Installing pyaudio on AMD64 from .exe

Question

I want to install pyaudio on my Windows 8 x64 machine. I have Python 2.7 x64 installed. Building from source is not an option for me, and anyway I have seen that it failed for others. The Python 2.7 x64 .exe from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ is not working. Is there another way to install? Are there any other places to download from? Thanks!
