That's gorgeous! :D

Wait... what's that cue "Queen to Bishop 6"? An excerpt from James Horner's Aliens score?

Haha funny!

Haha funny!

But no one got my "Dick Reckard is a Duplicant",..................?

I'm wasted on here.

Let me shine people,...!!!!!!!!!!!

For that,....!! I'm gonna spoil the movie for you.

That's right !!

Jerd leto,...or whatever his name is.....Yeah !!? He's BLIND.

THAT'S RIGHT....HE CAN'T SEE.

His EYES.....Yeah !! They DON'T WORK.

I know...I'm a bastard. Ha ha haaaaa

Haha funny!

I was serious, actually! :D
I've got no clue what that might be... is it Vangelis' music?

I was serious, actually! :D

Yes. It references the line of dialogue when Sebastian and Roy are in the elevator trying to get up to Tyrell's apartment. "Queen to Bishop 6" is the chess move Roy tells Sebastian in order to check mate Tyrell. This is the music playing behind that.

OH! =-O Only now I realize that!

You know, my native language is Italian. I saw the film only in Italian and here we use another name for the chess piece. The word used in Italy is "Alfiere" which means "Ensign", which is a military rank.
Curious!

Only now I realize that the name of the cue in "Aliens" is a pun... :laugh::laugh::laugh:

:doc:

I suspected something was lost in translation. That's very interesting, though. I understand the confusion now. :)

I figured that out from the trailer. But it is from the anime trailer that I got to fully translate some of the bits that needed more understanding!

Its all in the small print.

Well, I've seen the movie and slept on it....and still about 4 or 5 things I'm vague on....Which I can't speak of [obviously]. Will need further viewings...by the dozen. But at �20 an IMAX pop here, I'll wait for the 4K Blu ray Steelbook. heh ! I won't see a movie like this without the IMAXing.

Definitely an amazing movie though...

Totally love it.
This is how for me it should have been the score for 2049 (note: I haven't yet watched the film, so I cannot tell if it would have worked on it).
My impression is that the composers didn't have the permission to use any of Vangelis' themes (in fact the only one used is the "Tears in Rain" cue).

I can honestly say......2049 will only "improve with age". A day later, I can't stop thinking about it. I can't !!

There's so much covered....almost feels like four movies in one.

I will say, now that I watched the "animated short" that was released,[ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrZk9sSgRyQ ] ...if you don't know ALL about Blade Runner, the Black-Out is something to know beforehand before going in, that will help with the feel of this movie.Why certain things expected ain't presented. Just if you don't know ....!

I know....I forgot my place on a Scores forum. lol.

I'd say the Zimmer/Wallfisch music..... Takes you there....and is.....fitting.It's a different Time in a slightly different World.
But,...*with nostaligia etc,.... I don't think any music could be applied to film [pre-digi] like Vangelis was for the Original.
That was Lightning in a bottle.....! And we've had decades to soak it all up.

Hi all,

Thanks to DC, who has shared with me numerous sources I didn't have, I am (after two years) putting the final touches on a compilation of the Blade Runner music as it was used in the film -- every single cue, edited or crossfaded as necessary, using the Director's Cut as my reference. I've discovered a great many interesting details as well as errors in previous boots, sometimes involving simple mislabeling of cues, and other times involving tracks running at the wrong pitch/speed. For instance, the track labeled on many boots as "Roy Enters the Bradbury" is actually the last half of the cue I'm calling "Show Me What You're Made Of." The music corresponding to "Roy Enters the Bradbury" in the film is almost identical to the earlier cue, "Pris Meets J.F. Sebastian," with some small differences.

Where no title has existed previously for a cue, I have used a line of dialogue from the scene as the title.

I will include all my findings and sources in notes accompanying the set.

In addition to the film versions of the music, I will include a bonus folder of unedited compositions, from which the film cues were created.

This is outstanding! Do you plan to do more of the score?

Having seen 2049 earlier today, I think the score is mostly just there without adding much, except for the loud blasts of what almost sounds like a motorcycle revving up, which I assume are Hans Zimmer's contribution. The third time that sound appeared, I leaned over to my girlfriend and said, "I hate that sound." Loud and grating. There was no need to duplicate the Vangelis score, of course, but they could have used more of the depth and texture he brought to the original film. What @marcorea1 has done with the textures of Vangelis' work would have been a welcome kind of updated style for the new film.

The movie itself, visually, is beautiful. I won't discuss the story here, but it's worth seeing on the big screen.

After much talk about the Blade Runner Game I went routing in various cupboards at home and actually found my original game cdroms and strategy guide. So I then pulled out all my paraphernalia I collected over the years. Ta Dah!

Interesting thoughts about the score. When I'll see the movie, I'll discover that.
As for the plot, I've got my own theory that I hope will be realized... that this film will join the Blade Runner and Alien universes.
Alien: Covenant, with all its awfulness, was already teasing so much this connection, many scenes (including the very first frame) are heavily inspired by the original Blade Runner. And in both films there's Ridley Scott involved and the same screenwriter... So maybe...
Who knows :)
I just have to go watch the film.

You have not the sealed DVD "Tin" Every-Cut Edition ?? I do. : ) That's about only thing we differ on. I just ordered the 4K Edition. Apparently it is BEST 4Ker of a Classic movie,....I heard.

Oooh I dunno about shared universe for this.... I'm ok with that stuff for most other....stuff. But, I always like to think this is just it's own thing. I think when it all get's to be....being overly clever for sake of being overly clever....kinda dilutes and cheapens stuff. [Ridley, I'm looking at you, you....you with your Dick Reckard is a Duplicant !!!! Stop being OVERLY SMUGLY CLEVER AFTER THE FACT. No one is impressed and it's not big and it's not clever, or overly clever....it's IRRITATING.]

I will also add....New Nexus' lack the poetry of the "Old 6's". But they aren't meant to....So,.....!

I'm really glad that Ridley's only involvement was as a producer, Covenant was utter drivel.
I hate the idea of trying to tie the two franchises together.

Yeah,...!! I don't mind ALIEN+PREDATOR....Or even TERMINATOR+ROBOCOP..... But leave the Runners alone in their [lit by Roger Deakins] corner of things.

Totally agreed !

Saw the Blade Runner 2049 movie yesterday... Well in my point of view not good not bad.

Concerning the Blade Runner 2049 music, i felt nothing while i was watching the movie...No emotional themes, no great main titles theme, only things i can remember is some big synths and big drum bass.
The music really does not deserve the movie and does not enhance the visual and emotional aspect of the film !!!

Oh my, I am getting a bit lost in all these different verslons of score...I just saw The Final Cut of the original movie. Which score release is the most complete, without sfx and in the right order to accompany this great movie?

I'm not sure if there is a version yet to fit your criteria, however I think SlvrHmrm is currently on the case for just such a version. (see his earlier post)

YES, this is a VERY good question considering all this malarkey about Photoshop covers and fan made (always) versions with sound from the film. WE DON'T WANT THE SCORE WITH SOUND FROM THE FILM.... otherwise we would just watch the damn movie.

Cover Art Piccy for the no doubt expandable Zimmer & Co score to come.....

I'd say we should all wait for the guy who goes under the SlvrHmrm moniker to finish off what I can only describe as complete and accurate as the soundtrack might ever get.
Samples of what you will be hearing are quite promising so let's give the guy the needed space and time to make it as better as it can get! ;)

Hold on everybody... that's my girlfriend on the bottom corner...

I didn't know ANY of these women before the movie, don't own a "T.V."...!!

But damn,..."Joi" has has some fine lines and trunk space. And "Love" is fiesty & kicky & splode-y.....and Lt. Joshi got that Cougar thing going on....I really did not expect such Hunnies in this movie to be doing such pouty sexy stuff. When I saw the casting, I just thought, ok they gonna stay on safe ground and just have more skinjobs on the run and k has to mow them all down in cool fraught ways....That is what I thought THIS movie was all gonna be. Playing it SAFE.

But,... o_O

And just now.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iaHl8M_TyUc

It's true....the FanBoy thing just creeps up on you....you like a movie, you learn to love the movie, you begin to buy "rarities" just in passing...then find it begins to give you more "feels" than reality itself... Suddenly one day after you realise you bring your game to comicon in your most bespoke outfit....and...you've named your kids after your favourite characters.... you may be ....a Fanboy.

I'm Mr. Butts...and I am...a ....Fanboy. I confess. And I did like 2049 very much. I think it got the balance of everything just right.I'm just happy there's so much of it. :)

I just found time to listen to your Ultra Edition on my way to the office and backfor the first time, and I have to say it's really awsome. I'm familiar with most of the music and I find it quite fresh to hear all these bits and pieces of new sounds.
I can only speak for myself, but I think they fit in, don't they? In any case, you must have spent a hell lot of time for mixing these sound all together and for that I want to thank you !

For me I really would love to have the timestamps of the tracks so I can more easily seperate the different sources. The annotations to the tracks are very helpful but the timestamps would do the trick... so pleeeeease?

*Two thumbs up*

*Two thumbs up*

I was gonna mention those.....which you have called time stamps.....{'cos I tried a cue spitter-ry thingy...and it didn't do what it usually does...So music is in Big Chunk} Now usually I like Chunky things....Asses,Nipples n' such....but,...some things slightly less.

Sometimes I'm kind of complicated ... with timestamps I actually ment the length for each song :-) sry... but the correct translation didn't came to my mind...

I just found time to listen to your Ultra Edition on my way to the office and backfor the first time, and I have to say it's really awsome. I'm familiar with most of the music and I find it quite fresh to hear all these bits and pieces of new sounds.
I can only speak for myself, but I think they fit in, don't they? In any case, you must have spent a hell lot of time for mixing these sound all together and for that I want to thank you !

