    [RERUN] [Ch 1] "Noise from the Hearts of Nerds" - C1E10: Mishmash Monday - vol. 1 (orig. rel. 05/22/17)

    2025 Rerun Notes: In commemoration of this month release of the last-ever Mishmash Monday on Channel 1, I thought I'd rerun the first two installments of the series - both from all the way back in 2017 (Season 1 of the show). Therefore, all the obvious caveats on "absolutely atrocious production quality" and blah blah blah (especially on C1E10, the earlier of the two releases). Though this rerun is "officially" and "canonically" the first "Mishmash Monday" (free play) episode in Nerd Noise Radio history, it is really "Mishmash Monday in name only" as it wasn't truly a free play. Instead, it was designed with a very specific purpose and with each track housing a very specific meaning. Though I explain and elaborate fully in a 2019 special expanded rebroadcast of this episode we called "Chandlerfest", which I'll link to below, for now, the tl;dr is that this mixtape was actually made in commemoration for a friend who died entirely too young in Dec 2016, and whose absence we still feel regularly from here in 2025. When I got the news, I left work, went home, and turned my grief into tortured energy, and made this mixtape, with the design philosophy being to use the tracks and the particular arch of the track order to tell the story of the emotions of those of us left behind in his wake as we processed the news of his departure. With this being a 2017 episode, all the obvious caveats on "absolutely atrocious production quality" (especially episodes from the first half of 2017, which were even worse than those from the second half.) But content-wise, this early outing remains one of the most important episodes of Nerd Noise Radio....ever.

    [RERUN] [Ch 1] "Noise from the Hearts of Nerds" - C1E16: Mishmash Monday - vol. 2 (orig. rel. 10/09/17)

    2025 Rerun Notes: In commemoration of this month release of the last-ever Mishmash Monday on Channel 1, I thought I'd rerun the first two installments of the series - both from all the way back in 2017 (Season 1 of the show). Therefore, all the obvious caveats on "absolutely atrocious production quality" and blah blah blah (especially on C1E10, the earlier of the two releases). Though today's rerun is officially, canonically the "second" Mishmash Monday, it's actually the first "for real" Mishmash Monday. The first "actual free play episode". Not that it was produced before C1E10, but released later, but that C1E10 was a "Mishmash Monday" in name only, and was definitely not a true free play. I'll explain in that episode's rerun. But for now, numbers and dates aside, this was our first actual "free play" episode in NNR history. And even though the production quality is so absolutely horrible, I still regard this episode as an excellent collection of music! Easily in our top 50% of show history, and perhaps even top 25%.

    Today's "F-isode" is the soundtrack to the upcoming indie game "MAKRANA" designed, developed, and scored by Matt Miller of Des Moines-based Chronarian Games. Matt sits in with St. John at Nerd Noise Studios for a Channel 2-style in-person conversation to discuss the soundtrack and various other matters of varying degrees of relevance. ;-) All tracks from the game MAKRANA, an upcoming game by Chronarian Games for PS5, XBSX and probably other platforms as well. All tracks composed, arranged, and performed by Matt Miller. Tracklist A1) "Production Disclaimer" Earcatcher (St. John on the now NNR-customary $400 Shure SM7B Mic) - 00:00:00 A2) "Episode Opener" Earcatcher (St. John on the now long-deprecated $100 AudioTechnica AT2020 Mic which was the mic St. John used on NNR from 2017-2022) - 00:00:59 01) "ZENITH" (game and track titles all capitalized for stylistic purposes by developer)  a) Music - 00:01:12  b) Discussion and Top-of-Show Business (St. John and Matt sharing a single AT2020) - 00:04:50 02) "OBSERVE"  a) Music - 00:29:39  b) Discussion (all voice recordings from here on out using that same single AT2020) - 00:33:27 03) "REFLECT"  a) Music - 00:47:59  b) Discussion (our shortest conversation of the episode by far!) - 00:51:47 04) "QUADRANT"  a) Music - 00:59:04  b) Discussion - 01:03:21 05) "DEVIATE"  a) Music - 01:28:28  b) Discussion and End-of-Show Business - 01:33:51   B1) Outtakes - 02:04:08 Total Episode Runtime: 02:10:02 Matt and Chronarian Games can be found at www.chronariangames.com as well as on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, BlueSky, Mastodon, YouTube, and X. Special Thanks to Erin Miller, Nora Miller, and Jodee Wedgeworth (aka "St. Jodee") for making this recording session / episode possible.  Produced in a mix of Audacity and Ardour in Fedora Linux on a 2023-model Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 gaming laptop (docked in a "desktop" context) using the aforementioned mics, a Focusrite 4i4 XLR-to-USB audio interface, and in the case of the SM7B, a Cloudlifter in-line signal booster. No alcohol was involved in this recording - however, I do think sleep deprivation may have been a factor! ;-) :-D Enjoy!!

