Riding Shotgun

More Violet Wild Mixes

Last night, after the sad discovery that iPod doesn't play flac files, I rushed to convert the Violet Wild tracks I have to MP3, to listen to on my iPod.

As I said earlier, the amount of Violet Wild tracks I have is pretty impressive, and got me all the way to the city, which is a bit over 40 minutes worth. Pretty impressive, since they don't have anything released yet. Listening to the tracks on an iPod, the differences between the Steve French mixes and the most recent ones was very evident. Not that it hasn't been anyway, but... The other thing that stood out was the high end in the Steve French mixes, which I questioned whether was purely the mixes, or the fact that I recorded them using my laptop. Hence I decided to re-record them tonight.

Of course, most of the earlier tracks are no longer on Myspace. However, the upside on visiting Violet Wild's Myspace page I came across another new version of Along For The Ride. All the tracks have also been replaced with "EP 2007 Big Panda", which may imply that the CD is close to coming out. And may imply that Hitchicker, Luna, Rare Disease and Along For The Ride are on it. I don't quite like the newer version as much as the earlier version (and obviously not as much as the Mink Rebellion version), but as I've said before, you can never have enough versions of Along For The Ride. The version of Hitchhiker up there is also new - and has nothing on the Mink version, but that's okay too.
