Back catologue in 5.1 / DTS

[Jan]

You know what they do with remasters, don't you?
that -->
but you probably know that already...

Reminds me that on the chatroom during the broadcast some people demanded a remaster of STITI... but that album actually is their best mastered album. If it's too quiet, just turn the volume up... or better use something like Replay Gain on all your music files. I can't stand the thought of using my MP3 player without RG.

Then again, 5.1 and SACD remasters are usually not overcompressed.

However, UW are not at a point in their career where they need remasters. It's always a sign of desperation when established bands throw unnecessary remasters on the market to rip off their fans. Of course, with that I don't mean purposeful remasters, but nothing that UW have put out sounds bad.

First step in that kind of direction should be releasing everything that is available on analog mediums only on digital mediums. Like all the music videos on one DVD, the Lemon Interupt and The Hump / ME tracks on CD... Although that probably won't happen.