For me I really would love to have the timestamps of the tracks so I can more easily seperate the different sources. The annotations to the tracks are very helpful but the timestamps would do the trick... so pleeeeease?

*Two thumbs up*

Hey Thanks,
I am so glad you think so! I listen to the mix almost every day. It's strange I made this mix in a way I like, but thought no one else would. But I am really pleased now that I have shared it. I will see about getting the track lengths for you. I don't know how to split tracks up myself.
Auf Wiedersehen :)

When I got the time of the tracks, I will do this for you if you like...

I have no real idea of the techy stuff you're both talking about.....but...split between the track bits. :)

Think of me more of a "Leon", than a "Roy".

{*We all already do, Mr. Butts. Said everyone on the forum.}

aww

@dadadacicici please clean out your message folder so I can send you the mp3s of the rough mix :)

When I got the time of the tracks, I will do this for you if you like...

You would? Oh great! Thanks.

Hi all,

Thanks to DC, who has shared with me numerous sources I didn't have, I am (after two years) putting the final touches on a compilation of the Blade Runner music as it was used in the film -- every single cue, edited or crossfaded as necessary, using the Director's Cut as my reference. I've discovered a great many interesting details as well as errors in previous boots, sometimes involving simple mislabeling of cues, and other times involving tracks running at the wrong pitch/speed. For instance, the track labeled on many boots as "Roy Enters the Bradbury" is actually the last half of the cue I'm calling "Show Me What You're Made Of." The music corresponding to "Roy Enters the Bradbury" in the film is almost identical to the earlier cue, "Pris Meets J.F. Sebastian," with some small differences.

Where no title has existed previously for a cue, I have used a line of dialogue from the scene as the title.

I will include all my findings and sources in notes accompanying the set.

In addition to the film versions of the music, I will include a bonus folder of unedited compositions, from which the film cues were created.

Hi All,
I put together another mix, you may have heard some of this material before here and there, and if sound fx and dialogue is not you bag then this might not be the mix for you. Personally I love the mix like this. In some cases I added my own sound FX to allow me to add different music cues to well known scenes. This took many months work. So this is not just a recording of the movies music cues. The majority of music tracks were 16 bit Flac files. I haven't got around to art work yet, please share comment and enjoy.
Encoded @320kps (Flac Version is also available)

If I'm dumb enough to get Whiskey Drunk, listening to Blade Runner Blues....I can lift anything.

But then I get tired real quick and need to hit the sack.

You can't make Alien 2 unless you're going to make it a Vietnam film without a Jerry Goldsmith score. Neither then why did they think they could make a Blade Runner 2 without a Vangelis score. What a dreadful film. Please Hollywood don't make a 2nd E.T film or close encounters 2. Empire strikes back was the only second film to hit the mark as far as second films go and at least John Williams and the director did better job than the first one. Sequel makers should study The Empire Strikes Back to degree level to know what really makes a good sequel. Anyhow I'm jumping off my high horse now. Not a unicorn thank god ! :)

Really....?

I liked it. After DECADES of wondering IF & WHEN & HOW....I was just happy to see....stuff from that World. Like the Original....some "moments" ain't Masterpieces, but other's are. I'm one for letting the Orignal play on loop all day and just "catching moments" of it...

Gonna let this new one play on loop as well....Not all Platinum,....some Gold....a sprinkle of Silver here and there, but I liked it. [Music was ALWAYS going to be....LESS. They ain't done good movies scores SINCE the 1980's !!. Am I wrong...? All the greats are leaving us now. I can't think of anything passed....Wojciech Kilar'S DRACULA score 1992 that's tongued my ear balls]. Being honest.

Last time I heard Zimmer's stuff and thought..."Uhmm,...ok,...." was BLACK HAWK DOWN. 15 YEARS AGO.

And....that 25th Anniversary Vangelis 3 CD thing.....He wasn't smoking the same stuff. I liked it, but, it wasn't 100% Blade Runner. Close but no cigar.
It was Lightning in a bottle first time around.

There,...I said it. You thought it, but, I said it. [lol]

But, each to their own. I think you just need more time....let is sink in....
Did you rave INSTANTLY over the Original...?

I think you'll like the compilation I'm making with all the cues as used in the film. There are a few seconds of sound effects here and there, just because I couldn't remove everything, but it's almost entirely the music.

As for the score of the new film vs the original...I've listened to Vangelis's original music many many many times recently, with careful attention to how various cues were constructed, so that I could duplicate the editing and cross fading. Something I've noticed is that there is definitely a structure of sorts, with echoes of certain themes giving subtle callbacks to earlier parts of the film. The construction of the music cues for the film's climax, for instance, was done with specific effects in mind. We've only ever had the full length "Wounded Animals" on bootleg to represent that section of the film, but it's not accurate to the film at all. Some of the cues are indeed drawn from "Wounded Animals," but in short sections, alternated with other pieces of music.

I say this because watching 2049, as much as I was entertained, I didn't get a sense that the music was done in such a way as to strengthen the structure of the visual narrative. Some attractive (and not so attractive) sounds, yes, but I didn't get the sense of a parallel structure. Maybe it's just a different kind of score, and maybe I'll take a closer look one day.

Looking forward to this!

I didn't just like Blade Runner. I love it. It was a life changer. I know that might sound really sad but I was there when it was first released in the cinema. I saw some people walk out within the first half hour but thinking about it now that was probably the rotten tomatoes gang :) I forgive Vangelis now for not scoring the new film. He was right. He stuck to his non commercial guns all along...

But you gotta ask how they could have possibly IMPROVED on the Original....? They couldn't have. Not only was it a certain type of Future back then...it's a Future today that would really translate.It's like we're too savvy to tech now. I know I am sick of tech "now". Original was of it's time. Had a bit of mystery to it.

It's like we can watch Laurel & Hardy and laugh....it's of it's time. Get someone to do that "Now", we'd think they were "f*cking retards".

I'm pleased just to have seen more of it....At least it's opened the door after 30 years. At least. I woulda paid money to see a static camera set up on a street corner,in front of the "Future L.A." Just passersby passing by....I would a PAID MONEY just for nearly 3 hours of that.That feel. Heh !

Yesssir...
That will do it, just give me a day - and then I will send you a PM.

I have mixed feelings about the 2049 incarnation the Blade Runner world.

While I could relate to the 2019 dystopian future I just could not feel the same 30 years after.
Too polished and clean. Surely the 2022 black out must have been doing something to the city views and what we are seeing in 2049 is what it has naturally decayed in 30 years from 2019.
I was expecting a better police department for example, where anyone can enter so easily. A more believing 2048 magistrate court.
It looks like a small world with a glimpse of different smaller worlds that are the actors.
The 2019 did not give me this. It had worlds inside worlds. Like life itself.

It is more of a standard future-to-be rather than a dystopian future.
There is an even more philosophical twist to 2049 new models.
It would have needed double its duration to satisfyingly explore all of the hints and clues presented through the movie.
There are things that happen too fast.
I would love an extra cut to underline that, but director has already stated that this is his director's cut.

The atmosphere of the whole movie is oppressing and does not show the noir light present in the original.
It is there, but in a different shade. Omni present grey more than black.
I am missing Scott's maniacally planned details behind every other shot.
All shots are majestic here, but there's a more philosophic angle to them.
I did see less in 2019 but could imagine way more behind it.
Now I could see more but I wish I could have been left wandering a bit more.

I also could see lot of K. W. Jeter in 2049. He got there before 2049 in his book sequels. Most likely Hampton Fancher got there in the same way unconsciously.
Also Surrogates by Robert Venditti & Brett Weldele was there before.

The whole place does not feel like L.A. at all. It feels like any other east european city and that's fine.

While I could empathize with the 2019 characters I cannot say the same this time.
Captain Bryant was credible, Lieutenant Joshi a bit less in showing her emotions. She does imply more than how she got to the point of doing so.
I would have loved the latter as the option.
Luv does not have any soul while Roy did have plenty of that. I just cannot feel much for her or Wallace. I did feel Roy and Tyrell back in 2019.

2049 is a damn good sci-fi movie and I am trying to compare a Picasso with a Van Gogh perhaps.
Both are good in their respect. But one is still hanging on the wall...

I found the music being too predominant and washing me away from the natural/dystopian atmosphere I needed to feel.
It does sound pretty good in a quite Vangelis style in places.
I heard they also used the same Vangelis synth...
The only drawback I am somehow experiencing is that the whole soundtrack is 2D compared to the 3D style of Vangelis... a bit too digital and clean... but I grew up in the past and this is the future maybe...

Last section of the movie I had to wear earplugs both when viewing the cam version and the real deal in the cinema.

I did watch it three times eventually and I still cannot change my idea.

Sorry to disappoint lot of you, but that's how I feel about that.
And I knew that before hand somehow.
Still it is a damn good movie and deserve the attention it has grabbed so far.

Having said that: I damn liked it! :)

I think that what he's asking for is a CUE sheet to go with the single FLAC file. That way, if it were burned back to CD (or not) you have a continuous listening experience, but separate tracks (as opposed to the single file image).

Ah yes, thanks whoop, couldn't remember the correct term. I have no clue about how to do any of this type of thing. I think I remember trying to use cuesplitter but couldn't make head nor tail of it

I still got it in a Big Chunk, but after 2 days listening....Quite the prize. Very very good indeed.

Only stop to carry on listening to the "new" stuff of 2049.....and can say 2049 is like....vague echoes of the original "feeels". Like....that that 30 years has passed from the old one..... I think that is what they were going for. And that is the only way any of it works, to me.

