I'll say it again. If we got this and all the rest of these tracks released in lossless FLAC, I'd pay extreme money for it.
This guy right here is legendary audio engineer. Period. One of the all time greats.
One of my all time favs and my cat just broke one of my monitors! :( Thanks so much for this, and +1 for Dwayne.
We miss you, Dwayne. Thanks for this lovely tribute, Ken. You are loved. ❤
Hearing a Too Dark Park track so clean and crisp is surreal.
Happy Birthday, Ken :) I hope you have a wonderful day!

Thanks for that @gwaratron, I had a REALLY nice BDay 😆🤟🏻 Made a great wish too ✅🕯 I hope this summer is treating you well my friend, please stay safe 🙏 -hw
I can't help but think, as I watched SP's final concert in T.O., what could've been had Dwayne never left us? His contributions in the studio AND in the shows is greatly missed. Thanks again, Mr. Marshall :)

No disrespect meant to Ogre, Key or anyone else, but....Dwayne really was the man with the magic touch. I don't think I've ever disliked a project he was involved with.

@@EldeecueI dunno. I think it was more that Cevin and Dwayne had excellent chemistry together. They just complemented each other in ways that led to songs that haven't really been there since his death. All of my favorite albums are the ones he was present for.
Even on the lousy speakers of a mobile phone, I hear this is an excellent restoration! ❤
Dig it! Excellent restoration from my favorite TDP track. Thank you, Ken!
Thanks ken for doing this
It's crazy just how long I have absolutely adored this track.
so awesome !! wow xx
Every time I listen to Too Dark Park it takes me back to the days when my life was filled with higher stakes and I felt all of it. This was the soundtrack to it. Right fucking here. This music is a gift. Thank you for it.
Every track from this album gives me chills.
What a treat to behold, thank you Ken.
This is really quite good, and the vocals are really served up nicely.
Oh hell yes sir. This is so giant man. Wow. Shredding the system! As always. Hands of fire AND gold. :)
phenomenal remaster. brilliant.
Ya left me hangin bruh. You took out the one snare hit at 2:34 that has that rimshot type sound with a gate on it. Now I look like a dork when I air play the drums.

That felt "Strange".
Nicely timed release - I already have my good headphones on. I love how much background detail I can hear in these new mixes. Amazing work. Thank you so much!
Very beautiful (sound and equipment)!
You should officially release these. They are amazing... thanks for sharing.

I don't think he can. He has a special agreement to make these and post them on KZread, but I don't think he can release them as an album. Besides, he's a musician, not a distributor. But I would love to get an official remaster of TDP with Ken at the helm.
My favorite track from Too Dark Park! Sounds great!
THANK YOU KEN!!!
OMG ... so fucking GOOD!!
Geez another amazing one. But I have to say again that last version of Rodent, that is so amazing the band should strongly consider releasing it, I would absolutely buy a 12” of it, and if it had other banger restorations like this and cullorblind even better
the most usefull phorm of wizdumb.
Always nerve-racking to hear a modified version of a favorite song but this one certainly held up. Excellent work Hiwatt! Loved it
Afff man, now you teleport me back to high school, what an awesome album! I remember when cd went out and I heard it for the first time, it was instant mind blowing for me... Btw, what's the next on the menu - tormentor? Anyway, good work Ken, keep them coming!
Wonderful.
Dude this is slick! 😈
Great sound, awesome light show ;)
Everything about this video, from the tape recorder to the entirety of the mixing blow me away. Just this morning I was lamenting to myself that folks don’t really use digital the the fullest. Indeed didn’t even when CD was popular. The openness and staging are amazing thank you. It is a whole new experience.
Great restoration of my all-time fave Skinny Puppy track. 🖤
This and Natures Revenge are my favorite SP songs.
🖤🖤🖤 the music and studio sexiness
KILLER :)
I would love for you to re imagine all the album with today’s Tech…❤
Wow, NICE!!! And of all days... on my birthday! Thanks for the present Ken!!!! :) RIP Dwayne, you are sorely missed.

