Anyone ever find where Focuspuller moved his project info to?
Anyone ever find where Focuspuller moved his project info to?
I read up about some of the sound cues that were missing… Found this might be of use I am not sure.
Happy 2019! I was the one who started that blog, and I’ve updated it with original cue titles from the BMI repertoire
Happy New Year!
Well is there any chance this project can be completed by you?, or are you in the team with the OP or original project?
I wish I was working with the OP! Unfortunately, I am not
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy
Hello everyone. Its 2019 and I’ve done my (almost) yearly check on this thread. I wonder if this ever did make it to Facebook? And I wonder, even, if its still an active project? its incredible to believe that its been 11 years since the post by focuspuller. It would be amazing if this was a real thing and came out this year. we can but hope …
even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day…
i think its time to complete the project as a tribute to vangelis since he died
focuspuller was last active less than a month ago. So It would be really nice if he would say something on this project. Several Blade Runner soundtrack projects have come out, but none looked like his promised track list so to my knowledge it has never been finished.

Yeah, considering that, AFAIK, the project was never moved to Facebook or another platform

Greetings everyone!
Before I get into the status update of this project, I would like to give some mentions.
Firstly, thanks to everyone at originaltrilogy.com for allowing me to host this project here from the beginning! Second, I would like to thank everyone who has followed this project and who have also been very helpful in many different ways over the years!
Now, where are we? It’s been years since my last update. I did not start a Facebook page for this project, and with very few exceptions, I haven’t posted anything or even visited this forum throughout these years.
Most of that time was spent living, working, and raising a family. There have also been some personal losses, most notably during the last couple of years with COVID.
In the middle of all that though, the work on this project continued, even at a snail’s pace. Recording keyboard parts, editing, a few seconds here a few seconds there, etc.
In the interest of some disclosure, I will add that I went through the process of looking at the viability of releasing a commercial version of this project. Without getting into any of the business or legal aspects, I will simply restate that the goal of this project was always to release a as complete as possible version of the Blade Runner soundtrack, and I pursued a particular avenue to achieve this. In regards to that, negotiations were not successful. Though this is not the end of that particular story, due in part to the passing of Vangelis and other factors.
That’s all I can say about it at the present time, but in a nutshell, if said commercial release actually becomes a reality, then that will be the form in which this intended project goes out.
On the other hand, if that door closes, then it is my intention to follow my original plan for release.
Let me be clear, this project is not in limbo or abandoned, far from it. What remains to be seen is what form the release will take, but it WILL be released.
In the meantime, while I have a busy schedule, I will remain in contact with more frequent updates at least in some capacity. In the coming days, I will return to releasing some tracks as samples to preview. I may also create discord channel so we can all connect there.
This indeed has been a long journey, and I’m grateful to all of you who have taken it with me. But one way or another, this project WILL be finished!
And on a closing note, while have I missed the chance to release this on or before November 2019, I’ll try to release this before 2049. 😉
Hello! Great to hear from you! Such amazing news 😃 in one regard, and sad news on the other 😦 Sorry for your loss.
I’ve never given up hope on this project and would still check the thread from time to time. So, SO looking forward to this release when its finished. The best things come to those who wait 😃 Btw, Its cassius76 here. My old account expired or got locked because I forgot my password. Anyway, new icon and slightly different name, but its me! I just re-read the entire thread and forgot I’d contributed to this in a minor way with the art. Funny how time has flown so fast.

Good news I look forward to the Update on this, sounds pretty exciting. Sorry for your loss over recent times.
Bumping for another update.
Bumping for another update.
I’d love to know, too. Thanks!
The OP has obviously had a very busy 17.5 years trying to find time to work on this.
To alleviate our waiting, I have spent two weeks putting together “The Complete Blade Runner” an 8 CD soundtrack collection box set using the highest quality sources and blu-ray audio rips which I then took into my studio to remaster at 24 bit 48 kHz in order to subtly increase clarity, detail and analog warmth.

The sound is pristine and has a lovely analog warmth due to me running it through the following series of processors with very subtle but transformative sonic detailing:
SSL 4000 E desk >
Black Box Analog Design HG-2 >
Noise Reduction (removing hiss but no high-end information) >
Capitol Mastering Valve Compressor >
Manley Variable Mu Limiter >
Studer A800 tape
I also designed box cover art insert (outside and inside) with a folding booklet for tracklisting and source details.
