Hello family, friends, and Beach Boys fans alike!
This is the culmination of three years worth of mixing, re-mixing, and arranging. I give you my interpretation of the long-lost Smile album!
I own nothing, all rights go to UMG, EMI, and Capitol Records

This is really good. Around 30 years ago, I used to trade bootleg audio tapes of outtakes of the unfinished smile album. I used to exchange them with other fanatics. I would copy their tape and they would copy mine and so on. The tapes included bits and pieces of the songs, sometimes 10 different versions of the same song on one tape. This mix and collection is outstanding. We would have lost our minds with this.
You are the man Brian Wilson needed in 1967...

Amazing music…gee whiz!?!
En ces temps de désarroi, de douleurs, de violences il nous reste cet album qui nous donne l'occasion de découvrir un monde sonore joyeux. Cela réchauffe le cœur
Je suis d'accord. Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire!
I always thought Surfs Up belonged here - thanks for making this collection/mix/arrangement!
Teenage symphony to God, indeed! Not only is this beautiful and complex, but -- more than any other manifestation of SMiLE I've heard -- this mix delivers on the playfulness, the sense of humor that Brian Wilson promised would be part of Dumb Angel.
The dramatic and unexpected tape cuts give me the same feeling as the single version of Good Vibrations. This mix perfectly captures the joyful spontaneity of the Smile project.
Where are the songs about surfin’, the beach, fast cars, girls & sunshine??? - Mike Love
I've been listening to some smile mixes. At first I was skeptical of yours because I was extremely tied to other Heroes and Villains versions. But then every time I caught myself saying "Hey! He did that!" and "Wow this fits in here smoothly". Not a great connoisseur of remixes and mixing in general, but for the SMiLE narrative, and musically speaking, I believe this is very, very, well mixed and well thought-of. Really a symphony. Congrats, guy. It would've blown minds back in 1967, and still I think that, as Brian himself said, people wouldn't have understood it. If that is any close enough to what Brian imagined, then I can only say he is not from this world lmao. Pretty fantastic!
Thanks! You should definitely give the new "Heroes And Villains" mix a listen!
@@JackSProductions98 I will! Yours is great. I got another perception of it that sounds more accurate and less "single-ish" than the SMiLE Sessions. Pretty good!
This is magnificent. I've got chills. It would be really cool if Brian could hear this - I'm willing to bet he'd approve. Bravo!!!!
Brian?
@@antlergxrl He's still alive dude
@@antlergxrl You're thinking of Dennis, the one that drowned.
@@bskinny9009 or Carl
Are y'all really that slow??? It's fan made. NOT made by Brian so it's likely that Brian Wilson has not heard this particular fan made re mix. The end.
Really fantastic job dude, I really love what you’ve done with surfs up and heroes and villains, and the added orchestrated parts. Very nice.
Thanks! Be sure to tune in this summer for an updated mix plus so much more!!
One of the best smile mixes I've ever heard. It's so narratively cohesive, and you use Brian's choice of old American musical vignettes masterfully. It's a natural evolution of what I imagine Brian and Van dyke were going for.
Thank you so much! Wait til you hear the new mix I have planned
@@JackSProductions98The intro was brilliant, and the our prayer/fire intro served the purpose of letting Gee breath as its own track. Those flourishes that you added to Gee emphasized the pop revolution that Brian was heralding! "Gee" isn't some nice segue to heroes and villains. Its Dorothy taking her first steps into Technicolor!
I'm excited to hear your upcoming work.
@@TestTheCoals69 You're too kind! I'm just worried bc my new mix kinda reshuffles most of the album and I'm worried bc lots of people are saying so many good things about this mix, but that was about five mixes ago!
@@JackSProductions98 don't sweat it, that's basically par for the course for every smile mix. You take what you like, innovate, release, repeat. Dae lims is probably the most "popular" beach boys fanmixer and he has a ton of smile mixes that people have different preferences for.
@@TestTheCoals69 That means a lot! I'd love to hear what you think of my newest mixes of "Heroes and Villains" and "Wind Chimes" which are now on my page!
While I think I still prefer the general arrangement of Wonderful-Surf's Up, I absolutely adore how you did Gee and Heroes and Villains. There are some incredible segments that were cut that I think absolutely fit well here, and you did an amazing job at mixing these!
i love the edits that capture the humor of the piece
Ay nice to see it back, let's hope it stays.
This is an awesome interpretation. I love that there is so much raw material to work with that any talented mixer can make their own personal masterpiece with it.
I've heard so many fan albums...this is one of the best! BRAVO! Liked and subbed.
I loved that you strayed away from the usual suspects that I can find on a SMiLE mix. Kudos to you!
As a long-time Beach Boy fan, I believe that this was really well done. I like a reintroduction of the Heroes and Villains theme (which I think was was Brian originally intended). At first it put me off (not hearing the entire song), but then I really liked it, being reprised again and again. Great mixing job with (obviously first rate material to begin with!
The sound quality is marvelous! Thanks!