Happy birthday, fellow rivethead!
Awesome. Love the RevoX
Amazing Setup Ken, but the star there is the Revox A77 without a doubt .🙌I love that before you stop it directly, you reverse it so it doesn't run over the tape, that tip is from an expert Revox user. Hug Fer
Yooo. Respect ❤️Catching this on an easy WWE gig haha. So stoked I can tune in! Sounds righteous as hell. Stay awesome n bless up, Ken. 🤙 Edit to add - great fuckin ride on that one, man. Solid groove, great mix. Love the reel 2 reel too!!
Yet another track for my Skinny Puppy FLAC archive! Thanks Ken! It sounds fantastic!

Thank you man, I love hearing these.
Favourite song of Too dark park 👌
Exquisite stuff. Wonderful restauration. Hoping SP re-release this incredible album. Thank you sooooo much.
I love Too Dark Park and Last Rights so, so much... ❤ Thanks so much for your work on these albums, Ken! Very nice work on the restoration!
This is such a great mix! Thanx Mr. Marshall!
I listen to this a lot in the early 2000s while playing video games...
Pure adrenaline listening to this! Ken, your hands are golden.
Awesome work for one of my favorite SP tracks. I live discovering some of the buried aspects of the original mix, like the guitar work at the end (under "fleas attach themselves consuming"... ). There are definitely places where the vocals feel a bit too quiet and the bass drum too loud. Some of it may be the bass-heavy headphones I'm listening through, but just my take. Regardless, I love that you're doing this. It definitely triggers the nostalgia centers in my brain!
Imagining all of Too Dark Park with this treatment is short circuiting my brain.
Doood 🔥🤙🏼🔥
This amazing, great clean up job you did
You da man, Ken! 🖤😍
Great work!!!!
Big, wide, pristine-sounding work. Astonishing stuff, as always! I do want to say that it's either the verse guitar being turned up, or it's Ogre being turned down more than my ears want it to be. But that's your call.
I'm afraid that all that is left for us fans after their final tour, is you restoring their entire output and who knows what else is lurking in the vault... thanks, sir!
So choice!
Wow! I am in awe.
And no brake squeal✌️
one of my fav SP tracks
Varigate 8 plus Votltage Block, such a great combo!
OMG! Amazing!
Would you uhhh perhaps send a G Drive link with the FLAC? I'd fucking kill for a restored TDP.
Restored? From tapes and CDs to concerts, I've never heard it like that. I guess I never really heard it until now.
If you have permission from cEvin, you should do Amnesia 2.0!!

Hail furries! This is our song
Another great tune resurrected!
My. Fucking. God. This is incredible. My favorite Puppy song is somehow a little bit better. My jaw is on the floor. Just wow.
nice.
oh my oh my
Oh my god!
This is a real longshot, but perhaps a knowledgeable fan, or Ken will see this...and apologies in advance for the non-sequitur: Does anyone know the source of the quote at about 3:25 of the Brap Track Deadlines? I have literally checked all the old databases of quote sources, asked the SP subreddit, and ran the quote through every iteration I know of in multiple search engines....nothing.
Hey ken whats youre opinion on expert sleepers as a cv interface...
yes yes yes yes yes
Too good 🤤🤤🤤
My favourite track from my favourite Skinny Puppy album! Did cEvin play acoustic drums on the original recording or was it all sampled drums and programming?
@jasonjohnson1404
Жыл бұрын
cEvin has a great three hour youtube video over the making of TDP where he goes into all of that. As I recall, the overwhelming majority of all of it is samples. Definitely on Grave Wisdom the drums are all samples, but I'm not sure how much was triggered live vs programmed. I think it is both.
fucking awesome
⚡⚡⚡
Excellent job, my friend. Can we get a tratment for "Assimilate"? (First SP track I ever heard; I was instantly hooked)
Please make Dead Lines again %)
Hi Ken. Do you know if Too Dark Park will ever get a re-release on vinyl? Been waiting and waiting for that. Thanks.
X'slent!
🐕!
absolutely loved the Rodent remix, but I'm not such a fan of this one. The kick lacks presence and the snare sounds nothing like the original. I'm too attached to the originally samples.
U Used Urorack,2???
Needs more cowbell. 😛
Noice! Shore Lined Poison 2.0?
So he's using the official multitrack?

Ken digitized some of the OG studio tapes for remixes back in the day. So yeah, it's the multitracks.
Sounds awesome. Now do one for VX Gas Attack. It sounded hard on the tour
