We've tried for years to get Linkin Park to release old shows as part of the DSP program. Nothing happened and Warner stopped releasing new shows after 2012 because there wasn't interest from fans. They weren't getting enough money to justify the amount of work being put into it. Back then someone, I think Mike, said he would like to release more DSPs, but it was up to the label. We did a huge petition in collaboration with other fan sites asking them to release shows again and once again nothing happened.

I'd say leave it as it is.

Another great musician was lost this week. Steve Gaines, best known as Baba Zumbi from the hip-hop project Zion I, passed away amidst a battle with COVID-19. Close friends said the cause of death was a complication from the disease but his family refrained from confirming. DJ True Justice, a touring DJ for Zion I, said Gaines was recovering from COVID-19 when "he had a severe asthma attack and his heart stopped. He died in the hospital. They were unable to revive him." He was reportedly hesitant about receiving the vaccine. A statement from his family says: It is with utter disbelief and great sadness that the Gaines family shares the news of the passing of Steve “Zumbi” Gaines on Friday, August 13, 2021. Gaines, 49 and the MC of the critically acclaimed hip-hop group Zion I, passed away at Alta Bates Hospital today in the early morning from unknown causes. The family requests privacy in this very challenging time while they await further details. Steve is survived by three sons, his mother and his brother. He was working on a Zion I reunion tour with longtime producer and collaborator, Amp Live, to honor the legacy of their musical endeavors for their fans. Zion I was founded in 1996 by Baba Zumbi and DJ and producer AMP Live. Their debut album Mind Over Matter was released in 2000 to critical acclaim in the underground scene, being nominated for "Independent Album of the Year" by The Source and featured in HipHopDX's "30 Best Underground Hip Hop Albums Since 2000" list in 2015. The group collaborated with Linkin Park on a remix of 'A Place For My Head' on Reanimation. The original remix submitted for the album was rejected by the band, leading them to creating the version that eventually made the album. The track was recorded at Blue Room Studios and Mike Shinoda's home studio dubbed The Stockroom. Watch below a short interview with Zumbi about working with Mike. Source: KQED

Becko (real name Marco Calanca) has announced on Twitter that his song 'Darkest Days' from the #ShinodaProduceMe initiative is set for a September 8th release. The Italian artist/producer is signed to Celldweller's electronic rock label FiXT. His music is a blend of hip-hop, metal, EDM and alternative rock with melodic, screaming and rap vocals. Last year he released a cover of Linkin Park's 'Faint' on his compilation album "CVRS" and a cover of 'Crawling' as part of his "Genesis" EP. 'Darkest Days' was produced by Mike Shinoda live on Twitch earlier this year, on February 1st and 2nd. The original multitracks sent by Becko were pretty complete, with vocal tracks - along with three tracks of reverb, delay, and other effects -, three other groups of tracks including keyboard, synth and guitar; and a bass group present in the verses. The structure of the song was quite traditional with only one chord progression present. Mike recorded new keyboard additions, 808 beats and guitar parts for the song. He set out to experiment with it as he explained: “One thing I want to do with these production streams in particular is … if the song comes in sounding like … it fits easily into a box … I’m gonna try to work out of that box. Like if it’s, ‘this sounds like really good Warped Tour music’, then I gotta do something to it that takes it out of that. Because if you want ‘that’, then you’d go somewhere else and get that, or you’d just make that yourself. But my job is to say, ‘okay, how can I make it sound, in my opinion, more interesting than that?’.” UPDATE: Release date was postponed to September 17.

