Sunday v3

Revisiting an old track that I recorded and mixed, but never mastered. I don't have the original session unfortunately so changing anything is pretty hard, but I've added some extra compression, stereo widening, some nice EQ, and of course volume.

Never Better Master

I know I've posted various versions of this track so many times now, but recently I've decided to take this song to the studio, and have recorded studio drums and bass (as opposed to programs drums and DI bass).
