That's today's purchase - picked it up used for 8 bucks. So far I like it a lot. Albedo 0.39 is amazing - makes me feel like I'm at a planetarium tripping my brain out. I was looking for those Yes reissues but I didn't see them anywheres... |

Christ for a moment I thought you wrote Best of Yanni... |

I own his Bladerunner soundtrack, and I like it a lot... but you know, when I first listened to the song Metropolis by Kraftwerk (which I didn't hear till after Bladerunner) I thought it sounded exactly like the End Titles Theme on Bladerunner... so I thought Vangelis kinda ripped it off of Kraftwerk... maybe I'm wrong, but I think they sound very much alike! |

Heh, that's funny - Yanni did a concert at the Acropolis (probably more than once) and a few years later Vangelis did a show there, with opera singers and orchestras and choirs and such... I came across it on PBS while flipping channels and my first thought was "man, Yanni's looking old, and his music is better than I remembered..." Anyhoo the Vangelis acropolis show was pretty good - I think Jessye Norman was there, can't remember fo sho - Funkmaster, I also have the bladerunner soundtrack - it's great but I wish I had the original - he re-recorded the material and added some songs. Apparently there was a super-limited edition of the original at one point, with more of the incidental music. I'd like to have the track with the clattery chimes when the bicyclists drive past in the rain. |

the only thing I hate about the Bladerunner soundtrack is that stupid song that is totally out of place right in the middle... it ruins the whole flow... but other then that the music is quality... I think Teapot might've said once that he had a limited edition of the soundtrack... maybe he has the one you're thinking of... |

I never got the knack of running in slow motion - the air must be too thin here. |

He had to beat Clapton in a fistfight for that title. |

I have bladerunner and 1492 soundtracks. they came together for only 20 dollars. vangelis is very cool, and i became addicted to the bladerunner music after playing the video game. i think that makes me the biggest nerd in here. NEEEEEEEEEERRRRDDD! |

not really... you only have 13 points... there are a lot bigger nerds then you here, including me! ;) |

I had no idea there was any other edition of the Blade Runner soundtrack... now I'm pissed off. |
||||||||
|

|
damn the Bladerunner soundtrack really is nice... always takes me away to atmosphere of the movie! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it is very nice... *sigh* its playing in the other room... makes me feel sad sometimes. |
||||||||

Yup.. one of my favourite pieces of music, the soundtrack. Love Theme is truly beautiful. That saxophone is almost heartbreaking. |

my personal favourite is bladerunner blues. as i mentioned i used to play the computer game of bladerunner. and everytime your character went to the balcony of his apartment that music would play. i used to go out there just to listen to it Oh i also have a warning maybe for ppl only in australia. but there is a 'bladerunner' soundtrack floating around the stores, but its bad. its reworked by the new los angeles orchestra or some bullshit. its a shocker. i got it accidentally and i hate it. just a warning |

Hm, turns out the "limited edition" was actually a . If anyone ever finds it on slsk, let me know! |

memories of green is that track that will always stand out to me... |

i cant understand how my old cassette would have been a bootleg?? the music was slightly differant... but better than the 1994 release... but then again, i would have been about 8 years old... so maybe my fond memories wouldnt be as fond if i heard it now... would still love to hear it again tho for sure. |

Best of Vangelis is the Bladerunner soundtrack. |
||||||||
|
|

No way,. You guys should get ANTARTICA, it's a movie that Vangelis scored about the same era as Blade Runner. When you hear the main titles you go "wow that from that movie?" Everybody remembers that super cool Vangelis theme. It feels the same as Blade Runner, but switch the sci-fi mood to chill cold atmospheric ambient. Its a great CD, and CD stores always have it really cheap like 10$. |

Heyyyyy I'll check that out. I'm surprised Marlowe hasn't been talking it up. |

Ive always loved the bladerunner soundtrack. On hearts of space, they did a one hour retrospective of his musical career, i loved that one too. |

I was hoping someone would say that. |
