With the bass pumping and the highs clear… Now that we have hi-res streaming, does that mean people will be incentivized to purchase better playback systems? No, unless listening becomes fetishized, like vinyl. But how many people have the equipment to reproduce this sound? And let’s be clear, it’s something you feel as well as hear, you’re in the sound, and that’s an experience that’s familiar to us from the seventies that today’s generations may be completely unaware of. And I must say, the sound was impressive. Then again, how are people listening to these records, if you’re using earbuds, does it make a difference?Īnd I fired up the big rig solely because it has the only CD player I possess. Like the cowbell in “Taxman” I heard just now. What I mean is certain instruments are emphasized beyond the original in the stereo remix. Alas, this is not a problem with “Revolver.”Īnd the mono CD doesn’t sound as big as Giles’s remix, but it’s totally faithful. I was stunned, because I find every other remix in this series sacrilegious, execrable, I believe they should all be destroyed, for fear they will become the standard in the future. For the first time in his history of remixing the Beatles, Giles Martin has come up with a final version very similar to the original product.