    [RERUN] [Ch 1] "Noise from the Hearts of Nerds" - NERD NOISE CROSSOVERS: “C1E64: ThreeFer Thursday” (orig rel. 05/12/22)

    2025 Rerun Notes: A very unique episode in show history, the only time we ever did a "ThreeFer". It's a bit of a long episode, and this was back when I was still using a cheaper mic and less sophisticated production techniques, but I still remain very proud of this episode from a content perspective. Original 2022 show notes below! ------------------------------------------------------------------ Today’s broadcast is C1E64 for Nerd Noise Crossovers, Thursday, 05/12/2022. Today’s Crossover is "ThreeFer Thursday" - which is, among standard format Ch 1 episodes for "just ordinary occasions", our longest episode to date.

    [RERUN] C1E86: "The Celeste Soundtrack" [Masters of VGM] - orig rel. 06/15/2024 (see 2025 show note addendum!)

    [2025 Addendum] Our third and final rerun which we’re releasing for July, and third and final rerun celebrating the memory of Masters of VGM (“MoVGM”), and our third and final of my bids to drum up excitement for the “VGM Hall of Fame” (“HoF”)  series spearheaded by Alex “The Messenger” Messenger of “A VGM Journey” (https://terraplayer.com/shows/a-vgm-journey), Professor Tom from “Shujin Academy VGM Club” (https://terraplayer.com/shows/shujin-academy-vgm-club), and myself (as well as any other shows which have elected to join us in the time since my drafting this on July 2nd), we look, at last, to MoVGM’s final year: 2024. The Theme of 2024’s MoVGM was a focus on female and LGBTQIA+ (particularly trans) composers. And Nerd Noise Radio’s contribution for this year was a Channel 1 featuring the soundtrack to the game Celeste, composed by the fabulous trans composer Lena Raine. The pride connection goes even deeper, though, as the game was written and designed by Maddie Thorson, who is also trans, and upon whom the [also also trans] protagonist, Madelaine is also based. From a production standpoint, this is going to be pretty close to on par with a 2025 production as it is using all the same recording hardware, and most of the same production techniques, but may not quite match the current crop due to my using less sophisticated monitoring headphones resulting in a final mix which might be a tad on the “hot” side. Either way, it’s a showcase of great people making great music to a great game with a great message. So, we are quite pleased to present C1E86: “The Celeste Soundtrack” (originally released 06/15/2024). Enjoy ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Original Show Notes: Today’s broadcast is C1E86 for Soundtrack Saturday, June 15th, 2024.

    [RERUN] C2E13: "Songs of the Unsung" [Masters of VGM] - orig rel. 06/01/2023 (see 2025 show note addendum!)

