Luckily he will be mastering new album as well.

Though.....nevermind..........

You know, at one point I did think that the Monaco 2011 gig sounds quite bassy and loud (compared to some other recordings like 10/10/10).

So he worked for more than ten years in radio? Well that does explain pretty much all about his awful (re)mastering skills honestly. I honestly think he just doesn't know better at this point than what he's actually doing.

Hmmm, and the Maaaster is satisfied with his master.

Wow... It's kinda weird they've changed the title of Chronologie like that to make it more "English"? What next? Oxygen part 4? Equinox 7? :O

Since the "AERO"-compilation they wrote "Chronologie" like "Chronology". It's only strange to me that they change the album name, but it's not a real surprise.

Well, then Arcade was somewhat visionary back in 1993...

Yes, for the tracktitle then. The coverversion was another cup of tea!

The prices of these new remasters seems very cheap in France, it's only 6.95 € on Amazon. I remember I paid 8.45 € for Destination Docklands.

So I pre-ordered Chronology and Waiting for Cousteau, now I have to wait the 5th January.

Zoolook has had the cover changed. The "30th Anniversary Edition" text was removed.

They seem to be available on Spotify already.

Checked out Revolution, Revolutions - it's actually nice that the strings sound a bit more real and clear.

Buried in a bassy Loudness War mess, though.

Ah well.

Chronologie 4 still has the skip-glitch at 2:09. Rendez-Vous sounds very dull compared to the 1986 CD. Chronology is also not an improvement. Haven't listened to the others yet, because I can't be bothered.

[Finaero]

The Swatch beeps seem to start earlier than before in Chronologie 8 and appear to be out of sync. Boh!

[EDIT] Listening to Chronology with headphones on... man, the 1997 remaster sounds like ultra top-notch work compared to this. A shame, a real god-damn shame.
