12/14/2005 - John and Jared met with Director R.P.Whalen to preview the rough audio mix of "Mondo Collecto".  It seemed like they were going in the right direction and with only a few touch-ups and some mixing ahead,  the score will be ready for the film...

...and the film will be ready for THE WORLD!!!

12/01/2005 - Turnidoff Productions was informed by John Mapes and Jared Ringold that all the preliminary track recording for the "Mondo Collecto" soundtrack has been completed. It has been their most ambitious project to date, and also their first since the disintegration of "The Nick Atoms" in October.

Director R.P. Whalen was quoted as saying that he, "Trusts whatever we come up with for his film." so composer John Mapes decided to pull out everything he could think of while watching "Mondo Collecto" and throw out everything he knew about songwriting at that point... and what he came up with was like nothing he had ever done before.

Producer/Engineer and Percussionist Jared Ringold recalls the recording session: "I didn't know what the hell he wanted from me. He rarely make any musical sense... but when he did, THAT'S what we used for the soundtrack... and it works."

The Band "The G. Wildens" perform the main theme song to "Mondo Collecto" and are accompanied by female vocalist Sarah Craven. John used the theme of the wild Go-Go 60's and lounge style to be an overall sound which he thinks, "Should fit this film perfectly".

A Soundtrack that is just as unique and varied as the film is itself.
"Mondo Collecto" sould be a visual and aural feast for everyone!
