Tim: Frida, we may or may not have noted before, has a lovely voice. But that’s not the loveliest thing about this track.
Tom: That’s pretty calm and, as you say, lovely – and I’m not sure, but is that a downward key change for the final bit?
Tim: Do you know, I think it might be. Unorthodox. Upsettingly, the loveliest thing about this has been almost entirely slaughtered by SoundCloud’s compression, because it’s the big synth notes that I really love about this, that appear for a bit in the middle and then return to bring it to a close.
Tom: That’s not Soundcloud: they don’t do compression.
Tim: Oh. Then…
Tom: That’s the mastering on the original track, and yes — it absolutely buries that synth under everything. It’s an odd decision.
Tim: Huh. It is, because they’re wonderful, and fit in beautifully with the strings that run underneath throughout; it’s just such a shame they sound so awful. Well can we have it remastered please? That’d be nice THANKS.
