So, some years ago I very quickly recorded a version of "Across the Universe" as part of a Christmas gift for my grandfather. Sadly, it was very poorly recorded (and played, for that matter, as I hadn't touched an instrument in years), and almost randomly mixed, as I knew absolutely nothing at all about mixing at the time.

I've recently found myself curious about this mysterious art of mixing, and as I was reorganising my files after moving to a new computer I found this old recording and thought it was as good a candidate as any to try my hand at a more serious attempt at mixing. I mean, it couldn't possibly get worse, right? Well, that's up to others to decide; personally, I find this one to be significantly better. Doesn't help the fact that it was poorly recorded, but still...
