ost

This is from “Mitchiko And Hatchin”. it’s not on the OST playlist. Season 1 Episode 16

First, Google "Call of Duty Nuketown Shoot Heads off Mannequins." Also, how many games do you think are in the Call of Duty series? Spoiler Alert: it's triple the number that Joseph thinks, lol. Join Willie and Taylor as they answer his questions about the long-running series.

In this episode, we dig into the main entries in the Call of Duty series. Joseph has a lot of questions because he has no idea how many games exist or how they're all connected. We chat about celebrities featured in the series—apparently, Snoop Dogg is a playable character—tongue twist our way through the complicated naming convention and get lost in the developer battle between Infinity Ward, Treyarch, and Sledgehammer Games. They're mentions of Nuketowm, nazi zombies, the infamous "No Russian" mission, and Hans Zimmer. Later in the episode, Willie asks Joseph if his military experience affected his desire to play Call of Duty, and we wrap with a mini celebration for reaching a small milestone for the podcast. (Reload SFX)

Note from Willie: As mentioned towards the top of the episode, I think it’s worth noting that Call of Duty can be seen as propaganda for the U.S. military, and it’s worth thinking about what happens when the fictional world is so closely tied to the real world and puts you in the middle of war as the hero. It’s something that warrants discussion but that’s not really the focus of this episode/podcast but I did want to include some links for reference.

I mentioned high ranking state officials on the advisory board at Activision Blizzard (the publisher of the Call of Duty games). It would be more correct to say that they have former high ranking government officials on their leadership team. What I was trying to sum up quickly is that there are some ties between Activision Blizzard and former government officials. There’s nothing intrinsically wrong with that but it does make me wonder how much sway the leadership team has on what is or isn’t included in a Call of Duty game. I’ve linked a few staff bios below:

Frances F. Townsend

Brian Bulatao

Grant Dixton

One of the non-profit boards that Frances Townsend is on is the Atlantic Council, an American think tank in the field of international affairs. The Atlantic Council has additional ties to former Call of Duty staff.

Chance Glasco

Dave Anthony - Art of Future Warfare series announcement of Dave Anthony as a Nonresident Fellow.

The military-entertainment complex: Call of Duty makers have close ties with the Pentagon

Call of Duty as an engagement tool:

How the Military Uses Call of Duty As A Recruitment Tool

U.S. Army Planned to Pay Streamers Millions to Reach Gen-Z Through Call of Duty

Call of Duty Controversies and “re-writing” of history:

Call of Duty Creators Say Oliver North Helped Make Their Game More Authentic

That time Castro appeared in Call of Duty, angering Cuba

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s Highway of Death controversy, explained

Correction:

At 44:55 in the podcast I mention a Call of Duty game that was potentially set in 2075 with the primary conflict being with China. After further research, I can’t verify that statement with anything but a questionable source so I’ve chosen not to link any article.

(Spoiler Alert for Black Ops 2) It’s also worth noting that Black Ops 2 campaign takes place in two timelines, the late 1980s and 2025. One of the conflicts in that game is a new Cold War between a Chinese-led faction called the Strategic Defense Coalition and a U.S.-led NATO. One of the four endings leads to an alliance between the U.S. and China, ending the new Cold War.

What do you do when your very brief career as a Jedi Knight apprentice comes to a screeching halt cause the Empire wants to execute you? You turn your broken lightsaber into a microphone and start a fucking rock band!!

This episode of Visions was truly a fun watch. Angsty teen dreams of rock-stardom and winning over the hearts of your adversaries with your music; needless to say, it was very relatable to our infamous podcast hosts and warmed their hearts with feelings of nostalgia.

That being said, the music wasn't very "Star Wars" but it was certainly enjoyable. All the themes for the band of protagonists were great and fit the characters really well. They were just so short. We wanted more!

Without further ado, time to join in the adventurous feelings of rock n' roll youth!

Break out the hippie crack cause this anime is TRIPPY. Seriously, I don't think it would be inappropriate to serve this anime with a helping of psilocybin mushrooms and a side of whip-its... Just make sure you've got a healthy state of mind cause this show is brutal and freaky enough to send you spiraling into a bad trip.

