I'll write a lot more about the latter track when I've finished the whole disc, but know that it's on there and is a beaut, many thanks to the original donor of the cues, I hope you'll be proud with what I've done with them !


Wow. I'm interested to see how many of these cues were you able to locate. I know the 'needle drop' album released a coupla years ago was missing a substantial portion.

Great stuff.


With a deeply reserved breath I'm pretty sure to have over 90% of the cues represented in this track. I needed some repetition and fillers used as necessary - you'll probably be able to notice where - though a number of omissions were to be found from other sources.

I've left it as a dialogue free track, so 75%+ of the running time is scored, the rest is silent. It seemed to work better that way and makes for an incredibly artistic yet unsettling midnight movie experience, I just wouldn't suggest watching this version first if you've never seen the film before - but I don't think that will be anyone in this thread

It certainly heightens the scares if you haven't seen the film for a while...
