CLASSIC BLOG: "REMEMBERING THE SEVENTIES SOUND DESIGN OF THE ORIGINAL "STAR WARS"

To make space for future features and photos, I'm transferring the majority of the AFICIONADO blogs area of 2008 to 2010 from the main site onto this blog. It also feels more appropriate that a blog should be on a blog site!


Here's one of our first, and keep checking back for more on and off, mixed in with our regular new material (some past blogs will also be further updated with info and photos!):


Just a quickie to let people know of a great site I discovered via the ORIGINALTRILOGY.COM site. If, like me, you've ever been fascinated by the various sound mix differences of STAR WARS (or A NEW HOPE), you may want to check out Russ Dawson's excellent site charting the various differences between the original 1977 cinema Mono and Dolby release tracks done for the film when it was originally released. The site is a labour of love, nicely designed and well worth a look-you may be surprised by some of the stuff on there!!
