Madonna

[3:16am]

Not me skimming this thread and thinking she had performed with Carlos Santana.

Oh my god, same.

 

[Vasilios]

It's 2022 hennies

 

[Dark Ballet]

Said it before and I’ll say it again, I am beyond happy she’s finally treating the discography with respect. The remastering is sooooo good!!

i really wish i had ordered the 6 LP special. is it sold out everywhere?

 

[enhanced CD]

I kinda wish this was the remix they used for Give It 2 Me. Sly & Robbie are legendary and it would've been a nice change of pace

This new collection is so intense and fabulous. And the Pride show was amazing great. So ready for her proving all the haters wrong once again.

 

[electrosamurai]

Full Celebration performance

 

[theincredibleflipper]

Maybe I am a bad fan but I did not know the Music remix from Finally Enough Love before.

I will not be able to live without anymore. It is massive.

 

[SlowGinFizzzz]

She's right and she should say it.

I’ve just had the chance to listen to the remix album and I’m actually not a big fan of the remastering. I’m listening on Airpods Max which in my opinion have fantastic sound, and the bass is far too heavy for these tracks, and the volume too loud I think. The tracks have just been ‘brickwalled’. They sounded better when listening to them using regular speakers, but the bass is ridiculously heavy on headphones. It’s great that they’ve all been brought up to the same volume and sound very ‘punchy’ and loud, but it’s a bit clumsy.

No because Tokischa wanted to **** her.

That is because this isn't really remastered, it's just compressed, boosted and (really) louder. One could do that on Audacity for free.
It works for streaming, I guess. I just wonder how the vinyl will sound...

Full Celebration performance

This actually gave me goosebumps. Santana, Violet, Ganj (!), Jose (!!!). Bob looking over to David at the end. Whew.

 

[DinahLee]

Britney showing some Madge Love (?).



I cackled at "Did you know she has almost as many #1s as The Beatles?? they have 20 and she has 12" like yas queen give that Stan Stats we love ddd.

I assumed the whole set would hit streaming, but this one-disc version is absolutely immaculate. It’s like a cute “What If?” take on her greatest hits, and just a rush the whole way through. Express Yourself bursts to life like I’d never heard it before. Everybody is a super strong opener in this form. Even Like A Prayer which starts a little subdued, really sings by the end in this incarnation.

On iTunes it says the Deluxe version will be released on 19th of August so I imagine it will appear on streaming then too.

 

[Q4Music]

the Thin White Dick remix is basically a dub though, and they went for the edits in this collection.

There is a promo radio edit of it though. And it's familiar to most people because of the Britney/Christina MTV performance. I don't mind the mix they've included, but for me that swap would have made it perfect.

It’s true there’s radio but it’s not that different from the already released “live” version on I’m Going To Tell You A Secret and the live performance was already released on Remixed And Revisited. She probably wanted another mix for that reason.

That’s not really true. Yes volume is up but there’s clarity that was missing from the original.

 

[Sabrettes]

I think they could’ve have brought the clarity without cranking up the volume to nth degree and brickwalking earlier stuff that was much dynamic originally, but that’s probably what she wanted anyway

 

[electrosamurai]

Again the earlier stuff was quieter than the recent stuff, so they needed to turn up the volume. I have really no issues with it, it sounds great.