:)

Hey Thanks for that SeymoreButts glad u liked it! If gmxfcks gets time to spit up my file I will reup in the new format.

Ohh a split track would be nice! However, I like it this way for now, because it feels as if it's almost a Blade Runner suite.

Agreed,...but I would like to be able to "go back a bit" and listen to a "certain bit". We're already bloody Spoiled with this....and still we complain. Someone slap my face.

Agreed,...but I would like to be able to "go back a bit" and listen to a "certain bit". We're already bloody Spoiled with this....and still we complain. Someone slap my face.

lol

LOL :)

I have mixed feelings about the 2049 incarnation the Blade Runner world.

Sorry to disappoint lot of you, but that's how I feel about that.
And I knew that before hand somehow.
Still it is a damn good movie and deserve the attention it has grabbed so far.

Having said that: I damn liked it! :)

It should not have been made, an opinion I had years ago when it was first suggested. No matter how it looks
or is an improved detective story, it sullied the original film that I hold dear since I first saw it in theaters
back in 1982 (flaws included). This new film was overly long- filled with so much cleverness from the writers-
yet was not the finely detailed amazement of 1982. And seeing Rachel again... that beauty also sullied for shock value.
Not good... and forget the music that was more of an assault on my ears than emotionally moving.

... not to mention that they might be planning another sequel: Blade Runner 2054 - The replicants strike back at this point!


When asked for his thoughts about the sequel, Rutger Hauer, [who played Roy Batty in Blade Runner (1982)], stated that that he was completely indifferent to it. He saw no reason why the makers would go back to something which he thought was already perfect, but admitted that it could be considered a complement.

There are no such plans. Enough is enough. One of the original producers was against a sequel, reportedly, finding the 82 film to be 'precious'. But he died,
clearing the way for... a big money maker? Don't anyone fool themselves, Hollywood doesn't move unless they see a possible buck in the future. The film SERENITY
was based on a short lived- albeit excellent- TV show.... and that was very, very lucky to progress to the big screen. A great pity it was marketed, for the most part,
to the TV show fan base... and when you cater to a small fan base... you get Blade Runner 2049.

It's also too bad that Serenity sucked.

Hi All,
Okay here it is, the Ultra Edition now split up into Flac tracks for your listening convenience. (also split up Mp3 version) Again my thanks to JacKc for the great art work, and special thanks to gmxfcks for his time and help splitting the tracks. The track list file now includes time indexes and artists for each track. I have also included sleeve notes with info on the track sources and edits. For a mix I was planning on keeping to myself I am very happy with the favorable feedback and delighted to share with you guys.
Enjoy my Blade Runner brethren!

Valid points.

I think it was a nobel effort.

Compared to anything much else these days....! I used to go cinema 30 a year in the 80's into the 90's, I barely go TWICE a year now. I think this was worth my money.

I didn't feel it was as money grabby as 90% of what I hear about being made, these days. I don't even have a "next movie" I want to pay money to see...!

Most have you have probably already seen this but here's a new short documentary on the original Vangelis Blade Runner score and its magic ! https://youtu.be/oItdeX63B7U

i didnt like the new movie, unnecessary sequel to a perfect movie. and definitely not a masterpiece

Have there been any Masterpieces since the 1980's ??.

To me that was the final decade of the Pioneers....everything else since has been something we already saw before. Certainly not infinite pool of ideas.Finite in the extreme.

Yes, there are have been masterful films since the 80s. One that jumps immediately to my mind is THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON.... a simply lovely film with an
equally lovely score. Another visual masterpiece (and bomb in the box office) was SNOW FALLING ON CEDARS, uniquely filmed and with a stunning, beautifully woven score by James Newton
Howard. CLOUD ATLAS, ARRIVAL were both masterful pieces of cinema... the former suffering from critics who could not 'follow it'.... the later suffering from audiences who could not 'follow it'.

There is nothing wrong with a film that challenges the viewer... that requires multiple viewings (especially today when the theaters have the volume cranked so high that your teeth
crack and you can't hear the dialogue properly).

The famed producer, director, writer Joseph L. Mankiewicz worried that Hollywood would some day turn into 'car crashes and noise', seeing that his films were based on solid dialogue and character
(All About Eve, Ghost and Mrs. Muir, Letter To Three Wives).... and behold.... as Roger Ebert once said (I paraphrase here) 'just because the special effects team can DO something, there is
no reason to create a film around it.'

Days have gone by since watching Blade Runner 2049... and I lament for many reasons having done so. It is my opinion. It does NOT have to be anyone else's opinion. There are things
to enjoy in this new film, I admit, but there are other things that, let us say, rubbed my gentle nature the wrong way.... and especially cast a pall over my cherished memory of that
visually resplendent, musically magical, flawed masterpiece that knocked my socks off back in 1982.

If the Golden age ended late 50s-early 60s and the silver age was approximately to the end of the 80s/early 90s, I think it's safe describe the current era of film from the 90s to present as "The Plastic Age"

There have been some brilliant films since the silver age but overall it has been about retreading or repackaging old styles and franchises. Most of the really good stuff coming out now is smaller scale productions, and maybe it shows with ticket sales for big productions in decline--audiences are wising up and don't necessarily want to see a kajillion superhero epics a year or shit like Universal Monsters reimagined for the CGI age. The age of really great blockbusters that balanced marketing and emphasis on crafting good cinema is over, in my opinion, and it has tilted toward mass marketed, formulaic, "safe" films and away from riskier, more adventurous choices. Maybe the occasional masterpiece blockbuster will slip through, but as an exception, usually. Even the "classic" franchises like Star Wars are at this point just retreading old themes and imagery to cash in on nostalgia for the 70s and 80s. Irony in Star Wars is that the original was very risky and many insiders predicted it would fail in '77, yet now it has become one of many formulas that is copied with little originality or deviation these days. Lucas deviated a bit from said formula for episode I and audiences and critics have never forgiven him for not simply replicating the original trilogy they loved.

As for Bladerunner 2049's poor box office, it's no surprise to me. IIRC the original film was not a huge blockbuster and its reputation was built over the years on its status as a cult classic, not its ticket sales in 1982. It was always more a "niche" film than it was a crowd pleaser--a great film that stays with a viewer long after the credits roll, but not necessarily something you take the kids or your first date to see; no surprise 2049 is not getting bigger ticket sales either.

I have mixed feelings about the 2049 incarnation the Blade Runner world.

While I could relate to the 2019 dystopian future I just could not feel the same 30 years after.
Too polished and clean. Surely the 2022 black out must have been doing something to the city views and what we are seeing in 2049 is what it has naturally decayed in 30 years from 2019.
I was expecting a better police department for example, where anyone can enter so easily. A more believing 2048 magistrate court.
It looks like a small world with a glimpse of different smaller worlds that are the actors.
The 2019 did not give me this. It had worlds inside worlds. Like life itself.

It is more of a standard future-to-be rather than a dystopian future.
There is an even more philosophical twist to 2049 new models.
It would have needed double its duration to satisfyingly explore all of the hints and clues presented through the movie.
There are things that happen too fast.
I would love an extra cut to underline that, but director has already stated that this is his director's cut.

The atmosphere of the whole movie is oppressing and does not show the noir light present in the original.
It is there, but in a different shade. Omni present grey more than black.
I am missing Scott's maniacally planned details behind every other shot.
All shots are majestic here, but there's a more philosophic angle to them.
I did see less in 2019 but could imagine way more behind it.
Now I could see more but I wish I could have been left wandering a bit more.

I also could see lot of K. W. Jeter in 2049. He got there before 2049 in his book sequels. Most likely Hampton Fancher got there in the same way unconsciously.
Also Surrogates by Robert Venditti & Brett Weldele was there before.

The whole place does not feel like L.A. at all. It feels like any other east european city and that's fine.

While I could empathize with the 2019 characters I cannot say the same this time.
Captain Bryant was credible, Lieutenant Joshi a bit less in showing her emotions. She does imply more than how she got to the point of doing so.
I would have loved the latter as the option.
Luv does not have any soul while Roy did have plenty of that. I just cannot feel much for her or Wallace. I did feel Roy and Tyrell back in 2019.

2049 is a damn good sci-fi movie and I am trying to compare a Picasso with a Van Gogh perhaps.
Both are good in their respect. But one is still hanging on the wall...

I found the music being too predominant and washing me away from the natural/dystopian atmosphere I needed to feel.
It does sound pretty good in a quite Vangelis style in places.
I heard they also used the same Vangelis synth...
The only drawback I am somehow experiencing is that the whole soundtrack is 2D compared to the 3D style of Vangelis... a bit too digital and clean... but I grew up in the past and this is the future maybe...

Last section of the movie I had to wear earplugs both when viewing the cam version and the real deal in the cinema.

I did watch it three times eventually and I still cannot change my idea.

Sorry to disappoint lot of you, but that's how I feel about that.
And I knew that before hand somehow.
Still it is a damn good movie and deserve the attention it has grabbed so far.

Having said that: I damn liked it! :)

Bang on with your review, DC!

What I found intriguing was not the replicants but Joi the Holographic sentient being. I found that she had more of a soul than Wallace or his replicants. I could feel for her like I did for Batty, Rachel, or Tyrell. As for the music, I found it loud, and that is something since my kids say I am deaf as I play music too loud for their liking. I was hoping for more quieter "Vangelis" moments with regards to the music. The soundtrack is very good, however, I know nothing would ever come close to the level of the original soundtrack, unless it was Vangelis himself. The movie overall left me with that "Uncertainty" feeling, and that is good thing! Even thou it was 163min run time, the pacing was great as it seamed to fly by and the credits rolled with me wanting more. Before I went to see 2049, I watched BR(Final Cut) and every time I watch it there is always something I see that is "new" because Scott has so many layers upon layers of set and feeling packed into it. I don't think I will be able to say the same for 2049? . . . ?

