TRON Rework is coming in 2010
Posted by Daeque | Filed under Sundry
In a Hollywood overrun with remakes, a new Tron has quite a daunting challenge. The original film may be a cult hit for its 80s arcade cool, but it also was a seminal moment in the evolution of computer animation, at the nexus of obsessive-compulsive optical effects that came before and digital effects that came after. (Google Perlin Noise, if you must.) But where the bits of the effects look uneven or dated alongside the brilliant, it’s nearly impossible to top the genius of Wendy Carlos’ score. Her deft blend of choirs, orchestras, organs, and rich electronics wasn’t just forward looking: it’s fresh today, an alternative to some of the signature sameness in today’s games and films.
Perhaps Tron Legacy will do what other belated sequels have not: express love for the original. With Daft Punk helming the score and a reverent, inspired crew ready to make Tron live again, the trailer last week was the real sleeper hit of Comic-Con.
If that’s not enough layers of fandom, though, head to GearSlutz for a lesson in film scoring and a recreation of the trailer in Reason, custom Reaktor patches, and Ableton Live. This is not much of an infomercial for Live: because Ableton’s arrange view doesn’t quite understand frames, scoring with Live is a bit of a beast. (Live 9, anyone?) But it’s a great example of love for the movie and its original score. And hey, everyone need a source of joy, even a film.

Dimlite – Quiz Tears – All City 7" on yellow vinyl – out this month
Posted by Joachim | Filed under Sundry
Dim himself is telling us the following about this release:
Here’s a tune written for people like myself, who just love to shoot wild streams of salty water out of their eyes now and then. there were supposed to be 7 of these 7-inch jewels on All City records, dublin — this is the 8th and final one.. i hope it’s not as much the elefant in the china shop as i feel it is. if this was a contestant at Next top model.. it would be a girl with a strange, asymmetrical face. she has no bangs. something about the way she moves her limbs and her whole body is strangely appealing, but also very awkward, intimidating even.. her heels magically leave a trace of nice but acidy-smelling flowers on the floor
It’ll be out this month digital and on yellow vinyl on All City Records. Save and spend – nothing more to say … check out our next show to get the a glimpse
