🚨Breaking Cantina News🚨 After many years and a lot of digging—and help from @infinata.bsky.social—Tom Spina was able to figure out who portrayed all seven members of the Modal Nodes! #StarWars

Hey folks. I'm still here—I'm just running a (non-Star Wars) dance camp in the woods of Plymouth in July, and all my free time has gone into prep for that. I'll be back with more galactic sounds before you know it!

As I hoped, there's at least one diegetic track on the soundtrack: "Hugo Durant's Snack Shack" offers some slick jazz guitar that brings the other Jango (the one with the D) into Star Wars. There may be some other source cues but I'll need to see it again. youtu.be/gS8KRiT-ddI?...

The soundtrack for "The Mandalorian and Grogu" drops tomorrow, and there are a couple of enticing track names for us diegetic music fans, but I'm waiting until I see the movie next week to give it a listen. I'll let you know if they do indeed turn out to be in-universe music.

I've broken down the first hour with my best guesses. There are three (!) previously unknown Docking Bay 7 tracks and one BSO radio track in that hour, plus a few snippets. Galaxy's Edge Soundscape 0:00—Entrance Theme 2:55—Symphonic Suite 7:35—BSO radio U9 9:31—Savi's Workshop?

Exciting news: Disney has released a three-hour Galaxy's Edge Soundscape on YouTube, which (I think—I haven't listened closely yet) includes some unreleased Hodges/Kerber music from the Docking Bay 7 patio and some unreleased BSO radio music! youtu.be/lyvbLEqa1mQ?...

As I hoped, that great scource cue from the speeder chase in episode 8 of Maul: Shadow Lord was released on the soundtrack. It's track 22, "Being Inconspicuous". As far as I can tell that's the only diegetic music that made the cut. youtu.be/OJiRLGmJ_ss?...

The Diegetic Shuffle

At last it is here—day 365 of #TheDiegeticShuffle, the daily dose of diegetic Star Wars music I hit play on on May the Fourth last year. Our final piece comes from Knights of the Old Republic—a subtly unsettling electronic loop from Jeremy Soule called "Jayvar's Cantina".

"Now let's ease back on the thrusters," says R3X, "and take it nice and slow with one of my favorites: 'Alooooo...gahoooo'." Vocalist Vee Gooda got her start on Cloud City and teamed up with Ryco for "Aloogahoo", which plays in Oga's and on BSO radio. youtu.be/1Jp4-TIlrh4?...

We are playing our very last Clone Wars source cue on day 363 of #TheDiegeticShuffle. "Festival of Light" from the episode "Crisis on Naboo", credited to Kevin Kiner, is a stirring, celebratory piece from Naboo that perhaps is the closest Star Wars has come to Disney parks music.

I take issue with the line “While Star Wars: A New Hope features the iconic band in the Mos Eiseley Cantina, diegetic music has remained unusual in Star Wars productions,” but apart from that this is a great article that points me to some diegetic music I was unaware of! medium.com/@SkywalkerSo...

"Wings of Time" is our last track from @codymatthewjohnson.bsky.social's "Songs from the Underworld", the excellent diegetic soundtrack album from Star Wars: Outlaws. To my ears it's Chinese temple music that an 80s pop song snuck into when the monks weren't looking. youtu.be/S-q2LwoBvnA?...

Here's @moceanworker.bsky.social talking about being asked to remix "Mad About Me" at D23 2019 (part 1/2, curse you Bluesky's three-minute limit):

The OG "Cantina Band" was titled "Mad About Me", and DJ R-3X was such a fan he called his remix "Mad About Mad About Me", a "pulsating galactic-techno remix of a cantina classic" (per Star Wars dot com). We're mad about it on day 361 of #TheDiegeticShuffle. youtu.be/AydLFrcYNR8?...

Pull up a stool on the patio of Docking Bay 7 one more time to listen to "Marketplace" by Harlan Hodges and Randy Kerber. It's frenetic, layered, and alien, with junk and improvised instruments (like the unidentified wind instrument that comes in at 1:07). youtu.be/4p46mI7PosI?...

I have a confession about day 359 of #TheDiegeticShuffle: I don't know where this cue is from, or even if it's a source cue! "Racing Mix" from season 2 of the Bad Batch consists of two tracks by @kinermusic.bsky.social: 45 seconds of "Market Source", then…what? youtu.be/yJu3kNJWNiQ?...

That speeder had a pretty choice sound system in episode 8 of Maul: Shadow Lord, huh? Pretty sure THAT scource cue will be on the soundtrack, at least.

On day 358 of #TheDiegeticShuffle we're falling—"Falling for an Outlander". This song by Snoopio's Ghost is anchored by an insistent bassline, with horns, cuíca, hammered strings, sitar, and bongos (among other things) swirling in and around it. youtu.be/OsS_Wojetlk?...

Sean Kiner brings us some baroque sort-of harpsichord music on day 357 of #TheDiegeticShuffle. In season 7 of the Clone Wars, Ahsoka and the Martez sisters are in the court of King Yaruba on Kessel, where "Banquet Source" conceals criminal activities beneath luxury and elegance.

Star Waver is back on day 356 of #TheDiegeticShuffle, playing some good old-fashioned guitar rock for Jabba in the Visions episode "Tatooine Rhapsody". The track is also titled "Tatooine Rhapsody", and is really two numbers—Jay asks "You ready for one more?" midway through.

Day 355 of #TheDiegeticShuffle is brief but sweet: in the fourth episode of the Bad Batch an Aqualish dump truck (dump speeder?) driver is listening to "Cockpit Source" by Deana Kiner, a few seconds of electronic beats and sampled voices. I wish we could hear more.

You can learn about day 354 of #TheDiegeticShuffle, but not from a Jedi. "Squid Lake" was a Mon Calamari aquatic opera composed by John Williams, with extremely deep bass vocals (à la Tuvan throat singing), synths, and what sounds to me like a glass harmonica.

On day 353 of #TheDiegeticShuffle we're sitting in a café on Coruscant listening to some Star Wars darkwave from Deana Kiner. "Cafe Coruscant" appeared in the seventh season of the Clone Wars, and has very moody vocals in an unknown language.

(Bluesky is not letting me upload video at the moment, so today's Diegetic Shuffle is delayed.)

On day 352 of #TheDiegeticShuffle they're playing ominous trance music in 79's, a clone bar on Coruscant. This unreleased Deana Kiner composition, "Club Mix", is from the season 6 Clone Wars episode "Orders".

Just added two new source cues to the spreadsheet from episode 6 of Maul: Shadow Lord: "casino source" and "Rheena Sul apartment source 2" (my titles, not official).

Phobium was a metal alloy used in power cells. "Cut the phobium" was an expression meaning "cut the crap". And "Cut the Phobium" was a slinkily comic jizz piece by @stevekirkpop.bsky.social for the Old Republic. It's our selection for day 351 of #TheDiegeticShuffle. youtu.be/aQoEQm0mn7c?...
