Because, I'm insane. The Ianuarius EP of 2023 Jamuaries has a second set of the exactly the same songs (except for a unique one on each) but handled by a different mastering engineer. This time, a straight digital master from our friend, RDT. All the clarity that I'd hoped for he achieved on the first shot.

RDT is available to master your track on Fiverr. While he gets rolling in this service, his rates are basically nil and the results sparkling. If you're interested in getting your track mastered beautifully for the price of a venti latte, here ya go :

The plan was to get one done from all corners of the mastering world. A brick n mortar pro, a DAW super-ninja, and AI services. Except for the AI ones, they aren't meant to be compared with each other. These are different approaches and both humans exceeded my expectations. I have been making new AI masters based on the two provided by humans, using one as the source file and the other as the reference to mimic the dynamics/color. The consensus appears to be that these are the best of them. But I can't post them because I already feel crazy for doing two masters. xD If you'd like to hear these, please reach out to me personally.

Maybe by now, some of you are as burnt on these tunes as I am but the idea here, and for all of these is just to learn, familiarize myself with the process and connect w ppl Thanks for putting up with it. :)
