Release will be at the 25.April 2014. Do you think it´s the same ?
Maybe ???

No, the performance in Lint was because of the 30th anniversary of the album Oxygene, just like it said in the article.

Help me out guys, why would I want these remastered albums?

I doubt anything new would on these albums.

There's a chance they're better than the 1997 remasters which were absymal.

Because the existing CD remasters from Sony etc. appearently sounds like crap. They didn't do a very good job.
But mostly it's important for new listners to be invited to the world of Jean Michel Jarre sounds with the best possible sound quality (we hopes).

Hopefully an ever so slightly equalization and corrected the volume and call it a day. The 1997 remasters are so-so for most concert albums and pretty much every studio album is horrid. I do hope some unreleased and/or alternate mixes make their way in. It's not like Zoolook and Zoolookologie have three different mixes (original release, remix release and remasterd release) and they could easily fit on one disc. Hell put the extended remix's on the disc while your at it!

I never bought the remastered albums in 1997. I have the original ones and those are fine for me. I will stick with that for now.
If new tracks emerge, I will reconsider. But buying everything because of a different cover or 10 seconds extra music.... not for me.
Thanks though!

For many years, I stuck with the 1997 remasters and didn't really care for the others. Of course, then I started collecting vinyls and, well, haven't really looked back at the 1997s ever since. But yeah, I'm probably gonna skip out on these new remasters unless they have real true extra stuff in them.

There's one thing that the 1997 remasters got right and I hope they will get it right (or better) this time as well. And that is including the proper 4:14 version of Zoolookologie on Zoolook. But we're just gonna have to wait and see.

Actually the original (CD) release was 4:21, the remastered featured yet another remix of both Zoolook and Zoolookologie. I still wonder which version will end up on the new release: the original, the remix, the remastered remix or yet another remix...

[EDIT] Yeah, the 4:10-4:30 version's the one I'm referring to. Sounds a lot nicer than the remix version, even though the Extended Mix (which is based on the remix) is also quite good, to be honest. :]

A new link for the pic:

The waveform look excellent, only problem is rather is this the before or after picture!

What happens when the label starts massproducing CD's?
Will waveforms stay the same through the whole process to the finished product?
