One Atmos to rule them all
Steven Wilson was interviewed by Australian outfit Noise11, and he spoke, among other things, about the motivation behind the yet another remix of Made in Japan:
Thanks to Amit for the heads-up.

Unauthorized copying, while sometimes necessary, is never as good as the real thing
At least we now know something that many predicted and of course it wasn’t hard to do. The classic Black Sabbath holy or unholy trinity of albums master tapes are no more to be found. Makes us wonder if their old manager from that era would know where they are. Changing subject matter and Steve Wilson, who I have respect for as a musician etc and myself being a Porcupine Tree aficionado, seems to be using the ‘amazing’ word a lot these days. That Atmos is to blame. Between Steve and Rick Beato, there could be a prize on offer as to who uses that word the most. I suppose I had better mention Deep Purple and Made in Japan. Now I have forgotten what I was going to say about it. Cheers.

Well, Dolby Atmos is something new to me. I use Tidal and enjoy Dolly Atmos. Then, sad to hear that the Tidal version of Highway Star is not Dolby Atmos. Hopefully when the album is released it will be Dolby Atmos. I see few reasons to by the box though, as I will need to buy a new bluray player and a Dolby Atmos enabled receiver – just to get the sound to my headset. To get the Dolby Atmos experience in the room I have to by a new set of speakers as well. Well, probably good for future generations! 🙂

July 30th, 2025 at 11:31I have always loved that album, and the two songs that have been presented are very very promising for the rest of the album 🥰
The original was good enough for me when I bought it in 1973..and its still good enough for me..and I dont care what anyone thinks!! LOL!!