Okay, maybe we'll save the psychedelics for the OST.

Dorohedoro translates to "mud-sludge" in english and the music unit that composed the score, (K)Now_NAME, did a phenomenal job capturing the setting and emotional feel of "The Hole," the fictional city where most of the Dorohedoro plot takes place. "The Hole" acts as a kind of sewer or gutter where the litter, scum and magical waste of the sorcery world ends up creating chaos for the poor citizens that live there.  Between the industrial percussion, dark yet mystifying music beds, organized noise, and synthesized instrumentation that felt organic, the composers nailed the world building in this score. From Black Sabbath, Deftones and Slipknot to Billie Eilish and classic horror film scores, you can hear all the musical influences from piece to piece yet the music still feels incredibly unique.

If you aren't already impressed, (K)Now_NAME also composed and arranged the OP and all 6 ending sequences as well, working hand in hand with the author of the manga, Q Hayashida, who wrote all the lyrics.

Dorohedoro is without a doubt interesting and just downright weird. The story hooks you in, the characters are very well written and the music was super fun to analyze. So, without further ado, let's dive into "The Hole."

The 1000 Year Blood War Arc is just around the corner, so we decided that it would be a great time to bring on the Ban-kai and board the Bleach band wagon!!

Que the nostalgia! Seriously, so many throw backs and memories from the mid 00's while listening to the audio that made up the first ~18 months of this iconic anime. Like Naruto, Bleach is a member of "The Big Three" and similarly is a bit hit or miss when it comes to the team's musical decision making. However, unlike Naruto, part 1 of Bleach contained much more successful OP's and ED's. As a matter of fact, 7 of the 8 OP/ED sequences landed in Oricon's top #40, 4 of them peaked in the top #10, 3 were top #5 and 1 (the very first OP) went straight to #1 and stayed in the top #20 for almost 6 months. Pretty damn impressive.

The OST was a lot of fun to analyze, especially because all of those pieces were just so damn recognizable and uniquely "Bleach." We did get a bit critical, though, after learning of the jazz background and vast experience that composer Shiro Sagisu had under his belt going into this production. We did our best to not be overly judgmental of the experimental nature of some of these arrangements, but even knowing the music production tech of the times they certainly could have made better compositional and track mixing decisions (like dialing back on the often overused plastic sounding synthesized instruments).

That being said, we think it's a very important OST for anime fans to listen to! So throw on those kimonos, unsheathe your zanpakuto, and lets to a ride the reishi realms of the mid 2000s!!

Rana Fonk les trae lo mejor del soundtrack de la 4ta temporada de Stranger Things. Desde Kate Bush, pasando por Kiss y Talking Heads. Nostalgia y música que nos salvó la vida.

Well this one passes the OST rating with flying colors compared to the previous one's we've listened to! Wow. Yoshihiro Ike is a musical lord because damn...he got right to the point with these tracks and had us entranced.

He isn't a God compared to original creator, Osamu Tezuka, though. I think we spent just as much time talking about Tezuka and Queen Bee (Ziyoou-vachi) as we did the OST this time. There's just so much information and cool shit happening in this episode ya'll!

This remake of the 1969 anime is jam packed with action, emotional damage (queue meme), and beautiful music. This is something Garrett and Emily can most certainly agree on.

Please check this shit out...ESPECIALLY if you haven't seen it yet! Go watch it on Amazon Video and THEN come back to listen to our musical breakdown. Peace out y'all!

Our most raw, unedited, "no fuggs given" episode so far. It was just one of those kinda weeks, ya know?

*WARNING* This episode contains quite a few SPOILERS, so if you haven't seen this awesome movie DO NOT LISTEN!

If you were fortunate enough to catch this movie in theaters then you already know just how BAD ASS of a production it was. Especially the music. This OST was sooo much better than the one for the series which really caught Garrett off guard because it was the exact same audio team!