    [2025 Addendum….sorry for the long-winded] Our second of three reruns which we’re releasing for July, and second of three reruns celebrating the memory of Masters of VGM (“MoVGM”), and the second of three of my bids to drum up excitement for the “VGM Hall of Fame” (“HoF”)  series spearheaded by Alex “The Messenger” Messenger of “A VGM Journey” (https://terraplayer.com/shows/a-vgm-journey), Professor Tom from “Shujin Academy VGM Club” (https://terraplayer.com/shows/shujin-academy-vgm-club), and myself (as well as any other shows which have elected to join us in the time since my drafting this on July 2nd) is just one of, this time, four contributions we made to the series that year. I’ll share links to the other three below, as well as two other bonus links which are acutely relevant to two of them (as well as to C1E96, our “fresh episode” from last month). The Theme of 2023’s MoVGM was sort of the opposite of the year prior. 2022’s theme was a celebration of “big named composers”, like Yuzo Koshiro or Nobuo Uematsu, or The Follin Brothers and so on. Names that probably EVERYBODY already knows, 2023’s theme was “unsung and undersung composers”. Names that were not nearly as well-known as they should be. And so, our Channel 2 contribution followed the same format and design philosophy of our 2022, only with the opposite theme. It’s a little longer, though, because in addition to the same “four and four” as before, we added a ninth and final pair - tracks by unknown composers”. Production notes on this episode relative to the 2022 rerun: by this time, two major changes had happened: 1) I had upgraded from the $100 RODE Podmic I had been using to the current $400 Shure SM7B that I use today, and 2) I had started actively editing out “Umm”s from our conversation. I can’t guarantee that I caught every single one of them. But they’ll certainly be much less present and much less invasive. It still won't rise to the level of a 2025 production (and sounds a little worse with the SM7B’s presence boost turned on at the time, which I’ve since turned off), but it comes appreciably closer than C2E8. Links to the other 2023 Nerd Noise Radio MoVGM contributions: C1E76: “The Big Sound of the Little Guy - vol. 2” (originally released 06/01/2023 - the episode which kicked off MoVGM 2023 at large): https://terraplayer.com/shows/nerd-noise-radio/ch-1-noise-from-the-hearts-of-nerds-c1e76-the-big-sound-of-the-little-guy--vol-2   Ch F: “Highlights from ‘Stray’” (originally released 06/29/2023): https://terraplayer.com/shows/nerd-noise-radio/channel-f-highlights-fromstray-masters-of-vgm   Ch F: Composer Mini-Focus: rayjkayj (originally released  07/26/2023 - also, this might’ve been the final MoVGM 2023 episode as well, meaning, I might’ve gotten to provide both “bookends” to that year’s celebration!) https://terraplayer.com/shows/nerd-noise-radio/channel-f-composer-minifocus-rayjkayj-masters-of-vgm   Lastly, two bonus links which relate to the above: 1) C1E30: Big Sound of the Little Guy - vol. 1 (originally released 09/14/2018 - apologies for the atrocious production quality and anemic intro, but the music collection itself is GREAT!) - not only is this obviously relevant to C1E76 above, but it’s also relevant to last month’s C1E96, which was (unofficially, but for all intents and purposes) “Big Sound of the Little Guy vol 3”: https://terraplayer.com/shows/nerd-noise-radio/nerd-noise-radio-channel-1-noise-from-the-hearts-of-nerds-podcast-c1e30-the-big-sounds-of-the-little-guy-vol-1   2) C1E73: “UNKAYJ THE RAYJ” (originally released ) - guest-hosted by rayjkayj himself, the above minifocus on rayjkayj was comprised of outtakes from this original episode: https://terraplayer.com/shows/nerd-noise-radio/ch-1-noise-from-the-hearts-of-nerds-c1e73-unkayj-the-rayj …and with that, I’ll leave you with C2E13: “Songs of the Unsung” (originally released 07/06/2023) - a title which I came up with, and if we’re being honest, I’m probably WAY too proud of!). :-D Enjoy!   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Original Show Notes: Today’s broadcast, for Theme Thursday, July 6th, 2023 is an episode of the Masters of VGM - season 2 (www.mastersofvgm.com) and is a focus on music from unsung and undersung composers - on an episode we’re calling “Songs of the Unsung”.   Tracklist:   01) John’s 1st composer (of 4): C418 (aka Daniel Rosenfeld)   John’s Track: Dreiton - Minecraft - Multiplatform Earcatcher - 00:00:00 Music - 00:00:07 Introduction - 00:08:16 Top of the Show pt 1 - 00:09:12 Discussion - 00:12:00 Top of the Show pt 2 - 00:14:19 Hugues’ Track: Enforcer Brittanica - Catacomb Snatch - PC Music - 00:28:44 Discussion - 00:32:23   02) Hugues’ 1st composer: Takahiko Abe   Hugues’ Track: Templo del Sol - Asuteka II - PC88 Music - 00:37:18: Discussion - 00:39:31 John’s Track: Machi - Susanoou Densetsu - PC Engine Music - 00:46:36 Discussion - 00:48:24   03) John’s 2nd composer: Soichi Terada   John’s Track: Subspace 2 - Fantavision 202X - PC Music - 00:56:06 Discussion - 00:59:27 Hugues’ Track: TV Tower - Ape Escape on the Loose - PSP Music - 01:03:30 Discussion - 01:06:54   04) Hugues’ 2nd composer: Katsumi Tanaka   Hugues’ Track: Memories of Puyo Puyo - Puyo Puyo CD - PC Engine Music - 01:11:09 Discussion - 01:13:25 John’s Track: Black Hole Anomalies - Space Megaforce - SNES Music - 01:19:17 Discussion - 01:21:41   05) John’s 3rd composer: Hikoshi Hashimoto   John’s Track: Zena Lan (Heavily Armored) - Cosmic Carnage - 32X Music - 01:23:57 Discussion - 01:25:50 Hugues’ Track: Halftime - Pat Riley Basketball - Genesis Music - 01:31:15 Discussion - 01:31:47   06) Hugues’ 3rd composer: Toshio Murai   Hugues’ Track: Office  Theme - Wall Street Kid - NES Music - 01:37:29 Discussion - 01:39:16 John’s Track: Stage 6 - Cyber Core - PC Engine Music - 01:43:31 Discussion - 01:45:01   07) John’s 4th composer: Joris de Man   John’s Track: Eternal Conceit - Horizon Forbidden West - PS4 / PS5 Music - 01:48:22 Discussion - 01:53:09 Hugues’ Track: Violet’s Theme - Black Belt Challenge - GBA Music - 02:02:56 Discussion - 02:04:59   08) Hugues’ 4th composer: Yoshihiko Miyazaki   Hugues’ Track: Search Break - JB Harold Murder Club - PC88 Music - 02:10:56 Discussion - 02:12:43 John’s Track: Dream of the Murder - Manhattan Requiem - LaserActive Music - 02:18:37 Discussion - 02:21:011   09) BONUS: “Unknown composers”!!!   John’s Track: Login Screen - N/A (System Music) - PS5 Music - 02:24:25 Discussion - 02:27:28 End of show discussion - 02:31:12 Masters of VGM shout-out - 02:34:26 Closing track Discussion - 02:36:13 Sign-off - 02:39:39 Hugues’ Track: Track 5 - Hyper Catalog - PC Engine Music - 02:39:48 Masters of VGM earcatcher (feat.
