The Beatles Get Funky With 'THE WORD', Natural Vocals In New Remix​

Sonically, Rubber Soul is one of The Beatles' stronger albums, yet unfortunately, it's also one of the most poorly mixed as this track has absolutely nothing in the center!

In 1965, George Martin originally mixed much of the album with the vocals panned to one side in an effort to create a better-sounding mono version from a stereo "fold down."

With this remix, britt2001b has aimed to fix that by moving the vocals from the left channel and spreading them across the stereo field, creating more balance and depth.
Now, you'll hear John's vocal from the center, Paul's vocal on the right, and George's vocal on the left. Interestingly, to my ear, it sometimes sounds like Paul or John may have contributed to parts of George's vocal line as well.

Another major change is the removal of the wide-panned double-tracking on the vocals. What remains are the raw, unprocessed voices of John, Paul, and George, which I feel gives the recording a natural, organic feel—reminiscent of a Bob Dylan recording, who heavily influenced The Beatles during this period.

In addition, britt2001b says he has centered the drums and bass, which were originally split across opposite sides of the stereo field. Bringing them to the center creates a stronger balance and a solid foundation that drives the song with more energy. The piano, guitars, and harmonium remain in their original positions—the only major elements left unchanged.

Grab ur head-phones and enjoy !

The Beatles I'M LOOKING THROUGH YOU 2025 Remix New Vocal Depth, Warm Acoustic Guitar, Snare Restored​

 

[Vince Evert]

Here’s britt2001b remix of “Run For Your Life,” the closing track on Rubber Soul — and the very first one recorded for the album on October 12, 1965.
This remix restores vocal balance, separates guitars, and gives the song a center it never had in 1965.

Real Love 2025 (From original 1995 audio)​

Please note: This is NOT the official 2025 remix that we'll be seeing/hearing on anthology 4 later this year (has not yet been posted on the official channel).

Some fan has done a real splendid job of bringing forward and sharpen John Lennon's vocals from the 1996 mix.

Very commendable!

Deserves a listen




Original 1996 mix now:

Great work indeed , removing the annoying and unnecessary reverb





"That Means a Lot" - recorded 1965 when the fab-four was recording BEATLES FOR SALE album, but they chose not to release it (they gave the song to singer PJ Proby who recorded it).

It would later see the light of day (heavily reverbed) on Anthology volume 2 compilation, in 1996 !

This is it over here:

Leave My Kitten Alone - Isolated Tracks (Deconstruction)

Drums appear at the beginning, Bass at 3 min, Guitars at 6 min, Piano (Paul overdub) at 9 min, and Vocal (John) at 12 min.


"Leave My Kitten Alone" - is a song originally done by Little Willie John.
The Beatles recorded it during the sessions for "Beatles for Sale" but chose not to include it on the album. It appears on Anthology 1. Fans who dislike "Mister Moonlight" question why this song was not included instead.

Very impressed with Britt2001b's visions regarding most of his Pseudo remixes Beatles work.

Quote britt2001b "Sometimes the smallest changes make the biggest difference. This remix is the most subtle I’ve ever made, and I think you’ll hear why.

When John Lennon wrote and recorded “You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away” with The Beatles in 1965, he was heavily inspired by Bob Dylan.
As the lead vocalist, it’s easy to hear him emulating Dylan’s voice. But on the original mix, Lennon’s vocal was drenched in reverb—a production choice that was common in Pop music at the time, but not in early folk recordings. Dylan’s early records, along with much of the folk scene, leaned toward intimacy: a dry, unembellished sound with minimal processing. That contrast got me wondering—what if “You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away” had been mixed more like a Dylan track from that era? With that in mind, the only change I made in this remix was to reduce the reverb on John’s vocal. The reverb is still present, but far more subtle. Instead of sounding like he’s performing in a vast concert hall, it’s more like he’s singing in a small club—closer, more personal, and more in line with the folk aesthetic.Aside from that adjustment, nothing else was changed. The challenge was to preserve the feel of the original instrumental mix after first de-mixing the track.For context, The Beatles recorded “You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away” on February 18, 1965, completing nine takes just days before flying to the Bahamas to begin filming their movie Help!—where the song also appears. The video for this remix is drawn entirely from their performance in the film. The flute part at the end was played by Johnnie Scott, who was portrayed on-screen by someone else. This marked the first time The Beatles brought in an outside musician (other than producer George Martin) to embellish a track. There were a few earlier exceptions: studio engineer Norman Smith added bongos to “A Hard Day’s Night,” and session drummer Andy White played on “Love Me Do” and “P.S. I Love You.”I hope you enjoy hearing this version as much as I enjoyed creating it. Thanks, as always, for listening!

The Beatles – “IT'S ONLY LOVE” | A Fresh, Balanced & Intimate 2025 Remix​

The Beatles recorded “It’s Only Love” in six takes at EMI Studio Two on the afternoon of June 15, 1965, toward the end of the Help! sessions. These were relatively straightforward recordings, culminating in take six, which received an overdub of George’s heavily tremolo-treated guitar. Take five was abandoned after a rare, uncharacteristic mistake by Ringo, who can be heard on the tape apologizing to John. Notably, this recording features five guitars: John’s acoustic guitar played high up the neck (giving it an almost ukulele-like tone), an acoustic twelve-string, an electric guitar, George’s twelve-string electric Rickenbacker, and one of George’s Gretsch guitars. This arrangement highlights the band’s growing interest in layering textures, even within more straightforward compositions.

What a wonderful addition The Beatles’ recording of “It’s Only Love” made to Rubber Soul—specifically the American version of the album. Its acoustic character blends beautifully with the overall mood and introspective feel of the record. After flipping the album over to side two, the delicate acoustic guitar introduction continues that atmosphere seamlessly, immediately drawing the listener back in. As the opening track on side two, “It’s Only Love” plays a key role in sustaining both the mood and momentum of the album. British fans, however, encountered this song much earlier, as it originally appeared on the Help! album and was not included on the UK version of Rubber Soul.

This remix presents a fresh, more modern balance by creating a clear focal point and anchor that the original stereo mix does not provide. To achieve this, the bass and drums—originally placed in the left channel—have been moved to the center. The tambourine has been shifted from the right channel to just left of center, while the acoustic guitars are now spread across the stereo soundstage rather than being confined primarily to the left channel.
George’s guitar embellishments, which originally appeared only in the right channel, are now brought into the center, completing the new balance and helping redefine one of the most underrated tracks in The Beatles’ catalog.Perhaps the most impactful change in this remix is the removal of John’s double-tracked vocal, which originally appears only during the chorus.
Eliminating this element results in a more intimate presentation, one that better suits the acoustic nature and emotional nuance of the song.
