Description
Thanks to Nostalgy for releasing the isolated score/soundtrack/OST featuring the music made specifically for the film by Lowell Lo (youtu.be/g2DA2DlpPxo). I gained up the audio, sometimes a LOT, flattened the acoustic dynamic range manually, and re-arranged the tracks to make a more pleasant listening experience. Then I added back two tracks taken from Red Heat (1988), the two Sally Yeh songs featured in the movie, and Handel's Messiah. These tracks are higher quality since they had official releases, but I also flattened the levels on those for my listening pleasure. (See track list below) I also included sound captures labeled "(Audio Cap)" from the movie for some missing cues and movie moments.
What's your favorite moment?
ENJOY!!
