SMILE! :D

~ Release group by Porter Robinson

Annotation

FIXME (2024-08-17):

There appears to be a new version of the final track that has a fade-out, removing the final drum section. This version is now on Spotify, as well as the vinyl digital download released yesterday.

The vinyl digital download also has some minor mix changes throughout the album (described in detail in the annotation); idk if they are present on spotify etc as well

Oh! So Porter Robinson just revealed the lack of fadeout was a mistake in the mastering process which was too late to fix, and the drum stem at the end is random. He didn't know why it took so long for the fix to propagate (iirc). See the Everything to Me work for details / source

So yeah we should add a new release for the fixed version that is now on digital platforms. Release date is probably around 2024-08-16?
