Listening to the first part of our master. One track has VERY bad wow and flutter, so I've suggested a little edit of thirty seconds that remove all of it - if he can do that smoothly that will be very helpful. It's a wonderful score from a classic low-budget sci-fi film, with a score composed by Hugo Friedhofer, Franz Waxman, Aaron Copland, Leith Stevens, Victor Young, Hans J. Salter, and a few others. Yes, you read that right.

Finished a documentary called The Psycho Legacy, which features our very own Pogue.

Oh man, just last fall someone told me about a film with the music of a bunch of those composers. Might have been more than one such film, of course. Wracking my brain now.

Well, I've read 280 pages of the page proofs. 120 pages to go.

This is a pretty rare occurrence - some films were obviously tracked with library music, but this film was not only designed with music for other films, it was newly-recorded back then. Reason? Musician's Union strike. The film was low-budget and this saved them hiring a composer and then still having to record it overseas. So, some smart person went through a lot of music and did a lot of editing and pasting and the result is really good. It's like they'd temp-track a film today, but instead of replacing the temp track they just used it, albeit newly recorded. The film itself carries no music credit.

Happily our booklet not only tells you who wrote what but also what films and cues the originals are.

Yes, newly recorded for the film in question. Might be the same one. All I remember is finding the composers referenced on the film's IMDb page. Can't reach my friend till tomorrow to ask what it was.

Did anyone see the eclipse? We went outside to see what we could see, which was nothing, and looked right at the sun.

I'm still seeing spots.

Eating a nice Cuban wrap from Trader Joe's. Then, MAD MEN. Which will probably do me in for the night.

It was my niece's birthday party at 4pm. There was way too much food. My sister's mother in law showed up with 4 huge dishes of food that my sister didn't know were coming. There was some really good Filipino food (not sure if she made it or her sister). But there were eggrolls and noodles. Love those two dishes.

I didn't really eat that many of the dishes. So i will eat some tomorrow. Hopefully. Although i did take home some of the stuff i made. And a hamburger that i didn't get to eat.

Sounds yummy.

I'm watching the first film in the Van Veeteren series - another Swedish detective thing - very good so far. The character in film one is retiring - of course he gets brought back to work on cases, but in his retirement he buys and runs an antiquarian bookstore, so that's fun.
