LOL!!
I'll have to figure out what the keyboard shortcut for a mono check is and change it.
This ranks within the top 5 of my engineering idiot blunders... somehow I activated the mono check before I rendered!! I remember listening to Mike Senior's version and being jealous, then listening to mine and thinking it sounded a little snotty. Well, that'd do it.
While I'm on the subject of Mike's mix, he went a completely different direction than I did. The song is listed as "dark break-based dance" and he definitely got a more danceable mix. Not having the artist here to explain his intentions, though, I noticed the oopy-gloopy bass synth was operating in the phrygian mode, which is normally associated with flamenco music and malaguenas... but for classic rock fans the Jefferson Airplane track "White Rabbit" comes to mind, or perhaps "Alone Again Or" by Love (if you haven't heard it, check it out and the entire Forever Changes album... the music is incredible and the story behind it even moreso), so I guess I forced my psychedelic interpretation on it when I shouldn't have. It'll work better I think with more high end and some of the space between notes cleared out a bit, the EQ is a little sloppy at the mo.

I'm grateful for comments and suggestions. Thank you for listening!
