Charles Bernstein - April Fools Day- Original Motion Picture Soundtrack- The Deluxe Edition (FLAC)

This is REALLY cool, for anyone that loves horror soundtracks.  



This is a great isolated score from from the guy that did the first (original) Nightmare on Elm Street.  

For ages there was only a version that had mock-up versions of the tracks (almost like rough drafts) but not what was heard in the final cut of the film itself.  Finally, this deluxe edition contains the rough draft material from the previous soundtrack release, as well as WHAT YOU ACTUALLY HEAR IN THE FINAL CUT OF THE FILM, plus bonus material.



I'm literally the first person on the planet seeding this so help me out.  I went out and bought it just to share.  It'd mean a lot if you'd help seed it for a bit.  I appreciate it :-)



Varèse Sarabande revisits a classic horror soundtrack from its early catalog with April Fool’s Day, the 1986 black comedy/horror slasher film directed by Fred Walton and scored by Charles Bernstein.



Thomas F. Wilson, Deborah Foreman, Clayton Rohner and other familiar faces from the 1980s star as college friends whose spring break trip to an island mansion unfortunately coincides with April Fool’s Day. Innocent pranks lead to a steadily rising body count as murders decimate the group—with a surprising twist climax. Bernstein found an unusual challenge in April Fool’s Day, which needed to evoke the slasher genre, but also have an element of “winking” to its audience. “We’re having fun with the horror genre—but it’s not a horror movie,” he says in the new liner notes by Brian Satterwhite. “My challenge was how to score a movie that wasn’t a horror movie but used horror tropes.”



April Fool’s Day was released on LP (and later CD) by Varèse Sarabande, in a synthesized performance not heard in the film itself. That 20-track, 30-minute synth program is included on this Deluxe Edition, along with the long-awaited premiere release of the actual orchestral recording heard in the film (23 tracks, 27 minutes), plus previously unreleased bonus tracks.



This is the definitive April Fool’s Day soundtrack release—and that’s no joke!