They constantly kept us on the edge of our seats with this emotional musical roller coaster. No, roller coaster is a massive understatement. This was more like a scene out of a sci-fi movie where the protagonist exits hyperspace right into an asteroid field and they have to avoid dying while moving at breakneck speeds.

This OST was all over the place. And we don't mean from one piece to the next, we mean abrupt, "hard-left" changes in the middle of 1-2 minute pieces. Experimental, fundamental, dramatic, moving, and just down right fun, yet somehow they still maintained that level of mature restraint throughout each composition that screams professionalism.

But, for as much as we enjoyed analyzing this OST, it still was missing a couple elements that would have let it compete with the S tier, God tier, upper echelon of film scoring.

Grab them phones and let's listen!!

It's the first episode of Season TWO, y'all!! We are back!

Yes, I know we went on a much longer hiatus than we originally anticipated, but hopefully you didn't curse us too much. Even if you did, we're just going to channel all that cursed energy into this episode! That's right, this week we are jamming out to Jujutsu Kaisen and serving up a saucy review of season 1's sonic sorcery.

There was a lot of audio to unpack from this Anime --2 OPs, 2 EDs, and over 2.5 hours of an OST-- and we listened to all of it. Quite honestly, this is one of our favorite new-gen Animes and although we had a ton of compliments, we had quite a few critiques as well. The audio team for this project is definitely a top tier, A-level team. The sonic realm that they built for a "cursed world" is a powerful domain that truly captures the audience in its expansion. Some of the musics they composed are genuine masterpieces. I don't know if it was a time constraint, the pressure from the studio to meet deadlines, or just a lack of focus on some very key moments of the show, but there were quite a few "dropped the ball" moments when listening to these songs in context. That ultimately lead to our final verdict when scoring this audio.

This season of the Anime Noise Podcast we have developed a new rating system for our anime reviews. Everything we review will be ranked on a 7★ [star] scale...if you don't understand why then you're too young to listen to this podcast lol

Strap on the cans, let's jam!

Der Westen scheint geeint dem russischen Angriff auf die Ukraine entgegen zu stehen.  Damit herrscht einmal mehr ein Krieg in Europa mit zwei altbekannten Fronten. Der demokratische Westen gegen den autokratisch geprägten Osten. 

Warum ist diese Unterscheidung eigentlich so klar? Was heisst es heute «westlich» zu sein – und warum ist das für Russland und für China so eine grosse Gefahr? 

Diese Fragen beantwortet Christof Münger, Chef des Auslandsredssorts bei Tamedia in einer neuen Folge «Apropos». Mit Gastgeber Philipp Loser spricht er über die Ursprünge der Demokratie in Europa und warum der Kampf der Systeme immer wieder von Neuem beginnt.

This week we dove REAL hard into the gory, Halloween vibes with this very bloody and freaky anime! The OST is nothing short of true horror although we don't think the OP and ED matched what everything else put down.

We apologize in advance for the lightning. However, with a little bit of tinkering on Garrett's end, we made it work. It's the least he could do after being so afraid of the lightning. :) Hehe

If you haven't seen Another yet, please give this anime some love this October because it is the perfect way to get into the season, as long as you don't mind a lot of bloody, gruesome, brutal deaths. Then come back around and listen to us break down the OST that was filled with rule-breaking goodness and the right kind of vibes to send shivers up your spine.

Let us know what you think!

This week we are reviewing High School of the Dead!! An absolutely perfect segue out of our extra ecchi escapades and into the horror filled happenings of Halloween!

This series is a roller coaster of ups and downs. From Takashi's tent in his pants constantly getting ruined by zombie attacks to the awesome OP and album of ED's, but a "D" grade soundtrack, AND we got to witness a super kick ass first season, but the story might be forever left unfinished due to Sato, the author of the manga, tragically passing away from heart disease.

Although there are rumors of a second season going back into production, we certainly aren't getting our hopes up, but Kishida Kyoudan & The Akeboshi Rockets just re-recorded the OP so who knows?

Go dim the lights and crank the stereo. It's time to kick off spooky season in style!!
