Anyone else have 'Villain Era' from season 2 of We Are Lady Parts on repeat, or is it just me?

Excited to share a sneak peek into my upcoming project! I’ve been recording mysterious, dark sounds, all captured in high fidelity at 192kHz 32bit. The plan? Pitch them down a couple of octaves and stretch them out for an otherworldly audio experience. 🎤🎧🌌 #AudioAlchemy #sounddesign #cinematic #composer #gameaudio #gamedev #recording #sound #microphone #recording #audio

I've been blown away by how good the sound has gotten for movies in 2023. Immersive audio has really taken over now. However, what I respect more than anything is when sound designers can actually make a movie better with sound. The differences in sound design between a drama and a horror are two different things. Having crazy overheads in one wouldn't work in the other. So, even though I'm amazed by BIG-BASS, surround sound, and height effects in films, the sound must have integrity with what's on-screen. I think that is an art form within itself, and this is why my number 1, 2, and 3 spots were so difficult to pick. They represent the best in sound design for the genres that they exist in. It has also shown me that an uncompressed 5.1 track can still shock the hell of me!
Thanks for reading, I hope you like my list, and what are your best-sounding movies on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray for 2023?

This blew me away today: a singing cow gate!
Geophony (strong wind) meets antrophony (cow gate), with a sprinkle of biophony (passing jackdaws and a late bumblebee!).
I was taken aback at how musical this sounded as the wind flowed through the nooks & crannies. Just beautiful

These beetles (Anoplotrupes stercorosus) have two pairs of stridulation organs that they can play simultaneously or successively. Just like a violin, so I chose my @EarthworksAudio QTC50 to place it in the horse dropplings. #earthworksaudio #earthworksmicrophones #fieldrecording

Did you know the snow leopard is one big cat that couldn’t roar even if it wanted to? That’s right. Due to the physiology of their throat, roaring is out of the question. But they can make a wide range of other sounds including a purr, mew, hiss, growl, moan, yowl and a ‘chuff’.

Lately there have been a lot of scams of fake websites offering audio plugins at inane prices. There is a fake Fab Filter site ending in .store, beware, this is simply a scam and hopefully nobody falls for it. The real Fab Filter site ends in .com. This is happening more and more
