus 1.

Found it somewhere here in my computer. I'll post a re-up link in a few minutes for those who want it.
