This time we really went all in. Not just did the Kaptain massively increase his mic-game, no, I also treated parts of the recording to a full Auphonic spa which means that it sounds even better. But here comes the real kicker: I took the 1:40h original file and tried to smash every "erm" and to delete every false start and word-repetition I could find. I also hardcore erased some of the stuff we said cause it was really not saying a lot. This took me close to fifteen hours of additional work and I was only able to do it because I'm on holiday. The crazy thing is: there are still a lot of "erms" and other useless sounds in there! But it's easily 75% less than in the original file. The main part of the show (without the outtakes) is now only 1 hour and 18 minutes long. This means 22 minutes of "erms" less than usual! This is probably the greatest sounding episode I ever produced! I also finally mixed it down to mono cause I know how some of you like to just put one bud in for the sneaky micro-escape from reality during "quality time" with your "family" (You know that we are your real family. We'll always be there for you.) Anyways, the Kaptain brings the score to the 1976 animated feature film Les Douze travaux d'Astérix written by Gérard Calvi while I present Koichi Sugiyama's score to the 1990 Almanic SNES game E.V.O. Search for Eden (arranged by Motoaki Takenouchi).
