HEVYDEVY FORUMS

I would also like to hear this, if someone could be so kind.

encouraged by the recent interest in this, i've just put together what i'd call the "definitive" version, but that's actually a bit too egotistical really XD especially since i haven't heard the original edit. either way, i managed to crop the songs away from one another so there's hardly any overlap whatsoever, then re-sequence everything with some killer, potentially Dev-worthy segues between each song. i don't mean to be clandestine, but since this is hardly official and is probably frownworthy from the hevydevy crew, PM me if you're interested in hearing.

Thank you very much for the link you PM'ed me, your version sounds great! I love the transitions at the beginning of Christeen and OM, very clever and imaginative. Those make much more sense than the ones on "my" version. Thumbs up!

Awesome, awesome job! Sounds great! The segues work really well. Thanks for this!

I have to agree. It flows so much better, and the songs that were removed, as much as they love them, stand better as songs on their own than Processional, so it totally makes sense.

Thanks to those un-named benefactors who did the mixes. I was having trouble getting into this album before, and didn't think re-arranging would make a difference. It does, alot. Completely different experience.

I LOVE Ants, and think Bad Devil is a great song as well. I also happen to adore Sit in the Mountain. Add in Noisy Bubbles and you have a crazy fun EP to accompany the monolithic beauty of this new mix. It almost makes me sad to think that the rest of the world isn't experiencing the album in this way.

I used to dislike Christeen, frankly. But now it is like emerging from a dream to go on a motorcycle ride with the wind in your face. It really takes it place along Life and Gaia and other Devy poppy tunes.

I think this gives everyone a better idea. Apologies about the sound quality, that's Movie Maker + youtube compression for you. Anyway, I also included a bit of fun at the end where I remixed the "remaining" Infinity tracks together as well.

Thanks! It really amazes me how different this album would have been. I love Infinity the way it is, but it is interesting to listen to it the way Dev originally visioned the album.

Sorry to conjure this thread back from the dead, but I was just thinking about this alternate version and I seem to have lost my copies of it...would anyone be kind enough to PM me with a link to reacquire them?
