It sounds so different without the sub bass. I always wonder what was used for the bass in the album version. It almost sounds like an acoustic bass pitched down an octave and heavily compressed and limited.
@@sodiumlights Fair enough. It's not that the posthumous mix sucks. I just prefer the vocal mix on this rough. The one on Basement has the vocals too buried in the mix. I am not sure if the final mix was too squashed at the mixing or mastering stage, but the final mix isn't as dynamic. This rough was likely a reference mix to check for how the vocals sat. Elliott might have done something completely different. Unfortunately we'll never know.
This is so superior to the Basement mix it makes me disappointed in what could have been. It has White Album overtones of unrefined creativity with grunge instrumentals. The Basement mix sounds thin and dissatisfying by comparison.
Fuck, this mix is way better imo
Indeed
ngl the dirty drums are startling at first but they’re so fucking sick i wish they’d kept them

Elliott sure was creative
Really cool that you can interpret such an abstract sound like that, I'd have no idea how to analyse it. Can I ask how you came to that conclusion?
Would be perfect if it wasn't missing the piano parts at 3:00 and 4:43
too wide/phased, but I'm biased, fav Elliot song. deranged sonics. free,
Ah man there's an alt acoustic Coast to Coast on CZcams with different verses that is amazing!
For a rough mix, it's really awesome. Imagine what would have been if he had been able to finalize a mix. Sounds better than what was released.
@@wrayven can't help loving that scuzzy, fckedup Basement...mix though. MaryChain bliss.

@@wrayven ace thoughts!
It's just a better mix
