REQUEST: Hunting for UW Live Temptation Alexandra Palace NYE 1998 source recordings

[Badger]

Thats cool Yannick...Mike was able to give me a copy and we've used it as a MASTER GUIDELINE for my editing in the timeline and also for the little missing bits off of Skyscraper at the start and the full start of Rez. Added some ambience from a reverb plug to make it sound a little more stereo and then layered crowd underneath.

Always was annoyed that no broadcast ever played the full version of Rez.

Here is a little preview of full "Rez"...its not the final final version but it might give you an idea of what we've done...
Let me know what you think so far...although it's only a little taste of whats coming.

Just a question if the end section of Mmm, Skyscraper, before Cowgirl, at Temptation, Alexandra Palace, NYE 1998 actually is a recognized jam and has a title or if its just Rick messing with the end of Skyscraper/start of Cowgirl?

It's from about 9 minutes/10 minutes (depending) into Skyscraper and last for about 4-5 minutes before Cowgirl starts properly.

Here's the track for people to have a listen to to see if anyone can help with info (watch at 9 minutes):

Nothing I recognize, sorry.

Also, did you know that 8:50 - 11:00 in that clip is in mono?

[Badger]

I didn't but I am having a deep look at each of my sources before i start construction of my new version of the Temptation show to make sure things are as good as they can be.

The source of the youtube clip is Jamie's mixdown of the show (that is up on the RTSR tracker).

Skyscraper is going to be one of the biggest pain in the asses as it will probably have to be constructed from 3 - 4 different sources to get the best and most complete full version possible (the Swedish radio source is missing a couple of minutes of the start and is missing the few minutes of the jam type part of the end and has a glitch in it and the other sources have issues too but i think i might have one full radio 1 recording that is good so maybe we wont have a multi source version that might sound uneven...havent decided yet.)

Skyscraper will be the hardest fix out of all the tracks from the show.

For a moment the jam is "Synth Attack", just a nickname for those fast bright chords which they played more than a few times in 98/99. Not as long as usual, most of it is just beat improv.

[Badger]

Is it worth labelling it as that and track marking it? Or just leave it as Skyscraper?

[WhiteNoise]

I probably wouldn't label it and definitely not index it. It's so short.

I find that crowd noise has been the best determiner of how a set is gonna sound in comparison to other sets from a fidelity point of view, and from the moment I hit play there was a HUGE difference. Good work! Can't wait to hear the whole thing!

Will always love that slow build for Rez