Incredible, really one of the best mixes I've heard of Smile!
it's always so interesting to see different views on what parts should be used where on the album even down to the tracklisting being entirely switched around along with the motifs and melodies we hear throughout the album. the motif of Heroes and Villians was never so blatant to me but with this seamless quilted variation of SMiLE it's been very pleasantly displayed.
Holy shit, I’m honestly blown away. I’ve listened to your previous mixes and thoroughly enjoyed them, but this is an entirely different level, the extra orchestration and vocals are simply incredible. This is without a doubt my new favorite mix!
Thank you so much!!!!
Hey pssst I'm putting out a newly updated mix this summer 👀
@@JackSProductions98 Bro im gonna be honest. I don’t know how you can improve this further but I’ll be interested in hearing it!
Hey Jack, did you ever end up putting the updated mix out?@@JackSProductions98
@@clarkeeclark No, but you're the first to hear this! I haven't made progress on it because of some badddd mental health crap this past summer, and then I got really busy this fall (I'm still in college), and now, I've joined the party and started dabbling in AI. Nothing mind-bendingly innovative, just creating brand new stereo mixes after using AI to separate some things like vocals, bass, drums, etc. So the newest mix, I'd like to get out before the holiday season, and it will have AI generated vocals, with some lifted from Dae Lims' and Mike LeRoy's mixes (sparsely, I'm not relying on their mixes for more than a few sections of a few songs), and AI enhanced instrumental tracks, with new stereo mixes by yours truly!
about halfway through this right now, and am wowed by your
ability to segue the proper segments together in a new and
proper way. very well done. you got my sub.
Thank you so much! if you liked that, you should check out my new mixes of Heroes And Villains and Wind Chimes!
Amazing mix! Sorry that you have to put up with the copyright struggle!
Absolutely beautiful. Everything is mixed perfectly!
Thanks! I'm getting an updated mix out this summer!
Unreal Heroes and Villains..............unbelevable!
So attentive and masterful..........I've loved Smile for 30 years....This is brilliant.
The "Whalalulei, wahalalula" part 10 out of 10!
This is absolutely BRILLIANT!!!
This is brilliant!
Best mix yet!
Very well done!
Jeez man.. how did you gain full access to Brian’s head??? 🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥!!!!! Best version I’ve ever heard. I bet this really is what he wanted. You are amazing man. I’m blown away.
I'm really loving this. Dae Lims did a great AI mix of this, too. You should hear their harmonies on "I Wanna Be Around".

Nice work! Really enjoyed it. Different and interesting.
Thanks! Be sure to give my new mixes of "Heroes And Villains" and "Wind Chimes" a listen!
Great job!
Wow!! I'm only 3 minutes in and I'm already blown away. The Our Prayer/Fire intro into Gee was absolutely stunning. The Heroes and Villains mix is gorgeous... Well done m8!!
I'm back after listening to it twice. This is truly outstanding! I think this puts "The Smile Sessions" version to absolute shame. As much as I love and adore the "Brian Wilson Presents Smile" release, I think this is my favorite version. Incredible job and thank you!
Nice!
Truly amazing! Very creative sequencing. Could you share any insight on your reasoning behind some of the song shuffling?
absolutely amazing!! you should be incredibly proud
Thank you so much! I'm even prouder of the updated version!!!
THERES AN UPDATED VERSION AND I DIDNT KNOW ABOUT IT DAMMIT
@@JackSProductions98
where is it please i cant find it in your videos
@@sweetcath99 It's not finished or uploaded yet!
uuuu intriguing, you've got me hooked. hurry up jack@@JackSProductions98
You did it
This version stands alone in its greatness. Love you Beatles, but take some lessons!
1:07 That sudden sharp whistle sound scared the hell out of my dog
😆
is there a version SMiLE that has both, “Healthy, wealthy and wise…” _and,_ “Healthy, wealthy, and often wise…” from Heroes & Villains ?
This album reminds me of the show Does humor belong in music by Frank Zappa. Brian moves intelligently from one style to another. This kind of musical succession is very lively. It's like a strip cartoon in music....
Bravo
"Smile" is like the Beach Boys' "Life of Pablo". Call it "The Life of Brian".
Oh, wait...
oh!
it's cool
thanks
this is great - it'd be nice if you could post a flac somewhere, or timestamp the video with the individual songs?
Huh, is it just me or is Roll Plymouth Rock pitched a little high? Enjoying the creativity of the arrangements though!
At 0:00, I thought it was gonna cut to Stephen Toast in the Soho recording studios
Download available?
hey man do u think you could provide the flax’s for this id love to add this to itunes
Gorgeous. 👉. 💗💗💗
😘
😁
This mix is absolutely incredible, I love it! Might actually be my favorite, it all flows incredibly well and it's not too long either. It's perfect!
Anyway, sorry for asking, do you have the sources or links for the rain & thunder sound effects + bells used at 30:41? and the waves crashing 36:52 would be wonderful to have as well!
