Sun, 11 Jan 2009 00:07:43 +0000 http://www.hometracked.com/2007/11/13/the-rule-of-mixing/#comment-72478 I think you meant to say "Make only those changes which OTHER PEOPLE THINK improve the song.". music is art and art is about expression ... whether you choose to "overdo" effects or have "flat, lifeless" mix... that is up to you. Maybe you let your friends choose what you wear but I like knowing I'm not another lifeless robot that just follows those around him/her. :/ I think you meant to say “Make only those changes which OTHER PEOPLE THINK improve the song.”.

No, seriously, that's an interesting fact I did not know. I just assumed all those K-Tel compilations from back in the day were the same tracks as the singles. It makes sense, but there must be some songs on there that were the same masters as the single/album versions of those songs, right? I mean, weren't there ABBA songs on some of those? As much as I love the thought of ABBA recreating their singles again in the studio I can't really see it happening. I'm going to look at K-Tel comps in a whole new light. But I bet it was cool listening to those. Dan wins.