As for another sequel, it would only happen if this one is a blockbuster and checking Mojo it is only at 61M domestic(156M worldwide) with a budget of 150M. So if it can have some legs and continue at the box office . . . who knows? It's only been out for 11 days now with releases yet to come in some overseas countries.

2017 is arguably very anti-female as well

To me....the 1980's was the Perfect Time / Perfect Mesh of Talent {In front & behind camera}, Technological Film making and ENTHUSIASM.

I've not known another time like it since then.

2049 was never going to be a Win....as a "Movie",....but a noble effort win for just....spreading out what we knew of,already. That's how it felt to me. Not as something to be judge as...this has to be as ground breaking as the first. There can be only one first.

I still like it.

ok I wondered about the "Horse". Maybe some edits can be made but other than that...I just know I'm gonna delve into it much more at my leisure in times to come.

I do agree with you on the Joy character. What I still could not get after "escorting" some friends to watch 2049 is why Joy has a soul and the others are simply "androids".
I guess I would have liked more of the life of the Nexus 6 characters... but I am not the director. :)

Oh... and they bloomin' cut out a good portion of the sex scene this time. So I take there are at least two versions making the rounds in cinemas worldwide. A Rated version and a (Less)Rated version.

When I did not see what I had already previously seen I went like WTF... and that went out pretty "loud" ...I just could not control it really... I just did not expect that.

Luckily the family with child had already walked out after the more violent scenes at the beginning...

The cinema was still crowded anyway. I do hope for a sequel though. There are really plenty of unanswered question out there! ;)

Hi all,

Thanks to DC, who has shared with me numerous sources I didn't have, I am (after two years) putting the final touches on a compilation of the Blade Runner music as it was used in the film -- every single cue, edited or crossfaded as necessary, using the Director's Cut as my reference.

Any news?

Any news?

I've done a rough cut for listening while I take a break to do work related things (earning a living). I quite like how it flows, but I want to re-do three or four of the edits and improve a couple of the fades to make them smoother. It's getting close!

Hi everyone,
I've been obsessed with track "Mesa" from Blade Runner 2049. So I decided to make my own extended version.

Go back a couple of pages and you'll see the tracklist of the complete score that I'm working on currently. With DC's help, I'm hoping to have it out in November, and I think it will be the most comprehensive one yet.

It doesn't. Vangelis recorded it for the 25th anniversary soundtrack expansion.

Oh cool, I had no idea he had produced entirely new material. Funny how he turned down 2049 because you can't reproduce the same thing again, yet Mr Vangelis successfully concocted some delicious new pieces of ear candy for us to devour in the 25th anniversary soundtrack!

Duuuuuude!

Yeah its the wrong thread.....and forum. But, I'm guessing someone may have guessed I'm also a..... 'tallicA Fan.

AND, ...Well....if any other on there and I don't mention this....I won't sleep tonight.

It does not sound that "perfect" though... I still stick to my "vintage" vinyl versions! ;)

Pity I had to move the turntable downstairs... cannot quite "bed-diving" as I used to in my bedroom! :)

Found a very interesting piece about the history of the Westwood BR game...
FUTURE IMPERFECT
THE LOST ART OF WESTWOOD�S BLADE RUNNER

"One of the technical changes with that game was the establishment of a motion capture stage at Westwood. I remember that Joe Kucan, our director � better known as the villain of Command & Conquer � provided the swivel-hipped walk of hard-as-nails female cop Crystal Steele. I believe some professionals were brought in for motion capture of the strippers, though.� � James McNeill, Core Programmer"

Let's give him thumb up ;)
Merry Christmass ;)

At long last, it's finished!

It took two years, but with tremendous help and guidance from DC and Calidoran, without whom I could not have done this, we now have the first ever reconstruction of the complete Blade Runner score as it appears in the film, using bootlegs, official versions, and (most importantly) rear channels from the 5.1 mixes of the international DVD releases. There's a good bit here that's never been available without dialogue and sound effects, and some things have never been available at all. Long-existing pitch/speed issues have been fixed for a number of the cues, as well as proper edits and titles corresponding to scenes in the movie.

Among the highlights:

- Prologue and Main titles music is accurate
- the sequence from Blue Room/Flight to Tyrell Corp/Deckard Meets Rachael/Rachael's Voight-Kampf Test is complete for the first time anywhere
- Pris Meets JF Sebastian with the overlay of Ogi No Mato as it appears in the film
- The Love Theme with the first piano part as it appears in the film (I'm really proud of this one)
- the cues for Baty and Deckard's duel are accurate for the first time anywhere
- the crossfade from Rachael Sleeps to the End Titles has been reconstructed to match the film

I will also be including a BONUS DISC of full length tracks which appear in edited form within the film.

Both mp3 and flac versions will be available.

By the way, SlvrHmrm.... great job! The Unknown Asian Music (track 18 on CD2, not mentioned in your tracklist but just before "The Roof") is called "Chidori no Kyoku" from Michio Miyagi. You will find the full track on the "EMS Recombination (The Japanese Tracks)".

Thank you!

As for the Untitled Asian Music, I searched Chidori repeatedly to find that section but DC assures me it was a piece of music recorded by Vangelis with Asian musicians. Chidori is however represented by the blimpvert track at the beginning of disc 1. If anyone has any further information about the Untitled track, please let me know. I remain curious.

I remain curious as well. And regarding the excerpt of "Chidori no Kyoku" used for the blimp, it sounds like a different performance was used in the film. So perhaps it was a production recording by Vangelis, or the filmmakers found a different recording produced in the 70s or early 80s

I think it may have been processed/eq'd differently. I did the best I could to approximate what they may have done, but I could only get so close. The recording on the source LP runs slower, for one thing.

No, it's definitely a different vocalist. I'll try to do some more research on it. And it's so frustrating that the 'untitled' Asian piece continues to evade us after all these years. Not even the Shazam app can recognize it!

Oh so it's a different recording! I hadn't done any research on that possibility, so that would explain a lot. I do have a pretty clear isolation of the blimpvert music, which I should probably substitute. I was trying to be clever!

Nope. It is the very same performance as used for the EMS... the difference is simply in "pitch"... or I should say in "speed".
When time stretched it will match that of the movie... or so I was told....
The problem is that also the one used for the EMS needed to be speed up.

The damn belt of the bloomin' turntable needs to be serviced every single year... and I did not know that at the time. :(
The fault was on my side on that.

I have done a corrected version, but that will come out with the remastered 2019 version of the EMS of course! ;)

The problem with older Michio Miyagi records is that what is still available is simply vinyl transferred on vinyl with all the issues that come along the process.
He did more than one version of that particular track anyway.
The japanese collector who shed light on that seemed to be well aware about that particular version.

As for the "Untitled Asian Music" cue I would "safely" assume that when Vangelis did have a whole host of japanese musicians and instruments at Nemo studios (and he did that as some of you already know by Raine Shine notes about the period n.d.r.) MUST HAVE PRODUCED SOMETHING OF THE SORT.

PERIOD.

Of course I'd like to be proven wrong with my assumptions anyway!

But I'll quote Tony Wilson [Factory Records n.d.r.] on that: “When forced to pick between truth and legend, print the legend.” :)

Only the production team does know what is needed to know, but to date they never bothered to shed any light on that anyway.

Maybe it's worth reaching out to the editor Terry Rawlings via IMDBPro!

And "Chidoro no Kyoku" is definitely a different recording in the film: there's a little less plucking on the koto, and the voice sounds younger.

However, I don't doubt that Vangelis recorded Japanese source music for the film. In fact, at one point in the "Fans and Filmmakers" featurette on the DVD/Blu-ray, one can hear a snippet of the koto piece from when Deckard looks at the blimp in his first scene

After listening to the blimpvert section from the Workprint, I believe the version of "Chidori no Kyoku" used in Blade Runner is indeed a different recording than Michio Miyagi's. There's a variation in the vocal inflection -- which isn't audible in the mix on the Final Cut -- that is clearly different from the Miyagi version. I'll have to check the Fans and Filmmakers featurette, but now I wonder if Vangelis recorded a version of this traditional piece as well as the piece heard during Baty and Deckard's fight, or if it's just a version we haven't discovered yet.

If you really want to go down that rabbit hole, here's a site that lists numerous recordings of Chidori no Kyoku:

https://www.komuso.com/pieces/pieces.pl?piece=1807

Thanks to you all for the extra information about "Chidori no Kyoku". Very interesting!

I should also say that I think the "Untitled Asian Music" heard during Deckard and Baty's fight is another traditional Japanese piece, possibly recorded by Vangelis, that we simply haven't identified yet. Anyone know an expert on Japanese traditional music?

I know I'm just new but I saw the latest piece the other day: The Complete Score Blade Runner 35th Anniversary Limited Edition. I tried to download it but no success. I get "Transfer deleted". Any help with this one? I would be honored to give that piece a listening.

So, just want to introduce myself to you all. I will be chatting with you do (a lot) more searching around on this site. I already have some questions, but I'll wait and search a little more before I ask.

Hi Jonny, and welcome. I will be re-upping the mp3 and flac versions of the 35th anniversary soon to a more permanent place. I want to fix a couple of issues that have been brought to my attention first, however, so I don't have to revisit this project anytime soon. I'm also finalizing my essay on the film score, including a cue-by-cue walk-through of the music.

