Headed out for a couple days...if I happen to get into trouble "I'll send an SOS to the world":

My latest project requires a policy: "Don't ask -(because I) won't tell!" - but needless to say it's one of the most ambitious things I've ever done, requiring a total of 129 tracks so far (don't worry - currently I've bounced it down to a mere 68 tracks for mixing) - and only using 9 busses so far.

A screen shot of Matt's DAW showing a total of 129 tracks in use for the project, 68 of which are being used at the time of the screen shot.

Softly, softly, in the shadows... Bustin' Blockbusters talks #WoT S3E01-02: podcasts.apple.com/lt/podcast/b...

A character from the Wheel of Time, Moghedien, creepily draws on a sandy floor, one hand extended toward the camera, exposing the fact than her fingers are darkened or blackened from the knuckles down to the tips.

Matthew Murdick@matthewmurdick· Mar 15

I thought it was just an homage to the way the ends of many spiders' legs look! I'm sure there is an actual story reason - but that was my simplest explanation that I could come up with to keep me from creeping out.

HARD argree! (sorry for the wrinkles - had to pull it out of the hamper because I wore it Sunday)

A wrinkled green Wheel of TIme merchandise shirt lies on the counter. The caption on the shirt reads Straight Outta Two Rivers in white and cuttaway black colors.

Lorne is always SO relieved that when I "approve" of his score 😂 - this time for S3E01 of #TheWheelofTIme!

A private chat message between Matt and Lorne Balfe on another social media sight. Matt's message sent at 1:57pm CST says "Just saw 301 of WoT - excellent job as always!" - a reply from Lorne comes in 50 minutes later - 2:47pm CST that says "Fantastic news"

Matthew Murdick@matthewmurdick· Mar 3

I feel you there! I move everything to external drives - my Holiday WoTIdol (audio and video combined) was nearly 40 Gig!

The image is a Windrows Folder Properties tab showing that "little town" - the folder holding all of Matt's files from his 2024 Holiday WoTIdol entry amounts to a total of 38.4 GB of data. The folder is located in Matt's External Drive (H: drive)

A patron of a zoo, wearing a grey and black striped long sleeved puts an arm around and leans against a life-sized or slightly larger than life-sized panda bear statue in a seated postion eating a stalk.

Matthew Murdick@matthewmurdick· Feb 23

Don't think is was the original run - or maybe it was just being "held over" (remember that when theaters used to put "held over" ontop of the poster when the movie stayed in the theater longer than 2 weeks? Do they still do that?) - anyway I saw it in spring of 76

The image is the original movie poster for the movie JAWS. An overly large great white shark head points towards the surface of the water, where a female in a two piece swimsuit does the "free style"/ crawl swimming stroke. The word JAWS is printed in big red letters at the top

A screen capture of Matt's DAW - the fast moving parts are represented with pink colored wave forms - Thom (muted in the first pass) is in purple wave forms, and the easier parts (muted in the first pass) are orange-ISH. The second pass has all tracks unmuted in this arrangement of "Man Who Can't Forget" as performed by Thom Merrilin in the first season of Wheel of Time on Amazon Prime.

Matthew Murdick@matthewmurdick· Feb 23

Not exactly a #WoTSelfieSundy post, but it does quite eloquently portray my weird brain. The lesson here is always do the tough stuff FIRST - then the rest feels easy...

Matthew Murdick@matthewmurdick· Feb 22

I've spent most of the week working on a different (and exciting!) project from this one but I just finished the first part of the arrangement for "Man Who Can't Forget". Thom continues to be a diva, but we've gotten him his bowl of "Only Green M&Ms" so.... #TheWheelOfTime #WoTSkies

Matthew Murdick@matthewmurdick· Feb 17

So doing this "Man Who Can't Forget" cover I decided to call in a special guest - Thom himself - to use as a guide for my arrangement. Problem is - he's kind of a stickler for a different tempo than I want to do - so I had to "negotiate" intensely with him to get him closer to my speed: #WoTSkies

THIS ONE - OMG! Terrified... by the truths she's learned 😭

Lan picks up Moiraine, dressed in blue with dust and sand all over her clothing. Her facial expression resembles terror and suffering.

Matthew Murdick@matthewmurdick· Feb 12

Here is my rough cut of what I think you were asking for

Matthew Murdick@matthewmurdick· Feb 12

actually my absolute favorite shot from the trailer is THIS one!

A wide shot of the Rings Ter'angreal in Rhuidean - two bodies appear to be suspended, or being flung through the air - one of the bodies is likely Moiraine herself, since the shot prior showed her stepping through the same object.

Matthew Murdick@matthewmurdick· Feb 9

This #WoTSelfieSunday is a no go because... well because I'm dressed like a KC fan... BUT I have been working on this in celebration of the return of Thom:

Matthew Murdick@matthewmurdick· Feb 5

Man that YT algarithm sucks then.... NO WAY anyone would confuse me with a pirate!

Matt wears a Wheel of TIme hoodie and a silly pirate hat and wig.

Matthew Murdick@matthewmurdick· Feb 5

HOW do algarithms work exactly? I was just watch @theflickerverse.bsky.social live and after it's over my YT page gives me this.... something I would NOT likely watch!

Matt's YoutTube homepage shows a reaction video for Pirates of the Caribbean - the video thumbnail is encircled in red.

I'm eating whatever the band is served at the gigs...hence I'm playing keyboards this weekend... I also playing this in my spare time for arranging purposes.... (I made a goal of making FOUR GOOD parodies this year - so tha means I probably have to make about 15 parodies to get four good ones)

Matthew Murdick@matthewmurdick· Jan 18

Yay! Got my calendar(s - yes I ordered TWO)! Thanks @malkiertalks.com ! #WoT #WheelOfTime #WoTSkies
