I'm of two minds about the Off remaster not using the original soundtrack.
On the one hand, "by the way, you'd be responsible for clearing all of your own samples" is a hell of a thing to drop on an independent composer, and I totally understand why Coldwood would balk at that.
On the other hand, the original Off soundtrack very conspicuously uses an unlicensed and largely unaltered recording of Judy Garland singing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow", and one can see where a publisher with as large a target on their backs as Fangamer might be thinking "okay, what else in here is going to get our asses sued by Jeff Bezos if this guy isn't forthcoming about the sources of his samples?"
