If you've downloaded the stems/multitracks for Holiday, you probably noticed that they're actually from Shep Pettibone/Goh Hotoda mix (a.k.a. the Q-Sound mix). You probably also noticed that they're similar in length to the album version. So I've used them to make this new mix which imagines what the Q-Sound mix would have sounded like had it not been edited down to 4 minutes.
I've tried to be as true to the original Q-Sound mix here as possible. The exceptions being that it's not mixed in actual Q-Sound, since I don't have (or want) the technology to do so. Also, I've increased the tempo to 118 bpm, as the Q-Sound mix did, but without altering the pitch. (Back then I think they just increased the tape speed, whereas these days we would beatmap.)
Any and all constructive criticism and feedback is appreciated and welcome. I'm an amateur mixer, of course, and would like to get better and better at this.
I hope you all enjoy!
