Jukebox

[laughs]

Anyways, I would like to take a quick break because Trevor, it's been a bit, and we need to hear the latest tunes on the Jukebox.

Take it away, Trevor.

[upbeat music] Good enough.

Jukebox.

All right.

For anyone new here, this is the Jukebox where we talk about video game music.

So soundtracks from movies, video games, kind of odd spots.

That from Steve.

Yeah, first of all, Steve, I'd love to know what club you played for because my great mate, Jukebox, ex-YT, he played rugby.

with a bunch of guys from Wellington, Tu Wiley, Dave Henderson, guys like that.

They played at the Ombak Club, Old Mission Beach Athletic Club in San Diego.

Had an absolutely great time there.

I suppose the big difference is that they do have a professional league there, which they didn't have back in those days when guys like you went over there, and I suppose they looked after you with some accommodation and maybe found you.

I know Jukebox ended up working at the Navy dockyards.

while he was there.

He raided your jukebox.

I was like, what songs do you not like, Edward? That was me.

Jukebox is

always better when Jesse is crying.

Ed's worst

So that became Anglo-Saxonized over the years, the jug, to a jug box.

Jukebox.

Jukebox is a dance box, and it represents music that was brought in by mostly Blacks and Black slaves, and it gravitated towards that type of crazed music.

Uh, white folks didn't like it, and they frowned on it, but they loved Black music.

They just wouldn't admit it.

And the jukebox formed teenage social life and determined the most popular teen hangout spots around.

Let's return to Ed with the rest of this story.

Jukeboxes really became popular when Prohibition was repealed in 1933, which allowed social gathering, drinking.

Welcome to Composers in the Jukebox, a podcast that brings together a special breed of musicians in the conversations about their craft.

Today we are joined by Patrick Celina, a prominent video game composer whose recent score includes Mouse P.I. for Hire, a noir-inspired action game which he discusses with us today.

Hello, everybody.

Schussler would eventually make his way into advertising, while taking up the hobby of restoring items for the 1950s.

Before you know it, Steven's selling jukeboxes, carousel horses, and slot machines atop a nightclub in Miami, leading to the conception of a 1950s-themed restaurant called Jukebox Saturday Night.

This restaurant would expand to seven locations across the United States prior to going bankrupt in 1991, which was the same year a little place by the name of Planet Hollywood opened in New York City.

By this time, themed dining experiences or eatertainments were taking off thanks to trailblazers such as Hard Rock Cafe in 1971 and Dave & Buster's in 1982.

All that to say, Schussler wasn't gonna let Jukebox be the last of his eatertainment endeavors.

Fueled by his longtime passion for exotic birds and animals at large, Steven asked himself, "What if I could create a rainforest-themed restaurant where I could share all of these amazing creatures with the public while they were eating?" It is important to note that back in the 1960s, another man carried a similar desire that would ultimately lead to the creation of his enchanted tiki room in Disneyland.

You see, originally, Walt Disney envisioned it to be a dining experience with live birds.

So as your character, what did Uncle Marv,

he didn't want to kill Kanan? You know what? Well, honestly, technically, Jukebox stopped him.

And when he went to the Kanan house, it was done then.

Jukebox stopped that.

But I still, I think that Marvin, the way Marvin was, I think he would have probably felt felt some type of way about it after the

fact.

I'm out of there.

Him and them two, you wouldn't, you know.

He said, what you got? Then he went and looked on us and typed it in for him.

He like, we're going to be at Jukebox today.

That shit was

crazy.