Thanks SlvrHmrm. :)
Is that comment meant for me Gondola? I'm just a fellow Blade Runner fan with the same appreciation of the music. Don't mean to appear as another "tag along". And I don't know how many others are linked onto this site, but it's so fantastic and the most complete info about any of the music that's out there, with other fans. This is the best that I could have ever found!! If this is a dream then I don't ever want to "wake up"!!!

No, I think Gondola is just referring to the sheer number of bootlegs

Well I'm glad we cleared that up ;)

Ahhhh! That sounds much better! Thanks :)

So what's anyones take on the music of Blade Runner 2049? Personally...not too bad, but still lacks something. Obviously didn't give the same "vibe" of Vangeles'. Listening to the new score now makes me appreciate Vangeles more with the feel he emits with the flow in his notes and tones. His just consumes your inner feeling senses. He brings you into that realm of overall dark ambience allowing your senses to make you feel you are there....busy city streets, echoes, dark alleyways, humongous tall skyscraper buildings, the hum of a Spinner...if they do infact make another sequel (which looks like Ridley might do) they should try for Vangeles. Don't get me wrong, the music for the second BR is very good. Nice to listen to. Don't mean to trash it. Just not the same.

jesus christ there are so many of these

For brevity's sake, if there are many, the only way to experience the Blade Runner score is following dadadacicici's recommendations on these threads:

I really love the EMS Recombination myself. :D

If that's not your cup of tea/coffe/etc., watch Oliver Harper's review on the music and just grab the 25th Anniversary 3 CD, despite it not being close to the film versions, incomplete, etc.: https://youtu.be/YLBXZzHZ1yE?t=21m26s

Wow, I guess that's really a lot of Blade Runner... xD

So what's anyones take on the music of Blade Runner 2049? My take is that Denis Villeneuve was lying through his teeth when he said that he needed to get closer to the sound of Vangelis, because it sounds nothing like Vangelis

I really love the EMS Recombination myself. :D

Then you might want to stick around this very Saturday for the reposting of the EMS! Now complete with the correct speed for the "Chidori" cue and the proper "I Am The Business" version! :)

Excellent! I'll be sure to keep checking this Saturday. Any other changes or corrections made, along with these 2 tracks?

When you burn a cd if the cd comes out "as-not-intended" (bad, skippy or with the wrong track order or whatever) you end up with a coaster. Something that might as well sits as a beermat or a drink coaster instead than in your cd player. :)

And if you think that the EMS is unfortunately still being sold on eBay and some dumb collectors are still offering up to 150 bucks each set of the release... well... that's what they have been paying their beermat.

Sorry, but no. Sorry.

2011 started with the release of Blade Runner: EMS Recombination; a team effort to create a Blade Runner soundtrack as clean as possible, without F/X and dialogue for fans to enjoy. On its release the soundtrack was well received, spawning numerous other compilations. However the work didn't stop there.
For the lossless release, the EMS Team wanted to offer something a little different and not just repackage the original version. Changes were made to the running order and tracks were reworked as other sources were found.
Extended versions of "At Mr. Chew's" and "Desolation Path" were created along with new tracks "Waiting For Zhora" and "Memories Of Green/Blade Runner Blues". With the help of some new friends, the EMS Team are proud to present for the first time a clean version of "Thinking Of Rachel".

Blade Runner EMS Recombination is an own attempt to create a “Best of” soundtrack from all the available bootlegs of Vangelis’ superb score.
The selection criteria was very simple: find the pieces that represented the film score in their cleanest (without dialogue and sfx as much as was possible) versions and be of the best available sound quality. It kept most of the titles of the source tracks only changing a few as some had some obscure titles not immediately obvious to the wider audience.
I hope you enjoy listening as much as I did while making this compilation.

Better tagging all along.

SORRY, BUT NOT SORRY TO ALL EBAY BUYERS THAT WILL NOW END UP WITH A COASTER.

Some of the tracks presented here are essentially (re)assemblages of elements buried in the official view/mix of the movie, enhanced for the listener with soundtrack, audio effects and narration to place the cues in their cinematic context; the flute music and percussion piece being an extreme example of this more cinematic approach to the soundtrack. The rest of the tracks were remixed from the original audio streams to add extra aural details on the japanese cues. There might be some debate as to whether some of this is part of Vangelis' original compositions for the movie, or just someone else's creation. A couple of cues were finally uncovered and included here, thanks to the input of 1187hunterwasser and Kazushi Kimura of the Blade Runner fan network. The rest are part of an ongoing search, which one day may come to a conclusion and expand the Blade Runner soundtrack catalogue further.

One of the aspects of the multicultural melting pot portrayed in Blade Runner was the influence of far eastern culture in the daily life of 2019 Los Angeles. From the Chinese food vendors of the White Dragon noodle bar, through the Cambodian sales lady on Animoid Row, right up to the Shimata Dominguez Corporation sponsorship of the off world colonies. Pervading all of this was the music of the far east, whether blaring out from an animated billboard or drifting down from on high from the ever present advertising blimp. Of the pieces played, “Ogi No mato” is the most widely known among the fans, in a mainly truncated version. There were other pieces played and not always as conspicuous. Last year when one of the tracks was identified through the fan network as “Chidori no Kyoku”, the EMS team members began a search of various sources to identify which version of this track was used.
The most likely candidate was a performance by Michio Miyagi. The second step was to review the film and find when the music was played. The track in an excerpted form turned up in the background music playing during the scene with Deckard waiting for a seat at the White Dragon. Layered with other music including “Ogi No Mato”, identifying whether the Miyagi version was the correct one came down to a blind audio test between B5hm, who noted where the excerpt in the film corresponded exactly to the part of the Miyagi track, and DC. When DC independently identified the same part, they both concluded apart from a slight alteration in pitch, this was the correct version. DC began the time consuming process of transferring the track from vinyl to digital media and cleaning the track up, removing over 14,000 audio defects to present the track in its fullest and cleanest version here.
The search still goes on for the alternate blimp track heard as it passes over the Bradbury and during the scene as Deckard hangs from the side of the Bradbury. B5hm’s Japanese source could only identify two words “hito me” literally translates as “person’s eye”....

The EMS Team present here cues taken from the different versions of Blade Runner including previously unreleased flute music and percussion piece.
These pieces were heard in the background during the sushi bar sequence and are presented here for the first time.

EMS RECOMBINATION INTERWEBZ CASE (https://www.discogs.com/Vangelis-Blade-Runner-EMS-Recombination-Definitive-Edition/release/3141347)

The peculiar case of a zealous archivist nicknamed HMVH. A true tale of passion, dedication, commitment, vision, ambition and great determination.

Do Discogs really need revisionists like Herr HMVH?
No ifs, ands, or buts!

What is the true object of his mighty quest?
Go ask him, though you might find that a pretty "forged" answer.

What are Herr HMVH's authentic motives?
We are not permitted to know... though there is massive amount of evidence about the EMS Recombination all over the world wide web... it does not exist outside Herr HMVH' own golden globe.

But let the Hollywood hero speak for himself: "Owner of a voting statue since 08-02-2007 when the badge was worn with pride.
Disruptor. Mediator. Advocatus diaboli. The blizzard of 'ogs. Ridin' shotgun on the Bulk Removal Machine™. I fix things and remove shit."

"I am a collector because I collect a particular kind of 'release'. I am a hoarder because I amass many 'releases' before I get around to ''processing'' them.
I am an archivist because I make selective backups as well as disseminate and publish facts and data which future generations might find useful.

"I’ve been a member of discogs.com for a full decade.

"It has become as much a part of my daily online regimen as checking my email or Twitter feed. No other site has grabbed my attention in the way that Discogs has, nor has any other online resource infuriated me in the same manner.
"Discogs is as fascinating as it is frustrating.

"Last night I made my 1000th contribution to the Discogs database.

"It’s a landmark achievement. One thousand new audio entries!

"It’s also baffling why it took almost 12 years to get to this stage."

But we must again let our hero speak for himself. No other mind can so accurately set forth his varied excellencies. Planned denial assertion was: "As stated numerous times about, this is just a random fanboy collection of rips and random filez from the interwebz, complete with artwork to burn your own CDRs with. Not eligible, removal long overdue, sorry.

"Blade Runner™ as artist? Really?

The majority vote was in favor of removing this release."

REALLY. PERIOD. GET A BETTER ONE. NO OFFENCE TAKEN. NO OFFENCE MEANT.
WE DO NOT PITY DISCOGS. WE PITY YOUR REVISIONISM, AND, ABOVE ALL THE LOBBYING ELITE LIKE YOU ACTING IN PACK MODE.

END OF LINE.

And then there's the usual tried-and-tested eBuy smartholes going like:

"EMS Productions. TYRELL MUSIC. LIMITED EDITION UNNUMBEREDS. LIKE NEW.

Oh my... again?

Big shout to Contrabandista J. and his 100% positive feedback. Based in Spain, he has been an eBuy member since Mar 31, 2005

Not bad when you are marketing "random fanboy collection of rips and random filez from the interwebz, complete with artwork to burn your own CDRs with". How would our hero account for that?
Really? Fine, whatever.

We cannot thank him enough for the denial of the very evidence that this random fanboy collection of rips and filez from the interwebz is still making the rounds outside his own archives and to keep on disseminating and publishing facts and data which future generations will find really useful.

Some people might perhaps be smarter or better at seeing things that simply remain "clouded" for the majority, but that kind of superhero behavior does not acknowledge for that. File it under ethical hacking if you need to.
When something is not ready-there-at-all someone will always have a go at it. There was nothing we were ashamed of when the project was born. But of course Herr HMVH will need a fact to acknowledge that. Any unofficial release turns into official only when one bids for it. That is a fact all right! Innit?

