Title: What's the difference between these two versions of the same song?
Post by: threemilk on 2018-06-24 00:11:05
There is a song called "The World Spins" by Julee Cruise which was played on Twin peaks, and I notice the version on the show is different from the one on the album -- the version on the album sounds slightly flatter and more artificial. Is there any way to discern why this might be the case by listening to the music? Is it because the version on the show was recorded live in studio as opposed to recorded using tracks? Is the TV version less compressed? I was hoping someone more knowledgeable than me about music production might be able to listen and come up with an answer.

TV show version, song starts at 2 mins 10 sec (big spoilers in this clip in case you were planning on watching the show):
