The Thirteenth Hour Podcast

In today's episode, I'm continuing what I started last week, working out "The Unicorn Theme" by Tangerine Dream from the Legend soundtrack. I worked out some of the basic notes last week, and this week I'm adding more as well as the left hand chords. Though not recorded in the podcast, while I was wrapping up the mixing of what I'd done, I remembered one of the other verses I'd forgotten. I did most of this in Bandlab, the DAW I've been working to learn this past fall. This ended up a great project to showcase the strength of a tool like this since I didn't need to rehearse the piece over and over until I could play it mistake-free like before. I could play and record little segments, one at a time, and essentially save my progress as I was going along. I may add to it in the coming weeks as I work out other parts of the theme, but I am pretty happy with what I managed to cobble together so far! This theme was definitely one of the influences behind the sound I was trying to create when making The Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, so it's actually long overdue that I finally try to figure out how to play it. I'm actually not sure why I didn't try before! Thanks for listening! ∞∞∞∞∞∞∞ Once Upon a Dream, the second Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, is now out in digital form and on CD!

In today's episode, I'm playing around with some music from one of my favorite soundtracks, Legend, using the score done by Tangerine Dream. There's a piece in there I have always liked, called "The Unicorn Theme" and the same melody and chords get used in the ending song for the theatrical release in a ballad with vocals done by Jon Anderson called "Loved by the Sun" with the Tangerine Dream synths in the background. When I first heard it, I thought it was an odd mix, with neither of them really fitting together, and I was always vaguely irritated they didn't just make "The Unicorn Theme" longer (the track on the score doesn't use all the bars heard in the film), but as I have gotten older, I have comes to really like "Loved by the Sun." It is not an easy song to sing nor play (at least for me), as it requires a pretty big range. I'm trying it today on the piano with just chords, which I found harder than the guitar, which I find easier to play for certain things (this being one of them). That said, I think it'd sound great on the piano blended in with the notes from "The Unicorn Theme" since that is essentially what they did in the film, if I recall. I'm going to play around with over the net week or so and see what I come up with.

In today's episode, my brother and I are wrapping up the role playing adventure we started last week based on a setting in his role playing game, Mappa Mundi. This week picks up after the main character, Axel, has fallen into a deep crevice in the ice. Will he emerge? What will he find in the icy depths below? There were supernatural creatures (below) above the rift - what about within it? Who knows what Axel will find in the depths below?! Thanks for listening! Watch for the compilation of these two parts on youtube coming soon. By the way, the track, "The Ice Giant," that I recently wrapped up is available on my Bandcamp page here. ∞∞∞∞∞∞∞ Once Upon a Dream, the second Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, is now out in digital form and on CD!

In today's episode, I'm starting the first of a two part adventure with my brother, the one I was making music tracks for the past few weeks. This is for a role playing adventure we recorded a few weeks ago based on a setting in his role playing game, Mappa Mundi. The music track I made will play in the background few times this episode to signal the coming and discussion of a supernatural being we are referring to the Ice Giant. There is a lot more about the giant and the world created for it in the game - see https://13thhr.wordpress.com/2025/10/13/the-thirteenth-hour-podcast-531-mappa-mundi-playthrough-into-the-rift-part-1/ I'm currently working on an animation for this guy ...

In today's episode, I'm pretty much wrapping up the track I started last week for an episode that my brother and I recorded a few weeks ago based on a setting in his role playing game, Mappa Mundi. I'm using the same DAW (digital audio workspace) I started learning how to use last month, the free web-based program Bandlab. Part of the reason for the past month and a half of making tracks this way was to warm up to the idea of making music entirely digitally (since that is what most people in the niche I probably most closely align with musically - synthwave - use). I must confess as a nonjoiner, I tend to ignore, be oblivious to, and occasionally even take perverse pleasure in being the contrarian. So I was using a more analog approach until now, mostly because it just worked. But now I can see the benefits. Yes, there are downsides (it's basically all done in front of a computer), but I think it's a worthwhile investment to learn this program and then progress to some of the more commonly used DAWs that most music producers use. They are just tools, after all, and at the end of the day, any tool is just that. What I still don't know if using a DAW actually saved me any time. I actually don't think so. That might because of the ongoing learning curve. But it might also be due to the capability of fiddling more with things on a more microscopic level, whereas the analog world involved more guesswork and the necessity of being okay with imperfection, even with the finished product (as anyone who has heard the pops and hisses of records and cassettes can attest to). With things going digital, I can see the capacity to fiddle endlessly and never fully finish anything. So we will have to see. This episode also made a little mention of Jane Goodall, one of my heroes, who passed away recently. I brought it up since the premise of the track is that you're a naturalist/explorer observing a supernatural phenomenon in the world of the game (cue pixelated depiction below), but though she gave a lot to the world due to her work and her passing marks the end of an era in some ways, I actually don't she'd want people to be sad and pessimistic at her passing. She championed for people to have hope (since 2022 she did a podcast she called her Hopecast, after all). She championed for local change. She championed for us to remember that one does not need to go to the ends of the Earth to find adventure or do good - good starts right in front of you with your own life, your own family, your own community - a great thing, I think, to keep in mind in uncertain times.

In today's episode, I'm working on a new track for an episode that my brother and I recorded a few weeks ago based on a setting in his role playing game, Mappa Mundi. I'm using the same DAW I started learning how to use last month, the free web-based program Bandlab, which I have found is great for quickly storing ideas for later. When I was working on "The Hunt" last month, I had the idea for an arpeggiated pattern than might fit once scene where your character reacts with a mix of awe and respect at an ice giant (see the pixelart depiction below) that lumbers by on the snowy tundra, leading a train of transfixed animals. But I didn't have a chance to work on it fully until now. So this week, I'd able to get into the weeds with it. Speaking of which, here is the completed version of "The Hunt" that I submitted to the contest.

In today's episode, I'm building on what I have been discussing the past three weeks as I continue to make a dark synth track to accompany one of the many hunting scenes in The Thirteenth Hour prequel, A Shadow in the Moonlight, about a cursed hunter who has to spend eternity hunting an enchanted deer. I've wanted to learn to use a desktop based DAW to make and edit music so am using this track as a way to do that. I've settled on the free web-based program Bandlab which also have a companion mobile app. While it doesn't do everything, it does far more than I expected it to do. I have tried to resist the temptation to fall back on my analog ways and cheat the purpose of this exercise :) At this point, the track is 90% done. Just some fine tuning left to do with the final mix. Thanks for listening! ∞∞∞∞∞∞∞ Once Upon a Dream, the second Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, is now out in digital form and on CD!

So, I'm trying to not throw my hands up in frustration and go back to what I know since the whole point was to learn how to use a DAW in order to make this track. This is the main melody behind the track. One of the soundtracks that served as an influence was William Goldstein's score for the Chuck Norris film Forced Vengeance. There is an Eastern flair to it (the film takes place in Hong Kong) that is perfect for one of these schlocky 80s martial arts films along with an ominous tone and plenty of tastefully done 80s synth. You can actually listen to the entire thing on William Goldstein's YT channel.

In today's episode, I'm working on the very beginnings of a dark synth track to accompany one of the many hunting scenes in The Thirteenth Hour prequel, A Shadow in the Moonlight, about a cursed hunter who has to spend eternity hunting an enchanted deer. While I've had ideas for the soundtrack to this story for years and even filmed a number of segments for some future video every time I'd see a good full moon, I have never gotten around to putting anything down until now, mostly since I could not think of an appropriate theme to knit it all together - until now. (This is probably an outdated idea in the era of library music often used for TV and movies, but I still subscribe to the idea that a soundtrack is best if there is a central hummable melody that has elements that show up from time to time in the other parts of the soundtrack.) Speaking of which, my inspiration for this track comes from one of my favorite soundtracks, Trevor Jones' Last of the Mohicans. The opening scene where Hawkeye, the Daniel Day Lewis character, is chasing a deer through the forest. While it's a simple scene in essence, the interplay between the film and the sweeping score is pure movie magic and, in my opinion, an excellent example of how music totally makes the scene.

