La-La Land Records, Capitol Records and Paramount Pictures proudly present the expanded and remastered 2-CD SET of acclaimed composer Hans Zimmer's original score to the 1989 culture-clash cop/actioner BLACK RAIN, starring Michael Douglas, Andy Garcia and Ken Takakura, and directed by Ridley Scott. Zimmer's pulse-pounding score would become a sonic blueprint for action film scoring throughout the 90's and well into the present. Finally, as produced by Dan Goldwasser and mastered by Doug Schwartz, BLACK RAIN gets its much-deserved and expanded deluxe treatment, presenting Zimmer's film score on Disc 1 and the original, remastered 1989 album presentation on Disc 2, along with bonus tracks and alternate cues that include the main title version of the opening song "I'll Be Holdin' On." Tim Grieving's exclusive, in-depth liners take you behind the film and its iconic score.

Hans, le joueur de flûte is a ravishing opera, loosely based on the legend of Hamelin’s pied piper popularized notably by the Grimm Brothers, composed by Louis Ganne and premiered in Monte-Carlo in 1906. Rarely recorded, its best rendition is undoubtedly this beautiful 1967 performance with the best French singers of their time, including Liliane Berton and the amazing baritone Michel Dens in the title-role.

Hans Zimmer’s score for Ridley Scott’s 2003 film Matchstick Men is a whimsical, jazz-tinged detour from their usual epic collaborations. In this offbeat con-man comedy-drama, Zimmer channels a Felliniesque spirit—light, quirky, and full of charm. This Deluxe Edition expands the original release with over 79 minutes of original score, highlighting Zimmer’s melodic invention and playful orchestration, co-created with Geoff Zanelli, Jim Dooley, and Bruce Fowler. A delightful companion to the film’s blend of humor and heart, this soundtrack stands on its own as a vibrant, cinematic listening experience.
