I listened to the Soundcloud version. Lot of work in that song and vocals. I think it gave me a headache though (just joking).

that's funny (and interesting), i figured the soundcloud upload always converted the file to whatever the streaming is..
but i ALWAYS upload a 44.1khz/16 bit wav file 'thinking' it might sound better on the conversion if i let them do the conversion their own way...
 
i typically burn my own mp3's at 320 kbps, and i do it thru WAVELAB, so i get the highest quality i can manage...
 
the 'box' file is a wav upload as well.
 
they were both the same exact file uploaded.
 
 
so if there is soundcloud monkey business going on 'AFTER' the fact, i am unaware of it.

Hum I download both the files I have from BOX 
 
The first one is 46,028 KB and the second is 46.041 KB and looking at them in Soundforge they have very different wave profiles.  The second one has a much louder/compressed look than the first.

that's very interesting, wookie..
 
that must be something that soundcloud does to the file after the fact.
 
i think that the 'box' file is the purest file....
i was only aware of upload (1) moonshine file to box...
maybe when you got to it, an older one was still in there..
 
 
i do master these files after i'm finished mixing,
and the way i work is strictly 'on the fly',
so it's very possible that there would be differences in level,
i'm always playing with mastering schemes.....
 
 
 
either way, i've deleted both of the files now, since they are obsolete after my new mix session this past weekend...
 
 
 
i think the only thing i have left to do on this mix,
is to now decide,
whether i want the guitars and vox bone dry and pure,
or more studio slick with reverb......