But the serious sellers keep the world go round (and round) while their preferred best-selling-platform collects its fix on that.
What's so bad about making a living after all?

We know you guys shop here and resell there, but again we just wish you all the best in your easy cashing out from dumb-to-to-bone collectors alike.

Ha! The ones who got the limited batch of pressed copies will get a 2 disc replacements free of charge of course.

And he is not the only one. There is a whole lobby of honest scammers making quick bucks of other people's efforts out there.

God of biomechanics bless such fine and long running respected businessmans!

At least Discogs took a stand against piracy: "This release has been blocked from sale in the marketplace. It is not permitted to sell this item on Discogs"
And guess what happened next? They all happily migrated on eBuy which dropped their fees to a minimum. Of course...

Anyway... Never mind the preposterous unfortunate eBuy side effects.
With our utmost pleasure here we present to you the EMS Recombination as we'd all like to be passed on to future generations and shared back to all peers of good will!

Enjoy! The EMS Team



When I was asked to join this project I was astounded by what B5 was wanting to achieve with his first compilation. I already knew Jack for his excellent graphic skills after having stumbled on FFS during the usual searches for my preferred soundtrack. I was working on a partial restoration of the sources on tape and once we got to exchange some different opinions on what we both wanted to achieve, Jack kindly offered to free me from the task of making the covers (I don’t have all the time in the world to learn everything I’m afraid) leaving me more time to concentrate on the audio. It will have to be thanks to him that at an idle stage of our interest for the Blade Runner matter all his covers will stay on our homemade cd cases. (I'm afraid we cannot all be the limited number of lucky collectors that afforded the originals...) and Jack’s work on that along with Synaptyx, Pendor and the rest is something to praise. B5 was exceptionally good in planning the overall plot to which me and Jack added the extra details. He is also good at what he writes actually. That was where he took his nickname if you can keep the secret!
Something that has been lying right there in front of everybody. Someone had surely picked up a best of every-other-bootleg around, like 1187hunterwasser did on page 3 of the The Blade Runner Soundtracks Ultimate Thread in compiling a list that went to be the inspiration for a release called “29th Anniversary” that will be eventually posted on Final Fantasy Shrine Forums. Also Donnor has done a great job in isolating the unreleased tracks on his BLADE RUNNER MUSIC blog that ended up becoming the inspiration for the maker of the “2019 Edition”. Something very similar to the EMS called “Chinatown Club” (a compilation contemporary to it) ended up being re-shaped in its concept according to what was done on the EMS 2010.
The EMS cleverly used the best of the best sources around at the initial stage of compiling. The “Chinatown Club” had something different though. A more cinematic feel perhaps. At least I saw that as the difference I wanted to make to the maker's original concept (a nice peer named Zelmo Swift) when I was asked to help with the edits on that. Hopefully it sits in a different direction now. I believe the main credit of the EMS project is to have seen through the different sources and the work of others to shape a perfect sounding version of the soundtrack and somehow that was achieved in the concept that B5 has given to the release.
As B5 has pointed out: “The selection criteria was very simple: find the pieces that represented the film score in their cleanest (without dialogue and sfx as much as was possible) versions and be of the best available sound quality. It kept most of the titles of the source tracks only changing a few as some had some obscure titles not immediately obvious to the wider audience.”

When we finally id'ed one of the japanese sources (thanks to the help of Kazushi Kimura of the Blade Runner fan network and also thanks to the input of 1187hunterwasser and Donnor) the idea of a the bonus disc was developed giving the release that more cinematic approach that I was furthering in the making of a release called “Blade Runner - Ultimate MR3”. We went a bit lost at this stage since we had to actually create something that was not immediately there this time. B5 was busy balancing EMS duties with his real life job and I was feeling lost from the sudden passing of my hardware. It took more to shape the bonus disc than the rest of it in a way.
I found myself working at four different projects at the same time, messing things up among these and losing track of the notes and edits done for each one. All the suggestions made on the Yahoo soundtrack group were taken verbatim and for that I have to thank Chandler from the Grey Fedora team. Vicente and Sebastian work was taken into great account too, as the work by Anthony Micele on some of the edits we borrowed his ideas. The list goes on up to the Esper makers and the Shimato Dominguez Corporation for the Off World edition. All the different versions were analyzed and all waveforms compared to check for anything quirk. I had already started doing this for some work on the master tapes I did some short time before. In the making I ended up re-doing the whole Esper releases and being able to fix most of the faulty tracks on some releases thanks to the FIC sources that were used for the M�moires series and Asian Worlds releases. Once you know the sources the rest is editing and sequencing. And there are only three. The movie audio streams (the FIC source being the stereo mix of the dubs), the master tapes (the outtakes being the fully mastered cues) and the official 1994 and 2007 releases. The sources that did not comply with the correct pitch posed a major problem, and most of the people that worked on Blade Runner material know of the +4% curse of most of the music in order to be used for the movie. There is something called time stretching when working on different analogue audio sources and those algorithms take up hours when working on large portions of audio but that was accomplished when doing something else while patiently waiting for the output. I would grow mad and I would curse when realizing a silly mistake in the elements for the calculations... but that is the way when working on anything... trial and error until it gets closer to what you are expecting. B5 and Jack have a word for that... but as pointed out... no one is perfect... that's why pencils have erasers. Two computers passed away without warning and in between that a couple of hard disk drives said goodbye without a second call... or at least I couldn't listen... Somehow I was able to retrieve most of the data I needed for the projects I was working on and ended up buying also an external 250 GB HD to make sense of all of this, but everything about the making of things went messed up and cannot tell which is which or how I got to that stage even if the final results are sitting here waiting to find the right time to make an useful sense of it. Presets used now are something for the FBI computer experts only to try to make a sense out of it. After the EMS 2010 was out a limited set of copies were traded and shared and thanks to that we were able to add some extra sources we only had in a poor quality until that day, so I ended up re-editing them with better quality sources tweaking the hell out of them to make sense in making sitting them in the same disc. You tell if I got it right or not, but that was the best I could get out of what we had. If Vangelis will step up on earth again after gazing for a last time at us from mount Olympus he will make sense of everything we did wiping everything else out with a snap of a finger like lightning! Until that that was the best we could achieve. Lots of editing went on between what B5 visualised as the finished concept for it and what I was apparently seeing.
I was simply making an extension to what I was working to at the time (the Ultimate MR3) and in hindsight B5 was right. Jack ended to be the inspiration for lots of the added material with his ideas and somehow was caught in between since we all had our ideas for that and did not want to waste one either... so it took all the time it took us to finish off the last details since May 2011 when almost everything was ready for the first 3 discs.
What was not yet available was done, what had to be made better was done along what was already made by Vicente, Chandler, Plimmy, Sebastian, Jamie, Antas, Zyzz and so on. If you can't beat them try to sound like them. Disc 1 to 3 is the same music you have been always hoping for in a way. The bonus disc is a different angle of the japanese cues used in the movie. And for different angle I mean it.
The original sources were remixed so to enhance some of the aspects buried in the official view of the movie.
Some of the original 1992 version was eventually retained since the new 2007 version has been changing things in a drastic way (and not always as satisfactory way). Also the workprint version was used as you might hear.
The list of the sources (most likely used) is including all the infos that you might need (if you please), but as responsible for most of the edits most tracks were quite re-enhanced and re-worked, denoised and changed compared to the original sources, that I now lost track of what was done. A final note must go along the Spiderwalk's “Blade Runner Complete Score” sources since while working on all the sources gathered I found myself in stepping back to the original sources used by the maker (25th anniversary edition) to achieve longer or different fades. B5 got them from there anyway. It remains another best of sources matter of fact. Props to the maker. Same goes for “Blade Runner - The Final Mix” by Plimmy. The sources are here anyway. Lots of work has been done on “Thinking of Rachel” alone. When B5 mentioned the idea of something clean anyone would have never expected the version we came up with in the end. I had already made an edit for the “Chinatown Club” but those distracting elements from the movie (which I did not mind at all) were still there even if the idea of a cleaner version with Morrisey saxophone was one of B5’s wishes for the EMS from day one. I pretty hate denoisers since the very first time I used an analogue one in a recording studio, but Anita and Zyzz pretty changed my view seeing what they did. Anita is the maker of “The Tales Of The Future” release and Zyzz is the maker of the “Blade Runner 2011 Restored/Remastered Edition”. What you hear is a combined edit of the various tries by the people involved in the restoration process. Everything was then pasted by the frame and ready to be mastered for the EMS release. The master track was achieved from more than 4 GB's of data anyway and no way I could possibly re-do that. That was like the Director’s cut in a way... trial and errors until it got to that stage. The cleaning up of the Myagi song was a bit of a nightmare since it was a transfer from a very old vinyl and once you get rid of the defects of your original the defects of the original source used comes forward... Basically the original master was a vinyl transfer itself... I’m hoping a good master for it will be made available one day. It should be part of human patrimony... I wish Columbia might do that one day. As for me it took a whole month to fix a single song.
My original plan to restore all the vinyl became impossible because of time restrictions. If no one else does it, I would like to do that before I retire... For the Flute track and the Percussion track there was a lot of work also.
We had a preview of the isolated audio streams taken from the movie from Zyzz (whose work is to keep an eye on by the way) and I came up with the idea of layering a different mix the original elements partly removed from it to put back the spatial reference to the movie so to get the background music coming through as you would have never listened to because it was simply buried in the mix. Zyzz eventually decided not to include that cue on his release since he had chosen not to compromise on sound quality for his 2011 edition and B5 was gladly accepting that as a contribution while me and Jack tried to get the best of both worlds in doing what we ended up to use for the bonus disc. I hope we pleased everyone on that. We had our discussions and we chose to compromise on lots of things, but as time was passing by we had the chance to realize what was being done and naturally came to the solutions for our different ideas in the end. And I am glad we did. It was team work up to the last bit. Time helped a lot, giving us the time to focus on the smaller details in order to achieve what you now are holding. Longer unedited versions are floating around but will be used for the “Ultimate MR3” along with the other reworks that did not make it on the official tracklist... I am not going to mention the box of shame we deserved for the artworks... Only when everyone was done with the audio testing we kept spotting errors that kept on returning after having been fixed once and re-appeared after changing things all over again. Jack had plenty of patience in re-touching everything readily. He gets all the credit for the best dress the EMS could hope for and useful suggestions he made all along.
And those are the words I have for these two wonderful chaps! It was nice having you guys as partners in crime really!

