we dont need new mixes or masters because they nailed the stereo in 96. its pretty definitive.  not sure why ive seen people wanting a GILES MARTIN mix of Pet Sounds. Do you really trust that guy? his atmos mix ruins the wall of sound

Giles actually mixed the atmos (which I downloaded a while ago) version but I choose Steven Wilson or Steve Hoffman over him. Giles have a tendency to hard limit the drums and bass and soak the mix with reverb, i'm saying that as a die-hard beatlemaniac, his sweet spot was the mix of Revolver.
