My copy arrived today, so I plan on doing an extensive comparison this weekend. While I had initially planned on passing on this set of reissues, I have to tip my hat to clone, by releasing it at the end of the year I had some spare xmas money to throw their way. I'm sure I'll continue to take the

I have the CD atm and just waiting on the vinyl to be delivered. I haven't had a good chance to _really_ listen to the tracks, but from my quick listen, the mastering is real good trying to find the right word, but definitely adds 'brightness' to the tracks... definitely as you say, crisp. -

First impressions of this are that it's definitely sounding pretty different from the original releases, I think AT has done a nice job and it's a good thing he didn't try to recreate the original sound. The mastering is a lot more clear and crisp, and a lot less distorted than on the origi

I know Alden has done alot of mastering for a bunch of Clone releases and obviously his own works, and IMO, they have always sounded great. I would hazard a guess that he is a Drexciya fan and would have treated the project with the respect it deserves. My copy is likely flying across the Atlantic

As Marsel says, it'll depend on what Alden Tyrell has done in his mastering process, and if it's to your taste. Mastering techniques have definitely come a long way since some of this stuff was released originally but not everyone will agree that they've got better. He's normally a really g

well, mastering is meant to have it sound better :-) but it's always personal judgement if it does of course and can depend on which system the music is played after (home headphones vs 100k stadium) Op 7-12-2011 10:45, Placid schreef: all re-mastered - A quick question. Does remaster
