1. As I understand it, "to even up" means to make things equal, in most cases. In the sense of "he evened up the score".
2. Would it be legitimate to alternatively interpret it as "to make the score even higher" too though? In the sense of "he even upped the score".

Because to me, grammatically both interpretations appear equally correct, while the first seems to be the common one

Edit: I don't understand why this is getting downvoted. Is this not a good fit for the sub? Did I do something wrong?

I’m especially interested in hearing from people who’ve released multiple albums and have had to think about this potential trade off more than once

Do you ever make a song objectively worse on its own because it serves the album better? Or do you always try to make every track the strongest version of itself, even if that hurts the overall flow or cohesion?

For example, maybe a song would be more impactful with a huge ending but you hold back because the next track needs that emotional space. Or you leave a track a bit rougher because it fits the album’s aestetic better

How has your thinking on this changed over the years? Any examples from your own albums?

edit:
and how about an EP, is it different there?

A talk by Joscha Bach, recorded live at MC0001.

MC0001 is a conference dedicated to investigating how artificial conscious systems could be constructed under a computational paradigm, and what it would mean to succeed.

40m, doing occasional 24h water fasts, adding electrolytes to my water. I never had a diagnosis for bladder infection, so I can only guess that that's what it is. It doesn't happen every time, about every second time I'd say

Does anyone have an explanation or experience with this?

I'm not saying this is personally my favorite louis story, that's just what the uploader titled it (although it might be)

recently got into raw french butters, which is why the consistency of Kerrygold now feels a bit plastic-y to me. But still love the taste of Kerrygold, any recommendations?
