Channel F: “Channel 2 Season 2 Retrospective” (all tracks - MUSIC-ONLY!)

Saturday Nov 19, 2022

It’s almost time again for our end-of-year “Best of Season 2” (C2R2), on Channel 2, where Hugues and I will pick a combined 22 tracks from the 72 total which we featured across all of Season 2 in calendar 2022. Like last year, we’ll each pick 2 tracks per episode (one per episode per host from each of the two hosts), as well as each picking one wildcard track to serve as our episode opener and closer tracks.

To build a little excitement for that episode, as well as to give you a handy refresher of everything we did this year, we have put together a music-only recap of the entire season’s output (links will be included to each of the “full episodes” with Hugues and I’s dialog included).

Of the 72, we already know which 22 we’re going to feature as “Best of”s, but as there’ll be no spoilers on it, you’ll have to just guess and wait and see and hope your personal favorites make our cut! ;-)

You can also email us at nerd.noise.radio@gmail.com, or reach out to us on social media telling us what your top 11 would be (one track per host per episode, plus one wildcard), and if we get some submissions before recording time, we can mention them in the episode (or if we get enough of them, perhaps we can even make an Archive SUPER BONUS release out of them).

Cheers!

Episode Music Block Timestamps: 01:21:29 - 02:08:20

Special Notes: Nerd Noise Radio’s contribution to the greater “Masters of VGM” VGM community group project [www.mastersofvgm.com]. Also, this track has two more tracks than a typical episode of Ch 2 (16 instead of 14). Lastly, ever so slightly non-standard format (instead of H / J / H / J / H / J etc, it’s H / J / J / H / H / J / J / H / H etc - which will make more sense when you see the tracklist), and because of the weird formatting, Hugues also had the rare opportunity to get BOTH the opening AND the closing track!

Special Notes: The final production of the original [main] episode was produced entirely on the Steam Deck (a first for the show). The various bits and pieces that comprised the show were made here and there across four different devices. The Steam Deck WAS one of them, but not the main one. The music block for the music-only version included in today’s episode (as well as today’s full episode) were NOT produced on the Steam Deck. I am committed to doing at least one episode where every single bit and piece of the production is performed ENTIRELY on the Steam Deck. This episode was not that, but was a FANTASTIC first [giant] step towards it, and as such, still very important in these regards!

Music Block Runtime: 01:25:40 / Total Episode Runtime: 01:43:57

Our Intro and Outro Music is Funky Radio, from Jet Grind Radio on the Sega Dreamcast, composed by BB Rights.

Intro / Outro / Final Production produced using Ardour 6 / Audacity 3 in Ubuntu Studio [Linux] 22.04 09/08/2022. Music Block produced in GarageBand in macOS 10/19/2018.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The tools and techniques I used back in 2018 in producing the music block were NOT up to my current standards – including featuring less sophisticated fades, more imprecise volume level balancing, less developed track run-order sorting, and even my having used MP3s rather than WAVs in the source production, resulting in a lower-fidelity final product, and further limiting my ability to touch it up after the fact. As such, the production value of this episode will NOT be to par with our current "fresh episodes". But production values aside, the quality of the CONTENT itself, otherwise, I feel, is excellent, and well worth digging up to share with you.....I hope that you'll agree! :-)

You can also find all of our audio episodes on Archive.org as well as the occasional additional release only available there, such as remixes of previous releases and other content.

Our YouTube Channel, for the time being is in dormancy, but will be returning with content, hopefully, in 2022. Meanwhile, all the old stuff is still there, and can be found here:

Our episodes (and occasionally, other content, including expanded show notes) can be found on our blog here:

Channel 1: ”Noise from the Hearts of Nerds” - “C1E68: They’re Coming to Get You, Barbara”

Thursday Oct 27, 2022

Today's Broadcast is C1E68 for Theme Thursday, October 27th, 2022. Today's theme is a collection of spooky, dissonant, jarring music for the occasion of Halloween, on a program we're calling "They're Coming to Get You, Barbara" - a "Lost Level", originally intended for C1E37: Halloween 2018, then bumped to C1E48: Halloween 2019, before being bumped indefinitely, and lost to the sands of time....UNTIL NOW! Featuring a music block produced all the way back in July of 2018, making today's broadcast "THE KING OF LOST LEVELS"! And even though the "production quality" of a music block this old is far inferior to our current fresh productions, the "design philosophy" behind this block remains to this day the most sophisticated thing I've ever done. I'll let the intro tell the story!

If you wish to subscribe to the "Noise from the Hearts of Nerds" podcast - audio-only, there are two options:

Option 1: Subscribe right here to the "Nerd Noise Radio Network - All Channels" podcast feed. Feed will include Channels 1, 2, 3, and any future channels not yet planned. Feed will also include podcasts in high quality, stereo where applicable, and episodes will never expire off the feed. Therefore it is STRONGLY recommended that you subscribe to this Nerd Noise Radio feed and bypass all others. This one will contain all their content anyway.

Option 2: If you're ONLY interested in Channel 1 ("Noise from the Hearts of Nerds") episodes, and not in any of the other content that is or will be offered by Nerd Noise Radio, there is a Channel 1-specific feed. But it's hosted on a free account, rather than an upgraded account like the "All Channels Feed" with lower quality sound (mono, I believe), a maximum 2hrs per month of content (so if the month's episodes run longer than that, they may need to be trimmed), and episodes expire off the feed forever after 90 days. It is STRONGLY recommended for most listeners to subscribe to the All-Channels feed instead. However, if you really are only interested in Channel 1 content, here's the RSS: 

http://www.buzzsprout.com/77944.rss
