Downloading now Matt!!!

I just would like to report everyone that not 100% of the score you listen to is made by me...to be more specific, in the part of the snake bar there´s a music in there that in my own conception I wouldn´t put...actually this music with synthetizer was added by Matt and don´t make part of the original score...it was a surprise to hear these sounds there...I´l be puting the score track available soon here!!!

Leo, sorry about that, I added them as ambient mood noises, I didn't mean to step on any score. That scene just felt flat to me so I added the low hum and the turn noise. I was not happy with my sound effects there when I watched the whole thing. I LOVE the score by the way!

Matt, I sent an email to you...check there!!!

I uploaded this revised version of the film to my mirror. I replaced the original file with this one (giving it the original filename).

You can download it from http://www.nrestudios.com/horror_mirror/ via the listing or directly from:

ok i got to finish this one with the new sound. Even though its an exhibition joint I want to vote on it. Its the only one that gave me chills and goosebumps. Very good job Matt and crew.

Awesome Aram!!! I hope others get this same chilling feeling!

It's encouraging to hear you are still working on the soundtrack because I am doing the same on The Seeing. Our original mix sounded great on a theater speaker quality system but the low frequency underpinning was completely lost on computer speakers and most built in TV speakers. The release upload has a heavily compressed version of the mix with the bass shelved below 80 Hz. That puts all the sound within the reproduction range of most crappy speakers. We are doing a 7.1 home theater mix as well as a complete remix, with less compression, for medium quality speakers. I did all the sound stuff. Rather than compose a melodic element I went with a soundscape of layered and blended tonal musical notes, sound effects with a tonal center and atonal sound effects. The foley is both original production and post recorded and some library. It was my hope that the audio track would not be noticed but rather support the excellent work Rich, Matt and Jason did. Do you think the soundtrack succeeded at those objectives?

I haven't been able to get to watching the entries until just now. I'll send you my thoughts on Stricken once I've seen it.

I liked the subtle music of The Seeing. It did work well. I dont know if a more apparent soundtrack would have helped the feel of the movie or not, but I do know that what you have works very well. I ABSOLUTELY enjoyed watching The Seeing. Let me know your feedback on Stricken as well, as I am interested in what you thought.