Kid Brunswick released today, July 30th, his new mixtape XFOREVER on which Mike Shinoda worked as executive producer. In addition, he is credited as composer/lyricist for the tracks 'The Feel' and 'Skin.' Kerrang! reports that Mike decided to reach out to him after listening to his 2020 single Bipolar Rhapsody. Brunswick was pretty excited when that happened as Meteora is his all time favorite album. He explained Mike's role on the record: “Mike basically said to me, ‘Write some songs, we’ll work on them together, structure them together, talk about the project and what it means to you and approach this as a team.’ I was like, ‘Holy shit – I thought he’d just want to work on one song!’ To my knowledge, I’m the only British artist that he’s come on board and executive produced thus far, which is nuts. Mike seems to really love the record, and I’m unbelievably excited about it too.” Mike says they've talked about doing more music together in the future.

Joey Jordison, Slipknot’s founding drummer has passed away in his sleep on Monday at the age of 46. The cause of death wasn't disclosed. A statement from his family reads: “Joey’s death has left us with empty hearts and feelings of indescribable sorrow. To those that knew Joey, understood his quick wit, his gentle personality, giant heart, and his love for all things family and music. The family of Joey have asked that friends, fans, and media understandably respect our need for privacy and peace at this incredibly difficult time.” The musician battled years ago with transverse myelitis, a form of multiple sclerosis that affected his back and his legs, reason why he parted ways with Slipknot. In addition to Slipknot, Jordison has been a member of Vimic, Murderdolls, Scar The Martyr, Sinsaenum and pre-Slipknot bands Modifidious and The Have Nots. He also made guest appearances on recordings by Otep, Necrophagia, and Rob Zombie and assembled several supergroups in 2005 for the Roadrunner United project in celebration of the 25th anniversary of Roadrunner Records. Slipknot toured with Linkin Park in 2001 on the iconic Ozzfest tour. Source: Rolling Stone

New Xero Titles: "Dreamer" and "Weight"
lpliveusername replied to lpliveusername's topic in Newswire
Guys, a working title is literally what the name suggests, a title they used while working on the song. Having a different name doesn't mean it was a different song. Could be the same thing that's on the album but under a different title. It doesn't have to be a Blue vs. Crawling situation. Just listen to Dust Brothers and Now I See, they are the same song as With You. -
New Xero Titles: "Dreamer" and "Weight"
lpliveusername replied to lpliveusername's topic in Newswire
Harmonic Song was just a working title. Like any other song, it went through various stages of development until they arrived to the final product. It's impossible to know what the original seed was. Mike himself said he doesn't remember how the song was started (see Linkinpedia). Note that Rob's schedule from Jeff Blue's book lists the song both as "Harmonic Song" (working title) and "Pushing Me Away" (final title). Every other song in the list was already fully developed at that point. It's more than likely that Pushing Me Away was as well since it already had a title taken from the lyrics. I think what Rob recorded during that period was the same drum tracks you hear in the album. -
Not sure what kind of answer you're looking for. I think the only one who can help you is the person who edited the DVD. lol No and likely no.

The alternate versions of No Roads Left and Across The Line aren't available on HDTracks (at least in my country), only Shadow Of The Day. You can find them on Apple Music or Amazon: https://music.apple.com/us/album/minutes-to-midnight-deluxe-edition/590427297 https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07W12SNYS/ If you own physical copies of Minutes To Midnight (Tour Edition) and LP Underground 9.0: Demos, then yes, you have the original versions. If you don't have them and would like to purchase digital versions: -
Live In Texas is a mix of two different shows filmed on different places and different dates. Collision Course is one show, recorded in one day.

This. Sounds like something taken from a musical.

Sorry, I can't answer that because I don't have it. Someone would have to purchase the CD and provide a download.

Sorry, checked again and it's Instagram, not YouTube. Yeah. Tyler Bates handles the Dark Nights Death Metal soundtrack. Virtually every song has input from him. On the announcement they said they worked with him on the song + they called it "Retro Version" like you said. Today Sean replied to someone saying the album version will be different. The album is being done with Esjay as we all know.

Thank you for the explanation. That was my first thought too when I read "3D Audio" both on Amazon's and Apple's press releases. But from the files I have it does seem like they have a fixed amount of channels and I did see reports of some elements missing from the songs when people played the album in stereo sound systems.
