Hawkwind "Doremi Fasol Latido" (Stephen W Tayler 5.1 Mix out in November!)

[DuncanS]

Why are there two similar boxsets on amazon? One on Parlophone, and one on Atomhenge?

The expensive one (Parlophone) is being shipped from a shop based in Cyprus, they're identical otherwise

I’m listening to the 5.1 DTS-HD mix of “Brainstorm” right now and I’m noticing something strange happening in the rear speakers. There seems to be a faint echo of the drum track in each rear speaker that appears to be a second or so behind the beat. It also seems to be happening with the “Body of mine” backing vocals during the chorus, which also have an out-of-sync echo in the rears.

I don’t know if there’s some sort of slap back echo on the original track that’s causing it or if it’s an intentional part of this new mix, but it sure is curious and a bit disorienting. Of course, this is Hawkwind we’re talking about, so it all could be intentional.

Can anyone confirm that they are hearing the same thing?

Greasy Truckers Party mix is fantastic!! Very discrete and in-your-face! I’ve had this on CD since it was released several years back, but this mix takes it to the next level, giving it the sonic heft of Space Ritual. I actually think I prefer this to the Doremi 5.1 mix, but I need to give both another listen before I decide on that.
