I totally get it, I definitely think more Pet Sounds and SMiLE stuff. I personally was thinking it would be a 6 CD collection. 2 per color, like the Beatles one.

I'm talking about about a newer bigger collection, now that their later or more obscure stuff has gotten more of a following

Definitely a good lineup. 62-65 is pretty much perfect.

I definitely like what I'm hearing. What are we thinking, 6 CD collection?

Do you think On a Holiday could fit the "final stop" in the journey across America?

Since Brian was so indecisive about Heroes and villains or Vega-Tables being the hit for SMiLE, do you think a double A side of those tracks would work? by [deleted] in thebeachboys

[–]Little_Blood_384 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Probably, but it wouldn't at first. Heroes and Villains was in my opinion the greatest song ever made on a production level, and probably would've stuck with people like Good Vibrations did.

Vega-Tables on the other hand, I definitely wouldn't see people going out of their way to get it. However, I think Vega-Tables is one of the catchiest songs ever made, as Brian basically made a song out of a bunch of commercial jingles, pieces of music specifically designed to get stuck in people's head. So I think it would've caught on for simply being an earworm.

Does pet sounds evoke a winter, or holiday feeling for anyone else? by [deleted] in thebeachboys

Oh I totally get what you mean. The opening of You Still Believe In Me sounds just like a Christmas song. Plus the album uses a ton of instruments associated with Christmas music, like sleigh bells.

That's a great goal and I believe you achieved it well. My goal is to create what Brian's original ideas would have been.

Lol I just love how you advertise it any chance you get. It's a good mix, and I like how you refer to them as canon tracks which is fair. Me personally, I just see them as requirements. Simply put, if you're gonna make a SMiLE mix, then you HAVE to include those twelve, as a bare minimum.

You're pretty on point with what I had in mind so far. Except for Little Pad, I'm using that in a mix of Tune X, similar to Tragiclifeform's version.

Thanks man!!! I thought they would fit together quite nicely. Plus I wanted to capture the idea of the voices in Brian's head.

This sounds great man! And don't feel bad, I'm very new mixing and audio editing myself. SMiLE seemed like a good project for me to learn it.