Today's episode is about the unit Logan from the Thirteenth Hour is a part of, the Imperial Rangers, who coincidentally, mostly meet their end in the novel. They are replaced, however, at the end of the novel by King Darian IV's all female guard, as they are comparably trained. Readers of The Thirteenth Hour actually get to meet two named Esmerelda and Skye (shown in the picture below from The Thirteenth Hour). Other Rangers - Stella, Camilla, Lilia, Jenny, Maggie, and Kathyrn appear in the sequel and have their own personalities and preferences that I'm currently shaping. I'd love one day to do a stand alone adventure with the new Rangers. I've been thinking of doing another reading and picked a few possible novels to choose from.

Today's episode is a follow up on last week's episode on the geography of Logan and Aurora's island; today I wanted to share some of the resources I used that helped both inspire and inform how I wrote about the house they constructed for themselves. While I had a number of ideas of how they might make their house (i.e. partially underground) from fiction (books like My Side of the Mountain, The Sign of the Beaver, The Hobbit, and On Walden Pond had provided inspiration), the first time I stumbled upon someone actually doing something like this was Dan Price, who wrote a little book appropriately called My Tiny House. I think he'd written an article in a magazine I used to sometimes write for called The Backwoodsman describing how he created an 80 sq ft circular home underground. Fascinated, I bought the hand drawn book, read it, and filed it away as evidence that a human actually could probably make something like I'd envisioned in my mind. If you go to this page, you can find a link to a ~30 min documentary made about Dan Price and his tiny house. As you can see in the film, he actually made numerous structures that all blend in his surroundings allowing him a bit more space and from the looks of it, a pretty good quality of life. I next stumbled on a Sami structure called a goahti, which is kind of like a teepee found in parts of Scandanavia. It has a wooden skeleton that is then covered with fabric or earth/grass. I thought they were perfect examples of a real life Logan and Aurora house since I'd imagined at least part of their home (the roof especially) being covered in grass/plants so it blended in with their forested surroundings. Probably around 12-13 years ago, I found a book on tiny houses in a bookstore called Tiny Homes: Simple Shelter. I'd never heard of this architectural movement before but was delighted to find that it had a lot of the ideas that I described above. Here are a few examples of structures that looked like the sorts of things two people could reasonably do with hand tools and a lot of persistence (and good weather): https://13thhr.wordpress.com/2025/08/18/the-thirteenth-hour-podcast-523-thirteenth-hour-sequel-writing-update-2-research-on-logan-and-auroras-house/ In the same book, there are some pictures of tree houses that are similar to the structures I imagined the half elves described last week might live in. This next book, called Tree Houses, has more pictures of similar structures. All in all, these resources have been very helpful in figuring out how I wanted to write about little day to day aspects of Logan and Aurora's living situation. Though not the central portion of the story, it is a beloved place that they made with their own hands and thus occupies a special place in their hearts. There would be no story if that were not threatened, so of course they have to leave this place that they have come to feel safe and comfortable in. If it had been just any old home, the stakes would not be so high. But because it it special to them, it's all the more difficult. But that is part of the tale!

Today's episode is on geography of the island that Logan and Aurora from The Thirteenth Hour make their eventual home on. While they initially think it's uninhabited, it turns out to be the home of half elves who take refuge there. Logan and Aurora eventually become ingrained in their community, learning their way of life, and because they are more mobile, take to trading and selling things on the mainland, things they and the half elves can't so easily make. I made a top down map of the island which you can see below: ⁠https://13thhr.wordpress.com/2025/08/11/the-thirteenth-hour-podcast-522-thirteenth-hour-sequel-writing-update-geography-of-logan-and-auroras-island/⁠Thanks for listening! ∞∞∞∞∞∞∞ Once Upon a Dream, the second Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, is now out in digital form and on CD!

