4.0 out of 5 stars Good CD, look elsewhere if you want the techno, September 16, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Blade: Original Motion Picture Score (Audio CD)

Wake up, people- this is a film score. that means that you get some kick a** music but none of the techno. A lot of people have asked about techno songs from the movie, and I will help if I can- the bloodbath song is, of course, Confusion by New Order, and as another reviewer said the music Frost is listening to in the archives is Call and Response by Source Direct. I have heard that the bar scene (with the japanese school girls) is Ah, Singapore by Shonen Knife but I have not found the right mix yet- anyone know where to look? The first song from the end credits is Southside Reverb's "Go Get On it". If anyone has info on the bar song or any other songs email me at [e-mail] Even if you just want the techno, buy this CD anyway, it has some good stuff.

3.0 out of 5 stars A little repetitive, August 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Blade: Original Motion Picture Score (Audio CD)

The score was actually allright. Most of the tracks sounded the same but there were some cool beats. Those of you looking for the blood bath music in the beginning aren't gonna find it here.

4.0 out of 5 stars This is the Film Score, not the Pop Soundtrack [20 bit HDCD], October 4, 2001

To all those who are using your reviews as bulletin board messages to find the pop songs from the film: GO COMPLAIN ON THE "POP SOUNDTRACK" PAGE, NOT HERE. THIS IS THE SCORE. To everyone else: this is a unique, neo-gothic electronic/symphonic film score. I've never really heard anything quite like it, and it was perfect for the film. My only complaint is it could have been longer with more variation. Most scores are actually much longer than what's used on the film, so I suspect there was plenty of written material that simply wasn't fully produced. Isham should have added some extras for this release.
