Request: The Abyss – Alan Silvestri (Expanded)

I’m aware that the original release is Varese, but was there ever a complete or expanded release for this score? Would appreciate any help.

I never saw this one anywhere unfortunatly… One of cult scores that is missing… The only thing i have is the complete end title in perfect mp3 quality (320 kbps) not included in the official release. I can try to find the time to upload it here if there are enougth interested fans.

I was told that the abyss and t2 score cues were all destroyed in a fire therefore no releases are in existance

There was a rumor flying around (or I could’ve simply mis-read it) at one point that Brad Fiedel has the masters for T2 but can’t release them due to budgetary issues with one of it’s French distributors. Like I said I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure that’s what I’ve read. The Abyss on the other hand exists somewhere and we may even see an expanded version of it at some point. Only time will tell.

I’d love the complete end titles to The Abyss! Though not my first soundtrack, The Abyss was the first CD I ever bought.

I’m working on it, my intention is the special edition and going from there. I have 3 albums with the 5.1 sound extracted, I’ve done track notes and listened to how clean the edits could be and at this early stage, sounds good BUT it won’t be easy … Stay tuned

Eagerly awaiting more news on this with anticipation!

Been a while…any news on the radar?

Now when V label released Die Hard 2 in complete form, I think The Abyss, Predator 2 and other Fox-V labek owned scores will follow in 2013, as they are highly requested

I would certainly hope so.
Thanks for the update.

Still living in hope. C’mon Var�se.

I would love to hear this. Thank you!

Took a missing cue from the DVD’s rear channels. The part where Coffey takes hostages. Contains residual SFX (it’s my first time)

Ordered this along with ‘Star Trek: Nemesis – The Deluxe Edition’ as well as Quartet’s ‘The Beastmaster – Expanded’. Too bad this and Star Trek won’t ship until January 9th – but still happy they are releasing them.

This is awesome news, but still no INTO DARKNESS DE?

Nah, not yet – probably next year if we are lucky…

It’ll probably be the soonest, the summer of 2014.

Well gaaddamn, this is awesome … and there’s room for improvement with the tracks I have

Hmmmmmmmmmmm? (leans forward)

Deluxe edition ordered!

I used to email Varese 3 times a year for the last decade. Glad they listened, and even more pleased to hear others showing their support for such a great release.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm? (leans forward)

Here’s the thing: I look at a new album or something coming soon, I check what I have and I usually something missing … I have something it doesn’t and for this one, I have things it doesn’t so hopefully a complete isloated score with loads of extras can come from this. It’s years late

Very late. I thought Varese would horde this treasure like Smaug for all time. Durin’s day is at hand.

Can’t wait for this ! 🙂

They will ship this week, that doesn’t mean they’ll ship January 6th. Just, ‘the week of January 6th’. So closest we can get ours in the mail, would be around the weekend, or early next week I’d assume..

No shipping confirmation for mine either.

One user said his has shipped.

🙂 doesn’t mean he will share of course.

Of course not…it’s Varese after all.

Just logged into my account and it’s marked as shipped so should be here any day now. 😀

Yes, another user I know said it had shipped yesterday, so they are going out. As for sharing, being Varese means PM, and some members are burnt out on doing that. Maybe it would be better to watch a couple other sites. IF it gets shared with me (it will I am assured) I have permission to share, so I will once I have it up. I will leave a note. Please do not pm me until I announce I am ready as it will do no real good.
