What are you listening to?

I just realized that the music album I downloaded about 15 years ago took a lot of liberty using audio from the movie, 'Waking Life' (Richard Linklater, 2001) https://archive.org/details/waking_life ... railer.mp4

Chilled Cequence - Dream Triggers (album name)
https://www.discogs.com/release/1197532 ... m-Triggers
And this link from the album creator omits most of the trackshttps://soundcloud.com/chilledcquence

I did end up finding an upload of the album:
Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deoLcJi ... _R96bUWeQY


(Until I found the above link, though I believe that only exists because it hasn't been discovered) I actually suspect they might have gotten into trouble for using tracks from the movie, so perhaps their music tracks stopped becoming available, because they didn't have permission to use it? The part in the movie where they describe "ant autopilot" as well as some random channel flipping on TV had some tracks used, and the album opens with reference to the movie:

I've been using the track Ambiluxor as my ring tone for at least a decade (which makes no reference to the movie.)

Pretty boring but not bad if you just wanted to have ambient noise in the background and possibly had no interest in any visuals.

Possibly the most INTP thing (it seems a program is being used to automatically generate ambient drone sounds.) It's more obvious in the second video where it has text on screen making reference to color, and I assume some of the programs he's written are in reference to it.)

He added an AI generated film scores (though if you source the original movie scores, those are infinitely superior, and almost always will have better video quality.) These AI soundtracks sound similar to if you had an early 1970s electric synthesizer and were just starting out by experimenting with the adjustments to generate variations in noise (the kind of stuff you almost never see because it became obvious people would rather have preset settings instead of attempting to use it in real time.)

A movie was based on him: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/stefan ... urope_2017

I noticed a movie music composer, Paul Gilreath for the movie, Joey aka Making Contact from 1985, who might only appear in the American version having his name in the credits since they used a different ending score (even though the German version use English lyrics?) who gave a similar style orchestral performance to John Williams, even if it wasn't as memorable.)
https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0319654/

He also did this before fizzling out of cinema music scores, and did a "New Age" album in the 1990s; needless to say these are very much contemporary to their time period. I would classify the movies as B movies, even if the Director of Making Contact (aka Joey) (Roland Emmerich, 1985) would go onto make Independence Day and Godzilla (though seemingly that was his high point of his career as well.)



His music on Youtube doesn't include the Joey movie. . . as if it never existed.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCclrlq ... KLK-YeUO7A

The German version of Making Contact / Joey is longer by 20 minutes https://www.cda.pl/video/51289745f though such a movie hasn't managed to make it's way to being given a fan edit treatment compared to similar German produced with English Actor adaptions like The Neverending Story, which similarly seems to have used different music composers for their intended audiences (which the German version sounds like an old synth wave soundtrack.)

I've been thinking of old analog synthesizers and have been wondering about how history will see them, as if similar to how we perceive old music instruments that were hand made by luthiers, where the components that existed during their production are irreplaceable, and how history will view the music of earlier generations. It's possible that we could recreate such instruments, but the infrastructure of how they were produced will be similar to why old tube amps aren't being made anymore, and whenever you find them they are more than likely old stock that sat on a shelf because people simply stopped using them; so unless they were being pulled out of old equipment to be repurposed, you probably wouldn't really find them anymore, since they aren't usually seen as commercially viable. I kind of compare the thought to old video games where at the time you first played them you were willing to deal with the imperfections of the movement and junkiness, and you could eventually master it, but which your willingness to mess with it was really a product of it's time.
