Blade Runner – End Titles by Vangelis [Cryonaut Tribute Cover]
Blade Runner was released in 1982, when I was 10 years old, but I didn't actually see the film until I was well into my teens. And even though at that age I didn't fully appreciate the story yet, the movie still made a huge impression on me, not only for the breathtaking visuals, but musically as well. Vangelis' iconic score was perfectly matched to the bleak, but mesmerising dystopia of future Los Angeles. I fell in love with the film, but even more with the soundtrack, and particularly the End Titles final track.
End Titles was one of my first exposures to the beautiful blending of silky strings with arpeggiated synthesizer patterns. And though I probably wasn't aware of it at the time, that track would take root in my mind and go on to influence much of the music I make today, which is laden with plenty of synth arpeggios, and just as many orchestral elements, especially strings.
For this piece, I wanted to pay proper tribute to the original arrangement of the End Titles theme, but then advance it into new territory by adding a more pronounced beat, shifting the key here and there, and even bringing a dash of the epic Opening Titles melody into play toward the end.
The video is a straightforward homage to all of the wonderful cinematography and characters of the movie. Of course I don't own the rights to any of it, and all the rights belong to their respective owners. I haven't monetized this video, nor do I want any money because of it. It is simply my humble way of paying tribute to one of the great influences in my life, and of saying thank you to its director, cinematographer, actors, and crew, as well as to composer, Vangelis and to conceptual designer Syd Mead, both of whose influence is saturated through every fibre of this film. Thank you so much for all you have given to the world.

Download the high quality MP3 for free at www.CryonautMusic.com I spent much of my late teens and early 20s listening to progressive rock, and Genesis quickly became a huge influence on my musical tastes (part of my sacred three prog-rock pillars, along with Rush and Yes). Dodo/Lurker, off their 1981 album, ABACAB, is one of my all-time favourite Genesis tracks. It twists and turns, taking the ...

At one point, the...

Kinda groovy when I set it to loop for a bit, but it sounded nothing like anything resembling a full track. More of a musical sketch to see how certain instruments and patterns fit together. Much of my music begins t...

Download the NEW ALBUM for FREE at www.CryonautMusic.com Back in 2014, I had just upgraded to the new Logic Pro X and was playing around with the new built-in arpeggiator. I soon became inspired by a particular sequence I discovered. This became the foundation for "Halcyon", which grew quickly and held my attention for many hours at a time. There's definitely a Boards of Canada influence at wor...

Download the NEW ALBUM for FREE at www.CryonautMusic.com I was inspired to create this track after watching a number of space shuttle launch videos. Amazing to think of how far we've come since the 1950's and what yet lies ahead for us. I've always been a big fan of humankind's endeavours into space, regardless of which country or initiative is behind them. And I think that such efforts to expl...
Cryonaut - Distant Signals (Chapter 1)
Переглядів 4355 років тому
Download the NEW ALBUM for FREE at www.CryonautMusic.com The idea for this track actually came about as an offshoot of an earlier track, The Voyager. It borrows the tempo, one or two beats, and some of the same instruments. And so I thought it might be cool to set up a 'sister' track to that piece. As things progressed, I discovered there was even more tangential material in The Voyager I could...

Download the NEW ALBUM for FREE at www.CryonautMusic.com This tune sprung to life when I discovered Logic Pro's chord trigger feature, allowing me to play a full chord by pressing just one key. The four chord sequence that became the foundation of this track became easy to pull together when I only had to plunk around with single keys. It's doubtful I would have stumbled upon this sequence by p...

Download the high quality MP3 for free at www.CryonautMusic.com 14 years ago I fell in love with a video game. And this remix is my musical love letter of sorts to Warren Spector and the team of people at Ion Storm whose effort, imagination and eerily prophetic vision created what is, to me, the best game of all time - Deus Ex. This 'cyberpunk adventure' appeals to me in many ways: the FPS/RPG ...

Boards of Canada - BOCUMA / ROYGBIV [Cryonaut Extended Cover]
Starts out as a straight remix of one of my favourite video game tunes, and then it turns... beautiful.
The conversation ruined it. Too much. A very short snippet would've been okay. Thid became just distracting from the music.
Otherwise excellent.
Its a real shame you haven't uploaded anything in a while, your music is some of the best. Keep coming back even after all these years!
I’ve said in the past that the soundtrack is half the movie. I like this cool cover. You jazzed it up a bit.
In fact, I liked the film principally because of the soundtrack
One of my favorite tracks to have playing while coding
I play this almost daily, Better than original.
great work
Wow, what a perfect tribute!!
I LOVES IT !
👍👍
"It's too bad she won't live! But then again, who does?"
Is true
This is amazing! Really like the arrangement and the sounds are super punchy.
It's too bad she won't live.........but then again who does.
I really love the high energy of this track! 🤩 Reminds me a lot of Mannheim Steamroller! 🥰
This Tribute is *incredible*! 🤩 Immediate sub - and I've been listening to this tribute cover and your other original works over and over and over! 🥰 This along with a number of your other compositions is going on my synthwave/cyberpunk playlist as inspiration while I work on a little sci-fi comic that I make just for fun. 😄 I am so glad that I have discovered your work - thank you so much for posting it for the world to see! 😁
What an outstanding tribute. Im in awe!
I love this movie. One of my favorites.

