Which song would you say sounds the best production wise? They all sound quite simular but do have slight differences here and there.

One thing I'd like to point out is how, now that everyone has the CD, they can hear there was no "early mix" leaked, and that the CD sounds nearly exactly the same as the M4As. Glad to be able to say I told you so on that one.

I'm liking Vicarious and Jambi, especially the intro to Jambi when the drums kick in. Good stuff...

The songs are the same, but the quality is way better on the CD or the vbr mp3's going around. The M4As (AAC) were encoded at CBR 192kbps (iTunes 4.9), and people have shown that some bad low passing and high passing occurred (and upsampling from an unknown source) that really made those sound like crap.

Rosetta deserves quite a bit of credit on that angle.
