On July 19, Rutger Hauer passed away. The Dutch actor was best known for his searing performance as Roy Batty in Blade Runner, capturing the imagination of millions who keyed into Batty’s bristling gripes with life and society at large.

The film’s legacy in dance music is extensive; its chilling, dystopic, film noir visuals and dazzling Vangelis score have influenced a generation of dance music producers, with scenes and sounds mightily indebted to, and even artists named after, the film.

The connection between the film and dance music was firmly consummated in 2008 when Massive Attack mixed Vangelis' original score of Blade Runner with the 45-piece Heritage Orchestra as part of the Meltdown festival they curated.

In memory of Hauer, and to reinforce the film’s long-reaching legacy in dance music, we have compiled a list of tracks that sample the film, from its gorgeous Vangelis compositions to its array of memorable quotes and in-film FX.
