That's so bizarre, why wouldn't Lana's team keep the originals in highest quality or at least contact producers to access them 

maybe they didn't have the OG files anymore. but also i'm still not entirely convinced they were youtube rips i don't understand what proof there is of that. don't they sound remastered if not remixed? idk

I would assume if she reached out to Barrie to get an ok to release the songs they did, she would get original files that way but, this is Lazy Del Rey we’re talking about. Maybe he didn’t have them either (doubt it tho)

Even WE have them, they could've simply googled miss daytona collection and downloaded the full sessions.

The files were checked on Spek, even UFB is avaiable in higher quality than them

Do we have proof that these songs are not in lossless quality on Apple Music and Tidal? If we do, someone could email them and they would have to get the lossless files since they are promising that quality. I honestly don’t notice a difference though.

I don’t have the ear most of you have for this sorta things (as in the NFR era, when everybody was picking at the production flaws that I never heard). I listen to the album on my good headphones, on Apple Music, and I might hear a slight difference with the rest of the album, but it’s not that major (it’s always better than the mp3 quality that I had, I must say).

I wouldn't say that the agreement was obtained orally. There had to be signed papers showing that Barrie agreed Lana to use the songs. Also, it's not up to lana to fix the quality of the songs, she has the whole team to do that... I'm leaning towards the idea that the originals were lost...

Not every single song off Blue Banisters entering my Apple Music 2021 playlist already after one week :crying4:

 

I can’t believe she really released two amazing albums in one year 

I can't put the songs on any playlist, I can only listen to the whole album in the given order.

Listening to this together with Chemtrails over the Country Club is something else. :lange:

I asked Asmodeus (the demon of lust) to make Miley Cyrus suffer. I am not happy with these new developments. After Miley rips off Lana's aesthetic, she bullies Lana into changing her release date. It is infuriating.

:oprah3: it should be mandatory, at this point, to revisit Chemtrails (the yin part of the project) now that we have the « yang album » that is BB.

THIS. This is why I want to have words with the fucking MIXERS. LIKE I DO NOT UNDERSTAND.

why are the vocals on arcadia placed so far forward in the mix

why is the quality so shit on BBS

why does the wacky metal sounding literally drown out her vocal on BBS outro

dont even get me started on WW crunch ass drums

 

I love this record and i love her unhinged production choices but theres a difference between production quirks and production errors

ok rant over
