Well, here it is. A long time in the making.
When I first saw the trailers for the Desolation of Smaug in 2013, and heard snippets of the Smaug voice, I knew I wanted to be able to "do that". More than almost anything else. It was the fire which started this project and encouraged my wider voice work, and so to finally release this chapter is quite a momentous occasion for me - in a sense it's 4 years in the making!
I've done my best with it, trying to make every second epic or solemn or whatever it needs, applying as much of my experience as I could to make this the best chapter yet, and hopefully one that, as a whole, will stand the test of time.
One of the most challenging aspects was arranging the music early on in the production. For some chapters, like Ch3, Ch7 (and Ch13 actually), large swathes of the music seem to write themselves into the arrangement. But for this chapter, because there was either so much to choose from or nothing I thought was suitable, there was WORK to make the music work throughout! As well as none of it repeating or making an appearance in the last two, or in the next two chapters. But for the final product, I don't think either way necessarily works out better... though this was is definitely harder than usual! Again, particularly because it's been so long in the making, I didn't want to compromise at the very end.

Feel free to ask anything about the chapter and any others! Any feedback, questions, you name it. There is much more to say about this one, and I'll be making posts on my fb page in the coming days. Have a look if you're interested in some background on how this all happens. I love hearing from you, so do drop a message :)

Bluefax is an actor, vocalist and producer, inspired by Peter Jackson's LOTR trilogy and many dramatic and musical influences through childhood. This theatrical audiobook is the result of thousands of hours of work, and was created with the intention to be as well-received in a hundred years as it can be today.

This project was started in the summer of 2014, sparked by the combined inspiration of Phil Dragash's LOTR soundscape audiobooks, Benedict Cumberbatch's performance of Smaug, and a desire to do these stories justice. In 2019, the then-completed series was reshaped, remixed and remastered, with four chapters rerecorded to bring a higher and more consistent standard.

I've given everything to make this project - constructing something which feels like my childhood imagination blended with the musical heart of the film trilogies. I hope it brings you some of that same joy. If it does, do leave a comment and keep me posted - I'd love to hear your story.

Take care,
Bluefax
