*A thir13en Production*



Smashing Pumpkins

"Mashed Potatoes"


I always knew I'd do the whole thing one day, it was just a matter of time. But, there is a slight catch; These will be appearing one disc at a time over the course of the next 10 days, working up to Xmas eve...so Happy Holidays!

It'll be set up so the whole thing will download into the one directory, when completed all 77 songs will be in order, in one folder.

I'd like to thank whoever uploaded this to alt.binaries.Smash-Pumpkins 4 years ago, that's where I got this source, and have enjoyed being able to hear it ever since.



The tech:

Each song is from a different source, origin, ambience...realm. So working on this is a bitch. Certain songs have been done here and there for various other thir13en'd compilations, like the "Off Their Rawkers" collections and the "Gish Live" project. But I've redone everything for this specific collection as it will help it retain a stable integrity across the five discs.

About the only thing that seems prevelant on every tune is an overwhelming boomy bottom-end and an unbalanced stereo image, sometimes left, sometimes right, but always an unnatural tilt. And the varied spectrum and flow of volumes from song to song is quite staggered. My ultimate goal, as always, is to create a more controlled environment for the collection as a whole, and therefore enjoy the easy playing of the discs without the need to alter each song in playback.

The warning:

If you're one that will enjoy this, then please do so. That's why it exists.

If you're one of those few, yet loud and bitter angst-ridden types that doesn't like me doing this...waaaaah, waaaaah, waaaah,...that's just too bad. You can feel free to bombard me with your hatred as I've grown to enjoy knowing how much this pisses you off. But seriously dudes, it's just a bunch of songs, you need to get out more.
