La-La Land Records and Sony Pictures celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the 1995 blockbuster big-screen action/comedy BAD BOYS, starring Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, and directed by Michael Bay, with this remixed, remastered and expanded limited edition 2-CD re-issue of acclaimed composer Mark Mancina's iconic original motion picture score.
Mark Mancina's (SPEED, TWISTER, TARZAN) exhilarating action score to the film SPEED established the composer as a fresh and notable musical voice, making him the perfect choice for BAD BOYS, a bold and exciting new take on the battle-tested buddy-cop/action formula. Mancina expertly harnesses superstars Will Smith and Martin Lawrence's explosive comedic and dramatic chemistry, along with Director Michael Bay's high-octane action mayhem, creating a legendary work that helped change and influence action film scoring into the 21st century and one that still serves as the musical thematic foundation of the entire BAD BOYS franchise decades later.
La-La Land's original 2007 single disc CD release of BAD BOYS was compromised by the only available music elements at that time, resulting in some of that release's program in mono. Now presented in full stereo for the first time, this all-new remastered and expanded 2-CD re-issue is a major upgrade in both sonic quality and content, finally allowing Mancina's work to shine in all its brilliance!
Produced by Stéphane Humez and mixed and mastered by Maxime Marion from newly discovered 32-track digital masters, this deluxe presentation of BAD BOYS features the film score presentation on Disc One and Bonus Tracks on Disc Two. Limited to 3000 Units, this release's exclusive liner notes are by writer Kaya Savas and include new interviews with composer Mark Mancina and additional composer Nick Glennie-Smith. The sharp art design is by Dan Goldwasser.
