Yes yes... On the other hand jean Michel received many and many thanks and messages about the new remastering because the older were sounding to small and so... Very difficult to satisfy everybody and espaclly fans:-) now about "David destroy..." Again we work together and the final validation is Jean Michel and I was totally agree with him with the final remastering sessions with the material we had;-) way to listen music changed, the era has changed, loudness changed...that is impossible to mix and mastered like 30 years ago... The same for the next release...

Hello!
It is interesting what you say, where did JmJ get many thanks from? From Sony? From management? Because not from the majority of fans, I'm sure about this. I accept it's much more difficult to remaster from old tapes. Same happened with Depeche Mode recently, anyway.
So as you say, it is more difficult to master from old tapes. This is why I hope that new album material will be easier to work with! Fresh materil to master...

Mike Oldfield' remasters in 2010 not only produced perfectly, but Mike himself took the effort to provide each studio albums with bonus tracks. Perfect, clear music with no reverbs, errors or powerless music.
Tape research , artist liaison & technical co-ordination by ..... (with thanks to Mike Oldfield)
Stereo remixes of Ommadawn engineered and produced by Mike Oldfield.
Ommadawn released in 1975.
And you can hear, Mike and his team released listener-friendly and for-the-fans remasters.
So I can hardly believe it's all up to old tapes.
