I'm the guy on YouTube who uploaded three Batman Map sequence tracks, mixed and mastered by yours truly. I just want to answer a few questions that have been circulating around Discord, YouTube, and Reddit.

1. Is that all you mixed and mastered?

Actually, no! There are three more songs. Let me list them down:

• Batman Map - I found out there was a guitar solo buried deep underneath the original demo. I raised it, listened to it for hours, and re-recorded it for its full glory.
• Falling Down (Stripped) - My own acoustic work. I noticed that for BATMAN MAP (Track 9), the second part is Gerard and Ray seemingly trying to work in a different version of Falling Down, and I did my own thing on it too. I recorded the acoustic guitar, added a MIDI violin, de-echoed and de-reverberated the vocals... let's just say that I'm most proud of this one.
• High Hopes (Stripped) - Also, my own acoustic work. The idea came from the 20-minute "Sketches for Batman Map DEMO" audio, in which the last part has Gerard and Ray singing a different rendition of another song; but this time with High Hopes. I decided to make it its own thing too.

2. Can you upload them to the YouTube channel?

Unfortunately, not. Warner REALLY loves to strike down videos that have ANY official (or at least polished) version of TPK tracks, and I cannot risk the stripped-down tracks especially that even if it's only the lead vocals, they still have potential to get struck down because it's still Gerard's voice.

As for the Batman Map DEMO, I also can't upload it. It's the only track out of the sessions that has any Content ID/Web Sheriff stain on it.

3. Can you give it to me?

You know where to go. Plus, there are several people who have it, so find them if you're able to. I don't think I'll be able to reply to you either way, I'm only on Reddit for the news haha

Thanks for all the support on my mix, by the way. It really means a lot!