In today's episode, I wanted to make a rendition of the James Horner Rocketeer theme in time for what would have been Dave Steven's 70th birthday (7/29). At this the time of this podcast release, that is a few days in the past, so we are going back in time a bit. I can't imagine trying to improve upon the score as it is, so I decided I'd alter it a bit to fit the mood or state of mind I envisioned when I pictured this whole project - Cliff soaring towards the horizon on a cloudless, moonlight night, totally at peace with his surroundings (as odd as that might seem to an outsider). I imagined that if one could erase the G-forces, the woosh of the wind, and the chill of the night air, things might feel almost slow, balletic, a real Peter Pan moment. So that's why I made this version more meditative in nature and called it "...the closest I'll ever get to heaven, Mr. Hughes." The fully mixed track plays in full at the end of the episode. Besides the youtube video above, I have also put it up for streaming / download on my bandcamp page. This track is meant to be free and is done as a homage to a great comic book artist and a great composer, both of which are sadly no longer with us. Any donations made there will be given in full to the Hairy Cell Leukemia Foundation (HCL is the type of cancer Dave Stevens died from and the HCL Foundation is where Dave Stevens' family sends their donations.)

In today's episode, I'm playing a song from the early 90s adventure game, King's Quest 6 - the instrumental version of "Girl in the Tower," which played at the end of the game if you had the CD-ROM version of the game, a feat that was pretty cool at the time. Although the song, composed by Mark Siebert, fit in perfectly with the top 40 adult contemporary hits of the early 90s and the themes of later JRPGs like those found in the Final Fantasy games, for me, it always stood out since it had all the parts I loved in 80s ballads - a catchy, hummable melody, an electric guitar instrumental break, and a piano instrumental. I've always loved the contrast between all those parts. Plus, it was the only CD we had for quite awhile. I'd be lying if I didn't admit that a fair amount of the sound that makes its way into The Thirteenth Hour soundtracks comes from songs like this. Girl in the Tower (CD version) Girl in the tower instrumental Cassima's Theme And that's why I wanted to dedicate today's episode and the rendition on piano that I attempted to Roberta Vaughn, who passed away recently, suddenly and way too young. She was instrumental in forming the Classic Gamer's Guild in Facebook, a welcoming, positive group dedicated to celebrating classic games, especially adventure games of the 80s and 90s. Truth be told, when I was playing with the idea of trying to figure this song out, I initially wasn't sure if I should. What if she hated the game? I wasn't sure and thought about asking folks who knew her better. But I figured, given the kind of person I understood her to be, even if she wasn't the biggest fan of the game or the song, she'd appreciate the inherent 90s cheese of the lyrics and the nostalgia of it all and get a kick out of it. At least I hope so. May there be the hint books be infinite and the copy protection miniscule wherever you are, Roberta. Thank you for all you did. This one is for you.

Today's episode is an update on the work I've been doing on writing the sequel to The Thirteenth Hour. In reality, I have been working on the sequel's story for decades in small ways and started actually writing it a number of years ago but then took a hiatus to work on other things. In the past 3 weeks, I've made a point to get back to it, so far writing about 8K words in little bursts, often in between other things. Not a ton but, it's been fun to revisit this world again! There are a few DnD adventures my brother and I did added to the backstory: -The Wayfarer's Escape - episodes 125, 126, and 127 -The Wayfarer's Dungeon Crawl - episodes 418 and 419 My brother put together a Youtube playlist with the other DnD adventures we recorded that also have some backstory that I have wanted to reference in things I have written since the publishing of The Thirteenth Hour. Empty Hands had some, and the sequel will have more. Thanks for listening! ∞∞∞∞∞∞∞ Once Upon a Dream, the second Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, is now out in digital form and on CD!

