I recently checked out the main and the bonus editions on spotify and some other platforms and the label already fixed that.

 

 

Yes on spotify and some other platforms there are 3 different versions of the WID single each one with different tracklist but since 2012 none of them currently have the single version of the song.

Must be a geo thing because both of these things are untrue for me

 

EDIT: actually, never mind - you're right on both 😄 

 

I got confused in the case of "What I've Done" because, on Spotify, there's still the fade-in at the start but it's a fade-in with the keyboard tail instead of without

What's the difference between the WID single and album editions? Needless to say that I agree with all of you that this release was lazy 

The single edit of "What I've Done", also used in the song's music video, doesn't include the ending of the keyboard interlude carrying over from "Shadow Of The Day" on the album. In turn, the single edit of "Shadow Of The Day" ends with the delayed guitar and sample loop fading out and doesn't include the keyboard interlude. Some of these singles and such might not be available worldwide.

BUT if that messes up Meteora transitions then don't do it. It may be harder to have multiple song versions on digital streaming than we think and have them all count for the same play counts. Are there examples of this in music? Like if they put the single version of What I've Done up? It isn't on Spotify.

 

Funnily enough, he main editions of "Meteora" on digital platforms currently wrongly use the single of "Faint" (an error which was avoided on the anniversary edition of "Meteora") so the transitions are already messed up. And, at least where I am, some of the singles, including "What I've Done", are on Spotify

Honestly, I'd have close to zero interest in a CC reissue.

 

CC is basically a glorified mash-up thing. It was cool for what it was, even got a huge internal hit, but in essence, it's already "rehash" of older material. 

 

Which would make a reissue a "rehash of a rehash". That's going a bit too far I think, but that's only my opinion of course 😛

It might've been a bit too difficult because of the sheer number of names involved, but I think it would've been cool if they included "Collision Course" content in the "Meteora" anniversary set, like how "Reanimation" was included for the "Hybrid Theory" set. That's where it would belong, in my opinion

And just like i thought - Numb/Encore is the only one with new mastering, other songs are untouched.

 

EDIT: also New Divide.

Did you come to this conclusion because these tracks aren't available in hi-res yet? I'm a bit confused

There's a break from "Grindin'" in there as well, that comes in after the "My Name" verse

I've given this a couple of listens now. From what all of us can see, you guys did a lot of things right as far as approaching a group project, and that's the most important thing.

 

My definite favourite is the "Lost" rmx by Pat and Blup

I'm kinda wondering, and I have to ask, are there multitracks for these tracks? I'm specifically talking about "Echo In The Way", in my case, because I have an idea of sorts for the song (which would require the multitracks, if they exist). Mainly the vocal multitracks.

Most of these remixes likely used elements which were manually separated out of the main mixes. Results may vary, and I'm personally pretty impressed with what this team appears to have achieved

Hopefully the home stretch wasn't too stressful for you @SerioDrew 👍

 

 

"Echo" at this tempo is a cool idea. Plus, I haven't listened to any glitch-hop in a minute

Just what I can pick out straight away:

 

One of the songs right after ALTNC is a mash-up of The Prodigy's "Need Some1" and Jay-Z's "Public Service Announcement (Interlude)", and, then, over that same beat, there's another vocal which I don't know, and, after that, there's a snippet of Beastie Boys' "Intergalactic"

 

The vocal playing over the "Faint" intro is from Travis Scott's "NO BYSTANDERS"

Geek stuff for LPedia: Watching as I Fall has a partially recycled the beat from In Stereo.

 

The rhythm is similar but it's not an unusual one or anything - beyond that, I personally don't hear anything from "In Stereo"

"Bleed It Out", "What I've Done", "Given Up", "Burning", "Blackout", "Wretches", "The Catalyst" and "The Messenger" are the ones I've seen

Shinoda talked about the "Enth E ND" video in one of those 2002 LPU chat sessions as well, IIRC

 

Also, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcAf3exJx8A

Are you guys sure that "Fire In The City" had vox?

STP: ''Chester is doing great with STP, I have nothing to do with them, i offered myself to work with them but they ended up doing their thing by themselves.''

Definitely for the best, at the very least because Shinoda is now working on the next Linkin Park album.

that's exactly what SergSlim talk about one post before.

Oh, crap - sorry, then!

 

4 GT 10 - Fish Market

Similarly, "Enth E ND" appeared on a 2004 KutMasta Kurt mixtape called "Redneck Games"

I wasn't sure how to answer the "What are your favorite bands that you would like to see tour with Linkin Park" question. It's like two separate questions. Because as much as I'd love it, I don't think it's realistic to expect the Linkin Park/Arcade Fire/Nine Inch Nails/Massive Attack tour to happen any time soon. So I picked some of my favorite smaller bands.

Yeah, I spent a long time trying to answer this one because basically none of my other favourite artists would really fit the bill playing before or after Linkin Park in my opinion

There are also these versions of "Waiting For The End" which are officially-commissioned remixes done by Dave Dresden and DJ Lynnwood for a single release which was I guess was scrapped

I just registered to give a mention that Holly Brook came out and sang on the hook for "Believe Me", in addition to "Where'd You Go", at Fort Minor's show in Sydney, Australia; I thought that should be added to the notes.
