i don't really know how it's meant to be presented...

all i know is that i've listened to it at least a dozen times through and i quite like how it is.

Aren't all UW albums like a journey? Do you not, at least once and a while, listen to one or two tracks off an album without listening to the whole thing from start to finish? ;)

Re: LovelyBrokenThing: Break into tracks?
 

Indeed they are, and indeed i do. But "Lovely Broken Thing" isn't an album in the traditional "long player" sense. Nor are the songs all entirely clear-cut as to where they start or stop (particularly those after Peggy Sussed).

ive been FF to Lenny Penny lately. 10min commute to work. all i would hear on a daily basis would be JAL and Billy Goat. :D

because i use an iPod, its no big deal, but if it were burned to disc and in my car, it would be a bit bothersome having to literally hold down the FF button for a few minutes

oh, i think they are. Hence the cue file i posted above. mp3directcut did the job perfectly without re-encoding.

Difference of opinions! No prob. But anyway, here's again what Rick and Karl wrote:

"the downloads will consist of 5/6 different pieces interwoven, mixed, blended, whatever you want to call it into a single piece 25/30 minutes in length."

I'm interpreting it as a single piece. you are unweaving, unmixing, etc. i totally agree that this is possible and perhaps more convenient for listening. i just got the impression that, what with the new means of release, the inclusion of the photo gallery, the new musical theme/direction/influence/whatever, that this was to be digested like one concept.

but to each their own! ;) :)

Re: LovelyBrokenThing: Break into tracks?
 

Well, by cutting it, if i listen to the whole thing from start to finish its just the same as if im listening to the original mp3. this way just means i can add to my playlist with other things and randomise.

Re: LovelyBrokenThing: Break into tracks?
 

i think sometimes you would like to mix or include certain parts of it on a CD-R or mp3 player and not the whole thing.

like put peggy sussed as the first track.

Re: LovelyBrokenThing: Break into tracks?
 

do what you like with it!

when i downloaded it i was in a hurry so its in the car as a cd in a oner... a nice listen... but i've got an hour commute.....

now on pc its split up and mixed in with each other in Ableton live and set on a loop at work... when i get bored i mix it up... computers are great.

just my 2 cents...


HOW AM I??? YOU BEEN CHEATING ON ME WITH MY BEST FRIEND!