This week, I'm reading Chapter 23, the final chapter of the Peter David penned movie novelization of the 1991 Rocketeer film. Ironically, this episode will come out right after the United States' birthday (7/4/1776), at a time when there is a lot of turmoil in the country. It's not the first time, nor will it be the last, I suspect. I won't get into the wasteland of politics, but since this episode is on the Rocketeer, I thought it would be an interesting time to reflect on how the character fits some American ideals. Speaking of which - ideals ... the country was founded on the idea that all men are created equal and all deserve some basic rights. Was this true in 1776? Let's be frank (it's an American ideal). No. Not even close. It might have been true if you were a free white man but was probably not anywhere close to being true if you were a woman, child, slave, indentured servant, or a race other Caucasian. It took a long time for other groups to finally catch up. US women finally achieved the right to vote in national elections in 1920 (19th amendment to the US Constitution). Though slavery was officially abolished after the US Civil War in 1865, black men were were not granted the right to vote in federal elections until 1870 (the 15th amendment to the US Constitution), and it was not until the 1950s and 60s and beyond that segregation practices were ended (Jim Crow laws ended on a national level in 1964, but in many cases, still exist in other, less overt forms depending on the location). It was not until 1967 that interracial marriage was allowed on a federal level (see the 1967 US Supreme Court case of Loving v. Virginia). Although the United States was founded by immigrants, the Chinese exclusion act, passed in 1882, was the first significant law that restricted the flow of immigrants into the US, targeting Chinese laborers. While there were amendments to the law in 1943, there were still quotas and other restrictions to abide by. It was not until 2012 (!) that the Chinese exclusion act was official condemned by Congress. Although Native Americans were the first people on this land, they were not granted access to US citizenship until 1924 (Indian Citizenship Act), and it was not until 1965 that they were granted the federal right to vote (Voting Rights Act of 1965), though US Native Americans still are often unable to vote for various reasons to this day. Same sex marriage was not legally allowed on federal level until 2015 (see the US Supreme Court decision of Obergefell v. Hodges). These are just a few examples of inequality in the face of a federal Constitution claiming basic rights for all. I write all this not to condemn all the ways in which we as a country fail to live up to our ideals but rather to show that as any society, especially one made up by immigrants from all over the world, is going to have its problems and will require a lot of work and constant maintenance to work in any somewhat functional way. The US is basically a nearly 250 year old hotel with guests constantly coming and going, clogging the sinks and toilets, running down the hot water, making messes, and yelling in the hallway. Even in low season times, there is still plenty of maintenance to do since things break. Nothing lasts forever. How does all this relate to the Rocketeer?

This week, on the show, my brother and I are watching Manhunter, from 1986, a prequel of sorts to The Silence of the Lambs films. Not having seen any of those films or read any of the books they were based on before, I went in with no expectations, but I will say, this is quite an entertaining, very stylish 80s movie.

This week, I'm reading Chapter 22 of the Peter David penned movie novelization of the 1991 Rocketeer film. This part of the film picks up on top of the zeppelin, with a daring autogyro rescue by Peevy and Howard Hughes. A few other things: 1.) Once Upon a Dream is out! Listen on most major streaming platforms, though if you have no preference, I suggest Bandcamp, which has a bonus track. This is the music project I've been working on the past seven years or so, trying to translate the world of The Thirteenth Hour into this second soundtrack to accompany the novel. Since I made the album over the course of years, I wasn't sure how it would turn out as a whole initially, but in the many hours I spent mixing it, I found it actually does live up to its title. Ethereal, dreamlike, and meditative were words that early listeners used in describing the tracks, and though this wasn't quite my initial intention, I hope listening to this album provides a measure of peace for you. 2.) Modern Dads of Martial Arts, published by Whistlekick, is now out as well. This is a collection of thirteen essays written by martial artist dads. I have an essay in it. I loved reading the whole thing (read it in pre-production). I honestly think aspects of martial arts can help make us better versions of ourselves, and in the case of us guys, better husbands, fathers, and human beings. 3.) Much of this week has been occupied by wrapping up these Spacecamp figures, being made for a fundraiser for the US Space and Rocket Foundation to make it easier for kids to afford camp tuition.
