Getting a new video ready. Strapping in for the “long haul” while I wait for it to encode then upload.
A computer screen displays a video editing timeline in Adobe Premiere Pro. Multiple image files labeled “TR_02.png” to “TR_11.png” are shown in the upper track, with a video file named “20250419_133502.mp4” on the middle track and a green audio waveform below. A pop-up window in the center reads “Encoding 20250419_133502” with a progress bar showing 10% complete and an estimated time remaining of 9 minutes, 25 seconds.

Hawaiian Holiday by Kaiwaza

This album exemplifies mid-century fascination of tropical escapism and stands as a unique intersection of budget-label production and high-tech experimentation with 35mm magnetic film recording.
Album cover for Hawaiian Holiday by Wyncote Records. The design features a ukulele adorned with two pink flower leis arranged in a heart shape, set against a solid black background. At the top, bold text reads “35mm Film – The Best in Recorded Sound” and “STEREO,” emphasizing the album’s unique recording format.

We mustn’t dwell. No, not today. Not on #RexManningDay
A colorful, retro-style image celebrating “Rex Manning Day” on April 8. The background features vibrant purple rays with confetti and a yellow-striped panel. A black-and-white headshot of a smiling man with 70s-style hair and sideburns is framed by neon outlines. Bold text reads “IT’S REX MANNING DAY!” with the date “08 APRIL” in yellow above. A green star outlined in pink adds to the pop-art aesthetic.

Ever seen a record shaped like this? Looks like Texas is spinning up some tunes! And if you hear a little background noise, that’s just more records getting a good scrub in the ultrasonic bath. Fresh finds for future episodes of Finnley’s Audio Adventures!

35 years ago They Might Be Giants released the album “Flood”.

So here’s to 35 years of making a little birdhouse in your soul and finding yourself in Istanbul (Not Constantinople) with Particle Man.

The #Christmas videos are popular. I’m actually quite surprised the #RadioShack #records are the most popular of the bunch. I’m at 818 subscribers. Can we make it to 1000 by the end of the year?

Coming soon to Finnley’s Audio Adventures - I’m swimming deep into recorded audio history with these 78s
The image shows a stack of 78 RPM records, with some in their original sleeves and others without. The records are in varying conditions, with visible wear on some sleeves and the vinyl surfaces. The record on top has a prominent label displaying the brand “Conqueror,” adding a vintage aesthetic to the collection. The stack rests on a wood-textured surface, suggesting a careful handling of these fragile, collectible records.
