Here
we go again. I seem to be relying on these types of posts more
frequently lately. I gotta get my groove back somehow.
The
fan content I choose to highlight this time around is Magical
Soundtracks, a YouTube channel that posts, almost exclusively,
music from the Disney theme parks. Their particular area of
specialization is music loops,
be they from themed areas, shops, restaurants...even hotel lobbies
and special seasonal events. Here's a timely one, considering the
Year of the Pig starts tomorrow:
I'm
always excited to see that they've updated, especially since the
quality is so high—many theme park music archivists rely on
induction recordings and shotgun microphones, which tend to produce
listenable but not stellar audio. Magical Soundtracks, I believe,
obtains reference recordings of loops and then reconstructs them
using source tracks. So there's a lot of hands-on editing work that
goes into this channel as well. The results literally speak for
themselves.
Here's
a few more of my favorites from this channel:
Have a listen!
