King Mark 3,626 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 If LLL (or another label) ever gets to do the Potters, if Williams nixes anything being included we can likely just fill it in from the session leak.That's the shame with Hook - he nixed stuff like the Neverfeast Insert, which we don't have clean anywhere. we have it on the Concorde boot, and it doesn't suffer the same distortion as the rest of the music fro some reason.Maybe those who made this boot had a clean source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,304 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 My understanding is those new Australian import laws don't affect foreign companies with turnover under $75,000AUD into Australia. I'd be surprised if LLL had annual sales into Australia that high. I'm also not sure how the government could even track country-specific sales of foreign businesses. So it should be business as usual. The government is really just targeting the huge international corporations like Amazon (because they're a threat to our retail sector and flogs like Harvey Norman donate millions to the government to invent laws that protect his business). It would be logistically impossible and outrageously expensive to chase up GST from every international seller shipping goods into Australia, which is the entire reason the threshold for import tax used to be $1,000. Anyway, on the topic at hand, I wonder if said Empire issue might have a surprise announcement about Potter expansions, hence LLL promoting the upcoming issue? We can hope!

crumbs 14,304 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Interesting... the speculative posts above have been moved from the LLL thread in the general forum to this 5 year old thread on the main board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyD 1,221 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Here is the post that La La Land Records re-tweeted: The artist of that cover for the latest issue of Empire Magazine is Paul Shipper. His art style pays tribute to Drew Struzan. I did a little bit of digging to see if he was involved with La La Land Records in any way. You know what I found? Nothing. Then I saw that he worked on the cover for King Cohen; other then that, nothing. That makes LLL re-tweeting that post all the more interesting. I am not jumping to conclusions; I just find it VERY interesting that a cover celebrating Harry Potter, for which the musical foundation of that franchise is the Maestro, especially with him having done the first three films, would be shared by LLL. "Curious. Very curious." Then again, it may just be LLL throwing a bone to Paul Shipper. Who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,305 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Paul Shipper did the poster art for King Cohen, which is of course a movie produced by Matt Verboys, with the Blu Ray & OST album released by LLL records.

mstrox 6,647 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Ah, yeah - if there’s a connection to Shipper, that makes a lot of sense.

Richard Penna 3,673 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Thing is, that comment was in the Mummy thread, which isn't LLL. So either it's another Intrada release or LLL (and likely MM) decided to do it for one of their releases. I'd be fine with a Potter 1 that recreates tracking, but that's just me. I only recall three instances - Diagon Alley, First night, and Halloween, and all of them work great - certainly the first two work better than JW's original cue. I'm not sure if something was fiddled at the start of the Quidditch Match too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holko 9,499 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Another cue that is purely tracked as far as I know is Petrified Longbottom, not too significant. The big, building Three Note Loop "concert piece" appears heavily truncated between the forest scene and Hagrid's flute playing. I don't think Quidditch had any fiddling apart from possible microedits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 3,673 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I seem to remember something didn't match the Quidditch album track after they fly out, before the match starts. But that's one case where the album version is perfect. Forgot about Petrified Longbottom. Not an overly memorable bit so I never bothered to find where it came from.

There is an original cue that must not simply be replaced by film edits! ... [calming down] ... No, what I meant and would consider acceptable is the recreation of the tracking in the second film using, music from the first score, in order to fill the narrative gaps. 45 minutes ago, Richard Penna said: Thing is, that comment was in the Mummy thread, which isn't LLL.

Richard Penna 3,673 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 That's more likely what would happen, yes. And yes, there may be an original cue, but if said original cue is inferior or less suitable for the scene than the tracking, then I want the film version.I actually think it's a little fanboyish to think that the composer's original cue is the only way you should ever listen to it. Composers can get it wrong, or the director may have a brilliant idea. Diagon Alley and First Night work waaaayy better than the original cues.

Holko 9,499 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 If you remove all the looping in Diagon Alley, it indeed is superior. I'd call the original Lonely First Night outright bad - the horns and bells just don't harmonise in a good way. Just watched the Quidditch match opening, there's just some looping and microediting going on there. bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,304 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 These things can take a long time to come to fruition, especially considering this involves 3 scores (and I somehow doubt they'll release them individually). In an interview with Deutsch from 2012 he mentioned they were pushing Sony for a Titanic expansion, but Sony refused due to the costs. He then added they would work towards a 20th Anniversary release instead. Fast forward five years... The benefit of Potter is all 3 scores were recorded in London, so there should be less paperwork regarding usage fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
