“Here’s what ‘Deaf’ sounded like in my head when I was making it. Of particular note: The ridiculous reverbs in the original are tamed, the bass is up an octave for better audibility, the drums that were recorded in the wrong octave are righted, the drum sound effects in the middle don’t sound like an accident any more, that one note in the higher synth part on the Ab chord’s been fixed so it’s the right note, and the whole thing’s mixed a lot better.”