Best Regards, DC

Thanks DC, much appreciated that you continue to spread the great works of our Maestro - VANGELIS ! Bravo!

Ohh an Mp3 version too! Thank you very much!

Thanks!

DC,
these are one of the best lines of an honest music lover who shares his interests and work without makeing profit... rare these days...
Two thumbs up !
Keep it up, pal... You're a real benefit to this marvelous thread!

Thanks for the Blade Runner EMS Recombination.

So everything on Bonus Disc (Limited), is also on Bonus Disc?

So everything on Bonus Disc (Limited), is also on Bonus Disc?

Yep! The limited one is the original concept of the bonus disc. It was what you might ideally ever needed about the japanese cues in the movie. The official extended version might be more redundant perhaps, but all cues were "in there".
That completist type of approach was what lead straight to the 29th Anniversary in a way.
Another release should have ideally followed the EMS. On the same tones of the japanese bonus disc. But working on the 29th Anniversary ended up draining all the necessary time to finish it off properly and what was called Ultimate MR3 remained only "in traces" on the extended bonus disc. :)

Thanks for your efforts.

Thanks for your efforts.

On behalf of all of the EMS Team... you're all welcome! ;)

I give my extreme applause to all of the EMS Team for the creation of the EMS Recombination! This is one FANTASTIC piece! Thank you...thank you! The Bonus Disc with the Japanese cuts is a true gem! Much clearer here, taken from the movie. Disc 3 has some pretty cool tracks. "Leon's Voight Kampff Test (Alternate Take)" is a nice take. Whats the history of the track on disc 1, "Qu'ran"? I see that Brian Eno and David Byrne are the creators. What's their take with this tune? Was it in the movie?

dadadacicici I've seen the 25th Anniversary 4 CD compilation on Discogs website. What's your view on it? It has a "wide" collection of Blade Runner tracks that don't appear in the movie: "Mail From India", "Launch Approval", "Spokane Z Matka", and , again, "Qu'ran"....just to name a few. Along with the "1982 Theatrical Trailer", "TVSpot", and NBC's Radio Specials. Where did these come from? This work of art has quite a collaboration of many thematic tracks. Is DC Music/Pendor the creator(s)?

Hi DC thanks for the EMS recombination, can't seem to get part 2 or 3 to extract though, I also have a question about starting a thread, er.. how does one start a thread? I waded through FAQs but can't seem to see how to do it. My intention is to offer the best of my soundtrack collection for download.

Whats the history of the track on disc 1, "Qu'ran"? I see that Brian Eno and David Byrne are the creators. What's their take with this tune? Was it in the movie?

Qu'ran was originally intended to be used in the movie (you can still hear it on the workprint version) and eventually resurfaced on The Final Cut for a brief moment when Deckard ask for directions while a couple of strippers show off on a platform stage if I remember correctly.
Most likely the director was not too sure about using only the Vangelis output. Go guess...

As for the track in itself in some countries it became quite a taboo to have it on the Brian Eno and David Byrne album while it was widely available on other countries version.
All of this because of the algerian muslims chanting the Qur'an samples used in the track which prompted complaints from some religious organizations.
Unfortunately when it comes to some religious organizations either you respect everything regards such religions either you leave it there washing your hands and bear the consequences afterwards.
While in time western civilization have learnt to accept all religious interpretations (take the band Slayer as an extreme example) the same cannot be said of a smaller part of the civilization that follows the Qu'ran where such interpretations might often ends up lapidated... or burned like witches. Charlie Hebdo as an extreme example. Sadly.

The 25th Anniversary edition is a segued 3 CD compilation, though there is a bootleg version called 29th Anniversary which is an unmixed 4 CD compilation and does include also Qu'ran.
That particular version originated here from a couple of frustrated aficionados (with a great help from their friends) voicing a small faction of perfectionists posting here and on Yahoo! Here's the comment (now purged most likely...) originally posted on Discogs:


"The Blade Runner 20th Anniversary Edition, out in 2002 and most likely not by the same person responsible for the original Blade Runner Off World Edition as stated on the cd, was a mixture of the Off World Edition bootleg and the official 1994 edition of the soundtrack without taking into account the huge difference in quality between the sources. On The 29th Anniversary all that could be done was done to even out the differences even if the makers would not count on "near perfect" quality for this 29th Anniversary version. At least same quality of the official 25th Anniversary sources and "almost perfect but not quite" quality for the rest of the unreleased cues on the Off World edition, Soundtrack Outtakes and front and rear audio channels leaked from the speeded up (compared to the original NTSC) PAL movie DVDs in some cases. This is meant to be a private release related to everything Blade Runner to celebrate its 29th anniversary and is not licenced for public sale. All rights of the producer and of the owner of the work reproduced reserved. This is a fan-work and not for profit. All copyrights belong to their respective owners. No copyright infringement intended. Not for sale: do not support eBay piracy. It was available for members of a private forum owing the official releases of the soundtrack but sadly missing what was so laboriously included in these companion discs."

If you scroll back to the 2011 posts you will find all the needed infos on the subject! ;)

Hey DC, thanks for the info. But I meant the 29th Anniversary, not the 25th. Sorry about that. I have the 25th Anniversary.

I've come across quite a few song son youtube recently. They're very "deep"....

Blade Runner, Rain, and Police Scanner - Dystopian Dream Sounds for Sleep - 2 hours
BLADE RUNNER 2049 - 4H AMBIENT SOUNDTRACK LOOP - HANS ZIMMER
3 HOURS BLADE RUNNER 2017 RAIN THUNDER & MUSIC with BLACKSCREEN
BLADE RUNNER - Chinatown - Ambience
Futurescape - 1hr Ambience, Inspired by Blade Runner & Cyberpunk
hores of Orion - Sensory Deprevation Ambient (Blade Runner 2049 Unofficial OST)

....just to name a few. Any info on these? I don't have the official 2049 soundtrack, so I don't know if any of them are taken from any track off it. They certainly can put you to sleep though.

Most likely the director was not too sure about using only the Vangelis output. Go guess...

No, they just couldn't get the rights to the song the first time around

Yeah! I knew! Do scroll back to the 2011 posts! Everything concerning Pendor and DC Music is there!
Some of the songs on YouTube are interesting.
I am having a few compilations of the material on YouTube with the artist's permission. One day they will be posted hopefully. :)

I see. But they did eventually get the rights for the Final Cut....

I see. But they did eventually get the rights for the Final Cut....

Yes. Or at least part of it before the music switches back to Vangelis when Deckard enters the club

Does anyone here know how to get in touch with "Zyser," the person behind the wonderful Nemo Studios website? I'd like to send him my essay on the score, as well as the complete version of the score.

Edit: I think I found it!

I was thinking of creating a modern style trailer of the original Blade Runner.... any thoughts anyone??

What a labour of love - amazing. Thanks

You could start the trailer with the famous quote of Roy Batty: "I've seen things, you people wouldn't beleive....." followed by the Spinner-flight to the police station ("Spinner Ascent")....

What about the quote from Eldon Tyrell? "The light that burns twice as bright, burns half as long... and you have burned so very, very brightly, Roy"

It's a phrase I like very miuch, but is not so well known outside of would-be Blade Runner fans. The "Roy quote" from OhOh7 is still one of the best but also nearly known to everybody. Even Paul Oakenfold used it in several Mix-Albums... So why not something not that usual...?

Yes I c what u mean, many of the good trailers still tend to overuse certain pieces of dialogue. I've started creating it but it's now harder than I thought :)

Keep in the back of your mind that a trailer would be acting as an introduction to the movie. Overuse of lines wouldn't come into play because they would theoretically have no resonance with a new viewer. Select snippets of dialogues/shots which would serve as an introduction or a draw for your potential 'fresh' audience. I am agreement with OhOh7 - "I've seen things, you people wouldn't believe....." is the perfect introductory line. You could play that over a black screen and then fade into the quick (and I mean QUICK) edits, the Hades landscape, a the shot of the spinner in flight and the ascent to the Police HQ. Fade to Black with red text "From Ridley Scott, director of ALIEN"...

That sounds cool! Thanks. Originally I was making an audio trailer and was going to add it as a bonus track to my ultra edition, but then couldn't resist the thought of a video, let's face it with visuals like Scott's it would be hard to go wrong. I came across some old TV spots with a voice over (not Ford's) it leads of with "I met her at the Tyrell cooperation, you know, the big boys in genetic engineering" it kind of gave me some ideas....

