The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
I've got to turn in. Will finish these up soon, then I'll look into "mastering" them (basically just sequencing, making the transitions work, evening out volume levels).
I agree there are parts that are clearer now but something about the hi-hat feels a little weird. It sounds like something else is being choked off to let the hi-hat take center stage. It may just be because I’ve heard the album version 50 times now and my head is cocking like a dog’s when they hear a new sound.

Trag, you beautiful bastard...
I know this was a pretty decent chunk of work, but, I hope you feel as though it was worth it...lf only to hear that isolated piano track on "Upper Hand."
How great is that?!?

Holy shit, would you believe there's actually a piano at the end of Upper Hand?! This is just the isolated surround stem from the outro, but it should give you an idea of what's buried under Ghanea's distorted compression:

wait, you've been missing the piano at the end of Upper Hand?
Can hear it, but, to hear it so completely as a part was really fantastic

Yeah. It’s always neat to discover the full texture of the backing parts on a record.
I’ve been surprised to find a lot of simple acoustic guitars holding down the core melody of a song, usually panned dead center and buried under other tracks. This is classic studio songwriter stuff but I’m not sure if PJ has ever employed this approach.

It was great to hear that piano more isolated; I've always been a sucker for rockin' piano jams. Would love for PJ to dabble with that more. Piano could also work well on some existing songs like Sleeping By Myself, Parachutes, Unthought Known, 25 Minutes To Go, Parting Ways, etc...
