C_Matt's "The Miracle (HD Revision 2.0)"

Hi, everyone! Here I deliver to you 'I Want It All (Album Version)'. This is a pre-mix, but it has a lot of work on it. You may hear a restored guitar bit and a clean bass line, heavier drums, a stronger Freddie and harsher keys. It was really a pleasure to work with this song, and really hard to mix and don't make it all sound a mess.

Enjoy!

Brillant !!

Seems like it was released yesterday, it sounds so fresh !! I love the way you mixed the last "nooooowww", we can hear Freddie joking like he was crying... and Thanks for the little gift in the end, the bass line is killing !

And anyway I'd like to wish you a magnific year!

I love how the drums and bass sounds punchier in the mix. Nicely done! Nice cliffhanger of IWIA's B-side btw :)

Sounds amazing. So "open".
At 4.23-4.26 there's some sound (someone talking?) in the background that I've never heard before and it's actually a bit distracting from the flow....
Oh. it's what Ouhsammy above seems to have picked up on and he likes it.
Hmm. it's not for me that bit. It feels messy.

The drums' sound is stronger and clear. Love it!

Btw, in Hang On In There, is it possible to at least reduce the "squishing" sound on the snare from the verses? I always find that snare sound odd, I never liked it. I wouldn't mind if you wanna keep it in though, it's just a little suggestion I had in mind for that song.

I think the vocal thing is actually a product of the multitracks. It's way harder to hear in the proper version, but in the multitracks it's mixed differently and you can hear clearly how it's more like "now-how-how-hoo"

Yessss !! thanks Matt !! sounds amazing and, as usual, love noticing those previously lost bits of the original mix !

Hey C_Matt,

I'm digging this version of I Want It All, mostly the heavier sounding snare and the lesser using of the keys, I like it that the only times you hear the keys are in the bridge and in the end (where they indeed sound harsher,
but I like it!)

Thanks for taking the time to do these kind of things to (for us) well known songs! It shines a new light on them.

Keep up the good work!

Helloooooooooooooooo!!!! I'm back. I've Been working with several albums at the same time, searching a cool EQ to make these revisions more clean and equilibrated between all the albums I worked with, reaching too a louder volume without the need of compressing anything. Sadly, I can't push anymore the volume without ruining the wave.

Thank you for the replies and the wishes! Really, to everyone of you, I'm have only 15 minutes now and can't respond one per one, but I've read them all.

About IWIA, yes, the very ending was already mixed that way in the multitracks, but I really loved how it sounded, is like everything is falling. I could do an alternative mix with the album "noooooooowwww...". And yes, I tried to give more presence to the guitars, since this song is mainly guitar based and the keys were a bit loud. The keys are aggressive and give some harshness to the song, but the guitar have all that momentum an energy that this song needs.

Here's "Scandal"... I really like the result, but wasn't easy and took a lot of hours to make it work. While working with this I discovered infinite hidden details, and a great part of them  were enhanced. Anyway, a lot remains in the shadow. Should I make "enhanced mixes" for these albums too? (like QII).

I repeat this just in case: If I disappear, that doesn't means that this project is dead. I won't finish it until it is finished, and that means when all Queen discography is done... maybe I'll continue with the solo careers, or at least some songs, but for now I have a really long journey ahead.

Thank you for being here, and thanks to all those who download this revisions but don't comment too!

Enjoy "Scandal"!

Thanks Matt, looking forward to listening to your work as always

I love Scandal and I was listening to it (the album version) as I went from work. In the album version there's such a 80's sound, and especially with Scandal. With your work it just seems it was released yesterday ! Freddies voice is so fresh and so strong here. You did an amazing work, as always. We're so lucky to have such a quality and sensitive work. So thank you for all.
