I actually find the compression/EQ on that Passenger vocal mix painful. It spikey pierces in a bad way.

Dang, sounds like he's on lithium. He's a good singer though, sounds like Cat Stevens but two octaves higher. His voice is just too weird for me. Mix sounds very nicely balanced.

well, by now you all know my taste, since i like the ryan adams song sound/snare/etc. the passenger mix ain't my cup of tea. i don't like his voice either. and the mix is off course properly done but boring to me. to standard, to middle of the road. i heard that a milion times before. i much prefer something else, a fat snare for example ... :-)

Have you seen the report in the NYT?
Having a crap single is the least of his worries.
Ive been a fan since the Whiskeytown days but if any of what he is accused of is true? It’s all he said/she said at the moment but there appears to be a voluminous digital trail of very sketchy behaviour. Putting it mildly.
Lost for words really.

But multiple people with pretty much the same story sure gives the impression that it is. |

Yeah, I don’t know if it crosses the line into criminality but sexting with a 14 year old? Allegedly? And just manipulative scumbag at best.

Ok said I was lost for words. I’ll just say very sad if any of it proves to be true.

I think most of it is just disgruntled women he had flings with, but some of it is sleazy. Evidently he kept asking the young girl how old she was, but she wouldn't say, or said she was older than she was. Still, I think he knew and was disconnected from reality. Drug addiction can do that to you.

Sleazy is I think understating things. Again, if true. All this is alleged. And drug addiction does not excuse this behaviour.

I really don't mind the snare at all. But the kick is WAY loud in the mix. I also feel Ryan's songs need a different sound to this, to come alive. This song would sound excellent with his "usual" sound aesthetics. IMHO, obviously.
He needs to spend more time with Ethan Johns again. That goes for Ray Lamontagne as well.

Geoff Except that it's a he said / she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, and she said. I admit I'm a little surprised anyone is surprised by this (not speaking directly to you, Geoff). If anyone has followed his career, his personality structure is not exactly a revelation. |

The dudes get the benefit of the doubt and the chicks get the door-prize: Assumed Gold-digger/Attention-whore Status. |

Yeah, one of the biggest problems in this age of exposing men behaving very badly is there always a few woman who are willing to exchange their body’s for the life of fame and luxury. The Me Too movement has to do something about these enablers as well if they ever want to solve the problem. I have never understood these powerful egocentric men, I always have found part of the excitement centered on the concept that “ she” actually wants to be with me. The whole idea that I manipulated someone with whatever powers is a concept I don’t comprehend. |
