    JUNCTION POINT: NOT JUST ANOTHER PBeM RPG!
    Junction Point is a freefloating space station that is located in that dark area between Gorn, Tholian, and Klingon space, within a whiff of the Romulan Empire. K7, as we call it, is adjacent to Sherman's Planet, where, just 76 years before, the tribble incident took place. We're set in the year 2380, after the Borg encounters and the Dominion War, at the very end of the ST-TV timelines. This is a very fastpaced game composed of a solid base of experienced and expert players, some of them professionally published in the SF-Fantasy genre. Our location is junction.the-fgn.org and we're always ready to welcome a few new players into our warm and friendly community. If our roster appears full at the positions that interest you, don't let that discourage you from joining. There's enough posting for duplications in Senior Officer positions and the imagination's the limit on civilian and other personnel. We're expecting to be around for a long time, so if you come, plan to stay! We can be reached by clicking Contact Administration or Joining the Game on our site.

    As reported several weeks ago, GNP Crescendo will be releasing the ENTERPRISE soundtrack album, which includes the Russell Watson rendition of the opening theme "Faith of the Heart" (now called "Where My Heart Will Take Me") this Tuesday, May 14th.

    The CD will also include orchestral selections from composer Dennis McCarthy's music for the series.

    You can buy the CD from Amazon and support TrekWeb at the same time!

    FilmTracks has posted four RealAudio samples from the ENTERPRISE soundtrack CD. The site has also reviewed the album in its entirety, giving it only two stars for what it calls an "unsuccessful contradiction." Here is an excerpt:

      "As it stands, the music for Enterprise is one giant contradiction that has failed in what the producers set out to accomplish. The album is an equally curious item. It includes, like those that came out for the many series before it, the score for the pilot episode and a few versions of the title piece. With Watson's involvement, the label switches from the familiar, though sputtering GNP Crescendo to the more mainstream and thriving Decca/Universal. Despite a whole year of episodes long finished, the packaging of the album is still restrained to the extremely uninteresting early promo shots of the principle actors standing around in those blue jumpsuits. Sound quality is also a major concern. The remix of the title song for the first track features spectacular surround sound, but all of the score and the TV-version of the song at the end suffer from a muted quality that is detrimental to the listening experience. The ninth track, "Grappled," is expecially muffled. This has been a problem with these episodic albums in the past, but one would think that 2002 mixing techniques and the resources at Universal could make McCarthy's undersized orchestra sound considerably better than it does on this album. As it stands, the song is out of place, the score is contradictory, and the sound quality is questionable. What were they thinking? Some closing advice on the title theme: Budget the money, assemble a decent ensemble, get a top notch recording studio whiz or two, and hire Jerry Goldsmith (before his health completely fails) to do it right."
