Finally Enough Love: 50 Number Ones Streaming in June!! (Out August 19th!)

[Aiwa08 10,135]

@RUADJAI At this point, this is a sterile debate. I am talking about getting a continuous analog signal and transforming it into a discrete digital signal with the best result. And the best result means to obtain a digital signal almost identical to the analog signal.

And this debate is eternal because some defend that 44100 is enough, and others defend the idea of “the more sample rate, the better”. And this is the reason why SACD, Blu-ray audio, and hi-res files exist today.

P.S: I'm sorry. English is not my first language and it's really difficult for me to have a technical debate.

Yes. Im surprised you didn't know this already... when she screams before the dance breakdown chorus she's screaming "good boy". 

and dont forget i mean she was "yelping" as far back as Material girl.

Like A Prayer and Express Yourself. The source? Obviously master tapes. Sadly,  I think many remixes were created at CD/DVD quality (oh, those days when the vinyl was almost dead)

EXACTLY, that's why even the most recent remixes needed remastering for the whole compilation to have at least a minimal sonic coherence.

Mike Dean did a good job bringing as much sound bits as he had into the mix, the work he did on some of the early tracks is really impressive.

Regarding this whole spectrogram experts debate, my take is I'd rather wait for the CD in order to hear the tracks fully linked to my good old sound system and speakers (no wifi bluetooth whatever beaming streaming thingy that always adds or takes away a little something to the music even at the higher bitrates, I believe in physical).

I’ll show you versatility when Santino wins a sewing challenge and Visage wears a f**kin turtle neck

Mmm what format you have? ALAC (Apple Lossless, the equivalent of FLAC)? And if so, ripped from CDs or downloaded locally from Apple Music? In any case Apple Lossless should be as good as FLAC but it depends on the original source. For instance, "Like A Virgin", the album, on iTunes and Apple Music is not the best source, so even if its Lossless is going to sound a little bit meh.

Should this thread title be changed to Not Enough Love?

151 kbps is quite compressed. Try to have at least 256 kbps or 320 kbps, at that bitrate it's quite good and similar to CD quality to the human ear (similar, of course CD quality is always going to be better).

As far as I’m aware we have no indication that anything was developed for it. If there was it’s most likely it would have surfaced on this compilation or hopefully on the Ray Of Light reissue

I can't remember where I read about it, but the tracklist was mostly the remixes we had in the singles apart from the ROL Orbit's full version and a longer Frozen mix version.

Probably the full ROL version will finally get a release since she’s mentioned how much she loves it quite a few times

Imagine as like a Disc 2 moment in the ROL reissue. It would be over for us with Ray of Light (10 Minute Version).

I’m sure Ray Of Light will deliver lots of goodies and exclusive material

I know that the Demo Assembly CD leaked here and I know that I may be reaching at this point but wouldn't it be also nice if she can also release it officially too?

I could finally put NLAS on Spotify and get teary-eyed again.

We are off topic but does anyone have insight on this supposed listing for Veronica Electronica?

There's no insight. It's a bootleg. Hence: "This release has been blocked from sale in the marketplace. It is not permitted to sell this item on Discogs."

Audio beyond 44.1kHz is like buying an huge invisible painting and setting aside your biggest room to store it in. "It's there, guys, I swear! And it's beautiful!"

I’m surprised so many people claim they can hear such a difference

You are forgetting two basic things:

a) The main one: the digital signal is more close to the original analog signal at 192000 Hz than 44100 Hz. This is why many people can hear a difference below 20000 Hz (specially in a hi-end stereo system).

b) Although you can't hear the music, you still can feel the sound vibrations through your body.

Wow, this really got off topic. Let's bring it back though...

Your Honesty is lossy as fuck.

"You Can Dance" Single Edits did, as a whole. That's why "Everybody", "Physical Attraction" and "Into The Groove", on their You Can Dance edits, are included on this compilation, representing that #1.

All the tracks from "You Can Dance" were #1 as a whole.

No, it was edits of all the tracks, so that's why the whole album was considered #1:
