The bass sounds better for sure, sadly except for the TWAT outro solo, the bass was way too low and blended into tracks on chidem. but the rest of the mixing was awesome. It might be more that there were 700 different things going on that made it messy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Previously “Oklaho” linked to the GnR page and not Hard Skool though. Wasn't the song Oklahoma renamed to Berlin later on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In which? To my ear there is far more room in the two new tracks? Chinese sounds overly busy & guitars, drums often sound computer generated.

Jw224 Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 The mixes of HS and Absurd were really bad. Sounds like early mixes that were compressed to all hell and then released. The drums sound so bad. Everything is so compressed it sounds like a jumbled mess. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvH Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 (edited) Chinese is a very busy mix, but quite well done all things considered , and mastered tastefully. Absurd and even more so Hard Skool (the spelling ) are horrendously mixed and mastered. Edited September 29, 2022 by EvH 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I love all the layers on Chinese, but also understand that they want to do it more in your face this time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackstar Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Silkworms was leading to GN'R last year between the releases of Absurd and Hard Skool (and when Hard Skool was bringing GN'R, too). That could have been because Spotify had crawled articles about Absurd that mentioned it used to be called Silkworms. Later (unknown when) Silkworms stopped bringing up GN'R and it didn't a few days ago, but now it apparently does again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main issue is that there is absolutely no conclusive end to it unless a release happens. There's never going to be a point at which everyone says 'yep, it was an algorithm'.

gavgnr Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 (edited) I’d be up for a separate thread about Spotify. Can we call it Gavgnr’s Spotify Incident @Powerage5 😂 On that topic, not sure if it means anything but (here in the UK) only the general, soul monster, perhaps and ‘cuban s’ brings up GnR without any separate reference to HardSkool or Absurd. Both atlas and SOG do also bring up reference to those two singles released last year Edited September 29, 2022 by gavgnr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
