I know that and actually I wanted to mention it.

I'm not against of remastering old tracks as long as they're close to the original masters (and improved). The use of multi-tracks is usually done to create multi-channel audio like making a dolby atmos mix and rarely for stereo mixes. Normally they use an unmastered mix but in Madonna's case, for some reason, they always choose the mastered tracks. And this is quite problematic because the sound is essentially being distorted.

Only if it was made by the producer or Madonna. Video edits are usually happen from the director. If it's a combination of both is fine for me (and if the audio exists out of the video itself in the vaults).

Song No. 3

We might get it on the Like a Prayer anniversary which is in March. Hope so.

I can a see with my crystal ball that Material Girl seems more likely to be released. No sign of Keep It Together yet. 🔮 😜

I smell Material Girl is on the way. Sniff sniff, hmm... smells like a new fresh transfer. I bet it's remastered. 😜😂

Double post

I think it has to do with the original master, I guess Frozen and Nothing Really Matters were shot in 25 fps and probably have PAL masters that are slightly higher in resolution than NTSC masters.

There's something wrong with the frames. The 10 yo+ master someone posted a few months ago was fine. Edit: Anyway, it seems it's just because that master was de-interlaced, 30fps and the remaster is 24fps

I'm not saying I don't agree but I get what you mean. 👍

They're simply different cause they were sending them the fade points to do it themselves instead of waiting longer to get the actual ones. So I don't count those and actually when the internet became a thing they stopped doing it locally.

The most closer release we can imagine being like is those new Cher expanded editions. Though non of them have any dvd or anything rare.

I think it might be coming as it looks like it. 😜

Might be the long duration of a remix that breaks the rules, like 10 minutes plus, that's another reason that they placed the releases into the albums section. https://support.tunecore.com/hc/en-us/articles/115006689928-What-is-the-difference-between-a-Single-an-EP-and-an-Album-

It's the requirements of each store. You can't choose if it's an album, EP or single by yourself. They have an algorithm to check the song titles and versions and then they placed the release to the right category.

This actually happens automatically and the reason it appears in the album section is the b-side and not the long list of remixes, altogether. If it was the song and the remixes or the song and a b-side or two, it would automatically go into the singles section. But it seems they can easily fix that as they're closer partners with Apple.

Happy to see all the singles form the album there. It seems next year will be the end of the digital reissues. Hope the expanded editions are on the way. 🤞

I whoud like if they originally split tracks as they were cd maxi/singles using alternative covers and maybe keep the remixes in volumes so they don't have to fix them every time moving them from albums to singles. By putting everything on a single release with b-sides and other remixes of songs, the release automatically becomes an album of tracks regardless of the title.. But well. 😛

I love your designs! Just beautiful!

I guess it was too expensive for Rhino to curate. Instead we're gonna get regular vinyl reimagined and designed by Aldo. 😜

If I remember correctly, Rhino (or Madonna) complained about it on Twitter.
