Embracing Sonic Nostalgia with "Ghostbusters: Afterlife"

NOVEMBER 23, 2021

We're turning back the clock to 1984 as we talk about Ghostbusters: Afterlife with Supervising Sound Editor and Re-Recording Mixer Will Files, and Composer Rob Simonsen. Unlike many modern action-adventure films, this team, led by director Jason Reitman, tried to make everything sound as authentically '80s as possible in order to give the audience an experience reminiscent of the beloved original film. The result is a delightful throwback to the action-comedies of yesteryear.
