Geoff made the coolest present ever for his brother — a five-hour audio mashup of "A Day in Disneyland," as he remembered it from their childhoods. I've only listened to the first 30 minutes or so but I love what I hear:
Over the next few weeks I was able to find historical sound recordings of rides in the past (from each decade), recordings made by stoopidly committed fans made over the years, commercial products that had higher quality clips, and much much more. It took nearly 3,000 clips, records, DVDs, files and samples to create. It took about 72 hours in total to finish. I was able to restore as best I could some old recordings, and of course remove pops and clicks from Disney records I was able to rip.My goal was simple – present a "Day at Disneyland" reminiscent of Brian and my childhood visits, hitting all the good rides, memories and experiences I could muster. From long extinct attractions, reworked rides, and sometimes a less commercial, corporate sponsor free presentation of some parts of the park, I think it came out great.
(Thanks, Geoff!)
