The Collaborative Process Behind the 'Watch from Mercury' Soundtrack

By admin

The "Watchmen" soundtrack, composed by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, is a brilliant and atmospheric accompaniment to the film adaptation of the popular graphic novel. Released in 2009, the film is known for its dark and gritty portrayal of a group of flawed and morally ambiguous vigilantes. The soundtrack perfectly reflects the tone and mood of the film. Reznor and Ross, known for their work on other successful film scores such as "The Social Network" and "Gone Girl," bring their signature blend of electronic and ambient music to create a haunting and immersive listening experience. One standout track from the soundtrack is "Mercury," a brooding instrumental piece that sets the stage for the film's dark narrative. The track begins with a mesmerizingly repetitive piano melody, accompanied by eerie electronic sounds that gradually build in intensity.



Magic Grips for Magic Mouse 1 & 2

I’ve always loved the Magic Mouse, but since a friend showed me Magic Grips, I can’t use an Apple mouse without them. They make them noticeably more comfortable.

Steven Rubinstein Good grips

Definitely an improvement over the gripless Magic Mouse. Would say their great, but I’d even like a bigger option.

A better experience.

I have a love-hate relationship with the magic mouse. These grips help increase the touchable surface area of the mouse and also soften the harder edges. Way more comfortable to use that with the mouse by itself over longer periods of time.

Doug Adds extra comfort and control

I've been using these for about 2 years now. (Went back and confirmed my order date.) I really like how they make the Magic Mouse feel a little thicker and less dainty. Kind of like those triangular rubbish pencil grips did back in school days. I actually feel like I have more precise control because of how these change your grip.

My only minor issue is that the 3M adhesive lasted about 2 years before it started to break down, become a little slimy, and lost its stick. This is why I came back here to check if they had replacement adhesives. I’ll likely just order a whole new set - they work that well, and are worth the cost for a couple more years worth of use. Now that I no longer have my original grips stuck on, I really miss the feel of them.

BTW, any remaining adhesive rubs off the mouse easily with a tissue or towel. Good as new, and ready for a new set of grips once they arrive.

Trevor Stobbe Really helps with ergonomics

Loving these magic grips. Really helps the Magic Mouse not out as much strain on my hand. Would recommend!

Magic Mouse is one of the most beautiful products Apple has ever made. It's symmetrical in two directions, minimal, and the materials are perfect.

Unfortunately, great aesthetics ≠ great ergonomics. Magic Mouse is very narrow, your fingers rest on the sharp top edge, and the sides curve inward. It's uncomfortable for a lot of people.

So as a little side project, we wanted to make it better. We made over 100 prototypes to get a design we really liked (and thanks everyone who helped test them). We found hand ergonomics are really hard because there are widely varying hand sizes, people hold mice differently, and what feels good short term isn't necessarily comfortable long term.

Introducing MagicGrips. They give your mouse a large concave surface to rest your fingers and a slightly wider grip that feels great. They install easily, are made of premium medical-grade silicone rubber, and fit perfectly. MagicGrips even look good, complimenting Apple’s industrial design.

More comfortable. The concave surface along 75% of the sides of the mouse makes it comfortable to hold, you can squeeze your mouse as hard as you please without it wedging upwards, and the wider grip relieves strain.

Two size options included. Mice are not a one size fits all solution. We added an extra wide and tall grip if you prefer it (about 1/3 of our testers do) - so you can try both and decide which you like.

Precise fit. We had Apple’s mouse 3D laser scanned for an exact fit. The sidewalls above the aluminum have a slight offset so they don’t interfere with the click travel.

Easy to mount. Our 3M adhesive makes it easy to put on your mouse and swap sizes. It is strong enough to stay on securely, but easy to peel off. We recommend you try them first without removing the adhesive film to decide which size you like .

Try them risk-free. That's right - give them a spin, we'll give you your money back if you don't think they are an improvement. So dust off that Magic Mouse that you stuck in your drawer 2 years ago, in favor of that ergonomic Logitech mouse that doesn't have Multi-touch - and make your hand happy and workflow better.

The track begins with a mesmerizingly repetitive piano melody, accompanied by eerie electronic sounds that gradually build in intensity. As the song progresses, layers of distorted guitars and pulsating beats are added to create a sense of tension and unease. The result is a track that is both beautiful and unsettling, capturing the complex emotions and themes of the film.

Reviews for "Behind the Beat: The Rhythm and Groove of the 'Watch from Mercury' Soundtrack"

- Emma - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the "Wotch from merdury sndtrack". The songs were all so similar and there was no variety in the sound. It felt like they were all just following the same formula. I was hoping for more creativity and unique sounds, but it was just a letdown.
- Mike - 1 star - I couldn't stand the "Wotch from merdury sndtrack". The songs all sounded so generic and cliché. There was nothing new or innovative about them. It felt like I had heard them all before. I was hoping for something different but was completely disappointed.
- Laura - 2 stars - The "Wotch from merdury sndtrack" just didn't do it for me. The songs were forgettable and didn't leave any lasting impression. I couldn't even hum a single tune after listening to it. It lacked the catchiness and memorable hooks that I look for in a soundtrack. Overall, it was a forgettable experience.
