If you liked the movie & you liked the soundtrack, then you have to get
this. Vangelis has done a excellent job on this one. The bonus material
and the 3rd CD BR 25 with new ideas are all excellent.

People are not going to be clamoring to get out in to the street, jumping for joy and proclaiming that the god-of-synthesizers is back at his game. Those days for Vangelis, since the mid-70's, have sadly passed. Vangelis seems to be past the period of experimentation and is oddly enough rehashing former glories. Which is strange coming from an artist who has said in numerous (and I mean numerous) interviews that he hates repeating himself. And this is not to mention the numerous (and I mean numerous) sports themes and Olympic related events he has coordinated after that little running movie he won an Oscar for. And the beaucoup "remastered" compilation CD's he has authorized. For someone who doesn't repeat himself, Vangelis sure repeats himself.
But fear not, not all of this is bad. It's a pleasure to have new Vangelis music and this release, particularly the third "new" CD, certainly delivers. In fact, if I didn't know any better, it would appear that Vangelis is using the "Bladerunner" platform to release some entirely new music that (despite a few recurring melodic motiffs) essentially has nothing to do with "Bladerunner". So, the controversy continues (are you reading the other reviews?)!
The second CD is surprisingly ambient and appears to be a lot of backing tracks segued together. Which, again, is not a bad thing. It's nice to hear Vangelis spreading his musical palette, without all that bombastic melody getting in the way. Remember, that this man used to do such strange works as "See You Later" and "Beaubourg".
So, sadly no new ground sprung here, but certainly some pleasant music sure to please Vangelis fans.
Free Music Review: Temas de un clasico
Hit: 4 Stars
Esta colección de tres discos, editada para conmemorar el 25 aniversario del Estreno de la Pelicula de Blade Runner, es un trabajo muy bien logrado por Vangelis, que se manifiesta en una obras que refleja de manera excelente la atmosfera futurista y obscura de la cinta. Y sobre todo, a partir de el crea variaciones que toman senderos originales, para explorar el mundo que es insinuado por las imagenes de la pelicula. Es decir Vangelis retrata musicalmente a la creación del director Ridley Scot, pero no se contenta con ello, profundiza para hacer sus aportaciones y enriquecer la obra de arte, de manera que estos CD cobran vida propia tomando caminos paralelos a donde se inspirarón.
