ending with a short radio-like voicebit.

Hmm, are they similar to the (very Zoolook-sounding ones) at around 29m47s (or 32m13s), or the "burpy" ones mainly in the last 15 minutes or so of the track?

I wonder if anyone has ever tried to match those unedited WFC uploads to the videos from July 14th 1990 right before the PLD concert started. I mean, those videos probably don't have a full uninterrupted recording of the track for 75 minutes or so, but I guess that's where you could get the best comparisons from (maybe).

(Also, I don't think enough people give WFC credit w.r.t. being a Roland D-50 masterpiece, I think someone (AERO62, IIRC) found a lot of the WFC sounds from the Roland D-50 basic presets )

No, the voicebit seems one of a kind, very short and having two syllables.
After the voicebit the voice returns saying a slowed down ''Emotion''. These are not the ''burpy'' ones ( I know what sound you mean by that

I'd be interested in hearing how that YT link sounded, if anyone can PM me, I'd be very thankful.

Yeah. Um. Which link are you talking about ? I think there was one on yt and it contained a copy-pasted 15 minutes for sure. But perhaps it's not the same? Can you share the file ?

Also I think this might just be a vinyl version added to the CD. Vinyl version is slightly different/shortened .

[AERO62]

Listen for instance to the portion at 62'00 - 62'20. This contains some faint sounds that sound like distant shots, ending with a short radio-like voicebit.
If that would be a copied part, where in the original 46 minutes can you hear that back?

You can hear that sequence at 16:40 mark on the vinyl version of WFC.

[AERO62]

As close to WFC as it can probably get... And a lot longer than just 45 min

Oh, I love those sounds! <3

[AERO62]

I believe I have found real fragments that didn't make the cut to WFC. Coming up later today.

[shadow]

Looking forward to hearing it!

[Pat Gleeson]

Same here

[AERO62]

Unless I'm imagining it I hear something new in those first 16 minutes. Maybe at about 12 minute mark. All this time the files have been right under our noses in the FTP database folders...

I guess one idea could be to use a vocal remover AI thing like this one https://vocalremover.org on one of the hours-long pre-concert PLD videos (or just listening to WFC in those videos really carefully, ignoring the audience/city noises) and see if anything "new" turns up

But the link above already has something new. Check after the 12 minute mark.

[Finaero]

Yeah, I meant that as a possible way of discovering even more new stuff

[AERO62]

If you're referring to the preparation video that's about 3 hours long, I've listened to it a lot and it's just got some echoes there... Maybe I should relisten or reupload it again.
