Description:

Recording receives a value of 3 from 5. Vangelis Blade Runner music gets a A+. I absolutely love this kind of music. It is music that seems to be tailor or custom designed to suit my taste. I say the same for some Bryan Ferry Albums like for example Mamouna, Taxi, Boys and Girls and Avalon. These remastered Bryan Ferry albums have excellent clear and dynamic sound. Unlike them, Vangelis recording is on the weak side, dynamically and also in clarity. However, for me the music is amazing and that more than makes up for the average recording.

This soundtrack was recently made available on Hybrid SACD by Audio Fidelity. I have not heard the SACD but I would imagine the recording should be far better than it is on the 1994 CD that I listen to. Available for sale at vendor Musicdirect.

Conclusion:

The film Blade Runner was amazing, receives a A+ from me and so does the film music. A+.
