ANDROMEDA STRAIN, THE

Label: Intrada Special Collection Volume 121
Date: 1971
Tracks: 8
Time = 26:13

World CD premiere of striking electronic-led score by Gil Melle for Robert Wise sci-fi classic, based on Michael Crichton novel, starring Arthur Hill, James Olson. Melle writes complex ideas that incorporate incredible array of synthesized effects, then melds them with real acoustic colors for fascinating high-tech music: clinical, chilling, suspenseful! Brief running time results from original Kapp label LP release in 1971 having limited playing surfaces due to hexagonal shape of vinyl. (Not duplicated here!) Intrada CD presented from original stereo LP masters vaulted by Universal Music Group. Crisp, state-of-the-art (in 1971) stereo imagery a result! Intrada Special Collection release limited to 1500 copies! SOLD OUT!
