Warriors with new soundtrack

Post by streetsofrage »

I was wondering - did anyone see the re-edit of The Warriors that was being shown earlier this year in cinemas? It was in Edinburgh at The Film House, so I assume else where. It had been given a new soundtrack by someone on Warp Records and I think had been re-editted. I didn't see any info about it on this site, I was wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to get a copy of this anywhere - I missed it's showing.

Ok so....No, my friends at Warp were not aware of anyone who did this so I had to do a little more research.

TES did it (he also re-edited the whole movie)...I never heard of him before but he is a hip-hop artist,
google him.

YOU MUST READ THIS INTERVIEW:

HHC (HIP-HOP CORE): Can you explain us your work showed at the movie festival "Les Urbaines" in Lausanne, Switzerland, a few months ago?

T: Oh yeah, that's what I'm doing tonight. Basically that festival in Lausanne contacted me about doing something and at first I thought I'm just wanna do some rap. But they wrote back and they wanted me to do something different. And that night I saw the movie The Warriors screened by someone in a Park so I just wrote back quick "Well, I'll do a new soundtrack for "The Warriors" and I'll do it live". And then I've started doing some research and I wrote proposals and it became something more and more and more. Now I'm really involved with it, cutting it up and actually changin' the movie a little bit.

HHC: What kind of movie is "The Warriors"?

T: "The Warriors" is almost like a period piece, but it's not, it's a movie about a gang. They go to this big place to meet each other and all the gangs are trying to make friends so they can beat the cops. But it also reminds of what New York was like when Hip Hop started : a lot of diffenrent cultures coming together, gangs. The city was really dark at that point. And that's what the movie is about, how was New York in the seventies, a little extreme, with a lot of subway, a lot of graffitis on the trains... The movie fits some of my music, the darker side of my music.

Hope this helps you find the new soundtrack, I will be on the look out also. :)

Man I just wish I could find one with all the songs, including the intro music before they get on the subway.
