Lol I just found it but it sounds cute! do we know if it's a Higher Than Heaven outtake or a new song?

I can't care less about Portals nowadays ngl. That unnecessary elongation of the era is so tired I'm glad she's back on the studio though, hopefully we get to never hear about Cry baby anymore. She should write off-character, it is such an unexplored field for her

I think, just think but not entirely sure (almost though), that these three were just YouTube rips she put in the album for some reason. The Spek for each shows lossy af files even from FLAC or WAV CD/Qobuz/Tidal rips. Now, it's true we got lossless leaks for Cherry Blossom and Nectar of the Gods + 320 kbps for Living Legend, so that's why the leaks sound better. But I could swear the released versions are just some YouTube/SoundCloud rips. Essentially, rips from the leaks so that would be the same mix than the leaks, just in worse quality

I'm glad we all can agree Born to Die and Honeymoon are her best engineered and mixed albums. My top 3 remain Lust for Life, Chemtrails and Norman but some songs in them really slip away in terms of mixing

Ooooh thanks for clarifying! I always thought it was one of those songs like Fingertips iirc (correct me if I'm wrong but I swear I read that somewhere), where she used a voice memo I think. Now, if Kintsugi is actually a studio recording... what in the HELL is that vocal production

In Chemtrails, where she switches from "go to the market, the kids' swimming pools" to "baby, what's your sign?", it's very noticeable it's a different vocal take, or at least the EQ sounds different, deeper if you will? With more lows.

Arcadia, Text Book and Kintsugi. I love all three songs, but let me put in words what I mean. Arcadia - it has a terrible compression in the chorus (the vocals clash horribly it even distorts), and the overall mixing is very weird, even at such a simple instrumentation. Text Book - some parts are so off tempo that it sounds improvised. Couldn't she had done another take with more rehearsals? Btw this also applies for Candy Necklace's second chorus, the part where Jon starts playing faster but Lana hadn't finished singing so he had to slow down and she hurries up? It's too noticeable to ignore. Kintsugi - sounds like a voice memo placed over an instrumental - or worse, an instrumental created around a voice memo, which I'm certain it is. Again, she should've rehearsed the song based on the voice memo and then have a professional, in-studio recording for it, instead of using the first thing she recorded on her phone. @Charlottexseax at least that's what I find wrong with Kintsugi, but idk if they would mention something different.

LP - Churches (2021) When We Touch Goodbye Everybody's Falling in Love The One That You Love One Last Time How Low Can You Go Can't Let You Leave Conversation Safe Here Angels Rainbow Churches Poem
