Thank the maker that they still put out CDs, WttOS never got one, officially.

great I received mine but for the moment find nothing on the link provided yet to obtain the special digital versions

That link will probably be online tomorrow.
Spotify Australia has got it already.

But the video's don't work yet.

Mine copy arrives tomorrow.

It's on Spotify and the youtube videos seem to work now.... Exciting! But, they are not on JMJ's own channel yet.

BFMTV will have a small item on Amazonia on their 22h show apparently.

So the 5.1 download is a WAV file this time.

And the binaural too.

no tracks by tracks files, a shame really.
Also you may have noticed that the binaural version, which can be found in streaming or for purchase on some sites, offers part 9 with about 9 seconds longer than the stereo mix

Just finished listening to it - first impression is, as I feared, it is EON with new FX added.

Although Part 9 is rather nice.

Yes, part 9, around 4:00, reminds me of Ethnicolor 2. There's some minipops sounds throughout the album.

What do you mean about "minipops" ?

E.g. in part 2 left channel... One of JMJ's main drum-rhythm synths since the beginnings. A previous example: Robots Don't Cry from Equinoxe Infinity.

In part 7 Laura Palmer's Theme recalled for me.

My summary: eon "toolbox"'s generated sound, as we expected, with minimal effort, for background listening (as it is intended), with added loud bass drums and too much Oxygene Part 20 campfire. We forget this "project" immediately without any impression.
