for all but the last 5 minutes of side A, the left channel only has the tanpura, and is therefore extremely quiet. On the other hand, the Rudra Veena is only in the right channel. Extreme stereo separation. So I swapped out the left channel and replaced with the right, except for the last 5 minutes. At that point, the drums finally enter, on the left channel, evening out the mix. Thus, an edit.

in other words, I didn't like the original mix, it's lopsided, so I did a kinda of quick fix. hope you enjoy

"Rudra veena is a large plucked string instrument used in Hindustani Music, especially dhrupad. It is one of the major types of veena played in Indian classical music, notable for its deep bass resonance."

↳ Song: "'Love, Emily' - Side A" by "Kathy Acker with Nox"
"Originally released in a long sold-out edition of 50 cassette tapes, 'Love, Emily (Acte 3)' was the third and final album of Michel Henritzi’s industrial label AKT Production. Recorded in a Paris studio in 1987, this 25-minute collage of spoken word and noise saturations intersects two radical voices from literature and experimental music of the time: American author Kathy Acker reading excerpts from her book 'My Death, My Life by Pier Paolo Pasolini', and Nox, mainstay of the French noise and industrial scene."
