Where do the track titles on the isolated score come from?

Chrono Score Guy said...

I tried to use existing track titles for much of the music, otherwise I created the names based on what is shown in the film. I'm unaware of any cue lists that have indicated proper cue titles.

Hi, so I'm just posting this for informational purposes. So I used Audacity's "Label Sounds" tool to separate the isolated score into tracks (I set the threshold level to -70.0 dB. I tried some different levels but -70 seemed to work best). This is what I came up with:

I - Untitled (:01.14-:16.29)
I - Main Title (:27.04-2:12.35)
I - Flik’s Machine (2:14.02-5:46.86)
I - Seed to Tree / Red Alert (6:53.52-9:43.42)
I - Hopper and His Gang (10:24.02-15:17.98)
I - Untitled (15:19.49-16:11.45)
I - Flik Leaves (17:17.04-19:52.9)
I - Untitled (19:54.73-20:24.52)
I - Circus Bugs / Clown Waltz / Manto the Magnificent (20:25.6-25:57.7)
I - Untitled (26:00.63-26:07.96)
I - The City (26:08.15-27:30.91)
I - Robin Hood / Flying Home / Return to Colony (27:35.32-33:45.67)
I - Flik’s Return (33:52.37-35:34.96)
I - Untitled (35:48.17-36:35.55)
I - Untitled (36:57.55-37:36.13)
I - Untitled (37:36.44-37:39.9)
I - Untitled (37:40.2-37:43.44)
I - Untitled (37:47.96-38:02.05)
I - Untitled (38:03.31-38:15.47)
I - Loser (38:35.02-41:18.22)
I - Dot’s Rescue (41:19.35-45:19.42)
I - Atta (46:00.45-47:07.41)
I - Building the Bird (47:09.54-54:41.16)
I - Untitled (55:00.36-55:07.92)
I - Untitled (55:48.35-59:20.14)
I - Untitled (59:20.87-59:40.78)
I - Untitled (59:43.33-1:00:06.21)
I - Untitled (1:00:13.99-1:01:03.15)
I - Don’t Come Back / The Last Grain (1:01:16.13-1:03:05.68)
I - Grasshoppers’ Return (1:03:24.28-1:06:24.63)
I - Untitled (1:06:30.37-1:06:53.54)
I - Untitled (1:07:02.97-1:08:05.28)
I - Convincing Flik (1:08:31.8-1:11:15.98)
I - Untitled (1:11:28.68-1:11:31.82)
I - Untitled (1:11:35.64-1:11:43.66)
I - Untitled (1:12:02.14-1:14:44.99)
I - The Bird Flies (1:14:50.37-1:17:29.92)
I - Untitled (1:17:39.72-1:18:57.19)
I - Ants Fight Back (1:19:06.07-1:21:18.74)
I - Victory (1:21:42.86-1:24:17.13)
I - All Is Well / The Time of Your Life (1:24:20.58-1:34:52.67)

Note that some tracks, such as "Dot’s Rescue" and "Ants Fight Back" were separated into two parts by Audacity so I had to export them manually. Also, I left the tracks with unknown titles as "Untitled."

My FYC promo contains dialogue sound effects in track 25, "The Time of Your Life" (in the part where the outtakes are). Do you have an FYC promo that doesn't contain dialogue/SFX in that track? Because, if you don't, then shouldn't the DVD be used for "The Time of Your Life" in the main list?

Chrono Score Guy said...

Good call, I replaced the FYC version with the isolated score instead. The middle part is purely instrumental.

Hi, I've been working on a spreadsheet comparing the releases of this score. I have the commercial release, the for your consideration promo, and the 2003 DVD. However, I don't have the cast and crew promo, so, would you be willing to answer several questions I have about this release? I have quite a few

Chrono Score Guy said...

Sure, go ahead and post some questions. I'll do my best.

Anonymous said...

Thank you, here they are:
-For C5, C8, C9 and C25, what are the timestamps for the individual cues?
-What is the difference between C5 and IS7-8? Is it different at ~3:35 and ~4:35-end?
-What is the difference between C25 and P23? Is it just more music at the beginning? Does it contain any music that it not on any of the other versions?
-On the DVD, there is a section of "Convincing Flik" that is different from what is on the FYC promo. Does the cast and crew promo contain the FYC or DVD version?

Chrono Score Guy said...

-The timestamps for the tracks are listed above under the Cast and Crew Promo section
-CS5 has an alternate section from 3:34-3:42 and has an alternate ending not heard in the film
-C25 has an intro not heard in the film, that's it
-For Convincing Flik the FYC and cast and crew promo are the same, only the isolated score is different

Thank you for the info. For the first question, I meant to ask what parts of the track the various cues are in. For example:
C8A [0:00-?:??] - P.T. Flea Circus
C8C [?:??-?:??] - Clown Waltz
C8F [?:??-End] - Water Drops
...etc.

Chrono Score Guy said...

C5 :00-1:09 matches P5
C5 1:09-2:03is unused and contains a different intro than S5.
C5 2:03-End matches S5 :11-End

C8 :00-:19 is unheard elsewhere
C8 :19-1:14 matches P7,
C8 1:14-2:30 matches P8
C8 2:40-3:45 matches P9
C8 2:50-3:33.75 also matches S7 :00-:43


S7 1:08.6-End matches C8 5:21-5:38
S7 :43.17 -1:08.6 is an alternate (e.g. album) version of C8 4:45-5:21.17

C9 is identical to S8. The split in cues would be at 1:15.8. P10 only has the fade-out and silence at the end added on.

S19 and P23 are identical

C25 :00-:15.3 matches S19 :00.57-0:16
C25 :18.7-1:17.26 matches S19 :35.32-1:09.29
S 1:09.29-1:11.46 overlaps the two separated cues noted in C25
C25 1:35.34-1:47.94 matches S19 1:11:14-1:23.74
C25 1:47.94-End matches S19 1:27.55-End
I49 1:27.35-1:38.24 have more pulsating beat but otherwise matches C25

I put two images at the bottom of the post (temporarily) for a visual if that helps.

Now my question for you, why such interest in this?

Chrono Score Guy said...

Thanks for the response. If you want to go over any more, feel free to post your email address and I’ll email you so we can chat back-and-forth. And no worries, I won’t post it. :)
