All,

If I may, I'm going to stick my neck out a little and try to add a little perspective on things...

I understand Focuspuller's desire to keep this thread on topic and that it be used for the discussion of his project.  He has a right to make this request and those posting can choose to respect that or not.  If they don't, they open themselves up to criticism and shouldn't be surprised by it. 

Having said that...

Let's be honest, at times this thread has been on life support and months have gone by without any activity because there's nothing NEW that's on topic to be discussed and I don't consider posts that essentially say 'still alive' or 'still working on it' to be discussion worthy.

All you need to know about this project is available on the first page because that's basically where it stands.  I'm fully aware that focuspuller's been going through a difficult time and since this is a labor of love on his part, I respect that and I'm perfectly content to occasionally check in to see if there's anything new.

But until samples can be heard or a partial release is made available or an interesting technical account of what was done to achieve certain completed cues is shared, what are we actually discussing?

Fire away...

Uh oh...we've lost contact with focuspuller...again  ;)

But I'm glad to hear the project is still alive...

Good to hear from you focuspuller   :-) 

Now being a Dad myself of 6 weeks.. I can concur that Children come first! 

 

It's gonna be great when it arrives.  Take your time.  Us fans aren't going anywhere!  :-)

 

Once again, great to hear from you.  Hope all is well.

 

6 weeks. Damn, that feels like a millions years ago. :) It's pretty cool bieng a dad isn't it?

Yes... Sleep is now a distant memory!  :-)  But it's worth it! :-)

Sleep? What is this word you speak of? ;)  My three week old doesn't believe in it...

OT - Merry Christmas everyone!

focuspuller,

Hope 2010 brings better times for your family.  My wife's due date has been moved up a week, so I'm down to my last few weeks of hobby time, at least for a while...  ;)

focuspuller,

Thanks for the update, an mp3 "workprint" version sounds great to me.  Hope you can continue to see the bright side of things despite the negative distractions.

focuspuller,

Great to hear from you!  No doubt you have very little free time right now for this project, but I must say I'm glad to hear that it's not on hold and the work continues, even if it is at a much slower pace.

I'm expecting my first in February and I can only imagine how little time I'll have for my current interests, but that's a change that I'm looking forward to...

Cheers

Nothing technical to add, just wanted to interject a big thanks to DJ for taking the time to put these together and make them available.  They look and sound great. 

DJ, if you do decide to do AVCHD versions I for one will look forward to checking them out.

Congrats focuspuller!   That's terrific news, hope your wife is doing well.  This is an "off-topic" post that we can all appreciate.  :)

Well said focuspuller.  I'm here because I'm interested in discussing this collection.  I'll consider myself very fortunate to have an opportunity to enjoy the results of your effort.

focuspuller,

It's good to hear that you're doing a little better since your last post.  I hope this trend continues and you can begin to breathe a little easier.  Your idea of releasing a "workprint" sounds very interesting, but we'll understand if you decide to hold off until it's complete.

Focuspuller,

You're obviously going through a lot but you've definitely got your priorities in order, the project will be done when it's done.  As it should be.  Hopefully after things have improved your returning to work on this music collection will be a good way of getting back into a more "normal" routine.

focuspuller,

Someday should you ever decide to chronicle how you put this amazing collection together I think it would make for a fascinating read for the fans of Vangelis' music and Blade Runner in particular.

As for the latest track expansion...woohoo! :)

Happy New Year to you as well focuspuller.  Sounds like 2009 will be an exciting time for your family, congrats.

After all the effort you've put into this project, I'm glad that you'll have an opportunity to complete it.  It will be quite an accomplishment.

focuspuller,

Thank you for the regular updates, it just adds to the anticipation.  :)  I'm glad to see that your work is progressing.

focuspuller,

I agree with your opinions on the Blade Runner soundtrack and how it's been handled over the years, which is why I'm very excited to hear of your project.  I'll patiently wait for the good news that it's done.  :)

Thank you!
