The Thirteenth Hour Podcast #366: Adding a Synth Layer to "I'm Here, You're Not" and Reading from Dragon Fall, by Lee J. Hindle, Part 2 (1984)

Originally aired on August 15, 2022.This week, we’re doing two things - adding to a track we started in episode 364 and reading another segment from Dragon Fall by Lee J. Hindle.  The track I'll be adding to is for the next Thirteenth Hour soundtrack album.  It's an additional layer to complement what we did before.  I also came up with a variation of it for another part of the book that uses the same central theme; just a different voicing. We will also be starting Chapter 2 of the 1984 novel, Dragon Fall. It's pure 80s overload!More coming in subsequent weeks!∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞This summer, if you're looking for an adult of child mask, check out Thirteenth Hour mask combo package on Etsy.  This fall, it became really hard to find good quality masks for our kids as they were going back to school.  There are still long wait times for some of the companies we like best, so I thought, why not try to find an alternative?  I eventually settled on the triple layer masks available for printing on by the company Flashbay.  They were one of the few companies I found that were transparent about their third party safety data (Junior: https://static.flashbay.com/images/certificates/Junior_REACH.pdf?v=1617870020, Adult: https://static.flashbay.com/images/certificates/Sky_Performance.pdf?v=1603078812) which is nice.  I was impressed by how well these masks performed on the filtration tests, even after repeat washings.  Also, I really liked how both the ears and nose piece could be adjusted for a good fit.The Thirteenth Hour mask combo also comes with Thirteenth Hour hand sanitizer! (But of course.)There are now Thirteenth Hour toys!  If you'd like to pick up one of these glow in the dark figures for yourself, feel free to email me or go to the Etsy store I set up (https://www.etsy.com/shop/ThirteenthHourStudio) and get them there.
