Machina reworked

I've made and scrapped various playlists but I think I have a running order. Generally speaking, I think the Aranea Alba sequencing works pretty well, it just dilutes the atmosphere of the original albums with too many acoustic demos, synth interludes and meandering dirges. Here's my attempt to keep what works for me, ditch what doesn't and add in a few tracks that compliment the flow.

Had to pop some tracks into Logic to adjust volume and the gaps between certain songs. All tracks sourced from MAA with the exception of the first track and Le Deux Machina, which I grabbed off the main M2 album.

Disc 1: Glass

  1. If There Is a God (Full band)
  2. Stand Inside Your Love
  3. I of the Mourning
  4. Crying Tree of Mercury
  5. Slow Dawn
  6. Sacred and Profane
  7. Everlasting Gaze
  8. Glass' Theme
  9. Heavy Metal Machine
  10. Blue Skies Wrought Tears
  11. Pale Scales
  12. Rainy Day Song
  13. Wound
  14. Let Me Give the World to You

Disc 2: June

  1. "Machina, Machina"
  2. Cash Car Star
  3. Imploding Voice
  4. Raindrops and Sunshowers
  5. Glass and the Ghost Children
  6. Real Love
  7. Try, Try, Try
  8. Go
  9. White Spyder (drum machine version)
  10. Speed Kills
  11. Here's To the Atom Dumb (drum machine version)

Disc 3: The Machines of God

  1. If There Is a God (MAA version with Mike Garson)
  2. Dross
  3. Lucky 13
  4. In My Body
  5. Innosense
  6. This Time
  7. Identify
  8. Home
  9. Blue Skies Bring Tears
  10. Le Deux Machina (M2 synth version)
  11. With Every Light
