The heartbeat of The Beatles' 1966 release "She Said She Said" lies in the interplay between the bass, kick drum, and two electrifying guitars. While the song's high energy is unmistakable, some of that energy was lost in the 2022 Giles Martin remix, despite the enhanced clarity it brought. My goal with this remix was to resurrect that lost energy while staying true to the spirit of the original.

In this remix, you’ll immediately notice the punch that drives the song from beginning to end, complemented by the separation of the two electric guitars. The 2022 remix positioned both guitars in the right channel for much of the track, but in this version, the drums and bass now sit squarely in the center, creating a synergy between the two guitars. This approach mirrors a stereo mixing style that became common in rock recordings a few years after the song’s release.

Another key change is the removal of the ADT (artificial double tracking) effect on John Lennon’s vocal. I believe this enhances the vitality of the recording, as ADT—widely used at the time of the original release—was often overapplied and later fell out of favor. The 2022 remix retains the double-tracked vocal, but I opted for a more natural presentation here.

Additionally, George Harrison’s backing vocal has been better separated from John’s lead vocal and positioned closer to the outer edges of the soundstage. This adds clarity and depth to their harmonies.

No new elements were added to this remix. Every instrument and vocal stem comes from the original recording, carefully de-mixed and remixed to create this new presentation.

Thank you for listening! I hope you enjoy this revitalized version of a classic Beatles track.
