    Just like House of Balloons from earlier this year:



    Official merch released too, kinda pricey

    which is why now that the OG House of Balloons is available on Spotify, I might never listen to the Trilogy version again, except to skip to track 10, Twenty Eight

    I love the vintage sound to Wicked Games, and Coming Down is my other favorite song on the mixtape which leaves out the anime sample on the remastered version

    You have to clear samples for streaming (which can be expensive)

    The original mixtapes do have significant differences in comparison to the Trilogy that is already streaming

    happy to see this, but i never understood why artists don't immediately retroactively release their full discography on streaming services...seems like they're leaving streams/revenue on the table(?). no need to wait for an anniversary.
