I am currently listening to Chronology and I also have the 1997 version.

Well, I discovered a glitch in Chronology 4. It is not so audible than the one in Rendez-vous but I noticed it immediatly (Chronologie is my prefered album).

Feel free to compare by yourself. On the 2015 version it seems a cut was not done properly.

So again they (David Perreau, JMJ, Sony music mastering engineers) did not listen carefully the final version.

My final word for JMJ or his staff: Jean Michel you are loosing what's left of your fans !

You know, cisac, neverending new album, aerotoys, keeping the perfectionism status...

OK, he didn't get time supervising the remasters, so what? :roll:

Listened to Revolutions. Besides some background artifacts in some places this one sounds fine to me. But this one was always fine.

If they're going to fix mistakes, maybe it will be nice to collect the list of all known problems and send it to them.

Revolutions, Revolution sounds like it's recorded in a tunnel, though.

I don´t bought this remixes, but maybe there was meant "Katze Schrödinger Studio". They make sound-designs and special mixes. :)

The fact that you can see that the audio is way too loud and Jarre sitting there praising his remastering is still one of the most ridiculous things I've seen in a long time. It's absolutely ridiculous...

True and I agree with that depending on the genre. And Jarre's music doesn't fit in those types of genre's.

In the other topic (Best editions) I recognised six (postedy persona fourl favorite's though) by ear and ear only. And the easiest ones were the remastered ones soly by how overstated the bass was in the '97 remastering and the amount of clipping on the 2013/14 remastering.
I respect the man for everything he has done and will respect that for the rest of my life. And I love his music to no end. It's done a lot for me in the past few years to get me through one hell of a rough time, and I think the music deserves much more than it had gotten in the, almost, last two decades.

The fact that I criticize these remasters is not out of any negative reason. The reason I do so is because out of the deepest respect for the source material. And I just find it an absolute waste that the guy who was so forth going in technological advances and jumped onto ever possibility too try to create never before heard sounds whever something new was created, is taking such huge steps back when his work can sound better than it ever did with all the technological advances all the hardware had made.
