Blade Runner is one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard in a movie. It's truly a work of art.

RIP. An amazing composer and true inspiration. Will never forget how hearing El Greco as a teenager moved me.

Vangelis' passing is something that came by so unexpectedly. I remember back when I first discovered Vangelis when I was younger and used to browse synth forums a ton. Vangelis was alongside Trent Reznor for my synth idols and I listened to the Blade Runner Theme, Alpha, and Spiral so much. He inspired my love for the CS80 as one of THE dream instruments for me. It was also because of Vangelis that I found out about Blade Runner. I kinda stopped listening to so much of his stuff as I hit my mid/late teens, not out of a lack of love but just out of a bigger focus on other kinds of music. Started going back to Spiral and Blade Runner during the pandemic and now in his passing I'm going through as much of his albums as I can get to. I cannot think of any other Electronic musician of his era that was as formative for my life as Vangelis. Thank you for sharing your love and craft Vangelis. You will be terribly missed by those of us who had found your music through our lives. Rest in peace.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoEkyBX7qsg | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tgu_NqCxeKw | Two videos of Vangelis that I grew up watching. Seeing his love and total understanding of his synths is truly something. These videos really hit hard now outside of just mere nostalgia. Honestly I think I watched that Improv just as much, if not more, than any of his actual recorded material. Maybe even the same for that short CS80 demo too.

I have been listening to Vangelis' music since a friend gave me a copy of Albedo 0.39 on a TDK tape in 1982. The only reason I went to see 1492 The Conquest of Paradise was because he did the score. I missed the original release of Blade Runner but made sure I saw the Directors Cut on the big screen, partly for the amazing film but also for how integral his score was to the atmosphere, from the iconic first notes. I am so glad that he gave us so much amazing music and so very sad he is no longer with us. R.I.P.

Three years ago I went to Delos, Greece which is an unpopulated historical island. We climbed to the top of a mountain which has an ancient temple with a dedication to Dionysus. There was no one else there and we could see the entire island with the Aegean Sea and for just a split second I could have sworn I heard "Memories of Blue" playing in the wind. RIP. Thank you for everything. ♥

El gran, gran Vangelis y Klaus Schulze tuvieron en común el año de su fallecimiento y su maestría en los sintetizadores. Que descansen en paz ambos y muchas gracias por la música.

Listened to the Rain & Tears compilation album in its entirety just yesterday , must've been the first time i've heard Aphrodite' Child in ages, and today I woke up to the sad news of passing of Evángelos Odysséas . Maybe the Universe does send signals. The message I'm taking from this is to spend time & appreciate the good folks in your life whilst they still around. Vale , Maestro Vangelis !
