If You Want Me To Stay (James' Mix) 12 March
yes it was technically wednesday but Eddie stayed even longer

** Nobody** represents the spectral direction I hope we can achieve with all the mixes.  The top end seems just about right to me, the bottom is tight and punchy albeit perhaps a little shy of the warmth I'd like to get.  The imaging is a bit odd (it was after 2am!) so I did some mid-side processing to fix those two issues.  I'd love and feedback...
