...fucked up "A Punchup at a Wedding" the unmastered recording of it.. despite all unpatched-up editing problems was much better . it was more playful w/ the vocal adlibs and there was more overt textural vocal harmonizing etc.. this time it sounds like his mic was the loudest thing in the mix and it was muted in between verses ..musically, though, it's much smoother and cleaner
I love this album though.. although yorke called it "OK Computer 2" I think this is more of a midpoint between OK Computer and Amnesiac.. he also apologized publicly for it not being as adventurous as the last two. apparently the next albums (and subsequent releases) are by far the strangest they've done.. either they're already recorded or that's what they'll be going for..
there there has officially grew on me about a week and a half ago.. I'm still trying to figure out why the initial mixdown of this brought thom to tears.. uncontrollable tears at that.. personally I couldnt find anything on this album that would bring even the fragile thom yorkes of the world to tears like that
why did they truncate "I Will"? I think it could have benefitted from having the lead-in that the unmastered recording did
"The Gloaming" is a mess. It suffers from VSnaritis in that it has a lot of cool sounds that rhythmically have nothing to do with each other just piled on top of each other and posing it as electronic experimentialism.. I think this is sloppy pandering to those expecting Kid B. It's still pretty good thouhg.. the melody and that.
your thoughts on these points?

.. the word 'has' should be omitted from the paragraph that begins with "There There" (there there has officially...)

Four Tet is remixing Scatterbrain. Can't wait to hear what that sounds like.
