Thanks for listening! Iron Butterfly's 1968 release of "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" is regarded as one of the first heavy metal songs of that genre. This is a true stereo remix of the single version of the album recording which at over 17 minutes occupies one entire side of the album. The drums being such an integral part of this recording are sadly placed to the extreme right channel in the original single lessening the energy and punch this song deserves. In my true stereo remix, I have moved the drums to the center. I have also separated the toms and placed them further to the left emulating a recording style soon to follow with heavy metal recordings. No pseudo acoustics were used in this remix. It is strictly an isolation de-mixing of the instruments and vocals and a remixing of those elements. Great care was taken not to venture to far from the original recording.

Man, the centered drums doesn't affect the sound in ANY negative way! It creates the perfect balance you strive for and still keeps the original sound and vibe! Thanks!

Thank you, it's my pleasure! Drums should drive out of two speakers, not one! Thanks for listening and commenting!

Fantastic work - all we need now is the full album version...... please, Please, PLEASE - I have been waiting since 1968, when the album was released, for a decent remix of this groundbreaking track. Also I would love to hear an equivalent remix of Vanilla Fudge's "Break Song". Here's hoping. Masterful Work

Thank you, glad you enjoyed this mix! I've only remixed the short version of this song. The full version is just too long. Thanks for listening!
