The version for sale this last weekend is the second release from TDI. The first, from 1997, is much rarer, but the second was originally released as part of the 'Millennium Booster' box in late 1999. The difference between them is only the artwork IIRC.tdream4ever wrote:Whats the story on the CD soundtrack "The KEEP" TDI that was being sold at the London show? Is this a special edition release?
The track Heritage Survival is an awesome slice of FFS period TD and as far as I'm aware isn't available elsewhere.billythefish wrote:The version for sale this last weekend is the second release from TDI.

The TDI music was remastered and remixed from what is heard on the film soundtrack, and there is quite a lot of material missing. I love the album though and it has some of my all-time faves on it.
Heritage Survival is a Classic - without question IMHOChris Monk wrote:The track Heritage Survival is an awesome slice of FFS period TD and as far as I'm aware isn't available elsewhere.billythefish wrote:The version for sale this last weekend is the second release from TDI.

Absolutely - and 'Ancient Powerplant' is another that I keep having to listen to.timer wrote:Heritage Survival is a Classic - without question IMHOChris Monk wrote:The track Heritage Survival is an awesome slice of FFS period TD and as far as I'm aware isn't available elsewhere.billythefish wrote: The TDI music was remastered and remixed from what is heard on the film soundtrack, and there is quite a lot of material missing.

On one hand, I agree - but on the other, it's nice that we get a cd of mostly original/unheard music (while still having the Tree to keep us happy)!Sfearical Sequence wrote:The problem with the TDI edition of The Keep is that it bears little resemblance to the music in the film.

But why even call it The Keep? Even though it's not labeled as an original soundtrack, it's still deceptive. If it's mostly original/unheard music (which--you're right--it is), it should be called something else.Beaubourg wrote:On one hand, I agree - but on the other, it's nice that we get a cd of mostly original/unheard music (while still having the Tree to keep us happy)!Sfearical Sequence wrote:The problem with the TDI edition of The Keep is that it bears little resemblance to the music in the film.

This is the same as a lot of the official TD soundtracks though... themes from the film were built on and re-worked to form a proper album. The soundtracks that have not had this treatment (say 'Dead Solid Perfect' for example) are almost unlistenable because the tracks are so short and bitty.Sfearical Sequence wrote:But why even call it The Keep?

nearly all of TD's soundtrack albums have been re-worked after the film was released...so you never really get the Original MusicSfearical Sequence wrote:But why even call it The Keep?

To an extent, yes, but it's for the most part the music that was initially created for the film, refined or remixed a bit. Sorcerer is problematic in that very little of the music was actually used in the film anyway, but with STs like Thief, Wavelength, Firestarter, and Legend, for example, the music, however much "reworked," still sounds pretty much like it does in the film. The TDI Keep contains a large proportion of material that has nothing whatsoever to do with the film, and the tracks that are related to the film bear little resemblance to the film versions. It's obvious that much of it was recorded many years afterward due to the use of instruments that didn't exist at the time. We know it's all due to legal reasons, so apparently there was a limit to how close to the original they could get. The tracks that do sound close to the film score are:24db wrote:nearly all of TD's soundtrack albums have been re-worked after the film was released...so you never really get the Original MusicSfearical Sequence wrote:But why even call it The Keep?
