Newt’s last post is about the releases of Odeluxe, but I want to make a note about the music. It appears upon first early listens, that there’s various changes to a lot of the songs… which could just be a trick of remastering, or real additions, I’m not sure yet. For instance the vocals on “Hotwax” appear to be have another vocal, and I think there may be a more prominent keyboard line on “Novacane,” and that a few songs have slightly longer\/different endings. Little stuff like that. Some close comparisons to the original version and the Deluxe version are necessary, and I definitely will try to do that. But help is needed, there’s a thread over on Stewoo.net about some of the differences, but if anyone notices anything on the Deluxe version that sounds funny\/new\/differently-mixed, feel free to post here in the comments, on Stewoo, or email almostaghost@gmail.com so we can start figuring out all exactly what Beck did to his masterpiece. :)<\/p>\n
Also apparently Spin Magazine has a short sentence in it saying that Beck and Nigel Godrich are back working on the next album… dunno if that’s just a rumor or not, but there it is. Good news, that.<\/p>\n
UPDATE:
\nList Of Things (this may take me awhile to do, but I’ll keep it here for now.)<\/p>\n
1. Devils Haircut – I noticed no difference between Odelay and Odeluxe.
\n2. Hotwax – Deluxe version has what sounds like an extra vocal track during the verses.
\n3. Lord Only Knows – I think the versions are exactly the same, if anything there might be some remastering making some things (bass, percussion) a little clearer.
\n4. The New Pollution -\u00c2\u00a0 identical. (tho a commenter below noted the intros sounding different, I don’t hear anything.\u00c2\u00a0 can anyone get more specific?)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
