Hmmm... Would Jarre realle be so cheap to Rip the vinyl record..? I personally doubt it, but that's just me

That specific track either came from the vinyl or the master is damaged, because there are defects in the audio.

Being an audio dummie, I'm just curious. How do you notice/confirm/know such a thing?

I noticed a lot of more details in Hypnose, which is good. Deserted Palace does sound a bit... strange.

And I must say, the Erosmachine remix is quite alright

I'll wait for the official release - you'd think people would wait for a few weeks before posting ...

Idiotic step to upload any song BEFORE the official release....bahhh.
Still didn't listen to HIASS. I will, by cd.

I will support JMJ by word, deed - and my money. If someone doesn't want to pay - don't play. With legal downloads there is no excuse - download what track(s) you like, leave the rest.
BTW, I have the original Rarities bootlegs - it was the only way to get the rare tracks, now they're soon to be legally available I will buy the CD set, and I like the idea of Studio Masters, so I will burn a DVD-A to play those in High Resolution audio - can't wait !

Jarre UK Pre-Order

I now have 2 copies on order. One through the Jarre UK link and one with Amazon. I would have cancelled the Amazon order, but I'm worried I might wear the first copy out.
