The Man In the Herringbone Hat: REmixed

Out of all the readings of Rian Johnson's "The Man In the Herringbone Hat," I think that the two that work best when REmixed together are those done by Channing and Sat's grandfather.

My overall goal was to give it more of a live performance sound. Think "A Prairie Home Companion" (see notes at the end of this caption for audio needs.)

These particular readings work together well, in my opinion, because Sat's grandfather has such a storytelling voice; one you'd hear outside an old tavern recounting an epic tale such as this.

Channing's is different because he used multiple voices. I used his Southern drawl sections for the dialogue, and Sat's grandfather serves more as the narrator.

I'd love someone to take this and play with it. I keep imagine an audio reenactment faintly heard in the background, as if it's being performed on stage. I imagine hearing the train, the cards, background ambiance... All kinds of cool sounds (and subtle to the production.)

Anyone want to give that a shot?
