這家Perseverance Records連聽都沒聽過

查了一下它們臉書，感覺是洛杉磯的一家獨立小公司


據說連Chris Young的《Unforgettable》都即將由它們發行

是說我等《Unforgettable》好一陣子了惹



看到一位國外網友談述的狀況 煞是有趣：


Well, it seems like Zimmer himself is not really involved in this. Apparently
he doesn't even know about it, according to Robin Esterhammer (Perseverance
Records), lol.

就連默爺本人也不知道發行這件事，這是由Perseverance Records的總裁所公告的



I don't know Perseverance Records' other releases that much,. and how they
work, but do they have a tendense to for instance combine cues on their
releases (like for instance La-La Land Records seems to do, unfortunately) ?

在過去，La-La Land Records的重發版，都是原汁原味的完整收錄
連一些Alternative或是DEMO的都有收錄
但顯然地，這個曲目表並不讓納為國外網友滿意，我也是。


Oh, and 2000 copies ... well, it depends of course on how much it's promoted
before the release date, but I wouldn't be surprised if this will be gone in
just a few hours, if not even less :)

兩千份專輯是否一掃而空呢？拭目以待，看它會不會是第二個《終極戰士》。
前陣子《終極戰士》瞬間被秒殺，有如陳奕迅的演唱會門票



I've only heard rumors about this - has it indeed been officially confirmed?

難道，這是一張半合法自行壓片的bootleg released？
是說，在台灣，工廠壓片兩千份，成本大概一萬多元啦(或更低，忘了)



Well, it's the complete score, more or less, as heard in the film anyway.

Unfortunately, due to Zimmer & co (according to Robin Esterhammer
(Perseverance Records) in the FSM forum) "flat out refused" to work with them
on the project, they only "...had access to a safety copy of the recording
sessions.", meaning it doesn't have as good quality as it could, and should,
have !


若真如此，此版本音質說不定只有mono？這太糟了！



I would assume this to be from the same, or a very similar, source as the old
unreleased (or 'bootleg' if you will) is from. I haven't heard the whole CD
yet, of course, so this is based solely on the few samples available for
listen.

就連這張尚未上市的CD，其音樂來源也讓人擔憂
感覺這是一張品質不是很理想的專輯
好久之前的默爺舊作《驚弓之鳥》，其音質也是讓人很洩氣



I fear this might be the "guideline" of other older score Zimmer releases in
the future too; A label manage to do a deal to release a score, but then no
great source of the score is to be found, and only excists in the composer's
hands, but he refuses to help, and it ends with them using a not-so-great
backup tape copy of the score located on some desk someplace, or nothing is
to be found, and the release won't happen at all :(


對樂迷而言，把默爺後80年、90年代初期的舊作重新整理發行
是個好事情，但(據說)默爺不願加入重新發行的計劃
因此唱片公司只能用一些類比母帶、舊音質的殘缺記錄去執行

這是那位國外網友所擔心之事


Would not surprise me if the Zimmer - "popularity" goes down a little after
this ... it certainly did for me ! (Don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about
this release causing the Zimmer-popularity to drop, but the fact that he
refuses to even help out on getting his older scores released.)

Nevertheless, a big thanks to Perseverance Records for doing this release.
Remember, only 2000 copies available, so don't wait too long before you buy
it ! :)


簡言之，默爺信徒不分國內外還是會衝一張吧？
看FSM討論版的熱烈狀況，還真是心動不如馬上行動

但是若為真的破爛音質，這家公司以後可能就被黑掉了
