Richard Penna 3,672 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 That's how every expansion works, not just Powell's. It's very rare for them to contain anything that was done editorially for the film, so if there's a case where the editors remixed a cue and tracked it somewhere else, we're probably not going to get that version. And there have been some high profile recent examples, such as the film 'version' of Ripples from TLW being unavailable even on LLL's box because it's editorically created using a mix of the intended cue that we don't have.

You only know about the cue because you heard it on illegally obtained session leaks. So, therefore it MUST be included? Please correct me if I misinterpreted your claim. Sometimes cues that go unused in the film are included on original soundtrack albums! Prominent examples date all the way back to at least The Blue Max by Goldsmith, which had major highlight cues omitted from the film entirely, and replaced with tracked music (or horribly truncated). For a film music album, why does it matter what was USED in the film rather than what was WRITTEN AND RECORDED FOR the film? Your logic is the kind that supports that terrible "Ultimate Edition" of The Phantom Menace, exactly matching all the music in the film -- to a fault (with edits and omissions of recorded music). For a more recent example that I personally worked on, we can look at Varese's new Deluxe Edition of Lionheart from last year. Goldsmith's masterful score for that film is perhaps even more badly treated within it than The Blue Max decades before! Goldsmith wrote and recorded two back-to-back cues for the film which introduced the theme for the primary antagonist ("Bondage" and "The Black Prince"). But they were left off both original volumes of music from the film, and left out of the film itself. I only knew these cues existed because I researched and found them listed on a (legal) website: http://collections.new.oscars.org/Details/Archive/71302978 So I knew for sure these cues were written, but were they recorded? I searched far and wide, with many different people, but long story short: Doug Fake of Intrada had them because he was there at the original Lionheart sessions (immediately preceding the sessions for Intrada's new recording of Islands in the Stream) and he had made a reference copy for himself. They weren't in as high quality sound as Varese's original album masters, but once I heard the transfer of those cues I knew they MUST be included on the new edition -- they are INTEGRAL to the architecture of the score as Goldsmith originally conceived it, because without them the theme for the primary antagonist is first introduced in an action cue where it's jumbled in with a lot of other musical material. It isn't established on its own in straightforward guise right beforehand, as it should have been, before Goldsmith plays around with it in that action cue. And even though those two cues constitute less than five minutes of music, they are a very important five minutes of music and the whole score program absolutely would have been diminished without them, no matter that they didn't appear in the film (which by the way almost nobody saw anyway, so why would you care what was in the film Bruce?)

It was like that on the OST, and it's like that here. 2 hours ago, Trope said: Hello!

Jay 37,287 Posted May 28, 2022 Author Share Posted May 28, 2022 That quote from Powell about the album presenting the original cues as recorded, and not the last minute cues created at the dub, I interpreted to mean those cues were tracked pieces of existing cues edited together in unique ways to form "cues".

Trope 520 Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 I'm really enjoying all the new material on this album AND the remastered mix, although it is a shame that the score is not "truly" complete (in terms of extra post-dub material). Does everyone else hear a strange phasing issue on the final string chord in "At the Bank"? Approximately around 4:00 in that track. I noticed it's not on the original album release and would like to confirm that it's not an issue with my CD. It's also interesting to note that the tracks "Love Scene" and "Bourne Watches Kids Sleep" are nearly (if not completely) identical. I can't remember if this is the case in the movie.

Trope 520 Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 One final observation: It appears that the final track on the album, "Got Any ID?" has been transferred at the wrong sample rate, meaning it plays back slightly slower and pitched lower, compared to what it should be. This one was an easy catch, as the track segues into Extreme Ways in the movie, which begins in B minor. In the film, "Got Any ID?" is in B minor, to allow for a smooth transition between pieces. Check it out (around 1:20 in the video): To confirm this was the case, I dragged my 44.1kHz file of this track into Logic and converted the project to 48kHz and, voila: The track plays back at the correct speed and pitch, so it's not too much trouble to fix on your own. Even if you don't have the album, you can listen to the sample of this track on the Varèse website to compare with the film (if you can be bothered). This is the exactly the same thing that happened with the Prologue in John Williams' Hook soundtrack release (even down to the same key!). I do wonder how this got past whoever checks these things before albums release... enderdrag64, Yavar Moradi, Chewy and 4 others 1 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evanus 217 Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Some weird things going on with this release. The alternate version of "Bourne on Land" is a bit puzzling. The same track can be found in the leaked sessions from Supremacy, as a demo for "Morning Run". That makes more sense to me than it being an alternate version for a track in Identity, and I doubt that's actually the case. So it's a bit strange they included it here.

It is structured identically to "Morning Run", and it is obviously a demo (the strings are clearly samples). As has already been mentioned in this thread, it features the Supremacy theme, which had not yet been written for Identity (now confirmed by your find that this is indeed a demo for Supremacy).

OneBuckFilms 319 Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 I have to say, my assessment of this release shows only a couple of tweaks for my "digital ultimate version" ... - Pitch correct "Do You Have ID?" and combine with Extreme Ways (matching the movie). - Copy over Moby's Drum and Base Remix as Track 32. Aside from the pitch issue, and the inclusion of a demo for the opening of Supremacy, everything is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,287 Posted May 31, 2022 Author Share Posted May 31, 2022 So let me see if I understand this. The track on this album titled "Bourne On Land (Alternate Version) 1:55" is not in the film, was not on the OST album, and has never appeared on any leak of this film's score. It did, however appear in a leak of Supermacy's score, where it was titled "Morning Run (Demo) (1:51)". It matches the tone and feel of the Supremacy cue "Morning Run", and uses a the main theme of Supremacy's score, so therefore is more likely to truly be a "Morning Run" demo that accidentally ended up on this release, than an unused alternate for "Bourne on Land" in this score that didn't end up leaking until Supremacy's score leaked. However, there is no definitive proof either way Is that about right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
