From the maker :
So as not to get lost in the BR soundtrack threads, I’ve made a dedicated thread for this. Worked on over a three year period, this is my reconstruction of the Blade Runner score as it was used in the Final Cut, without dialogue or sound effects. At the end of 2017 I released a beta version of this project, titled the 35th Anniversary Edition. After more work to improve the edits, I present to you the final version, the 2019 Edition. This is every cue as heard in the movie, essentially an isolated score version of the film, including a number of cues that have been unavailable in complete or correct form.
I could not have accomplished this without generous help from DC and Calidoran, both of whom provided me with the raw material for much of this work. Especially useful were the surround channels from half a dozen international blu-ray releases of the film, from which I was able to extract music that hasn’t been available previously. DC also graciously offered to master the audio, to give it a little extra polish.
I also want to express my gratitude to everyone who made compilations of this music before me. Your work provided me with a guide, without which I would have been lost.
I started on this project out of curiosity and it slowly became an obsession, and along the way I believe I have corrected several errors featured on previous bootlegs. The cue typically referred to as “Roy Enters the Bradbury,” for instance, actually corresponds to the scene “Show Me What You’re Made Of.” The actual cue for “Roy Enters The Bradbury” is a reprise of “Pris Meets JF Sebastian” without the overlay of Ogi No Mato. The Japanese tracks, thanks to DC, are now correctly identified, and I’ve placed them where they appear in the film.
As a bonus, I’ve compiled two discs of full length, alternate and unused tracks, and there’s a pdf of notes on the tracks where clarification is needed.
Thanks to everyone for your patience. I know some of you have been waiting a long time for this project. I hope you enjoy it.