Why not making it into a trailer for SlvrHmrm's 35th Anniversary at this point? :)

Hey all,

Here is a "Score Restore" video I created for a sequence where most of the music was dialed out and replaced with other cues, including an insert that we still don't have. The timing is pretty consistent throughout, except for the bathroom confrontation between Deckard and Batty. My guess is that it was re-cut without affecting the pace of the music (somehow), hence why the filmmakers tracked in a portion of "I'm Hungry, J.F." (real title unknown) to cover up the gap

https://vimeo.com/254197554/e6f910b163

Thanks for that. It's really interesting to see that sequence with the music as originally composed. Do you think that the BFI repertoire titles refer to these cues, and not the ones used in the film? And do we know where the "Wounded Animals" name for all this comes from?

What is the insert you say that we still don't have?

I'm positive that the BMI repertoire titles refer to these original cues. When checking the scene selection menu, "Wounded Animals" is the name of this scene on the laserdisc and subsequent home video releases.

In the film mix from 3:54-5:15, there is a cue with the "cat howl" sound that replaces the original cue. It has never leaked

It's almost exactly what's mis-labeled on every bootleg as "Roy Enters the Bradbury." I was able to pull a relatively clean version of this music with minimal sound effects (just a few minor swishing sounds in the background) from the rear channels of the Spanish surround mix. It's on the 35th Anniversary Edition as the second half of what I've titled "Show Me What You're Made Of." The beginning of that cue is from "Wounded Animals," joined with a quick cross-fade into the second part. I should probably name the first part "Roy Finds Pris" and distinguish them as two different cues.

@dadadacicici please clean out your mailbox :)

Those are some nice suggested quotes for the start of a trailer. How about "Commerce, is our goal here at Tyrell. More human than human is our motto...We began to recognize in them strange obsession. After all they are emotional inexperienced with only a few years in which to store up the experiences which you and I take for granted. If we gift them the past we create a cushion or pillow for their emotions and consequently we can control them better."

Could anyone give me some info regarding the "Blade Runner 2008" soundtrack? Who created it? It seems kind of "quiet". Meaning you don't hear much about it. I gave it a listen and I think it's a pretty good piece put together. 27 tracks on disc 1! Some very cool tracks.
Heeeelp! :)

After the release of the Blade Runner DVD's in 2007 several releases originating from the surround channels followed.
The "Blade Runner 2008 Edition" was one of the takes the subject along with "The Sound Of Blade Runner", the "Silver & Moments Editions" and "2019 Theatrical Version".

Yes. Same here. Use an ad blocker and you'll be fine. :)

I thought it was an addon added in google chrome but i didn't find it.
Maybe the site is hacked or something else ...

I think the site has just been - sadly - monetized by the owners. Anyway wanted to thank dadadacicici for the new upload of EMS Recombination, still the best IMO. I keep a few others around including my very first (Gongo) for nostalgic reasons, but EMS-R makes the others pretty much redundant, no offense to their very talented compilers. Everyone represented here has done stellar work, so thanks to all for your devotion to a film, and its music, that have in every sense become classic.

Wanted to weigh in a bit on BR2049, which I very happily saw in a tiny theatre with reclining seats so comfy I might have been at home. :)

I thought Villeneuve did a very fine job. Some notable but very harmonious differences, all in keeping with either acknowledging the original or updating for both plot continuity and modern viewing tastes. I like that it was even more dystopian (although that said, and yes I know it doesn't belong in this forum, ecosystems are not "collapsing" on our planet, and anyone who wants to take it offline can PM me). Entire landscapes are gray and desolate (or orange and burnt out, not surprising I guess when you know the Mojave Desert is right outside LA), covered with either vast solar energy farms (ugh) or favela-like urban hellholes.

The violence, in contrast with most modern action/sci-fi films, was for the most part mercifully quick, highly realistic and extremely brutal. I was particularly disturbed (in a way I should have been) by the murders of Coco and Lt. Joshi. Given how gentle Arrival was, it was interesting to see how well Villeneuve pulled this off.

Unlike some here, I enjoyed the soundtrack immensely, and thought the in-your-face synth treatment was very appropriate to the increased level of dystopia. It is, like the film itself, more brutal and therefore more appropriate for both the film and the majority of modern viewers.

All that said (sigh)...I didn't want or need so many direct references to the original, particularly the CG Rachel, which I thought was frankly not up to par with what is being done with some CG characters these days. I generally hate to criticize on the basis of "they could have done better" - Comic Book Guy level criticism really since I'm completely incapable of it myself - but I think we've all seen it done better. ILM does it better. Even having "Tears In Rain" over the ending was a bit jarring, because it brought me out of my willing suspension of disbelief, and I doubt I'm alone in this. So while it's "nice" to acknowledge the original, you have to ask the bigger question of what audience Villeneuve had in mind - people only marginally familiar with the original who can give themselves an "attaboy" for recognizing the references? Or a nod to we veterans of the original, as if maybe we expected it? Not sure, but did not need it, but overall loved the movie for what it was and will revisit it many times.

As for Ridley Scott and the possibility of merging the Alien and BR franchises, I don't even want to look that up on the web, it's so profoundly wrong. I hope like hell it isn't true, that nobody is even remotely entertaining the idea, because really, what utter Hollywood crap that would be. It makes me wonder anew whether he's suffering some kind of dementia issue if it's true, which first occurred to me when he said in an interview about Prometheus that "both NASA and the Vatican agree that we must be the result of some kind of alien intervention," or words to that effect. Ridley, say it ain't so, please tell me that you aren't reading the online ravings of borderline schizoids and assuming they represent actual information! I hope it's obvious that neither NASA or the Vatican (words fail me) have ever implied any such thing in their entire existences. It really threw me, but on the positive side helped form the basis for a new understanding: people in the entertainment industry are rarely, if ever, useful sources of information. Their enormous salaries and fame can make them think they are, and they often step far outside any reasonable boundary of their limited area of expertise to offer pronouncements on subjects they're completely ignorant about, but on the real side, um - no.

That's enough out of me, figured I was way overdue to say something here other than just "thanks" after years of enjoying this thread.

All the best, FiresOfOrc (now at about 70 views of BR and counting)

It's been like this since a big while. Everything has a cost... and this place is pretty huge I'm told. We might "squat" a few "clusters" on the main servers, but the place has been growing like the tower where all "dreamers" were kept dreaming a life in the Matrix. Any ad blocker will do really.

In a way if this place wasn't here with all of you this would have never have materialized.


Wanted to weigh in a bit on BR2049, which I very happily saw in a tiny theater with reclining seats so comfy I might have been at home. :)

I am going to watch it another time from the Blu-ray on the 4k screen and I hope you did catch the IMAX version.
Sadly over here in most part of Region 2 we were not allowed the luxury thought I managed the best seats every time I went!

In a way on the original I could imagine way more. In 2049 I got to see what I was left imagining and though it stole most of the magic away I liked the new approach to it.
Still I would have liked a longer cut and I am pretty sure they will be marketing also that to cash on the cult status 2049 has already approached.
Had to get at least 6 different versions to get a decent memorabilia of what I saw four times in the cinema.

Some of the versions I got are already selling at four times the price and though I do not like the trend of the collectible version that seems to be the way they are cashing on it since they were expecting way bigger cashing back after all the money the company has invested.

Soundtrack is all right. I liked it.
It was not Vangelis but I cannot pretend to date Miss Universe when I hang out with my girlfriend...
Perfection is something different. Near perfection is what make me appreciate everything else... though she doesn't spare me when I am caught admiring perfection every now and then... :)

I trust the next installment will not need to cite anything back off the original 1982 film.
I had the same feeling about The Blade Runner 2 novels where direct references to the movie where the de facto every other 10 pages... but they are artists. They know better than us soundtrack hackers at the end of the day. Aren't they? :)

They needed to bridge over the original and they came out with that... like rehashing every other Star Wars to make it into the first episode of the new saga... but we're just the guys buying the tickets to watch them fiddling with screenplays and everything else involved at the end of the day. The main difference is that we did see every other movie out there while they might have not. And we are more likely to know "better" sometime. :)

Something that still puzzle me is the fact that masked people went to pick up the replicant... but if they needed masks on because they were human... why everyone in the Las Vegas casino did not need to wear them including the dog?
Was not that whole area supposed to be off limits because of the dirty bomb?

The whole merging the Alien and BR franchises was a hoax. I really did not waste space on the the hd to save up references about that.

Let's see how Blade Runner Strikes Back will look like hopefully! ;)

Oh man... who would ever think that a Blade Runner thread would now be place for Hans Zimmer shit?
Oh dear, oh dear!

Hey all. I'm sure my name is not familiar. I've been off this site for a while now. So much going on.

I can't wait for those 4 disc's as well!

Question though, with all of the scores out there what you say are the better ones with less vocal noise and more music? I have most of the ones here and have given them a listening but really can't tell.

The Blade Runner 29th Anniversary Edition is the one that quickly springs to mind, but there were also the Blade Runner Restored/Remastered 2011 and the Blade Runner November 2011 versions as well.
The Blade Runner 2019 Edition and the Blade Runner - Silver Edition were quite sfx free too.

Unless Vangelis finally decides to release the real deal next year... our wishes might be better left to a Father Xmas' letter. :(

But somehow I am looking forward to 2019... and I am crossing my fingers! Not sure how do you guys feel about that! ;)

Help all lot

I hope so too, preferably either by La-La-Land Records or Intrada, but yeah. It's wishful thinking on my part, especially by either of those two labels. A much better 3 CD release incorporating the complete film score ("complete" being too much of a stretch, as there were numberous releases of the film itself over the years, haha!), plus the planned 1982 Polydor LP (unless that planned Polydor LP was, in fact, the one released in 1994 by East West records. Feel free to chime in on this, if I am mistaken).