😊😅.. 5:09
The magic happens after 3 minutes: The music leaves the restraints of the original version and sets out to a newer and fresher version of the BR End Titles. At this point I love it.
Βαγγέλη σ αγαπωωωω!!!!!πεφωτισμένος!!!!!!
Игра достойная ремейка - уровня ремейка resident evil 4 !!!!!!
BoC fans and those inspired by BoC are the most beautiful people on earth. Facts.
BoC is awesome. Cryonaut is awesome. Truth.
WTF! To say this was brilliant is to call Everest a hill.
ブレード・ランナー、当時リドリースコット監督らが銀座・新宿などへ取材に来たらしいですね。 日本へ支持・リスペクトするのなら、歓迎します。
Came across this last year. Still fire it up every now and then. Good job...
🥸🎧📲💕💞🩷💖❤️🔥
I love this so much. Been listening for several years now. For me, it's an anthem for happy summer forest trips.
Yes😮
I have listened to this remix for years. Its so good.
Wow, thank you! I'm glad you keep coming back! :)
Ultra Mega Cool! ( ╹▽╹ )
Thank you!
MASTERPIECE.
Wow! Thank you so much!!! :)
Hey Ben, we've chatted here and there over the years - though I have a new YT name. Are you allowing people to use your music in our UA-cam videos? I'd love to do that and offer you a shoutout in my video(s). Looking forward to your reply. Maybe when/if my channel takes off, could lead to more exposure for you too.
Hey there, Mike! Nice car, BTW! Yeah, I have no problem with you using one of my original tracks for your videos. Just include a credit to me somewhere in the video or in the description, if you could be so kind! Thanks!
Maravilloso film, de antología, la he visto más de 300 veces y siempre encuentro un detalle nuevo que antes no vi, esta nueva mezcla me hizo erizar la piel, hermosas notas, hermosa música, muchas gracias Cryonaut, eres un genio!!!
¡Vaya, muchas gracias! ¡Me alegra que te guste! :)
Great tribute to a fantastic film, cast and actors, all involved have every right to be very proud indeed.
Thank you. They certainly created a timeless classic.
@@CryonautMusic Totally agree I never tire rewatching it,I see new aspects every time I watch it ❤️
Fantastic! Very unique version of this killer song. It gets new life here! Abacab is the best album with Phil Collins singing imho.
Thank you so much! I agree, Abacab is one of my favorites as well! :)
This rocks!
Thank you!
...sometime between 1992 and 1995, can't really remeber exactly, my father got a job as a cab driver, for a fancy Romanian hotel. He was, as most east europeans back then, very curious, anxious to find and discover the new era, what happens in the west, what music do the westerners play, and why! He met a lady that gave him a casette, one with the Vangelist and another one with Bob Marley.(i mean, a completely bizzare combination) Very strange choice i would think, but then again... This made a tremendous impact on me: i remember listening to vangelist and bob marley, and asking my self - what is this? It was very, i mean, extremely different music than what i was listening back then. Strange and curious times! Very strange But then again, i met 2 of the most capable and loving human. beings of that century!
Hey, much of my teenage years were spent listening to Iron Maiden, Steely Dan, and ABBA. Good music is good music, and I think it's great when a person can experience and appreciate so many different genres. :)
You turned it into the best mysterious synth wave i have ever heard.
Haha, thank you! :)
As a kid growing up in the 60s and 70s this was my future. I want it back!!
Yeah, where's my jetpack already? I'm still optimistic that we'll achieve some form of utopia one day, but who knows how long that might take...
The layering of the JC and Morpheus dialogue over the song reminds me alot of the early releases of the bladerunner soundtrack. That all had some dialogue over it
Really nice !
Hey, thanks!
Freaking ducking great!! Loved it! :)
Thank you so much! :)
Meiner Meinung nach der beste Remix. Fängt vollständig die Atmosphäre ein. Super geil!
Vielen Dank! :)
22JAM2024 - Outstanding job this. And talk about save the best for last. Heck yeah, we absolutely should have an observation deck and hotel rooms built on a single peak in the Grand Canyon. Only one though. Think of how truly awesome that would be. And all the proceeds would go towards helping maintain natural habitat. But we gotta stop hating on each before we can focus on doing something spectacular. Hold fast, humanity. We are being tested.
Superb new arrangement!! Thanks a lot!!
You're very welcome - glad you enjoy it!
I love it ! Better than the original to my ears ! Congrats, you've done a wonderful job ! I would like to hear more of your remixes
Thank you so much! I am working on a few new remixes, so stay tuned!
It's excellent, great, a masterpiece and on top of that... I like it!
Haha, thanks so much! :)

I complain the Genesis don't be proud of ABACAB album. In my opinion, it was theyr bravest album and full of good songs. This and EP 3 X 3, and "Three Sides Live" form a unique sonic experience. Really unique.
Amazing!
Thank you! :)