It's just that those sound effects work fantastically, I would love to use them in my own mixes and try experimenting even further. Anyway, looking forward to other mixes from you in the future!
Hey thanks! I don't remember what specific sfx I used, but I'm sure if you search for it on UA-cam, you'll be able to find it!
Keep your eyes peeled for my updated mix this upcoming month!
@@JackSProductions98 Alright, thanks for answering, looking forward to it for sure!
@@JackSProductions98 Also, one more question: I would LOVE to listen to your old mix again, the one released just before this version! Not that it's better than this one, it's just that mix was the first version of Smile I ever listened to, so it's a bit nostalgic for me. I love the old tracklisting with the "Our Prayer" / "Wonderful" intro, the transitions (like into Vega-Tables and Cabin Essence), the mix of "The Elements" (which is still my favorite) and so on. If you could send me the link (if it's on an unlisted UA-cam video, drive, or something else) that would make my day! Cheers!
@@leowilson67 If I can find it! On my computer, that was twelve mixes ago hahaha
@@JackSProductions98 Find anything? :D
Does anyone else hear early Genesis in Wonderful?
Any link to download this??
This is fucking amazing. Google Drive link? 🤞
What is the sound effect and filter you used for Gee? I love what you did with that, and I want to apply it to my own SMiLE mix.
Oh, I absolutely love that part. I believe it's the sound of a pianola. It's taken from Van dyke Parks' "Donovans colours" after he quit Smile. Unless you mean the radio sound effect then I'm not much help there.
@@TestTheCoals69 thank you so much! I knew where it was from, but couldn't think of what the sound itself is called.
As for the radio filter, I already have that covered
I am so sorry I never got back to you! So as @TestTheCoals69 responded, I used the beginning sound effects to "Donovan's Colours" from Van Dyke Parks' amazing "Song Cycle" album from 1967. I want my mix to have a bit of Van Dyke's influence. The little "coin" sound effect was taken from "Toot, Whistle, Plunk, and Boom," a VERY obscure 1953 Disney short. I cannot properly describe WHY I felt like it needed to be included, but that film, like Smile, encapsulates a love for dissecting music, especially with this cartoonish medium that Brian wanted to try and capture with "Smile." If that made ANY SENSE WHATSOEVER, COOL.
Does anyone know the translation to the Hawaiian lyrics at the end of Plymouth Rock?
There's a lot of interpretations because it's not necessarily pronounced in a way that lines up with real Hawaiian words, but a common interpretation is a broken version of "Thank you, thank you very much, it's too late"
Hey, now that "Phase One" of the project is complete, any hints as to what "Phase Two" may be?
Brian Wilson & the Case of the Queso Shits (Quadrophonic 320kbps Mix)
Damn i was gonna say phase 2 is arranging sheet music, but that sounds much cooler
@@JackSProductions98 Was also gonna ask, where does side one end and side two begin?
Side Two begins with Cabinessence!
@@JackSProductions98 if you arrange sheet music for smile I will kiss you
Curious what's going on at about 30:55, the backing strings on Child Is The Father. Is that from original Sessions material? Sounds amazing but I don't think I've ever heard it before (admittedly not thoroughly familiar with the cut sessions stuff)
I made em myself!
@@JackSProductions98Cool! They sound fantastic 👍🏻
Really great mix! I think my favorite part was how The Elements melted into Surf’s Up. I also appreciated the added orchestration.
I do have a question: where did the opening glockenspiel come from? I don’t recall hearing it before, but I really like that small touch as an intro!
The glockenspiel is from Brian Wilson Presents SMiLE but the live version (at least Im pretty sure)
Sounds like a snippet from the Steve Desper mix of 'Til I Die
Needs more cowbell.
🌱🙄🌼💙
8:24/8:49 nice
Man the flute is way too loud on Wonderful. Should blend in better.
i fully agree. the new mix wont even have the flute
Maldito UA-cam haz un traductor para comentarios 😩
Ya hay we
SMiLE contains some of the most sublime sounds I’ve ever heard, as well as the most annoying. I will never understand why anyone likes all the weird monster and chewing sounds. My personal mix would completely eliminate those.
Understandable. That's the beauty of Smile. Because it's so interactive and modular, anybody can do whatever they want with it. I'm certainly no Brian expert, but I know that some of that stuff was recorded for a reason. I personally think the chewing sounds on "Vegetables" are novel and integral to the song's silliness and fun. To each their own, I suppose! Thanks for listening :)
comedy
both lyrical and low brow
This is a mess. But hey, it's something one does for fun. Made a couple of them myself..
This one of the best flowing versions I've heard, and I've gone through a lot of them.
Anyway I can get the separated mp3 version of this? Do you have it uploaded anywhere to download?
I haven't considered making a download version as I don't know really how much I should be distributing content that's not really MINE outside of showcasing it on UA-cam. Maybe that's something I could do in the future after I educate myself a bit further. In the meantime, I have new mixes of "Heroes and Villains" and "Wind Chimes" on the channel, if you'd like to hear!
@@JackSProductions98 Thanks, I'll check them out
