Vangelis' Music

Hey deck, where'd you get the bootleg tracks? Are they MP3s? I only got 2 bootleg tracks, 'The Prodical Son Brings Death' and 'Blade Runner Main Titles'

I use Gnotella, which is a file sharing utility - it allows you to search other peoples PC's for shared files and then download them - a bit like napster, I suppose. There are other similar programs, such as iMesh and Bearshare.<BR><BR>BUT - as far as I'm concerned - if the music is available commercially then I will buy the original and give the artist their due rewards - I bought the Vangelis album several years ago and I bought the American Orchestra version this month (after I had downloaded and listened to a couple of tracks from Gnotella). <BR><BR>I hope Warner release a more 'complete' collection of the movie soundtrack (to coincide with 20th Anniversary?) but I don't think this is on the cards...<BR><BR>I have so far found twelve 're-mixes' of the Blade Runner main theme:<BR><BR>I've got two of the tracks for this album and I like them a lot:<BR><BR>CD Single: Andora - Blade Runner<BR>[563 223-2]<BR><BR>Track Listing:<BR><BR>Blade Runner - Kai Tracid Short Mix (3.50) <BR>Blade Runner - Tandu Short Mix (3.42) <BR>Blade Runner - Original Short Mix (3.10) <BR>Blade Runner - Kai Tracid Remix (7.37) <BR>Blade Runner - Tandu Remix (8.59) <BR>Blade Runner - Original Mix (6.48) <BR>Blade Runner - Silent Breed Remix (7.37) <BR>Blade Runner - Steve Baltes Remix (4.48) <BR> <BR><BR>Released 1999 on What's Up?! / Polydor Zeitgeist GmbH (Germany).

Wow - just typed 'Blade Runner' into <!-- BBCode u2 Start --><A HREF="http://www.cddb.com" TARGET="_blank">www.cddb.com</A><!-- BBCode u2 End --> and got 228 hits - looks like there's a lot more Blade Runner music than I thought...<BR><BR>_________________<BR><!-- BBCode Start --><IMG SRC="http://www.deckard.worldonline.co.uk/filez/BR26354.gif" BORDER="0"><!-- BBCode End --><BR><BR><!-- BBCode Start --><B>The difference between the impossible and the possible is equal to the difference between today and tomorrow.</B><!-- BBCode End --><BR><BR><font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Deckard BR26354 on 2001-10-31 20:24 ]</font>

Goto: <!-- BBCode u2 Start --><A HREF="http://www.gnotella.com" TARGET="_blank">www.gnottella.com</A><!-- BBCode u2 End --><BR><BR>Remember, most of the mp3's on the net are probably illegal copies of copyrighted material - if you download copyrighted stuff and like it, then go and buy it or else delete it from your PC - I'm sure most people don't, though - like I said earlier, I only keep stuff if I an original isn't available to buy - you make your own mind up.<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>

Hey I'm new here too <IMG SRC="/forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif"><BR>I have vangelis' cd on constant repeat in my car, so I must have heard it ... hundreds of times. The atmosphere of this cd is very relaxing when driving long distances at night.<BR>my favourite song would be "Rachaels song" I guess. they only one I DON'T like is "On more kiss dear" which I feel destroys the atmosphere on the cd... but I can always skip that one <IMG SRC="/forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

I LOVE 'One More Kiss, Dear'!!! I like the way that it reflects Blade Runner's film noir roots.<BR>'One more kiss, dear<BR>one more sigh.<BR>Only this, dear<BR>is goodbye.'

The Ink Spots track "If I didn't care..." is also very much of the same ilk - I like it lot.

and I want it alot!

Sorry Lobo... I must say I enjoy "One More Kiss,Dear" too. But, I <!-- BBCode Start --><I>really</I><!-- BBCode End --> like the version in the game better...when Ray is at the bar in Animoid Row. Love this woman's voice. I used to go into my KIA and turn down all the sound except for the music and crank it up ("One more time,love...For the old times")ahhh how I can get so nostalgic over a video game. Incidently,DeckardBR26354...another tune of the same ilk intros the `97 PC game FALLOUT:a post-nuclear role-playing game. Don't know the title tho.<BR>Oh, and to adress Centauro > I think this CD IS the original soundtrack with some extra songs added that weren't on it before (correct me if I'm wrong people). It's possible our booklets are different Centauro,as I know you reside outside the U.S.<BR><!-- BBCode Quote Start --><TABLE BORDER=0 ALIGN=CENTER WIDTH=85%><TR><TD><font size=-1>Quote:</font><HR></TD></TR><TR><TD><FONT SIZE=-1><BLOCKQUOTE> "Most of the music contained in this album originates from recordings I made in London in 1982,whilst working on the score for the film Blade Runner.Some of the pieces contained will be known to you from the Original Soundtrack of the film,whilst others are appearing here for the first time."

My Blade Runner CD has a sticker on the front that says "Vangelis' Original Soundtrack - Plus bonus tracks".<BR><BR>This is one of my most played CD's and my favourite song is "Love Theme".

I tend to favour "End Titles", although I love all the tracks on the soundtrack. However, pay close attention to the music which plays in the background whilst Deckard is headed to Abdul bin-Hassan's shop after leaving the Cambodian fish lady's stall. That is quite a nice piece as well.

Has anyone got the lyrics by any chance to Damask Rose?

Superb Soundtrack. Wish he included 'The Prodigal Son Brings Death' though, love that cue in he movie.
