Vangelis - Blade Runner Trilogy (25th Anniversary Edition)

Product Description:

Ridley Scott's Blade Runner, with its apocalyptic depiction of LA in 2019, has become one of the most celebrated sci-fi releases of the 20th century. It's one of those films where all of the constituent parts - the set, the lighting, the characters, the sparse dialogue and of course the music - work uniquely together to produce a cult masterpiece.

The music has always been a key element of Blade Runner and there have been various versions of the soundtrack over the years, some `official' and some bootlegs. But they have all either been incomplete or have suffered from poor sound quality, until now.

Blade Runner Trilogy: 25th Anniversary is a 3CD set which - for the first time - puts all the pieces together, providing the complete music from the film and a lot more besides.

CD 1 features the original and remastered soundtrack as it first appeared in 1994, twelve years after the film was released.

The second CD contains all the remaining music from the film that did not appear on the original 1994 soundtrack, plus two bonus tracks (`One Alone' and `Desolation Path'). None of this material has been released before.

The third and final disc will be of real interest to Vangelis fans - as it contains an entire album of newly written material composed by Vangelis to mark the 25th anniversary of Blade Runner. The music is strong and flowing, and retains the dark, atmospheric sense of the original score. There are some intriguing spoken word contributions too, from Ridley Scott, Roman Polanski, Oliver Stone and a host of distinguished actors, personalities and world dignitaries.

Sounds fucking tits, but "spoken word contributions" sounds awful. I hope that's not what I think it is. Anyway, the Esper edition of Bladerunner is in my opinion the best way to hear this soundtrack but I'll definitely be buying this for christmas...

new vangelis in the style of blade runner? either will be amazing, or shit. hope its the first...

He did the whole album on a laptop with the Arturia CS80v

Do any of you Blade Runner Fans have

a track list via the chronological order they would be heard/ appear in the movie

of all 3 cds combined. (i know the 3rd cd technically not at all, but some of the titles seem to

point towards specfic scenes or characters?)

I don't know the movie well enough to do it.

would love your help.

cheers.

was this version of the soundtrack one without the dubbing from the movie?

It does have some soundtracking (do you like my owl... i have seen... there's a turtle on it's back etc)

rubin's descrip is pretty much on...

i must say when this stuff is good it's amazing.

when it's bad it's Kenny G bad/Yanni/John Tesh bad

(that sax has to go!)

but some of the tracks could be inserted in an FSOL album or Global Communication Album and

you wouldn't be able to pick which is which if you had never heard them before...

and written ten years before...

i havethis and its GOOOOOD

here's my best guess at a proper track order if you combined the 1st 2 cds from the recent release and the esper edition

if chronological as per their appearance in the movie. I didn't add the 3rd cd of "new" tracks...

anyone have corrections this was all "best guess"
