The Official Jóhann Jóhannsson Thread

Sigh. Can't wait for all the latest expanded scores to be released via NFT. 

 

I am so damn tired of NFTs.

[Faleel 5,348]

NFTs are not as Nifty as some seem to think

I am surprised there isn't more talk here about the debut of his BR2049 music.  Wasn't that a holy grail for some of you?

I've had trouble getting those moving, GIF-like images (or whatever the hell they are) to play the music contained within.

[Jay 37,361]

Well I think the 15 second clip embedded in my post is that they've released so far

Jóhann Jóhannsson's estate is releasing unreleased music of his of the BLADE RUNNER 2049 ost exclusively through NFTs

Did anything ever happen with this? I was looking around to see if whoever had bought them had reuploaded them online for everyone to listen to but I can't even find confirmation they were ever sold at all. The announcement tweet about them is now deleted, the foundation page is empty, and the only articles I can find talking about it are those from May announcing it was happening

[enderdrag64 624]

Update: I think they silently cancelled plans for the sale. Honestly I think that's a good thing. I do hope the music is made available to listen to eventually but this wasn't the way to do it.

 

Technical details for those who care:

Spoiler

This is the etherscan wallet that was going to do the auction:

https://etherscan.io/txs?a=0x14D560c8769853cf94B5254F0A0EFF6fe21D39de

All the foundation auction reservations were cancelled and the tokens were burned a little over two weeks ago.

It appears the way they had intended to release it was to do a release of four nfts for each unreleased cue, each in a different color. For whatever reason some of them are gone now but some of them are still up so you can see what they would have looked like. Unfortunately I don't think the links to the music are public, even if those are still active. Here are the links to the nfts I found that weren't deleted yet:

 

1. Flight to LA
   1. Purple: https://etherscan.io/nft/0xb5447f0de37e85ca4d10bd51ff057e514685860b/1
   2. Orange: https://etherscan.io/nft/0xd47769a16f28c1aa0ccdaf0ce15e129dbbc9db7a/1

In other news, I managed to glean the names of four of the five cues that were going to be released this way:

1. Flight to LA
2. The Rain
3. Voxton 4 Marketplace
4.  
5. K’s Horse

Well, at least before the videos disappeared from the Internet, I had time to download them

Very sad that the BR2049 score never got a decent release, but hope dies last! I'm still very curious about which project the Gold Dust belongs to, because now it's definitely not Blade Runner 2049.

[Jaaaackified 81]

As a matter of fact, Johannsson's unused score for Mother! is actually logged in some copyright databases. 

Here are some cues that I collected from GEMA (in alphabetical order apparently):

 

Adam's Rib

Basement Linens

Glass Smash (Hidden Cellar)

Grace is Left Alone (Brothers Arrive)

Grace Shut Door (Brothers Arrive)

Killing Fields

Kitchen Dizzy Spell

Opening (Trees)

Poem

Rave

Tincture #1

Tincture #3

Wound Reappears (Hidden Cellar)

Wow, this is unbelievable. Grace appears in the titles again, as under Gold Dust video. I need to rewatch the movie, because I don't remember all the details exactly, but the "brothers" (Cain and Abel) were definitely there. So did Adam. Maybe Gold Dust is the score for this movie after all. Thanks for this!
