Hey Simon, i got a VHS tape from Tim a long time ago that has awesome video and audio quality and i believe has the 89 soundtrack. So if you're still interested, i can work out a way to get it on a digital format and over to you. Cheers Xav On 18/09/05, Simon Daw <simon@antmusic.fsnet.co.uk> wrote:
Thanks to Andy Lee, many of us have The White Room movie in fantastic quality on DVD. Older list members may be aware that this move exists with two different soundtracks – one from 1989 and one from 1992. Andy's version of the film has the later 1992 soundtrack that uses many of the familiar tracks from the 1991 album of the same name. The 1989 version uses tracks (and many unreleased remixes) from the unreleased 1989 soundtrack album.
What I am currently in the middle of doing is trying to add the earlier 1989 soundtrack as an alternative audio track on a DVD, so that you can switch between the 1989 and 1992 versions. I always thought that the 1989 soundtrack suits the film better than the 1992 version.
The only sources I have for the 1989 soundtrack are from a VHS that Jai Nelson copied for list members some ten years or so ago and the revised Mike Dutton VHS in the orange sleeve called "This Is What The KLF Are About". Unfortunately, both these copies suffer from various drop-outs and tape-stretches, which cause audio glitches. I would like to add a near-perfect 1989 soundtrack to the DVD, but even with a lot of editing between the two 1989 sources, there are still many imperfections.
Is there anybody out there on the list that has a version with the 1989 soundtrack that is in good quality? If so, would they be willing to either lend it to me, or make a CD copy of the audio element, so that I can add it to the DVD?
How do you tell the difference? Well, the easiest way is to watch the end of the film – the 1989 soundtrack ends with the Pure Trance version of What Time Is Love with answer-phone messages playing over it and the 1992 soundtrack is the Live From The Lost Continent version of Last Train To Trancentral.
If you can help – please mail me off the list.
Thanks
Simon
