Re: [yamahacs80] Blade Runner Im looking for these versions

2008-12-21 by Max Fazio

Hi.Are you looking for the original material or burned cdrs?
'Cause I own Gongo but never paid for it, it was a present that a friend of mine made me back in 1999, I won't sell it because it is a gift; anyway if you're looking for quality music stay into the legal releases; within  Blade Runner's monumental bootleg discography there are only two real worthy bootlegs: the first is the Gongo/OffWorld edition which has nothing new except for some tracks took off the famous cassette recorded back in 1982 while mixing the soundtrack for the cinema release, and it's awful and worthy only for the diehard fans (like I guess I am ;-) ) ; another one you can find it on the file sharing community and consists of some mp3 snippets of never heard on Gongo tracks (like Zhora's Dance, alternate Tales of the Future, Morning at bradbury), I believe it doesn't exist in any other form and it's quite easy to find (it's called "Blade Runner Suite" if my memory doesn't fail).
Stop, don't look elsewhere, all the bootlegs made outside of these are simply recompiled/remixed/processed versions of the same material, quite boring to me.
On the other hand I talked once to one of the guys involved into making the restoration process for the Ultimate Edition of the movie, he talked to me of about 4 hours of existing unreleased material not considering what we have on official cds which is laying into Warner's and Vangelis' vaults, enough to make anybody stop searching. Vangelis has been battling for 25 years to prevent Warner from profiting a single cent over his music (maybe they never paid him for his job!)......

  1994 Atlantic Vangelis Blade Runner - the first "official" Vangelis 
  release containing nearly an hour of music with a running time of 
  57:53, most of which contained newly composed themes and dialog 
  samples from the film mixed into selections of the film's soundtrack 
  cues comprised of the following 12 tracks:

  1. Main Titles (3:42)
  2. Blush Response (5:47)
  3. Wait for Me (5:27)
  4. Rachel's Song (4:46)

  The 1993 Off-World Edition bootleg featuring nearly all of the film's 
  original soundtrack including the John William's composed Ladd Company 
  logo from the film and source music for the "Bicycle Riders"(aka 
  "Harps of the Ancient Temples") by Gail Laughton and "If I didn't 
  Care" by Jack Lawrence, but with less than acceptable CD quality sound 
  but features over 72:42 worth of original un-edited music from the film:

  1. Ladd Company Logo (0:24) John Williams
  2. Main Titles and Prologue (4:03)

  18. Trailer and Alternate Main Titles (1:39) Robert Randles

  The 1995 Gongo Edition - an import distributed in Romania was a 
  slightly better quality version of the Off-World edition without the 
  trailer music. This release omits the 1939 recording of "If I Didn't 
  Care" which originally appeared in an early workprint of Blade Runner, 
  but was replaced by the Don Percival song "One More Kiss, Dear" in the 
  final version. Also includes "Blimpverts" the Japanese female blimp 
  vocals.

  The 2003 2-Disc Esper Edition - features ambient film soundtrack 
  including music and effects engineered from the ambient Dolby surround 
  sound channels with occasional rear-channel effects mixed in but 
  retains all of the previously unreleased and unavailable score for 
  almost the full 2 running hours of the film.

  Esper Edition Disc-1
  1. Prologue And Main Titles (3:54)
  2. Leon's Voight Kampff Test (1:09)

  5. Blush Response (5:43)
  6. Wait For Me (5:12)
  7. Deckard Meets Rachel (1:36)
  8. Rachael's Song (4:20)
  9. Tales Of The Future (4:53)
  10. Bicycle Riders (2:10)
  11. Chew's Eye Lab (1:15)
  12. Memories Of Green (5:35)

  Los Angeles, November 2019 Edition - also released in 2003 was mostly 
  ambient sound and atmosphere again extrapolated from the Dolby rear- 
  channel mix and padded with additional music taken from the Westwood 
  Blade Runner (PC) videogame.
