Jay 37,042 Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 This episode was great! I enjoyed the entire conversation - getting to know the hosts and guest through stories from their childhoods was as wonderful as the discussion of the film itself, and the score itself. Great work all around! There was an unfortunate technical issue that hopefully can be addressed for future episodes; The portions of the episode where only Mike was speaking was filled with compression artifacts and other anomalies, sometimes so much so that it overpowered his voice and made it very difficult to understand what he was saying at a few times. The music clips, and Ed and Laird's voices, sounded alright, it was only Mike's feed that was affected. I'm not sure if his portion was recorded only on your end or if he recorded locally, but it sounded like the former to my naïve ears. Other than that technical note, keep up the good work!

Popular Post lairdo 725 Posted June 15, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2022 Thanks, Jay. Glad you liked it. There is another chunk to follow. Alas, there was a technical issue which resulting in having to do a lot of clean up to even get to this point. Mike in fact did record locally, and while he could not hear it on his end when we recorded, the issue was there in both his local and my remote recording. We discussed re-recording (Mike kindly volunteering to do so), but he was so open and insightful the first time, I felt we could not capture that magic again. I do suspect that when Ed (our IndyCast host) recompressed the file, the situation got exacerbated. Here are the uncompressed versions (WAV and ALAC) for those who have not listened already. I'll post an uncompressed link to part 2 when it is ready as well. (Sorry the files are so big - I edit everything at 96 and just left it at that rate to reduce artifacts.) Thanks again for listening, Laird ALAC - https://mega.nz/file/fNR0XCqL#zfP-spAvOsv_cwuGF00Qc2jJp9n85LP_wxkE3BIuo3k WAV - https://mega.nz/file/TNxiiYTK#lf3PzbWRl72f88qrs0gjE0wW5Fc5HvwSL0snBfZrYqs Andy, TownerFan, Dr. Rick and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,042 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Wow Laird, thank you for the uncompressed files! The conversation was so good, it was easy to push through the technical issue and still enjoy the conversation immensely. Really looking forward to part 2, because part 1 was so good!

Part 2 should finally come out tomorrow (July 4!). We were backed up behind the regular IndyCast last week. I'll post the uncompressed files here as the audio issues were the same (since we recorded the whole thing in one long session). Only 90 mins for part 2 Update: Might be tomorrow (July 5) as Ed, our host, was very busy over the past week and is behind.

Popular Post lairdo 725 Posted July 5, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 5, 2022 And we have orbit! Part 2 has launched and can be found here: http://theindycast.com/indycast-special-the-magic-of-john-williams-62-part-2/ In this episode, we really cover the bulk of the maestro's music from launch to landing where most of the spotting put the orchestral work. Ed Dolista, our host, used my MP3 version which should sound fine even with the noise reduction I had to apply. However, if you prefer it uncompressed, here are those links. Part 2 uncompressed WAV Part 2 uncompressed ALAC As always, a huge thanks to Mike Matessino for all his insights and time to share them.

Jay 37,042 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I have listened to part 2 and it's quite wonderful! Unlike the first part which included many personal stories from the hosts and guest before starting to go through the movie, this mostly covers the rest of the movie thought there are still some nice personal stories throughout. When I was done, I had a realization that there's a good idea for a whole separate podcast in here: Going through entire movies cue-by-cue, talking about the scenes the cues underscore and what themes are used, then playing that cue, etc. It was cool going through SpaceCamp this way, but really could be done for any movie!

Thanks, Jay for the nice comments and of course spending the time to listen. Ron and I have actually gone through a number of movies in similar fashion (Jaws, Jaws 2, Raiders, Temple of Doom, and a few others, all 4 original Superman movies), although having Mike made this all the more magical. Mike is just dialed in! We were honored to spend so much time with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
