Horner’s PROJECT X Reissued by La-La Land

Horner Project X LLLLa-La Land Records, 20th Century Fox and Fox Music present a remastered reissue of renowned composer James Horner’s (GLORY, BRAVEHEART, TITANIC) original score from the 1987 feature film PROJECT X, starring Matthew Broderick and directed by Jonathan Kaplan. Mr. Horner crafts another beautiful work, expertly weaving heartwarming drama, sinister mystery and love to support this thoughtful and dramatic tale of a flight training program for primates that is revealed to have a darker purpose. Produced for Fox by Nick Redman, produced by Mike Matessino and Neil S. Bulk, and mastered by Matessino, sourced from the original analog 3-track stereo masters, this special limited edition CD reissue presentation features a never-before-released track.
