Last month, along with being featured in both the New York Times and Forbes for our work on West Side Story, Audionamix was also highlighted in Film and Sound Magazine. The article entitled, Path of Discovery: West Side Story at 50, discusses the history of the beloved musical as well as its most recent revival using our revolutionary technology. In particular this article told the story of the challenges faced in producing this rendition of West Side Story.

Eleonor Sandresky, a New York composer, producer and performer, who also serves as the Bernstein Office’s Licensing Associate, was faced with the daunting task of tracking down West Side Story’s original score. To her dismay, there were no musical stems and the original score had been displaced in several locations across the country. Then there was the matter of getting the project approved by MGM who own the rights to the film. After overcoming these challenges, the final obstacle was to separate the music from the score so it could be played with a live orchestra. With the the help of Chace Audio, A Deluxe Company, the Bernstein Office learned of our source separation technology and called Audionamix to see if our technology could provide the solution.

Audionamix rose to the occasion, separating the music from the original score and producing a pristine, a cappella version that could be accompanied by a live orchestra thus creating this new type of event cinema. The premiere was held in July at the Hollywood Bowl, and due to its success, is scheduled to be performed in venues across the globe. To read the full text article, please click here

The next performance of West Side Story will be held in Chicago on November 25-27th. If you are in the Chicago area over the Thanksgiving Holiday and are interested in seeing the ADX technology at work, please visit the Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s website at www.cso.org.

In the spirit of ghosts, goblins, and witches, Audionamix recently completed work on the hit television series, Charmed. Using ADX Music Dissociation service, Audionamix was able to separate the music from both the dialogue and effects tracks, allowing our client to replace the music with a more affordable solution for distribution in both Portugal and Brazil. By removing the musical cues that contained cost prohibitive music, our client was able re-release the title with less overhead, thus increasing the potential profit for those regions.

Music Dissociation is just one example of our technology’s potential. Recognized today as the ultimate solution when facing music licensing issues, this process has been shown to reduce cost by almost 75%.
