I know what R means on a cue sheet (Revised), but what does RB mean? (as in, 2M1RB)

I think that's an overlay... like from Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom, "9m1x Sanskrit Continued" is the choral chanting that overlays "9m1 Short Round Escapes" (at least it does in the film, it wasn't included in the Concord set)

Is there any equalizer program that could somewhat fix the sound quality of the RCA Return of the Jedi album? I made an edit using tracks from the Anthology set, but it makes the double cd album even more jarring.

Anyone catch the Monday April 5 episode of "Castle"? The one with the mummy stuff. Anyway, at one point, Castle spies a fedora hanging on a wall, grabs it and puts it on, then starts examining a sarcophagus. And then the music becomes VERY similar to the Ark Theme from "Raiders". Uncannily similar, it had to have been a deliberate homage. :banghead:

Are you guys saying that Patrick Stewart, on "S.T:Insurection", and Sigourney Weaver on "Alien 3" had a hand in how the money was spent? No wonder David Fincher was stressed...

Question for somebody with the Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Score album (paging Dr. Crichton!): when I play the alternate version of "Sacrifice" from "The Gift" (which in actuality is from the "Bargaining" two-parter, I hear), there's just a tiny bit of music missing at the beginning, and it causes track to start with a "pop". It's fixable by using the first note of the actual cue that appeared on the OMWF album (and amplifying it a bit). But I was just wondering if there was a problem with my disc, or if they're all like that.

Sorry, just saw this. I think it's just your disc, I just checked and mine doesn't have that. I hardly ever listen to the alternate though, just the final version from the musical OST. I made a playlist that includes everything from the official score album, the non-musical score cues from OMWF, and the season 3 promo, in episode order. A very long and nice listen. ;)

Was this Universal Logo music written by JW or JG or JH?



Anybody know? Also, besides the Dreamworks Logo music and possibly this one, which other Logo music did JW write?

Instantly recognisable Goldsmith. I believe Horner's was the one prior to this (with the Universal text spinning over the globe in 3D).

Something for some company called Ladd. Not sure I ever heard it.

Yeah, it's still in the Final Cut.

There's also the Amblin logo.

It's Williams, alright, and it was first heard on "Outland", which was the first Ladd Company release. It is in wonderful 5.1, on "B.R: The Final Cut", and is also on a rather nifty Polish "Blade Runner" bootleg c.d.
Don't forget original trailer music for "A.I.", and the teaser trailer for "1941", featuring "Wild" Wayne Kelso.

2. Stolen Memories
3. OYF'N Pripetshok
4. Immolation
5. Making the List
6. Give Me Your Names
7. Auschwitz
8. I Could Have Done More
9. Yeroushalaim Chel Zahav
10. Theme
11. Theme reprise
12. Remembrances
13. Jewish Town
14. Remembrances (Perlman)

What specifically are you trying to do? I use the free program Audacity for all of my music editing needs, and I'm very happy with it. If you have specific questions, I might be able to help.

It is but I usually like to throw the concert pieces into my playlists with the rest of the score and make some chronological sense out of it (rather than placing them strictly at the beginning or end). I kinda figure to begin my SL playlist with Jewish Town. I'll probably just do that.

You know, if this was a cue, I think it would have been perfect for the scene where the Jews are forced to shovel snow and that one-armed old man is shot in the forehead by the Nazis...

Kind of grim and "nostalgic" (it says so in the written score), building up and up to a horrific climax, and then the anti-climax. Also, if you stretch your imagination a bit, there is a sort of "shoveling" rhythm going on in the background.

Does anyone know exactly what all these executive producers, co-executive producers, co-producers, and associate producers, actually do on a film? Today I saw a poster for a new film that 13 "producers". That can't be right, can it? Any thoughts, folks, 'cause I haven't got a clucking foo!



The imdb Glossary might be of some help.
I should be resisting this, but I'm paralyzed with rage... and island rhythms.
