Popular Post scallenger 588 Posted September 16, 2024 Popular Post Share Posted September 16, 2024 It appears that all of the music is here! I notated this in comparison to the old bootleg: “Inner Sanctum” is combined with “The Nesting Grounds” (ala the album). “Playing Monster” appears to be combined with “Zini Rehearses” “Pushing and Shoving" from the bootleg doesn't look like it is included, but it is likely part of one of the alternates on the second disc since it isn't heard in the film. My guess is it is connected to the alternate of "Aladar Meets The Misfits". But I could be wrong. “Aladar Meets the Misfits” appears to be combined with a bootleg track called “Herd Prepares”. “Finding Water” appears to be combined with the bootleg track “Enough For Everyone” “Aladar & Neera” (aka “Love Theme” in the bootleg) appears to be combined with “Kron Moves The Herd” “Misfits & Bruton” from the bootleg appears to be combined with “The Cave” “Attack In The Cave” aka “The Carnotaur Attack” “Breakout” & “It Comes With A Pool” combined. Great to have the OST, since it did have a couple alternates not on the bootleg/film versions (I believe "Aladar & Neera" being one of them). Also nice to see have it in that original arrangement (including some tracks not combined like they are here), because it actually still is a great album. But we also get some additional alternates! The big surprise is having not one but THREE versions of the End Credits?! Nice! The only negative... is the alternate cover... Noooooooo! *sets aflame* *switches back to the regular cover that is included* Oh, thank god for that!

Brando 2,272 Posted September 16, 2024 Author Share Posted September 16, 2024 I’m not sure which cover I prefer. I’d rather have a brand new cover that has the Carnotaurs since I love that design, but I’m just glad this release is finally available, although what I might end up doing is waiting until Christmas since I’m hard to shop for and will need ideas for people.

Popular Post scallenger 588 Posted September 16, 2024 Popular Post Share Posted September 16, 2024 Personally I find the alternate cover with Aladar & the lemur to be a photoshop nightmare haha. No fault of Intrada's since they didn't design it (see here), but a shame Disney likely didn't give them any other asset that was cover-worthy. Oh well, I'm happy with the "eye design."

Seems to be one they can't get right after the initial release, since the version of the cover on streaming isn't fully centered either, though I am having a hard time telling if they tried recreating it or if they accidentally moved some of the layers in the original project file (from removing the bottom text).

Weirdly the text is centred correctly on the flipper cover but wrong on the main cover. I suspect the text layer was just accidentally shifted to the right and somehow nobody noticed.

Could be two inserts/changes and an inclusion of the full piece to present both (or different performance takes), but it would be a lovely bonus if they are two fully different compositions. But merely having the film version in good sound is fantastic - the opening always felt very tinny on my rip. --- I always liked the original cover so I won't be bothering myself with the flipper one - it didn't look like Disney was going to be able to come up with any alt artwork of a good standard and they haven't. Photoshop horror. Looks a nice set overall, with a few alternates and what was Across The Desert with what I think was additional vocals. I guess if they were spilling onto a second disc then including the OST was a 'might as well', although I'm assuming it's the same master as the original. Minor gripe: they're out of Sugarland just in time! Agh!

They almost never credit the mastering engineer and you and I both know that Doug did a solid majority of their mastering over the years. Unless something was produced by Matessino, it has usually been a safe bet that Doug did the master. I'm baffled that a reasonable guy like you is arguing about this, but I guess we'll find out when our CDs arrive. I certainly won't mind if Malone did the master.

Holko 10,881 Posted September 18, 2024 Share Posted September 18, 2024 I compared the samples to the leak and the OST - the main difference is that the OST is mastered pretty hot with everything blasting at you, the boot has better dynamics on paper but the mix can be a tiny bit muddy at times, and the sampes are pretty close to the boot but brighter and clearer, with the percussion especially a little more prominent in general.

Jay 40,704 Posted September 18, 2024 Share Posted September 18, 2024 In the year 2000, the multitrack would very likely have been recorded onto analog tape. In fact, maybe the reason this new album uses a remix from the original multitrack instead of Shawn Murphy's existing mixes from 2000 could be if the mixes were only saved back then in a digital format that isn't considered high enough quality for today's standards. That happened with Harry Potter 1 in 2001. The performance edits were only saved as 44.1khz files, so Mike rebuilt every single performance edit from scratch from a high res transfer of the original analog tape that held every take of every cue Once 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post A. A. Ron 2,123 Posted October 4, 2024 Popular Post Share Posted October 4, 2024 Finally got to listen to this in the car on the way home from a hike. It sounds fine to me. I think the new mix does some nice things for the brass and vocals at times. The alternates for "Enough for Everyone" and especially "The Trek" are the highlights in terms of new material. Both feature more aggressive brass. All three versions of the End Credits are constructed editorially from other cues, though according to the notes, all three use a couple of "End Fixes" to make for better transitions. The first version and "Version 3" use exactly the same cues/takes until the last cue which is a different take. The edit points may be different as well, but I haven't checked. Version 2 is mostly the same, but opens with "The Courtship" instead of "The Egg Travels," so IMO it plays a bit better/less redundantly after the Epilogue than the other two do. Here's the cue assembly for anyone who's curious: DemonStar, Edmilson, LSH and 6 others 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
