Go with the original webcast version. That's the best quality IMO. They totally ruined the tracks that's on the officially released EP by providing to them different mix. The very similar thing they did to Live In Madrid, live tracks (officially released on A Thousand Suns: Puerta de Alcalá and ATS bonus version) are not as best as the version released on ATS+, so I would recommend to have the ATS+ lossless version or at least mp3 that's on the DVD.

Take into account that all the tracks can be completely different demo versions from the previously released/leaked.

Kind of shocked of how much popularity that have.

It would be nice if all the beats on the release will have the names: 01.Beat1 (04.13.20) 02.Beat2 (04.14.20) 03.Beat3 (04.15.20) ...etc that would be perfect.

The prior thing they should do to all of those is fix the audio. It's not only the quality they all have 5.1 mix instead on stereo. Ans if they can fix all of those videos in all streaming platforms (Tidal, iTunes etc). Listen to few seconds of both to compare: 5.1 version - from LP official account stereo version - prepared by me

The one about mixing engineer was very interesting.

New version of the HDtracks store debuted yesterday. From now not only 24-bit versions of albums are there but also standard CD quality versions. Here's what's new: - in the main page of the artist, you are seeing one version of the album, chosen by default by store, but there are also other versions of the same album, e.g. in the Meteora album page you can choose 16-track bonus version from the menu; - you can see what is the quality of each song in 24-bit sample; - by using a "Copy Track Text" option, you can copy all of the info about any track and that includes: track quality, duration, release date, UPC code and the ISRC code of the track; - credits for each album, of course those are the same like in the other stores/stream platforms, because they comes from the same database. Links on the lists will be soon updated. Here's the list of all versions available on HDtracks:

I don't watch every single live stream Mike does, so thanks a lot for the info. Thank you for your work!

If it's about the iTunes Festival, I posted here, the list of all countries of where this ep is available. Maybe someone can help you to get it.

Phoenix was there 😀

Sapkowski can be a good example here. What did you expect by saying that to him? That he will Give you high five? WTF

I updated the info on the list in the main post. Thank you Pooch!

OK, it is no longer actual.

The promotion of that album and everything involved with that it's not what they came up with. And now when they saying something like this, they just confirm to anybody how amateur they are.

I remembering Mike mentioning a leak of "Battle Symphny" but still he was acting like it never happened. I don't remember any member of LP acting like GD: "Give us the individuals.." Give us the shit.

If you are releasing a music, you have to accept a fact that it will leak eventually (and there is no matter if it's gonna be on itunes, spotify or only on a vinyl that's released only in Japan), it will happen, you can't control it, so your best bet is to ignore that/don't worry about it. If you can't accept that, then don't release your music anywhere.

Kind of I can understand why Mike doesn't want to talk about it.

Mike Shinoda & Lights)"} link -------------------------------------------------- * Also, added to site, ** I decided to add LP videos that were available only for streaming on walmart.com, aol.com, strippedmusic.com. Also added to the site. -------------------------------------------------- 1) On the site, where Wal-Mart was selling digital music in mp3, you can see that there is a "Soundcheck EPs" category. So it is possible that all 5 live tracks from the Wal-Mart Soundcheck Performance was also there available to buy (we even have a UPC code there). Also, Wal-Mart was selling live soundcheck performances of other artists too. However, I didn't find a link to that live EP nor to the 14-track MTM edition with two live tracks there, so I didn't add them, 2) I added more source links to notes, to some releases that I found. For example - LOATR, Powerless, 3) I have noticed that LITE KillSonik remix on Castle Of Glass single has different ISRC code than the version on Recharged and LITE single. So I decided to compare the version from COG single and LITE single. But I haven't found any changes, besides the one that the version on COG single is a bit louder. I haven't sure if that little difference in loudness is the only reason why they registered it under the different ISRC code, so I asked Astat about it and this is what he said: Also, the same version like the one on the COG single was released on the Living Things Tour Edition. So I think that can be the reason why they additional mastering on the remix and after all they just take all the tracks from the tour edition and they released them on the Castle Of Glass single. I added to notes of Castle Of Glass single on the site that LITE remix has slightly different mastering. 4) The site contains some improvements, I also re-check all the links, I updated notes I many releases and in general I corrected a lot of the info there.

Simply because the song wasn't released as a single in digital format. They just released it as another track from the album, it contains album cover. And this release wasn't on iTunes, because they could just release the song in the album pre-order, but some stores/services (for example Spotify, google play store) they don't have that option, I mean they can post a pre-order of the album, but they can't make any new song available there (in the album pre-order), so they have to make a separate release just for that song, to make it available in those stores/services. The same case are for the rest of the songs in that section.

https://i.ibb.co/xqnV6rk/Untitled-3.jpg What is your opinion about this. Should I move all of those to the "Singles" section or keep them in "Others"? If it's about the "Singles" section, I'm adding only releases which are confirmed to be the official singles from the album. For example all singles from THP have own covers + they are in the discography on the band's official website. So that's clear enough. But if it's about the ones from the "Others" section, I always though they should be in the different section. All of them had the album cover. Besides NRL, all of them were released during the pre-order as another track from the album. There was no a clear statement if any of those are the official single or not. Another example - DBS released the track "Fire" on September 1st. It was during the pre-order of the album. The track had album version of the cover. Later, when the band decided that it will be the next single, they released the track again on December, this time with it's own cover.

It leaked.

I mean, it's a fact. I think it was on spotify. I think iTunes waits until there will be midnight everywhere. For example: Currie, Australia - 2 hours till the midnight Perth, Australia - 6 hours to midnight So for example the song could be not available yet on iTunes in Australia in 2 hours, but on spotify can be. Also: Aukland, new zealand - it's after midnight, the song is not out on iTunes, but it could be on spotify. This could work differently, depends on a platform.

Don't know which country it was but I remember someone posted screen of the Fine, the song was already available. That was long time before New Zealand. So NZ is not the first one.

It can leak and some people would be able to listen to it before it will be officially available in their countries.

Or you should say in some countries in few hours.
