Question about the treasure I seek
Hey it's this guy again.
So I've been sitting in the corners of this website peaking in at what all of you beautiful people have to say. Anyways I've logged back in because I made a discovery of something I somehow have always overlooked. This: A new mix of a MCIS song with D'arcy's vocals that she apparently recorded for lots of songs on the album? How did I not hear that one of these was released in the reissue. Does anyone know if there are more? |

That's really interesting... I definitely remembered those vocal harmonies from the original, but I don't remember ever thinking hey I wonder who is singing that part. Very distinctly darcy when it's bumped up high in the mix, and you can really hear the personality of her voice more than anywhere else on the track around 2:20 "under her coat" I think that harmony was completely mixed out of the original. Maybe because it stood out too much

This reminds me of an old debate I used to have with my various bandmates and producers over years of making records that few people outside of north carolina heard. What is wrong with being able to hear everything at once? The argument was that it makes the song too cluttered, too much going on at once, the ear doesn't know what to focus on. But I love it. I usually liked our premixes better than the finished product, which sounded more muted, less alive, to me.
I really like that weird fast keyboard part at the end that sounds like a cheap digital harpsichord sound with like a chorus and reverb effect! It's weird that it fades out since that part makes it sound like it is racing towards a clear conclusion, that it does hit before the fade is done. But then again, I've never been a fan of the fade. |

Also why early stereo albums would just put bass and drums in one channel and guitars in the other and stereo pan the vocals and call it a day. |

Yo Demon there is an 8 second fade at the end listen to it again. But it allows the final note to hit, which is odd to me. Why do a quick fade but allow the listener to hear the ending to the song? I like everything else about this mix, just found that odd.

You can hear the ending, so there is no fade out. Some instruments in the song fade, but you can clearly hear a distinct ending arrangement.

Progressive rock bands like to mix everything so that everything in the mix is within 1db of each other. This is one of the things that makes many progressive rock albums sound clinical, cold, and often will give you kind of an overwhelming claustrophobic kinda feeling when listen to them.

So I was wrong, I guess I do remember these vocals from the original.
This is what had me suprised. This mix has D'arcy's vocals there and I think that vocal line is just superb. |
