    sweetfantasybaby reacted to Rocco Comelon in DL: Fever (Hot Sweat Mix) *Analog-Digital Reconstruction* 8:26   
    Here is the analog-digital reconstruction I made for Hot Sweat Mix of Fever, sourced from lossless digital and analog rip files. This has different mixing from the Hot Sweat 12" Mix that has been released and can only be heard on vinyl promo (or cassette??).
    If you're wondering why this has a shorter duration than the ripping we have, it's because the rate speed of the analog rip we have was not corrected and it's slower than the official/digital release. I meticulously reconstructed it to match the points of every beat and the elements of the remix and equalize the analog parts to match the sounding of the digital source. Most of the parts are from digital source, patching with the analog source for few parts that are missing from the digital to match the mixing.
     
    Analog parts that are patched and EQ'ed:
    0:31 - 0:49
    6:02 - 6:10
    8:21 - 8:23
     
    *Photo below shows patching the drum single beat interpolation which can be heard on the left channel at the end of the track - digital source*

    Quad-mixes were launched back in the 70's, and is music remixed to four speakers instead of two. It's early surround mixes.
    The Quad mix of The Dark Side Of The Moon with Pink Floyd sounds incredible.
    Now I have a whole bunch of records in 5.1 surround, and they are fantastic. You hear more details of the song that otherwise is buried in a stereo mix, and it elevates the listening expreience.
    Like someone here said, Ray Of Light would sound fantastic in surround. 
    Someone at Warner Canada said on some red carpet interview back in 2007-2008 that Madonna's back catalog was being remixed in 5.1, so hopefully there are surround mixes of her albums, and I really hope they'll show up on the future deluxe editions that we're waiting for.

    Mmm.. maybe the diaries are but you can easily prove a lot of things he says in interviews wrong like dates and such. Let alone that he contradicts himself a lot. 
    I'm not saying he is malicious about it because memories fade and he is not a stan like us who thinks about those things everyday, but still...

    At the end of the day we also have Madonna on record attributing Express Yourself to Pat Leonard and remembering the VMAs 84 and American Bandstand differently than the actual footage...

    Love Hurts - Junior track

    sweetfantasybaby reacted to EgoRod in Has Shep Pettibone heard Love Hurts demo?   
    My theory is that Shep created all of this stories and explanations about his project to make it more relevant and about him working with Madonna.
    At the time he could say whatever because it  was shared in an magazine interview and little more.
    Love Hurts sounds like a demo of Erotica.That probably she brought to him and he reworked removing any musical trace from Junior.
    Then when asked, came up with some ideal fabrication not expecting the internet to evolve into the monster of today where everything is shared and recorded.

    Agree, Love Hurts is a great track I go to very often.
    I always guess why when Erotica got to her final stage they simply chose to take You thrill me off. She clearly likes that song (she included it in the Confessions and in the Celebration tour) and it's actually sexy and dramatic and cool at the same time. They could have produced a new instrumental, maybe writing some spoken parts and include it in the album. I'm sure it would have worked better than Did you do it, don't you?

    I got lost with the amount of demos for the song Erotica aka Erotic aka Love hurts aka You Thrill Me..
    Really can someone make a definitive chronological list of the demos before it simply became Erotica?
    I really doubt any other Madonna song has had so many demos/versions before it got finalized!

    Go out and buy "The Music of James Bond" by John Burlingame.
     
    Work began on the song early in 2002, according to French Michel Colombier, who wrote and conducted the string arrangement, Colombier (a veteran composer whose credits included the pop symphony Wings and film scores for White Nights and Against All Odds) had recently worked with Madonna and her Paris-based producer Mirwais Ahmadzaï on their album Music, supplying the string arrangement for the song "Don't Tell Me.
    Madonna and Mirwais (as he was known professionally) were working on her next studio album when the call came from "the Bond people, Colombier said. One of the songs they were working on "could maybe work for it," Mirwais told Colombier; they sent a demo to the studio that was "this techno thing," an electronica piece rewritten to accommodate the film and the title. According to Colombier, the studio responded: "We love the song, but can you bridge it to the tradition of Bond in some way?" That's when Madonna and Mirwais called Colombier to help.
    MGM sent Colombier (who was in Los Angeles) a rough edit of the opening of the film. "I knew that I had to do something film-score-esque; he said. Mirwais sent Colombier a long version of the Madonna-Mirwais track, Colombier wrote "a bunch of things to it" and then flew to London to conduct an ensemble of 60 string players at AIR Studios. From there, Mirwais took the track back to Paris and then did "a complete production job," Colombier said. "What you hear is not what I wrote. The way that it came out is completely Mirwais. He is a master manipulator. Sixty real strings, played live, became audio files in his computer. They can be chopped like pieces of fabric. He's amazingly brilliant with that."
    Colombier also designed an instrumental version of the theme for possible use over the end titles. Madonna attended the recording session in London, he noted. "In the instrumental version, there is a moment when I went into almost a tango feeling. At the rehearsal, they did it extremely well, instinctively. When we started doing the take, it just lost the 'fire.' Madonna, in the booth, grabbed the talkback mic and told them, It's not sexy enough, think about sex!' She really participates."
    Colombier's rich string arrangement provided the drama, especially in the opening measures before Madonna's vocal enters. Her cryptic lyrics were a curiosity ("I'm gonna keep this secret / I'm gonna close my body now . . .") but Mirwais's electronica sounds, which dominate the track, made "Die Another Day" the most sonically edgy Bond theme ever. (Soon afterward, Madonna asked Colombier to score her film Swept Away, which would be released later in 2002, a month before the Bond film.)
    The track apparently went through various incarnations. "We went through several interpolations of it." producer Michael G. Wilson later said, "but I think when she saw the rough material we were going to use, she sort of adapted the song and changed the title to 'Die Another Day." Added director Lee Tamahori: "When I first heard it, I was a little concerned because it seemed to have stops and starts and didn't seem to be that evocative. But she rewrote--the chorus was written for the movie, and I think it's made quite a profound difference."
    As Madonna herself said before the film's release: "I hemmed and hawed about it for a while. Everybody wants to do the theme song of a James Bond movie, and I never like to do what everybody else likes to do. It's just some perverse thing in me. But then I thought about it and I said, you know what? James Bond needs to get techno.
    Years later, she praised Colombier's contribution: "Mirwais brought Michel to me. That song is so cinematic; I'm so excited when I get to work with a live orchestra. Those strings in Die Another Day' are chilling and, because of that, it's one of my favorite songs."

    I love his work on Music and AL. But didn't care for Madame X. So I'm not sure how I'd feel about more new stuff from them.

    Yes but the same sampled vocals from Goodbye To Innocence are in both remixes, what I meant is that they were likely made in the same time span, did not mean the same remixer! Personally I never liked MB’s remixes
