I noticed it the most on “light up my body.” She doesn’t do that growl. It’s 100% a different track. Ah yes - good spot! 100% has new vocal takes, I thought I was going crazy at first Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Evans 8,901 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 I'm using a dongle to use good headphones and also had it be lossless quality under Music settings- it's a whole new experience Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
 Mother of Puppies 34,254 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 I don't have Apple Music.  can't u guys upload it to YouTube or somewhere else... ?  And the most important question is: What does it all mean?

Reginald 13,681 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 I don't have or intend to get Apple Music, but I'll hunt for the files if needed: Does this version have better mastering than the CD? And, how does it compare to the vinyl? My only gripe about Chromatica is that the instruments aren't dynamic enough bc of overcompression, especially the kick drums.

vpez 1,250 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 why does she do that do that do that to us? (spotify/ android users) trust is like a mirror, you can fix it if it's broken but you can still see the crack in that ************s reflection.

StarstruckIllusion 41,978 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 It’s like they remastered every single song and added new little sounds and instrumentals (while gaming away some other slaps) this is so crazy - it’s like hearing the album for the first time all over again. I might just get AirPods now tbh… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t say “better” necessarily, just a different listening experience - but that’s only my opinion On tracks like Alice, the backing vocals are louder and the Kick and Snare are more prominent than in the original Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free woman sounds the most different to me. Most of the vocals sound like new takes. Her backing vocals on “I say that I want it” are completely gone (which I think is a downgrade) but there are some new sounds on the drop that I like.  Fortunately we can still listen to the OG version too.

Papergangstuh 2,534 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 I feel like Apple got the wrong files or something. Some parts are great but it’s way too demo sounding to be legit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HausOfAntonio 7,822 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 I’m definitely not hearing as much difference as some people in this thread  Could it be that everyone is just paying more attention to the tracks and noticing things they hadn’t before?
