Not the ENTIRE Mizzy collection - the GHOST AND MR. CHICKEN and RELUCTANT ASTRONAUT will still be available.

That's not good. Copyright problems? Percepto folding? ???
RUMOR CONTROL: Percepto isn't folding. Just because FIVE CDs are being put on moritorium doesn't mean the company is collapsing!! There are still a dozen other releases, you know......

Well, the site said it was now due in 2 to 3 weeks and that was about a month or more ago.
If it got held up in more pressing problems, or issues, we may never get it at all and Percepto might feel a bite in their wallet that might drive then Supercollector.

I ordered a load of titles from Percepto, and another order from Buysoudtrax.com.
Both orders seemed to be coming from yahoo.com, and both said in 7/10 days.
That was 6 weeks ago....

Update:
They now say TBLT is due in December.
Someone in the guestbook said "...it's a shame they are going under..."

The Toaster exists. I have it. I got an advance copy two weeks ago, complete with booklet. It's a nice package, and the booklet is what you've come to expect from Percepto. The sound is good and there's lots of music. I rather liked the Van Dyke Parks songs, but I must say I didn't love Mr. Newman's score.

I have yet to go WOW for anything by David Newman. The other Newmans have wowed me on various occasions, but DAVID has yet to live up to his family legacy. Not saying his music is bad, just not incredible.
Perhaps when he gets a non-comedic, A-list films to compose for....
What do you mean "DAVID has yet to live up to his family legacy" ?
Could you explain that ?
Music for comedies can be very good music.
Over the past 20 years Newman certainly has composed more "incredible" and amazingly inventive scores (often to less than amazing films) than many other composers.
Unfortunately most of his music hasn`t been released.
Within the Hollywood filmmusic community David Newman is (rightfully) concidered to be one of the best composers working today, in terms of craft and atristry.
BTW, also the late Jerry Goldsmith thought of
David Newman as one of the most talented modern filmcomposers.
In addition to the excellent Newman scores mentioned by SBD, I also recommend the following terrific music by David Newman :
- 102 Dalmatians (one of my all time favorites)
- Paradise (lovely americana)
- My Father The Hero (the best "vacation score" ever. IMO)
- Mighty Ducks
- Other People`s Money
- The Freshman
- 1001 Nights
