If you like Sufjan Stevens, I bet you will love this recording. Touring as the "Majesty Songbird" and the "Magical Butterfly Brigade" this show featured a 14 piece band with string and horn sections, and included the new masterpiece Majest Snowbird. I don't know of any other soundboard recordings or matrixes out there, so enjoy!


Original thir13en iNfo:

Again, much thanks to YLTfan for his original sources.

I spent considerable amount of time playing around with this show, which was mired in a heavy midrange orgy. It had to go a different route than usual, in which I mastered the SBD seperatley before even attempting to blend it with the AUD. And the EQ'ing was far more drastic than I generally care to apply. We're still trying to find a culprit, I'm a little suspicious of the iRiver, but not totally sure. It sounds pretty damn good considering where the sources started.

Anyways, weird artist, weird "songs". It struck me as ambitiously overdramatic. But you know, a couple of songs did start to grow on me near the 8th or 9th time through. Sometimes a little repetition goes a long way.
