El-P Of Run The Jewels Worked On The Soundtrack For Blade Runner 2049, But Got Rejected; Here's What It Would Have Sounded Like


Earlier today, half of one of hip hop's biggest groups went to Twitter to share a previously rejected movie score for the 2017 movie Blade Runner 2049. El-P took to Twitter today (March 28th) to not only announce that he had news of working on the score for an upcoming movie, but also some previously unused music for Blade Runner 2049. He had this to say about the short score;

"as i get closer and closer to being able to announce the film score i'm doing this year, i thought it might be nice to finally throw out this little piece. its what I put together for the blade runner 2 trailer when they called on me. i was honored to even be thought of. almost every sound apart from the percussion was created on the same type of synth vangelis used for the original blade runner score. its unmixed as i only had about 2 days to whip it together and send over. enjoy."

It's certainly outside of El's box to make movie scores, but definitely not outside of his zone of abilities. What do you think an El-P produced movie score would sound like?  Keep a look out for any El-P announcements coming soon (or so he's leading to believe), and check out the unused track from Blade Runner 2049 in the link below.
